A work friend of Neils and his family are going to Florida the same time as us.

Neil was asking if they had everything sorted - they havent started yet!

They are coming round on the evening of the 23rd for a planning session and takeout curry

I have already sent them about 20 links to various things, and so far I have 38 points on my "must remember to tell them" list

They'll be here a while!

I have a cruise/tag question, was it ever decided if we were going to limit the number of people playing tag? I'm just wondering so that I make sure I make enough tag gifts

Well, good morning peeps

I survived the reunion!

I got there early as I didnt want to walk into a room full of people. I met my friend outside and we went in together. There were only 3 other people there when we got there, 2 of them gave me big hugs and said I hadnt changed a bit (liars) and one was the person I did not want to associate with so I ignored him and I think he got the message, because he didnt approach me all night after that. Loads of people arrived after and we all had a great time. I didnt leave til 1am! A few of us are hoping to meet up and keep in touch, so I'm glad I went... thanks to you all for helping me decide to go

One lady bought some really old photos - I have a big perm and huge shoulder pads

So glad you had such a good time, Karen!!!

We limited it to 30 max I think. Also the cut off date for people joining is July 4th so we know how many to make etc.

So glad you had such a good time, Karen!!!

Thanks Mimi, it was a lot of fun. Like you said, everyone was older, fatter and wrinklier... I wasnt the only one that had aged

I'm glad you all persuaded me to go

Did the other family you helped go yet? I love helping people plan trips to Disney!

I think we're up to about 23 so far, but some of those people havent posted in a while. I will do an up to date list on July 4th and post it here so people can confirm they are playing. I'll then pm people who dont post often to see if they still want to play so we have a final list.

 

[Karen Mouse]

Sounds like a good idea that way we'll know for sure. Thanks for doing this Karen

Geez...

It's Saturday night...where the heck is everyone?

It was a great day today. Graduation was very nice, perfect weather...great for pics, which I wll post tomorrow when we get home. We'll probably be home around noon tomorrow.

The strangest thing happened today...

Before the ceremony, all of the graduates gathered in the hall to sign in. As we were standing there, one of the guys said hi to me and we started talking. We were both receiving the same degree, so I asked him what his name was. (With online classes, you learn names of classmates, but there are obviously no faces to go with that name.) We realized that we were in several classes together and continued to talk. It was then time to line up.

We were instructed to line up in pairs so he & I paired up. In the meantime, Mike was in The Drugin Center, where the ceremony was to take place. He was talking to the person sitting next to him while he waited for the ceremony to start.

As we entered the room, Mike was looking for me and taking pics...he noticed that the woman he had been talking to had her camera pointed in the same direction. He asked her..."Is that your husband in the glasses?" She said, "Yes". Mike said, "Well, that my wife walking next to him". They both started laughing.

It was so weird that amongst all of the graduates I was with, I chose to talk to this guy and amongst all of the family members in the auditorium, that his wife would sit next to Mike. After we did the processional and sat down, I noticed she and Mike were doing a lot of laughing. Then I noticed that she got up and came over to take a pic of us. (We were in the front row.) I asked the guy..."Is that your wife"? He said, "Yes". I said, Well, that's my husband sitting next to him. He was dumbfounded.

There's more!!!

You'll never guess what he does for a living.

He's the Master Chef for the Magic Kingdom. He's been with the company for more than 25 years. Weird!!! huh?

He said that when we come down in Oct to call him and he'll get us in the park.

Isn't that a great day!!!

Wow, what a neat story!

Congratulations, Robin!!!
