10/24/2009 Bash on the Boat (I'm with B.O.B.) Thread #21!

I sure hope so. It's to bad y'all weren't here last week. The cherry blossoms were gorgeous and so was the weather!

That is on Suz' "bucket list". We will get there one year.

Suz said as long as it is dry, she'll be fine. It will still be 10-15 degrees warmer than here, even if it doesn't get back to normal. However, I think a warming trend will come in around then. This is just too long for being below average.

We have an inside pool though at our hotel, so we can still swim.

Well, y'all, I have to get going. We're going to the Easter Vigil mass tonight--8pm. When I get home, I want to bake a cake for tomorrow and get the eggs dyed, and baskets filled, so I will check back in since I should have a relatively quiet late night.....

I believe I will be around the board this evening. Hope to see you then.

I have to leave ... forgot some stuff at the grocery store and I'm going to go now before I get too lazy. If that's even possible because I'm already so lazy that I've created a perfectly curved butt-groove in the sofa.

Have a great holiday! I lurve you guys!

g'night ladies Happy Easter to both of you.

Thanks for stopping by B. Please come back again sometime.

Oh, and while you're at the store, we need some skim milk that we forgot when we went earlier. Thanks.

Gotta take a little break myself kids. Chuck is futzing around with fixing the gas grill and I don't want him out there alone. He just came in asking for a lighter!!

Gas always scares me. Gas grills are the limit of my playing with gas.

I'm out too. Need to get that milk for Suz. She's making something for the Easter breakfast at church.

I'll be back on tonight when we're watching a movie. Not sure if it will be HSM3 or what. Watched "Flash of Genius" last night - surprisingly good. The other one we may watch tonight is "What Just Happened" with De Niro.

Later kids.

doing mass in the morning here. Easter vigil is just too long for these boys..

Sitting here watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang will L colors the Easter eggs.

Just boiled eggs here, even though the boys are 20 & 23 they still enjoy it, or at least fake it for mom.

 

[JOANNEL]

I guess I scared every one off. The boys are putting the drum set together

I think Heather does the RCCL too. I did see a few RCCL specials on the Travel Channel and those ships look amazing!

We've also done RCCL on the Mariner and would sail her again any time. We thoroughly enjoyed it. There are things we like about each line we've been on and things we like better on each line. I think a lot depends on timing and of course, what you want out of your trip.

Happy Easter Everyone!

I want to try Carnival once just to try it. Our first cruise was on RCCL, but was on their smallest ship...a very small one at that. I would also like to try one of their larger ships to see what the experience is like.

I think after this cruise, we are going to go to WDW for a nice long vacation...at least 7 days.

Our first cruise ever was on Carnival. We heard horror stories about what we would experience, but we didn't experience any of it. We had a great time. Now it wasn't as nice as Disney, but could that have had something to do with the fact it was an older ship? I think so - but I also think it serves a different market just like RCCL does. Again - we have had a good time on each line we've sailed, and there is at least one thing on each line we like over the others. Attitude has a lot to do with it!

At lunch today I was telling Suz about the eggs my dad hand painted himself when Chuck and I got married. These are real egg shells. He poked holes in the top and bottom and blew out the contents without breaking any of the shells. Then he would paint them. Here are mine:

Both of our kids also have their own too. Too bad my dad didn't pass his talents onto his daughter. I couldn't draw a straight line even if I had a ruler!

Cass, I love your doggies. When we would get Sadie (golden retriever) shaved whe would be so embarrased! It cracked us up how she would act.

How did she act Lori????

Awww. Cute poochie...pathetic, but cute. Won't he be cold in that snow?

No more snow here From here on in, it's all rain

I did an hour wii fit today

My "wii fitness coach" arrived this morning too. Apparantly it takes about 30 minutes to set up, so I havent had time yet, but I'll let you all know how I get on

Its got really good reviews

Great job Karen!!!!

Cass: Love the poochie pics! BTW...I'm still on the camera hunt. I stopped at a camera shop today and asked for advice on my Olympus. Looks like there is nothing I can do to speed up the horrible shutter lag except to buy an SLR. I'm looking at the Nikon D-60 but it's pricey and BIG!!! Other one's I'm looking at are the smaller Sony Cyber Shot W220 and the Canon Powershot SD79015. I'm soooo undecided!!

We own the Powershot and hopefully we will be buying the new one out before we leave for Florida

Jeff do you know how far the Two Palms webcam is from Port Canaveral?

It's quite a bit down from Jetty park if I remember correctly. After the ship sails away, it's about 5 minutes later that you can see her sail past the Two Palms cam.

The nice thing about DVD is how clear they are on the screen. Really nice on the big screen.

You should see them on blu-ray We just bought Pinocchio on BR and wow wow wow!!

I heard the Wonde repo will be in Jan or Feb. Suz already said she'd pull DS out of school for the two weeks. I'm hoping they will have some good deals since most people won't be pulling their kids out for that cruise. Kind of like the repo you're on.

I read that it will be in the first quarter, no one knows for sure which month.

I've been wanting to go on a PC repo since the very first one, so I am going to try my hardest to get us on that sailing Kira will be a good age for it and it won't be in Rob's busy DJ season, so I am really hoping to go

I hope the prices are reasonable since a lot of people will be saving their pennies for the Dream. I want to sail on the Dream too but not until all the kinks have been worked out
