11/14/09 - Special Western - 2 CC stops

[Hypermommy]

Denise, you crack me up!!!!!! I am sooo looking forward to meeting you face to face! Even if I'm not fantastic with the computer, we are both Disney freaks right?

But of course. And that's SOOOOOOO much more important!

Took only a half an hour due to my brain hiccups, but I corrected our stateroom on the spreadsheet. Sorry for the scare.

If y'all have trouble with the workbook just let me know. I'll be happy to help in whatever way I can. Although I can tell y'all have been burning it up. Google sends me an email whenever someone updates the workbook. And Ii got like 17 thousand emails yesterday. Glad to see that the workbook appears to be useful.

But I thought you were trying to get to know gomagic a bit better there.

Sorry, my bad. DCL changed our room and I put the wrong one in the spreadsheet. IM a bad typer. I will fix now, at leat try

Again, my apologies

No problem. I figured it was just a case of the wrong cabin number being entered.

Okay, I just have to mention this. Have y'all noticed that BigJack and his crew have

ELEVEN

staterooms??????

I think their small country has had a population explosion.

Hey, what's y'all's national anthem? Margaritaville???

On our last cruise with DH's fam damnly we had 8 rooms. Let's start a pool and try to guess how many they will have by sail date! Seriously though, I hope they got a group rate since they qualify! Disney was really good to us with our group rate...

 

[LindaBabe]

That's certainly a FAMILY! I don't think I know 11 staterooms of people I'd want to sail with!

Did ya notice how many scrapbookers there are?! Woo HOO!

Unfortunatley, we did not get a group rate. I called and asked but because we did not all book at the same time--no discount. Don't worry though, the last 3 cabins were booked at the military rate which is a great rate. We have never cruised with this many friends/family before. They just have all listened to us rave about our other cruise and decided they wanted to come. I told them just to plan whatever they want and we will all meet for dinner. At Grand Cayman, some are going snorkling and some are going to the turtle farm. Even if some just plan on staying on the ship, we will have a great time.

I love that!!!!! Inlaw issues there?

I hope all the scrappers will post their pages in our gallery after the cruise. That'd be so much fun looking over each other's work and reminiscing. Okay... at least to me it would but maybe it's because I don't have a life.

Even if some just plan on staying on the ship, we will have a great time.

And just think of how spacious the boat will seem when they all go somewhere!

(Barbara, I hope you know I'm just messing around. I have a terribly sarcastic sense of humor (no! not me!!!) and I hope I'm not offending you. )

Barbara, I hope you all wear matching shirts when you get onboard, especially when they announce your family name. We got a kick out of the loud cheer! We had a fun time when we sailed with family, and you have the right idea to meet for dinner. Our servers were great with the kid only tables!
Looking forward to meeting you all on board!

You have no idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of you have been around a while but you know Shirley - the lady that makes the baskets. She has what I think to be sort of an "odd" post over on the main board. Did any of you read it? And more importantly, can any of you shed any light? I have obviously missed something.

 

[glindamood]

It has only taken me a little of nine years to get to 2000 posts! What a slow poke I am - and no tag either.

I was reading her post and I am totally confused! Did something happened?

I have no idea. I am hesitant to ask other than on my two meets threads. If I find anything out, I will post.

 

[binky1]

I'm wondering if something happened with her husband Norm - he's not mentioned.....sorry to hear it if that is the situation....

That is kind of what I am thinking too. She has posted thank-yous before and always had his name. I hope we are both wrong, wrong, wrong.

Well, I thought I knew a little bit about computers, but I guess I was wrong. I had the hardest time setting up the google account and figuring out the workbook. I think I finally got it. Thanks hypermommy for all of your help.

On a funny note, I tried to explain to my husband what a FE is. He thought we had to deliver 26 gifts every single day. I was wondering why he looked a little paniced at first. After he thought about it, he said I know of a really good gift. We could copy Disney Movies on a CD so they could watch them in their room. I just looked at him and said UM I think that's ILLEGAL!!!!!!

Now... if some parent really wanted to come up and see the place I'm sure Disney would let them. They let me last year, but I just looked around, saw that it was a cool teen-ish spot and left. Okay, so shoot me... yeah, I respect my son's space but I'm also the original Hypermommy and that's a really fine line to walk sometimes.

That's just being responsible parents... DH had to go up for a peek too (and DD is only 5 at the time!). He thought the Stack was cool and said he'd like to hang there and play video games. Of course, he wasn't allowed to stay!

Okay, I just have to mention this. Have y'all noticed that BigJack and his crew have

staterooms??????

On our last cruise, we met someone on a family reunion and they had more than 100 people on board. DCL reserved areas/rooms for them everyday for their "reunion" activities.

Well... only if you get caught.

I can just see me trying to get my whole family on a cruise. First question out of everyone's mouth would be to ask if I'd won the lottery!

She and Norm have both had some serious health issues this year. Some people posted complaints because they had to talk to her assistant when they ordered instead of her - well that shop is their only income, so naturally she'd like to keep the business going even though she's ill. They are both in their 70's and I wish she didn't have to work so much, but she never complains about that, just sees what she can do for others. Did you know if she finds out there are "make a wish" kids on board, she sends them a free gift basket?

Scrapbookers, did you know there is a Scrapbook board on the DIS? I don't remember seeing many of your names from over there! It's in the Creative community link.

Happy Day, all!
