Denise,

I got the DCL logo background by borrowing it from "Dave's Disney Cruise Line Tribute Site" http://www.dcltribute.com/ . I guess I should thank Dave . But once your have the web page up and you see the DCL logo background, just right click on background and select "Save Background As" . This can be done on most web pages. Once you have the file saved you can copy & paste to your sign. You will need to do this several time to fill you page, depending on size of sheet and program you are using. Make sure you push logo to the back of stack, so you can place new images on top. If you still need help I could save my sign with just the background only and email it to you as a jpeg image.

Let me know… I am always on the computer.

DH just told me that I am not allowed to use the internet or a computer while on the ship. He said I have spent the last 9 months on the computer finding out everything possible that I can and while on vacation it is not allowed. What a stinker! I think I might have to sneak to Cove Cafe to get my coffee and puter fix! please advise!!!!!

Great sign Jeff! I can tell everyone is getting quite excited just by the activity on our thread! LOL I have a rule on my threads however! When we get back, we can not stop posting to it! We have to keep posting! LOL We are still posting on my 09-19 thread and we are becoming good friends!
It is hard to believe that we booked this cruise a little over a year ago, and its time has already here! (pretty much)
I actually did my 1st thought of packing Friday night, as I actually remembered to get my frineds nice big garment bag that held so much of our stuff last year! You all should be very proud of me.
Our halloween crowd was very small as well. I was very surprised, as I set a container of candy at our drive fully expecting it to be gone when we got back. It wasnt even 1/3 of the way empty!

aprile, trust me, you wont want to! You will be so busy having fun and relaxing that the computer will be the last thin on your mind, at least it was for me.

 

[Popovich]

Our documents came today. I can't believe how much stuff is in that envelope!! I'm already reading. My husband thinks I'm obsessed!!

Does anyone know where I can get a listing of the wines available with the wine packages? I know they have a premium package and a regular. Any suggestions? Our other option would be to bring our own and pay the corkage fee, but that seems expensive. We'll bring a couple nice bottles for before or after dinner.

Who's bringing pirate costumes for tropical/pirate night and what do the girls wear??? Matthew has a captain hook costume from last year when we went to MNSSHP at WDW and it still fits him-Yeah, one less thing to buy!!

Well, off to pass out trick or treat candy!

Happy Halloween

Great sign, Jeff! I just purchased some magnetic paper Saturday, so I'm off to try and make one for our two doors.

Popovich--all of my crew will be in costume. We bought some hats, swords and eye patches. Our 3 year old tried them out last night trick-or-treating. I SUPPOSE that's how a three foot tall pirate would have looked!

We've confiscated the trick-or-treat acquired Skittles and M&M packages so we can use them at the Buena Vista theater during movie time. That saves us looking for the inevitable movie snacks and holds off the dentist visits until after the cruise.

Still no docs.

We booked with DU -- just one room. Last time DU gave us a nice photo/scrapbook type box. Love to have something like that again as it made a great place to put all the little things we acquired on the cruise so they wouldn't get lost or smushed in packing.

 

[CurtS]

Jesse: my family will keep your mom in our prayers.

[tink1663]

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween. We had terrific weather so it was very enjoyable. Please add us to the list of booking with DU. We also have early seating. We will be going on our own to Trunk Bay. You can almost feel everyones anticipation growing as we get closer to sailing.

Jessegirl, I hope your mom gets better soon

Sue

 

[traceycooper]

Jesse, sending thoughts and prayers for you & your mum & family.
Jeff, loved your door sign!
TICKETS STILL NOT COME!! phoned TA today, they said they could be another week - we go a week on Friday!!! I'm not a happy bunny!
Wine packages - can you book them onboard? or do you have to do it before you sail? How do you book them?
Gotta dash & do some college work, hope everyone had a great Halloween, Its now officialy the month we sail YIPEEEEEEEEEE

 

[bodickmagic]

Hi Everyone,
We got our documents today - they are not as much as I thought - mostly just tickets and stuff to fill out . . .

does anyone know when we find out our dinner rotation?

count Michael and I in for wine tasting - and him in for a beer round - he would really like that!!

We just found out that despite the on ship person who we rebooked w/ telling us last year that our girls could go into the Oceaneer's Club - there is no way we can because they are not old enough - you mean i have been trying to potty train a 2 year old for no reason!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh well, we liked the nursery anyway and it is not like we are spending a lot of time without them.

Can't wait! 21 days til we leave!!

Yup. We booked palo dinner and brunch and spa back in August. Our DU TA took care of all of it. She's a wonder.
