12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 11

[lbgraves]

Ok washed them...dried them... They shrank a little...

But came out wrinkled....

Does someone want to help me iron 180 bandanas?

Sure!!! send them on down.

 

[lbgraves]

Last night, DW and I were gathering laundry from the dryer and DD came down and said she was looking for clothes for school today....we told her there was nothing there for her and she said, "Oh well...I guess I'll go naked."

I looked at DW and said, "Oh well, Deck 6. "

On a crafty note......

I finished my DH's Mickey tie.....

Made from same fabric as my Aloha Mickey dress....

It looks cute.....

Dh looked at it and said.... Your missing a made by disney label....

So i guess it looks OK....

That sounds so cool! I can't wait to see it. We also have the aloha Mickey stuff. We will be wearing it one time. The first night at dinner we will all be wearing the matching red stuff from the Disney store. We also have the blue set from the Disney Direct. We will probably wear that one day.

 

[klineyqueen]

The stuff lasts so long too! Both kids still play with their big tub of Thomas trains. They had it set up wrapped around the monorail yesterday.

I can totally vouch for the fact that those toys don't break. If they would they are guaranteed! He has the table and the wooden line. He also has a few of the lego ones. He saw the new one that thomas goes to the water tower and gets water then he puffs real steam. He won't be getting that from us or from Santa this year...sorry kiddo. He has so many different train sets we don't need one more. Other than Thomas he also has 2 different sets. We have thrown 2 others away because they were cheap and got broken. Anyway, Thomas is the best!

 

[klineyqueen]

If they are dressed up we will run them back to the stateroom to change for the club so they don't mess up the clothes but I will probably just plan on changing them and have a bag with the clothes with me. If we can talk DD into going to the club one night after the show so we can go to our club we will put her in her long pjs.

I wasn't sure if people put 3 yo's in their pjs to go back to the club at night.

 

[klineyqueen]

It will drive you nuts! Just stay here & play.

I am doing both!!!! I loaded the dishwasher and did the dishes while Eliza was trapped in her high chair. She tries to climb into the dishwaser. It is gross when they are all dirty...KWIM? I need to start a load of laundry.

 

[klineyqueen]

Two questions...

Question 1 - How much do they charge to press your clothing on the ship?

 

[Bella2000]

we spent the weekend in exciting Worcester, Ma. Hello Carla!!!

Are you on the west side of Boston? I didn't think you would be able to sneak in a meet though, but we did wave.

elaine

Nah, we are north but appreciated the wave . Did you fly in? There was a 21 car pile up on 84. Scary thing. I heard about it on the news Sunday night.

 

[klineyqueen]

Question 2 - Does anyone know when they will release the park hours for June? I want to make my ADR's before we leave for this trip. Our 6 m window will open the week before we leave for the cruise. I just like to figure out where we will be what day according to their EMH schedule.

I have also found that the Lionel train sets that Target use to sell over the holidays go with the Thomas track very well. I bought a ton one year at the 75% sale after Christmas. The engines are motorized & the cars have lights on them. They have lasted just as well.

 

[Bella2000]

Well that is easy to answer....it was the end of the show. Let's see what she does next week.

Noooooo, you can not suck me into anothe show.

 

[lbgraves]

I wasn't sure if people put 3 yo's in their pjs to go back to the club at night.

OF COURSE! By 9 pm the kids are on the mats watching a movie. Most fall asleep there. Why wake them up when you get them changed for bed when you take them back to the room? It is so much easier to just pick them up from the matt & carry them back to the room. Put them right into bed. DD wore her PJs last year & she was 5. John's DD & her went around to the princesses for pictures in their PJs one night when I picked them up from the club. They had their Princess PJs on of course.

 

[lbgraves]

They charge half the cleaning cost to just press the clothes. There is a link on the FAQ thread.

 

[Bella2000]

I do this with green beans, sugar snap peas, asparagus, broccoli. It allows the vegetables to be crisp and not soggy.

I think it works the least well with asparagus because I like my asparagus to be perfect. and if you miss the timing the asparagus can get droopy.

elaine

Oh, I'll perhaps try that read - ask DH to try it.Those are my favorite veggies. Agreed - droopy asparagus is blech.

 

[lillygator]

I wasn't sure if people put 3 yo's in their pjs to go back to the club at night.

I think Samantha sometimes did but I always had Haley in her PJ's...which I am kinda sorry I did...Peter Pan and Cinderella both came in there and held her and took pictures with her.
I did not find out until the end of the cruise when the girls from Flounders gave me an envelope with a pillowcase, photos, a growth chart, etc. Very cool!

 

[lbgraves]

Question 2 - Does anyone know when they will release the park hours for June? I want to make my ADR's before we leave for this trip. Our 6 m window will open the week before we leave for the cruise. I just like to figure out where we will be what day according to their EMH schedule.

I have found that they release the hours about 3 months ahead. That doesn't really help with the 6 month window now but you can go based on past hours.

[lbgraves]

I'm going to get out of here for a bit. I have tried Target & DISing and can't shake the blah mood I woke up with. Maybe I am just worried about MIL but I haven't felt this low in a while.

 

[klineyqueen]

I have also found that the Lionel train sets that Target use to sell over the holidays go with the Thomas track very well. I bought a ton one year at the 75% sale after Christmas. The engines are motorized & the cars have lights on them. They have lasted just as well.

I will have to keep that in mind. Thanks

I am glad to hear that. I kind of figured this but I wanted to be sure! Thanks!!!!!

Thanks Lisa - I will head over to the main board.
