MIMI

You should have it

Dan

I do - thank you!

 

[tikimimi]

If you look in the way back you will see Mimi & Mack also!!!!

Hey Joanne - Funny you should say this... Based on where we were seated in relation to this table in all rotations, I tried to find us through the hole or whatever at that next table too. It is possible Mack is the one in the orange shirt, but the night he wore that, I wore a blue DCL shirt - I am not in that where you can see me. I did sit across from Mack the night he wore his orange shirt. If Mack is the one barely visible in the Hawaiian shirt, then I should be next to him - and I am not. Interesting trying to figure that out.

One other interesting tidbit - the person identified as the original Mary Poppins... is she supposed to be the Mary Poppins that sang on board? That Mary Poppins I had my picture taken with - she had long hair. This girl does not. What's up with that?

i have nightmares that all the ladies on the cruise will be wearing red dresses, with pancakes on there heads, drinking strawberry smoothies, while holding pillows, and all get together on deck 10 to push underdog overboard.

My strawberry smoothie will be of the daquari brand!!

I've saved this quote Dawg. You're in so much trouble now. I plan on using it every time your "girlfriend" even mentions the word "Tuna".



You're easy to forget.



Too funny Mel. I did the same thing. Which one did you keep?



I think Chuck and I fell in love with Disney together. I've been there 4 more times than he has but it wasn't until we went together when Tony was only 2 that we fell in love with all things Disney.



Rose, they all made me laugh and even think about some dear friends. Ahem, #4 Dawg???

Walt and I both love Disney very much. I don't know who likes it better. Di

 

[JOANNEL]

He is having a rough time right now. He has another MRI scheduled next week. Hopefully it will show some improvement. The last one (3 months ago)he had showed that the bloodvessels in his brain are about 1/2 the size that they were the year before. He has not had a TIA lately so that is a good thing. He is continuing to work and coach so he is not letting it get him down. He is assistant coach for the baseball team this year. They have been conditioning and start practice in Feb. Games start in March. We are both looking forward to the cruise. We will need it!

Hope all goes well, give him some hugs and well wishes rom us!!

 

[JOANNEL]

Thanks! He has Lupus and has struggled but it is amazing how much better he feels on the cruise and WDW. It has to be the pixie dust.

It's those disney crocks...... tell him to wear the to football practice

Your right the girl who sang has d long hair, a wig maybe?

Ok, gang….I need some help thinking through my post-cruise travel plans.

I am debating whether or not to stay overnight after the cruise on the 31st and do MNSSHP. I kind of need to figure it out soon to watch for flights.

The pro’s:

-Obviously, getting to do MNSSHP, riding all the rides, seeing the park all decorated, fireworks, etc.



The con’s:

-Logistics-I am planning to reserve ground transportation to and from port for the whole family (all 10-11 of us) and if they do not want to stay the extra night I need to figure out additional transportation to the “world”.

-If the rest of the family DOES want to stay, I will have to coordinate that part of the trip for everyone also, arrange for tickets, book hotels, and so forth.

-This would be Thomas’s first time seeing the Magic Kingdom – and it would be fairly late in the day. Would it be too overwhelming? I am worried he’d be too tired or overexcited to enjoy it.

Any thoughts?

Just adding to the chorus of "stay"!!! We are planning to go to MNSSHP after we disembark. We stayed one night before our May cruise (no parks, just the Boardwalk and Beaches N Cream). We want to stay and play one night after this time. Perfect timing to do MNNSHP on Halloween! No extra days off school, either, for us!

 

[JOANNEL]

Good night all,

After a long day at work and step class I am going to bed.

Have a good one!! Keep warm up there, I will think about you all when I walk at lunch time tomorrow, today it was very humid and foggy.

 

[Walt & Di]

Wow nice pictures Cheryl. love the Nativity scene. Diane

 

[tikimimi]

I don't think so - we saw her in the hall late one night on our way back into the club. She stopped to do the picture. Turned out we both went back in the club - she was sitting behind us. She was in a sundress but dressed down - I don't think she had a wig on. She had the front pulled back with a ribbon or head band but it pulled the hair near her face pretty tightly - I would think we'd have been able to tell if it were a wig. Weird - but again interesting. Our rotation was PC, T,T,AP - right? We are trying to figure out of that is really Mack.

 

[Walt & Di]

And now some with us in the pictures too. We actually have quite a few with all 3 of us this trip, usually it is much harded to get Al in the pictures with Rach and I.

Pictures of family are great. Rachel is sure pretty. The lights look beautiful. Walt and I will have to see them some day. Diane

They don't live far from Kohl's. I think they shop at the Shaw's right next door. My sister and I went to the Dunkin Donuts there last week to get Elaine some coffee one night.

Yeah I finally know the back way from their house to the mall to avoid the toll as well!

I'll think of you whenever we go that way, although I don't think we have very many hockey games left in Gorham this season.

We are now, 3 for 3, Lina just took her temp and it is 101*

No babysitting for her for the next few days.

Hazel just went out of the house today for the first time since New Year's Eve.

We have a wintry mix of sn*w/sleet/freezing rain starting tomorrow afternoon into Wednesday morning.......then changing to all rain later Wednesday morning......

Boy you guys have had a miserable time of it. So sorry.

i have nightmares that all the ladies on the cruise will be wearing red dresses, with pancakes on there heads, drinking strawberry smoothies, while holding pillows, and all get together on deck 10 to push underdog overboard.

Close but mine might be pina coladas & we'd never throw an underdog overboard!

We saw all 3 of them in the lobby the day we got off the ship. They all looked terrible! No make up, grungy clothes - the only way I knew it was them was by listening to the conversation & recognizing the piano player.

Heres out little tree from the hotel room - Ellis decorated it all by himself, hence it looks the way it does

Look near the top of it though - my latest Bob ornament!

Pretty nice tree Ellis. Di

 

[Walt & Di]

I am back from dinner and a quick trip to Walmart to get some things. I guess there is a huge storm coming tomorrow. I got the last gallon of 1% milk! When i questioned it the walmart associate told me about the storm coming not Wednesday but tomorrow. We have to drive to Massachusetts tomorrow afternoon! I am sure we will be fine, but Mass drivers are psycho! (looks around the DIS to see if there are any Mass BOBERs...I don't think there are!)

So now I am sitting here waiting for my local on the 8's.

Did you forget Di is from Mass and a very good driver

Did the Mary Poppins one - Ashley Brown - have long hair? She does in her web shots on different sites.

that dinosaur restaurant looks cool. Where is it located? my grandkids would love it. The windows are very nice too. Diane

Jumping in with the answer: T-Rex is a new restaurant in the Downtown Disney / Disney Marketplace (WDW) It is FABULOUS! We also went there in December and loved it!

They also have a Build-a-Dino section in the restaurant shop. Megan and Sarah both made one. (They get to help stuff the stuffed animals.) That's how we acquired Ptery and Patty (to join the dozen or so Build-a-Bear animals that we already had!)

The restaurant is very fun for everyone. We ate in the "Ice Cave" area.

 

[tikimimi]

G'night everyone! I am headed to dream land.

 

[Walt & Di]

Nice pics of the Christmas decorations at DL also!!!

Double Ditto. Great Photos Jen. Di

 

[Walt & Di]

I put together a couple of videos very very quickly, so the timing might be off a bit. BUT, if you are interested, here they are on YouTube:

Days 1 - 2
Days 3 - 5​

ENJOY! ​

Looks like everyone had fun. Thanks for sharing. Diane
