Good night heather

Well, yesterday's "good-bye" picnic went well. Not too many tears which is exactly how Kristin and Jesse wanted it. It will be tough on us to see them leave but I can only imagine how hard it will be on Kristin. She is leaving everyone behind. Jesse has family down there already.

We did music cd's for them with our favorite songs on it. It'll keep them company on the 35 hour drive down there.

I'm still tossing around the idea of driving down with them though. I'm just afraid that the ride down will make leaving even tougher on us both.

I asked my mom once: "When do you stop worrying about your kids"? She said: "Never". Boy was she ever right!

It'll be a sad day in the cntkg1 household on Thursday.

Go, you will have good quality time!!!! You can pick out your winter house!!!

We went in 94 when the boys were small, they loved it. It is hot and the lighning capital of the world!!

We've done the parasailing twice now and loved it

I've tried it twice, once at Castaway Cay, and the other time was on Bay Lake at WDW. I enjoy the tandem harness to share the experience with one of my kids. All to soon they will be too big for that.

Matthew

it is great isnt it?? after getting cancelled on several cruises, we finally got to FLY on CC. trouble was....seconds after being up there, Robin decided it wasnt "daring" enough. now she wants to jump out of a plane??(or get a harley)maybe she wants to push me out of the plane.

The girls and I talked about shore excursions last night. Beth was at work on the night shift. Here's what we are thinking about.

St. Maarten

Anguilla Dolphin Encounter OR
Golden Eagle Catamaran

St. Thomas / St. John

Magens Bay Beach Break

Castaway Cay

Banana Boat Ride & Mountain Bikes to tour the island

The girls asked about parasailing again, but I would like to do something different. Besides, last time was so great, I wouldn't want to spoil it. It seemed like we were up longer than most and got dipped in the water three times!

PAIGE - Do you have access to the prices? We can't see them yet.

Matthew

we did golden eagle catamaran in 2005 and it was great.(right guys?)

 

[Dyerneeds]

"My name is Ping" Guess what! Her name really is "Ping"!

Matthew

really?? when we were there, we ran into PING's twin sister who also works there. i think her name was "PONG".

 

[Dyerneeds]

OK, I took this picture SPECIFICALLY with Mike in mind.

This is from the Art of Disney store in EPCOT.

we got to see a shuttle blastoff when our 2001 wonder cruise returned.
it was sooooooo cool.

 

[Dyerneeds]

i was sitting in the sun catching "rays" and reading the Passporter book.
told Robin, i'm going to have to quit reading or go get the Mylanta because i was getting excited and my stomach was churning.

 

[Dyerneeds]

it would appear i've killed the thread again.

hey, its what i do.

so i'll take my FO and go.

 

[gstroop28]

There are not any bannana boats at cc any more!!!

We did the golden eagle in 2004, was fun!!

Nooooooo! They have a picture of it in the stuff they sent us (the little portfolio) but I didn't see it on the DisneyCruise website under shore excursions. Oh well..... just need to find something else to do - in addition to the parasailing.

That's a bummer. I was looking forward to those. Why did they take them away? Did someone get hurt? It seems a shame, they seemed really popular. How much are jet skis?
