Lora, no problem at all. I want to make sure I have all the rooms where FE's will be hanging and correct info as to who will be in there. Do not want to give Hannah Montana Lipgloss to a 13 year old boy.....that would be bad. I got your info from the official list so you may want to check into it there. I printed off the website and then made mine by deck.

Thank you so much for letting me know and if anyone else sees any other mistakes please let me know so I can make my list correct.

Michelle,

Thanks for the FE list. It will be a great help when delivering our gifts.

I'm off to Erie (it's even colder up there!). Just found out my mother and sister got us great seats for the symphony tonight! I can't wait (I'm a classical nut, believe it or not). I'll catch up with everyone when I get back.
Have a great, happy and safe weekend!

I am off to shop at Disney and then headed to the Food and Wine Festival to eat some cheese soup.

Have a great weekend. In 5 weeks our family will be getting to jump in the car and off to the port.....how exciting for us all

We had grade card prep in our school district yesterday, and since I don't have to do grade cards, I got ALL of my homework finished for this weekend! So, I laid in bed until 9:45 and have absolutely no plans for today. It's going to be nice to have a weekend with nothing that I have to do.

I did get everything finished for my FE's, so I think I'm going to start assembling the bags and getting all of the ones marked that already have stateroom numbers.

We went to the mall last night and got DS dress shoes for his suit and a pair of brown shoes to wear with his khakis, so I think my shopping is done. I haven't started going through our clothes yet, but I've bought so much stuff and crammed it in the closets along the way that I'm sure we have to be covered.

Have a great weekend! I'm going to have fun getting my FE's ready.

We survived Mason's sleepover party last night!! 7 boys from age 5 through age 12....definitely an adventure!! I could use a day at CC to recover!! Our fe arrived today and Mason's stitch pillow case for the characters to sign!!

Hope it wasn't too hot for you, the weather, not the soup. We were there yesterday and it was a hot one, almost too hot to get the soup. But not quite. The frozen mojito from Puerto Rico made it better. As did the Grey Goose Slushie in France, the Mango Gingerita in China, and many bottles of water from Dasani.

The Grey Goose Slushie . . . Sounds intriguing.

It's always at the wine booth near France. They also have a Grand Marnier slushie, which surprisingly, wasn't as good as the Grey Goose Citron slushie. But both were good.

It was not too hot temperature wise, but it was super crowded. More than I remember seeing in the past. There were a lot of people with French Slushies. I went for the Peach Snaps Oolong Tea from China. I am not a beer drinker, but everyone I was with enjoyed Purple Haze from Louisiana.

The long lines probably helped save a lots of money :0

I am meeting my mommy friends tomorrow for another day of Food and Wine Fun. There were lots of groups there, but our favorite to talk with were the Drininking around the World Weekend. But our favorite looking was the large group of women all dressed in 80's garb......not sure why I did not bring my leg warmers


Chuck and Lisa, glad you survived an evening with crazy boys. I guess you probably deserve two trips to CC.

31 days and counting before we are in the world and 33 days before being onboard.

Still no room assignment. I'm waiting with baited breath....and waiting and waiting.

Perfect fall day here. Sunny and will be in the 60's though my preference is 75 to 80.

The slushies in France do rock. Did anyone try the lamb chop in Austraila? I missed the Purple Haze beer in Louisiana, but I had a slushie in my hand. I couldn't very well order a beer while sloshin' back the fru-fru drink. I never got a chance to go back and try it either. Is it a lager or an ale? Does it taste more like a dark beer like Guiness or something inbetween?

*Yes, I like trying new wine and beers.*

My friend loved the lamb chop in Australia, I had the prawns and the wattleberry mousse. I'm not a beer drinker, so I just enjoyed a few wines and any fru fru drink I could get.

I am not a beer drinker either. It is not a dark beer. It had a good taste when you first sipped then that beer taste that I hate after.

You could accompany your slushie with a beer. After the Austalian Wine tasting one of my friends decided the wine needed to be accompanied by a beer so why not a slushie accompanied by a beer Besides they had tiny little bottles of tobasco for you when you ordered in Louisiana...I guess it was a hot sauce chaser for the beer

I know the Publix's (grocery stores in Florida) sell Purple Haze (or at least teh Kissimmee.Orlando ones do) and you can buy a 6 pack for the price of one cup at Epcot.

For YEARS, I have been meaning to get over to the festival. THis time of year is just so hectic for us and we never seem to make it. WHats your opinion . . . I have a 6 year old that loves Epcot. Would she be bored to death at the Festival?

We haven't gotten our room assignment yet either. I check everyday... I hope it's soon because I would like time to try and change it, if I need to.



DS12 wanted me to ask again to see if anyone is interested in being Wii Friends. He has Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Kart. He wants to find people to play with.

I keep checking for our room assignment too!! Chuck tells me not to worry, that anyplace on the ship is better than not being on the ship!!

Thanks for room the list, we are 2110. For a while we considered upgrading but decided to keep this one. Now if DCL would like to put us in a higher cat then there will be no complaints from me! Seriously, it's been a rough year financially so we are thrilled to be going at all.

All this talk about cheese soup, frozen mojitos, slushies and that wonderful drink of the day is killing me as I gnaw on my not so yummy Fiber One bar.

Dissers, next time you see me I will be going crazy at the dessert buffet with that drink of the day (maybe two) in my hands.
