Yup, free for the parks, including MNSSHP, free at buffets and only have to pay taxes (about $250) for her on the cruise

Yes, I will be doing another trippie this time but it won't be live. I am super excited about this trip (this one more than any previous one!) so I may start a Pre-Trip report in the next month or so

Wow! - free for the cruise too - thats excellent

You just wait til you have to go in school holiday time - the price doubles

I plan on taking her out of school as long as I can

 

[GOS]

We all feel the same. Dont worry - its the thought that counts and the fun of playing.

Maybe pack a small holdall in your suitcase just incase! - it can be a carry on on the plane then

Also, dont forget - there might be edible things too, so they'll only take up room in your stomach

And no nuts...cause of Ellis's allergy.

 

[Karen Mouse]

Gotta go, Neil wantsto use the pc

No need to apologize Karen, my goal is to only have one Googley when we leave He's a loner, that's how he rolls

Ahhhh, thank you for remembering

Wrong Sir,i took part last time and am under more pressure than ever to deliver this time,you Sir have a valid excuse having not played before alas we don't have that luxury,It's deliver or walk the plank for me this time....

PS...Have you given any thought to Tea-towels?....

What a good idea...didn't think of this one.

Or perhaps....http://www.asda-photo.co.uk/album/g...bjFXej5onQ78uB5vmUipwv,nYZePvIlE,nkyNGScZrQ--

Hi Everyone,

It has been awhile since I've been on. Life has been busy!

Karen, we'd still like to play tag!!! The kids are really looking forward to it ... okay, and so am I I'm not sure what room we are yet. We've got the GTY thing going. I'm not sure what point they will let us know, but as soon as I know I'll PM you. One of these days I'll try and get a picture sent to Cass with all of our info too.

Hope that everyone is doing well!!!!

Dianne

Hiya Dianne. Good to see you're still cruising with us.

Just copied this off the normal cruise thread -

"We prefer Sapphire Beach Club over Megan's Bay. No doubt Megan's Bay is beautiful but the we saw some shady characters lurking behind trees looking over everyone's belongings when we were taking a walk down the beach. Also the process for renting chairs at Megans Bay is crazy.

You have to go to a garage type building to rent chairs, but first you must go to the gift shop office and pay for them and leave a deposit (what tourist is going to steal a chair from the beach), then go to the garage to pick up your chairs, then drag them to wear you want to set them up. At the end of a hot day you now must drag your chairs back to the garage and then walk back to the gift shop to pick up your deposit. Not what I want to do on vacation.

For Sapphire Beach we just take a taxi there where there is a beautiful beach, chairs are already set up, there is a inground pool a ways down the beach, a restaurant and gift shop on site. There are iguanas walking around. We just found it an easier day at the beach. We told our taxi driver what time we wanted to be picked up and he was there to get us."

Anyone been to Sapphire beach?

Megan's Bay was lovely. We went on a Disney Excursion and didn't have to drag the chairs back. I have heard that Sapphire Beach is lovely though Karen.

DISTAG LIST

The above list is now complete.

I have pm'd those 3 players who no longer post, but as yet had no reply, so our current total stands at 23 players, so go ahead and start thinking of your gifts!

Our cut off date to join is July 4th, so any new people joining the thread still have time to play. Our maximum players is 30 so we still have room for 7 more to join in.

People- remember to pm me with your room numbers... if you dont I'll put my cabin nmber in its place and "swipe" all your gifts as well as my own

I have included childrens names and ages on the sheet (but only the ones I have been told). If you want the children included just pm me their names and I'll add them on.

Cass - could you please update your list on the Bob site please

How do you want to get the tag sheet? I can make a table on word and post it here for you to print, or on the Bob site, or I can bring 30 sheets with me and hand them out at the terminal/sailaway meet? - opinions please.

It was decided to TAG about 4 or 5 players a day, by the end of day 5 or start of day 6 go ahead and complete the rest, so people can prepare and pack their goodies.

I hope this all makes sense!

Any alterations, suggestions welcome! Mama Goose did this last year, so I'm a newbie at organising - please give me a shove in the right direction if I've gone astray!

Happy tagging everybody!

We'll go with the flow Karen.

Sorry Laurie, that looks a little outdated. No one uses the Yahoo site anymore except for three of us in an exercise challenge. Cass' site is sooooo much better. Just click on the BOB logo in my siggie line and it'll take you there.

Good, because I was thinking of Cass' site, although I didn't think we could add anything there.

Can we somehow get lists that will mix us all up? If we all follow the same list 5 of us will be done in one day if we are following from the top to the bottom. Karen, I can help with this if you want me to.

Unless....we are following the KK cruise rules and starting with the person listed below you on the list. This might be easier than to make up different lists.



BOBers, when checking over this list, please be sure names are spelled correctly. (Karen, I believe Dee73 is Dianne). I know someone who is personalizing their gifties.

What happens in the case of multiple kids, etc? Is this one item per cabin/family, etc or can it be something small but one thing for each kid, etc? Are the gifts supposed to be the same for each person on the list? And, do I need to bring some sort of bag/hanger/etc for outside the cabin door?






Laurie, if I got post 2500 I would give myself 5 googleys! 2 for the 500 and 3 for the 2000.



No doubt.

And, I like your googley math!

We will borrow brother's car to drive in. They are playing the Texas Rangers. What a game we will get to see. Then on Monday off to brother's house in New Hampshire. Tuesday we leave to go to California until Friday. Granddaughter is graduating from high school. We are flying there from Manchester, New Hampshire to Ontario, California. We haven't seen grandkids in four years. We are very excited to see them. Diane

Sounds like a really great trip. That's a long time to not see the grands - enjoy your visit!

2 Nancy’s, 2 Chuck’s, 3 Laura/Lori/Laurie’s, 2 Diane/Dianne’s, 2 Alex’s, 3 Jen/Jennifer/Jenn’s, 5 Chris’, 2 Suz/Susan’s, 5 Sean’s, 2 Harrison’s, 2 Lisa’s, 3 Tom/Thomas’s, 2 Cass/Cassie’s, 2 Paige’s, 2 Matt/Matthew’s, 2 Jess/Jesse’s, 2 Megan's and only one real Bob???

Who is the real Bob?

 

[GOS]

Options for delivering distags

Suggestions so far have been:

1. Any way you want in any order, approx 5 per day (apart from some people who need to deliver all on day 1)

2. By deck number, approx 5 per day

3. By starting with the person under you on the list and delivering approx 5 per day.

4. Dont bother with everyone elses gifts and just deliver me a big prezzie on day 1 instead

(Personally I like option 4 the best)

Any other suggestions?

I've chosen option 3, but as I said I'll go with the flow.

Hiya Heather

How did the voting go yesterday?

I bet you're tired today

Hiya Karen. Not too tired today thanks and it we had a steady flow of voters.

 

[captchris]

Hello everyone. Back at home waiting for the kids to get home.

LOL! Yup, she just turned 2 and a half the other day. She will be a month shy of 3 when we are in WDW, so she's still free

We did that when Jay was not quite 3. All we had to do is buy his airline ticket and food. He enjoyed WDW but doesn't remember much.

 

[A fat english gent]

May i speak freely for all the thick gits on here who are having trouble following all this,can we just deliver the DISS -tags when we get the chance as this rapidly turning into the second coming of the retaking of Europe from the Germans,last time worked just fine didn't it?......
