11/24/07 We are Better Than Leftovers!!! Nana Head reunion Part 4

[theostwalts]

Trust me, Brantley....if I thought any of those big ol fishies were in the areas where we go....I'd be scared to go in. Enough that the jellyfish are around. Hopefully that SAFESEA stuff works good. Here's one more for you to ponder.

Relax.... the photo is pure fake. It just reminds me that we get a seafood buffet on the ship.

Better to get a buffet than to BE the buffet

 

[theostwalts]

Yeah... I'm "still working" on one from our trip in January 2006. It's never gonna happen! I'm better at updating my website!

Great job on the website by the way......

Melanie will you post the web address again. I didn't have time to check it out then but would like to now. Thanks.

We live at a distance from all of my family so this is a great way for them to keep up with us.

Staci did a really nice scrapbook from our first trip in 2005. She is still working on the one from last year. She wanted to get it finished before the cruise, but with all of the packing going on, that probably won't happen. She is hoping that they will have some cool scrapbook items in the ship stores.

Tell her they do have some kits to buy and they have really neat stuff in them. If they have some that have the 07 date on them they will be discounted this late in the year. you can get some good buys.

Hiya all green lighted bananas. Still sick, docs today. Getting weary of it all.

Sure took me a while to catch up today. You folks have been chatty!

On a happier note, we are all beside ourselves excited about the cruise. And I'm trying to plan a spring break trip to WDW - we have reservations offsite at the Marriott Grande Lakes -- and figure it's one more chance to use our annual passes b4 they expire. Kathy- tell me about Easter week. I imagine the MK is unbearable. How about the other parks? The bad news is that i missed the first opportunity book southwest and the cheap fares are already gone.

Happy Friday everyone.

Jeff

Wow 2 weeks from this moment we'll be at the airport ready to board our flight.

Hi guys. It took me forever just to cath up on a few days posts! I still haven't read them all! The Grandma tick tock contingency is ready to roll! We got our family T shirts back from Zazzle and will be wearing them at the port. ssshhhh, it's a surprise for the grandmother.

We all worked a few hours this week trying to finish up our door signs. We are changing them out from day to day and each stateroom is a bit unique...I sure hope you get a chance to swing by and see them.

Ron, I think you are just up the hall from part of our group. We are on deck seven.

Josh, Shelby is getting really excited about the teen hangout. She just loved that on both of our cruises.

Gram is very excited to meet as many of you as possible. She asks often if I have been on the computer talking to the fellow cruisers. Her health is doing pretty good and she is sure gung ho for the trip. I can't believe how difficult the airline is making it to travel with oxygen! I think we finally got the last of those details squared away.

Are we still certain that we have to tender on St Thomas? How do we find out?
Happy Last minute planning! Wendi

Wow!!!!! Lots of green lights on so

Hey Everybody!!!!!!!

QOD: Blackie Orchard

I do not think anyone will be able to beat Boots First!!!! That is just too funny!!!!

I think I can....Puss Fulton... Yep, we had a real original name for our cat. I am trying to find out what me DH's first pet's name was. If we used our first pet's name and street name of our first house together our names would be...Pompom Painted Daisy

Jeff, MK is terrible the other parks are busy but not horrible.
Epcot is the least crowded.
If you got to MK a few mintues before it opened and just stay long enough to do a couple of favorite rides it may work. Usually by 10 a.m. on Easter weekend MK is filled to capacity and they wont let you in until some leave after the parade in the afternoon.



Kathy

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

heres a couple of corny one liners to start the afternoon with.



Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now.

If you didn't like that one try this one: If you jump off a Paris bridge, you are in Seine!

Wendi, I would love to see some of the door signs, what areas of decks 6 and 7 are you located? or at least your room number so I can see yours.


It was good to hear from you again.
I was wondering about you just this morning since it had been awhile since we heard from you.

That actually may be okay because when we go in January we are staying on the monorail line and will spend most of our time at MK. That way we will want to do a lot of Epcot and see AK and MGM too during Spring Break. Since we are staying offsite at a hotel with a great pool and good kids programs we'll probably hang out there a day too.

Kathy,

We are forward in 7534. We also have staterooms scattered on deck 6 and few (including the grandmother) are aft on deck 7 near the secret deck. Do come by and see our signs! they really are cute. A few posts back someone was asking about scrappers...we have used our scrapbooking skills to create our signs. I will try to post a picture of last years.
it's fun to be back to the boards! Wendi

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Wendileigh,

we have 2 Wendi's, so if you dont mind Iwill call you Wendi L.

Your kids are soooo cute in your photo!!


Kathy

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Thanks wendi, I will be sure to check your door each day. we are 7624.
We like to take a walk after meals and try to walk ALL decks completely around to look at door signs, fish extenders and other decorations people put up. I take a list of dis rooms so I know if I know whose sign it is.

People are so creative!!!

Please do post signs from last year, that would be great.
we all love seeing photos .
