Yes! - pizza and pasta!

Mommy can stop worrying now

Ye Karen
olivia had the same for her school lunch yesterday, isn't that strange. All schools cant serve the same meals can they?

One gift per cabin Shelley, at least that's how we played it the last time I participated.

Thanks B.

 

[Verandah Man]

Yep - I agree - leave it to the tagger what they choose - the list is just examples of small items Bobbers suggested. I think we all struggled fitting all our fab goodies in the cases last time, but anything smallish goes

We also should decide if we're just tagging with one small item - ie one cd or one magnet etc....some of the bags we recieved last year were stuffed full of goodies. I know all my little goodies came to half a suitcase on the way out This year I'll just be tagging with one small item to each cabin - is that what everyone else is planning on doing? I dont want to be the mean one if everyone is going to have a bulging bag and I turn up with one magnet each

If we keep it small and simple then more people can play so if any newbies join in nearer the time we can hopefully accomodate them and let them "play"

I agree, one small item each will be fine.

Karen do you leav gifts so everyone in the room? Say it is a room of 4 would you leave 4 of whatever or just one gift for the room? Am I making sense? Am I still here.....drugs are starting to kick in.

Thanks for answering Benda! - Yes - just one per cabin.

I was busy making t shirts - no....not cruise ones - Ben 10 for Ellis - he's crazy about him, - I just made 4 - all turned out well

It was pizza day at Ellis' school - I wonder if all UK councils did the same thing?

I agree, one small item each will be fine.

Phew! - thats good. depends on which airline we fly with this time, but we might be struggling with weight. If its not Virgin then its going to be difficult. I dont like Virgin, but they do a much bigger luggage allowance and they fly daily...the only thing is they are more expensive and I have to sign tons of paperwork for the Virgin "doctors" re Ellis' allergy

 

[Timon]

Good deal - we'll get you on the list....can you PM me and Karen with your cabin number, if you have it assigned?

Anyone else we missed????

It's up on the Yahoo site but looks like Karen got it already

Just in time for this thread to be closed down, I have updated the links in the first post.

However, I'm thinking of putting the link to Cass' site (the one in our logo's) first after the list of DISers on this thread. Is that O.K. Cass?

We're less than 300 posts away now. Should be soon.

Sounds good Jeff

We don't care what the dining rotation is ... we'll overdress every night just to embarrass everyone.

Well, that won't be hard since I plan on wearing a tank top and jean shorts to every single dinner Oh, no sorry...wait..that was my SIL

Sorry Cass - I'll add you - I've got your cabin no.

Thanks, you're a dear don't mistake that for a deer

Ben 10? Please explain....

I'm sure you already have the cruise t-shirts done!

Cass,

Thomas's favorite character from Lion King is Timon...


BTW - Have you seen Lion King 1 1/2? Is it any good?

 

[Scouter]

Awesome Job Andy!


Well, I've finally found you guys! I didn't know about the new rules on long threads. So, I couldn't figure out what happened to my reminder emails. I figured out that I would look into it after vacation.

We just spent a week at Disneyland. It was awesome. I think that the Disney CM's in Anaheim have really stepped up their game, the customer service was amazing. We had a great time just relaxing in the park in no real hurry to go anywhere. (6 days in a small park like Disneyland leaves you plenty of time) We broke away from DL for a short time on Wednesday night and went to a dinner theater called Pirates Dinner Adventure. That was very fun. Food was so so but the performers worked hard at including the audience in many of aspects of the performance so the kids had a great time. Thursday (Valentines Day) I almost decided to take the day off from the park. (The idea didn't go over too well with the kids) But, we went anyway and were glad we did. We met some friends in the park, which was a nice surprise and later after when we were exiting from the Matterhorn the Disney Dream Team was there handing out invitations to stay in the park after hours. We met in the Festival Arena. (a place in Disneyland that I had never seen before and didn't even know existed) We were told that they only handed out about 3000 of the invites. At exactly 1/2 hour after the park closing they let us out to wander a completely empty park. All rides were open and it was always a "walk directly on." (except finding Nemo, it still found a line!) The whole family went to Space Mountain then we split up, Stuart and I ran to Indiana Jones and rode it then since there was no line, the CM's asked us if we wanted another go-round (YEAH!) Then we went looking for Laura and Leah, who managed Buzz Lightyear, Peter Pan, Dumbo, and Alice in Wonderland before running out of time. Even with aprox 3000 people in the park, Stuart and I were alone in Adventureland and then alone in the hub waiting for the girls. Absolutely Amazing. I doubt that I will ever have another experience like that again.

Well, we've been home for a week now and I am already having Disney withdrawls.

Wow! How cool!
So nice to hear from you Steve

Cass,

Thomas's favorite character from Lion King is Timon...


BTW - Have you seen Lion King 1 1/2? Is it any good?

I knew I liked that kid!

Yes, I've seen 1.5 and it was way better than 2!! I enjoyed finding all those hidden Mickeys

Can't wait to watch all the Disney movies with Kira one day

 

[Karen Mouse]

Ben 10? Please explain....

I'm sure you already have the cruise t-shirts done!

Ben 10 is a cartoon - a young boy who has a wierd watch that makes him change in to 10 different aliens. He's addicted - I was the sucker who was paying 3 times the RRP for hte little alien toys off ebay at christmas

I think Jeff said his ds likes it too so you must be able to get it over there. Its on cartoon network - maybe a bit old for Thomas though.

Re making cruise shirts - I'm very tempted, but I'll hold off a while longer yet.

 

[Scouter]

I finally got Kristin and Jesse's pics loaded onto my computer so here are a few of my favs:

This family does not travel lightly:

Kristin got "tagged" and wasn't even part of the DIStag game:

A sample of Kristin's photography work in Key West:

One of my favs (Jesse....what a goof!):

I think my boys were "overserved" at Rockin Bar D one night:

Beautiful:

Great underwater shot at CC:

The love birds:

A final message at Castaway Cay:

Nancy, love these photos!

That pic of Jess and Kristin It's beautiful!
I love it!
And the heart in the sand too!

Just copying this from pg 11 of this thread so it doesnt get lost. Do we need to add the rules to page 1 (or is it already done )

I have added the link to page 1.

Sounds good Jeff

I will add the link starting with the new thread then.

 

[JLDSMD]

I was looking at the threads and we are now currently the largest open thread. This only means we will be the next one to get closed.

Once we hit page 245, I will start the new thread. Figure we might as well be proactive with it and then just ask them to close this one down. Unless someone feels a need to run this thing until they close it on us.

Let's stick it to the man!! Run this thing into the ground!!!

Sorry- that would be the drugs talking.

We'll have to watch 1 1/2 then - I saw 2, but didn't like it quite as much.

It is really fun to watch them with him - we've even watched Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Little Mermaid....the latest two have been Lion King and The Jungle Book.

On the last cruise I made our t-shirts with characters on the front and the KK logo on the back - I did Cinderella for mine, a Jedi Mickey for Pete, and Peter Pan for Thomas. It's going to be really hard picking a character for Thomas this time around - he likes so many!

To think this current thread only started on February 4th and we are already talking about getting ready to close this one down and start a new chapter................

That does sound good! Pete is coming home from a 2 day business trip tonight, and I'll be making deep dish pizza casserole - it's one of his fave's.

I know how we can finish off this thread! Let's all list our favorite Disney characters! I'll go first:


Cinderella
