12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 14

[bubbasmom99]

I can't leave tonight without posting some pictures. I can't wait to see everyone else's. I will look at the snapfish group thing more this week & get the info to everyone. Looking thru our pics I see many fellow DISers & their family members so we are probably in each others alot.

I have an empty account set up at Winkflash if anyone wants to upload... www.winkflash.com and the userid is disgeeks and password is mickey.

I don't have any billing info set up in there, but if you send yourself an invitation as a "friend", then you should get a link to order prints from the account and can enter CC info that way.

Some of the DISKids meeting in the parking lot.

This is too adorable!

The shuttle pics are fantastic too! I took a video but not still photos... I purchased a close up from shutters though...

 

[tynkerbell]

Well that stinks! Maybe if I scan the picture and email the company they will send me the right one. We got ours on Sunday.

Let me know if you are able to get a reprint of it or if you know who we can contact for reprints. I was so annoyed to find this error tonight.

Good morning, everyone! Just home and caught up on the posts (we went to the "other" Orlando parks on Sat and Sun). Had a late flight home and will have to function in the morning!
So fun to meet people, even if it was just a "Hi, are you so-and-so? I'm Marielle." The surprises in the stocking were so neat! Thanks, everyone!

Did anyone else notice the screwup on the embarkation photos? I was just looking through all my shutters pics and saw that our embarkation picture says "Grand Cayman" on it as one of the stops.

I just noticed that today, very annoying. I wish I had noticed sooner so I could ask them to fix it! I also wish they would do the photo pass thing that Disney World does, I just ordered my pics from there online and it was so convenient.. no waiting in line!

 

[Bella2000]

Glad to see everyone checking in - now I don't need to worry about you all getting home. Angie please let us know how Aaron did and when he is home.

No everyone not 12/07 but 12/08

I must say I hear everyones voices now as I read your posts. That's pretty neat. I am SO glad I didn't go to breakfast. My eyes get all blotchy and nose all red when I cry.

Love the shuttle pcis Lisa. What a neat experience. I love that I saw it. Todd so rocked at Captain Jack! Do you think Disney will update their Captain with Todd's touches?!

Yes, I wish they also had photopass on board. I am so sorry you did not get notified about the updated photos. We had picked up the embarkation ones right away and when I went back the next day the woman at shutters saw my card marked with one and asked whether I had picked up the embarkation photo and to bring it back and she would fill out a reprint notice on it. She also mentioned that they pulled them all and reprinted as soon as they noticed.

Marielle! How was Universal? I told Marielle I recognized her by her camera. If I had seen ehr posting with her powerbook I would have definitely known it was her!

 

[Bella2000]

Okay - so I am wide awake now. It must have been the sea calm for me and the bonine jr or DD that had us asleep so early on board??

I do need to get to bed. Welcome back everyone. Caroline glad you are home. Sorry about DH's back. Joy - phew that was so scary re the car! Glad to hear the transformer issue wasn't bad for you guys Angie and Dennis.
Hey V - no visit to Massachusetts?! Come on!! Where is the love?
Becka - so sorry things were a but stressful. Your kids were so cute! That is the coolest thing about the DCL - everyone loves kids. Hey! I did not know Aaron's "friend" moved. Isabella was cool with it and I am the one who quasi gasped/screeched and pulled back. She'll probably ask Santa for one for her birthday. thanks guys

The bananaman pic with the Rachel and the Captain was a hoot! I love that she did that!

Brack you need to check in! I want to know Annette's feedback. She and Missy had me in the limbo line! I also want to know how difficult it was or was not to remove your mutton chops.

Brandi - yoohoo. Your mom is a peach by the way. Well your whole family is - Did you ever get to do the cake for your son? It was probably when we ate at Palos huh? Ah well I wanted to sing loudly.

Kristina and Andy - you guys saw more of my DH than anyone I think. Sorry I didn't catch up with both to share the green M&Ms.

Tana - did you ever go to the stores that night after Shutters. I picked up a few (cough cough) things.May I blame Lisa? I never did go back and exchange my shuttle pic for the one that had the date on it. Oh well. Fortunately now I have Lisa's pics which are truly amazing.

Todd - what do you mean the weather in LV was colder than MA? WOW!

John - sorry the trip back was a pill. Good luck finding your map. That is a bummer.

Dody - good luck with the embarkation photo.

I'm glad the newlyweds are doing well. We should have sent a note over to Saratoga to let them know they are taking care of DIS royalty.

Okay - I hope to catch up with everyone later this week. If I missed comments back - I'll catch you later.

Night!

Yup, I went back the next morning after breakfast -- got my picture and the line was shorter line too. But I'm still glad I went that night because it was the only chance I had to chat with you and I got to see your beautiful dd's pictures which were truly amazing!!! Oh wait, you mean the gift shop store, yes I went and they were open but they were out of the scrapbook. I'm glad because I already have my scrapbook planned and it will be black, red and Mickey yellow... but if the navy blue one had been available on sale I would have caved and got that one instead..... but it wouldn't go with my color scheme!

I am wide awake tonight too after being exhausted every night on the cruise, what is up with that!!

Good morning, again!
DH had to fly to NYC today for a one-day meeting. So, yes, we left the Philly airport at 11:30 pm (home after midnight) and he had to be back there in time for a 6:20 flight.

DD13 is off to school, and now the other two have to get ready. And I will have to be functional at work (but I think we're going out to celebrate office birthdays today, so I think I can ease in that way).

 

[Bella2000]

Good morning

Talk about waking up in a snap - I heard the sound of an idling truck and thought Oh NO - Poland Springs is delivering today! I jumped up and flew down the stairs. DH was already there taking care of it. Phew!

Oh your Dh must be one hurting puppy this a.m. That so stinks. Good luck this morning getting kids off and back to work.

 

[Bella2000]

Have a great morning all!! Time to get my work day started.

Here is the digital video clip that I took of the meeting.

Lisa - you should put this up on YouTube.

 

[MrsMork]

Aaron's flight out of Portland was delayed a bit, but he made it home a little after 6 their time. About 45 min late. He told his Daddy that he sat next to a lady with a little dog and the dog was nice. He also said he fell asleep in flight. He and his parents were very happy to see each other.

Well, maybe it will make you better to hear how DS read DH on the ship. He was reading the Christmas card from Mike & Chris and said...

DUH Chrisva

Anyone know who to contact ....I knew we shouldnt have ordered them the last night ...errrrhhhhh

 

[lbgraves]

I just got off the phone with Greg from image services who does the pictures. He says to take a digital picture or scan of the embarkation photo and email that along with the numbers on the back, the ship, dates sailed, and your address and he will forward that information to the ship so that they can correct the problem and send the picture out to you.

gnusser@imageservices.com

Todd, I would email him with the problem doing the same thing showing the two cards you received. The number is 1.800.772.3470 if you have any other questions.
