Enjoy the movie! It will be ready for you to enjoy when you get home.

WOW! There will be alot of us in those shirts!

Penny- Great Newsletter.

Thanks for taking the time to put it together. I can't wait until the next edition!!

 

[lbgraves]

Amy, you've become a posting fool here. Up to 43 already. At this rate you will pass some other folks on the trip before we cruise.

 

[waltsgirl]

I love having two laptops, I am not sure John feels the same!

Tonight I was showing him the Mousesurplus site and the items you could buy on EBay... cruise line deck chairs, comforters and lots of other Disney stuff. Of course shipping is high!!! John just rolls his eyes

 

[tynkerbell]

I want some of those deck chairs to place near our pool, but shipping is just too high for me.

 

[lbgraves]

I would love to be able to convince DH to stop by their store after getting off the ship. Someone posted a poor review of the warehouse though. We could strap them to the roof top carrier on the van or explorer.

Back from the movie. We did enjoy it, but all five of us agreed that we liked the first one way better. AAARRRRRR!

Really? I liked the 2nd better. I'm itching to see it again.

Glad you liked the Movie , but keep in mind you have only seen half of this story .....When Disney set out to do the first one they never thought it would do as well as it did - Hence you had a beggining a middle and an end - Whats happened with DMC is that your only actually getting half the story with the first half DMC being the begining and part of the middle , its a lot of setting up for POTC 3 Worlds End , if they keep this title. I guess once POTC 3 is out and you watch 2 and 3 together - then you get a full story just like POTC 1 . I am a huge fan and like you I also thought at this point POTC 1 was better but then had to think , Wait . " I have only seen half the story "

Its late here and I am bored so I figured I would respond ..LOL

We have only dial-up. So, I am waiting, and waiting for the newsletter to download. 6 more minutes.... 5 more minutes...

We are going to see Pirates tonight!

Hope this download hurries because we need to leave in 10 min.

4 more minutes...

Darn dial-up! That's what we get for living in the sticks!

I hear you! We have the same trouble!

 

[klineyqueen]

I hope you all had a great Saturday. It was our 6th wedding anniversary. We went out for dinner with the kids. Then we did some shopping. After we came home we watched our wedding video. We are geeks!!! It was a nice evening. I should be getting dressed for church.....

 

[klineyqueen]

Penny - the newsletter is totally amazing! I love it! My DH loves it! You really did a nice job with the layout! Your scrapbooking skills come in handy all of the time!

 

[lillygator]

ok, I really need to keep up with this thread a little more closely!

Happy Sunday!

Not much going on here today, going to order the lime green shirts, yardwork, housework and that's about it! - oh and DIS'ing!

 

[GoofyFD]

Penny -great job on the newsletter!!!!! Did everone get the letter from Disney? It tells you all about the ports and little tidbits of fun info. I can't wait the 144 days...... 17 hours.... 42 min.....

I just got the newsletter and it looks great. I was a little confused about the formal night on Sunday but I can see that has already been corrected.

I got my reservation moved to DU so I have another $50 onboard credit. and we were able to get our room moved from 2618 to 2608! I feel a little better being in the same area but down the hall just a little. I was a little concerned about our room being directly off the elevator lobby. I checked the DISser manifest and it looks like we are now right next door to another DIS family in 2606.

Unfortunately I got the virus that my kids had earlier this week. I feel pretty yucky but I hope that by tomorrow I will be feeling a lot better. I have a big meeting at work tomorrow that I can't miss.

DS is right here and he loves the bouncy smilies so I have to add a few here for him:

That is an awesome way to spend an anniversary! Of course we got married WAY before videos, but if we had one I think that is how I would like to spend our evening too. Very romantic!

 

[MrsMork]

144 days...... 17 hours.... 42 min.....

Thanks, Mark. I was about that.

 

[MrsMork]

We got no letter. Maybe next week.

 

[MrsMork]

Yes, we know that Pirates is just a piece of the story and will anxiously await the third to wind it all up.

 

[slindamood]

We got our Disney mailing today - well, the mail delivered it yesterday and left it on the front porch - I did not see it until this morning - and I thought I was left out. EXCITING - Newsletter and Disney letter all in the same week-end. It really is real.

I ordered lime green t shirts for DH and myself the cruise (plus a few other things featuring Mickey while I was at it) , as well as 21 turquoise shirts for DH family (who are joining us at BWV for a few days the week after the cruise is over). Thanks, personal shopper Lisa!! 20% off and free shipping and no taxes. Can't believe the bottom line was so low.

A Good Day to all.
