12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 10

BTW Brack,

At the Halloween party last night we were talking to some friends (their son went to Kindergarten with Sophia) and found out they had been on a Disney cruise. Guess which one? The one where the Magic caught on fire! They were your shipmates.

Another DIS degree for separation.

Of course when we told people we were going on our 7th DCL cruise, we got the blank stares and uncomfortable silence . . . Then we tried to talk about the "friends" we met on the internet - some more blank stares.

Not to self.

Do not discuss multiple DCL cruises or internet friends other than at the DIS boards. Your neighbors think you are locko.

Lesson learned?!?!

soccer is finally over DS's team won the "President's Cup". they defeated a 1st place team. it went into 2 ten minute overtime quarters tied at 1. we scored in the 1st OT and held them throughout the rest. the kids were so excited. the parent's from the other team were so harsh to their kids. they have been together for a long time while we are a new team this year. they kept telling their kids that they weren't playing hard enough and needed to pick up the pace of the game. on kid fell down three times during the game. he had been on my DH's team for several years and was always falling down crying. he went down during the OT & all his father said was "get up & get off the field now!!!" I'm afraid that his evening will not be very good. there was also a mother standing behind me who had the worst voice I have ever heard. she kept screaming and it sounded like someone was runnign their finger nails over the chalkboard.

Congrast to your DS!! Sounds like they had a fun season.

Congrats to DS team!!!! When I was an umpire for little league, I kicked parents out for that kind of behavior. This is supposed to be fun!

You actually umpired?!?! That I would never do. Coaching is stressful enough without having the heckles and snide remarks throught the game.

OMG - the end!!!

Who missed V???
anyone?


We're back - had an AWESOME time. Really great!!

Johnny set one foot out of the car in his Sparrow getup and people were asking for photos....(in the castle)

need I say anything?

outside Pirates

Coral Reef

after BBB!

Love, love, love the pictures Vanessa!! Your girls and their outfits are too cute for words!

And that banana suit...

this is what DS wants to be doing

Ok, THIS is what Dina wants to be! But it won't be happening.

I thought those were pickled (not deviled) eggs . . .

Around here, deviled eggs are hard boiled, but in half, the yolk taken out and mixed with some mustard and paprika stuff and then put back.

Is this another pot pie thing?

It IS fun watching people catch up!

ok so after my griping that my fellow Minnesotans just don't get the DCL concept, I went on and on to my friend today about the planning, the DIS board, the various activities, etc. She was so excited, she can't wait until they can come along with us. Hopefully next year! She was really excited about the Hummerzine too. Talking about it made it seem more real, only 6 weeks away, can that be??

But don't get her hopes too high whatever future meet thread you may be in.

 

[pyramid2000]

Thanks!!
I say yes, but DH wants to be Davy Jones




...a HUGE FUNNY!


We were in line at Pirates at around 11:30pm Thursday, me, the girls my sis and her boyfriend. Johhny ran up through the crowd and half the group behind us were taking pics and getting their autograph books ready thinking it was JS.....it was a trip!

This was a great trip....VERY VERY crowded. Spoke with lots of locals who felt the same. Dining plan is really ruining the TS experience...I know flames...The BBB --- SOOOO overbooked (we waited 45m for our appt) and for the big package price....not worth it.

I am sad to leave...we really had a great time. Went on Nemo....stayed at the parks day and night, not something we normally do, went to ESPN...had a bigger blast.....and the GATORS WON!!

Sounds like you had a blast! Oh what it must be like to live so close!

The community board thinks the mods are messing with us. Do you think Lisa would ever mess with us? I think she is too tired from carnival to even waste the energy.... but I don't know about the others....

 

[DrHug]

Hmmmmm, It looks like I can snag a if I stick it out long enough. Guess we'll have to move East.

 

[pyramid2000]

Not only that, I think the CM on the island would cut you off at all of the bars on the island for these rest of the day...

There'll be a big, "NO BANANAs served here today." sign posted...

 

[DrHug]

Anybody out there?

 

[pyramid2000]

If you do a search in this thread for "recipe" you will find all of the crock pot ones that have been posted. If you can't find them, I will do the search & send you the posts.

Not that I need this search, but whenever I try to search on a single board, I get nothing.
