12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 3

Now I have some questions.....

Who are these people?

Why do they know you know me?

Why does everyone seem to think that I can actually do something on DCL? (I get pms all the time asking for help with resies or WLE folks.) Those people at DCL don't give a hill of beans who I am.

It's all because you look so much like Cinderella!

OK, that explains it...they are dillusional and think that I am the head princess.

 

[tynkerbell]

That must be it!

I still can't shake the image of you being Cinderella even though I know that isn't you in the picture.

Caroline, Have you done the special Disney Visa meet and greet there? Is great because there is never anyone there and the kids get to spend lots of time on hugs.

Plus we saw kenai and the little one from brother bear...

Kim

We have been to this at EPCOT. You could go once a day and we were there two weeks so we went about 8 times. Here's one:

 

[tynkerbell]

What exactly is this Visa Meet and Greet? I've never heard of it.

 

[brack]

Lisa, DD does not like the show like bugs life and muppet either. It really scares her. Is that what a 4D is? Also, I cannot see 3D so not so much fun for me.... Is that what they have at Animal Kingdom?

Kim

No way! We love the safari, Dino Whirl, white water ride not to mention the shows like Lion King. I do plan to ride Mt Everest this time. AK is a very neat place.

Your picture elicited actual gasps from my DD. She is so excited right now!

 

[lbgraves]

I just sent out an email about the website being updated to everyone on the list. PLEASE let me know if you don't get one.

 

[brack]

Okay , heres a quick photoshop of it without the "tree"...its not a good one , but it is an idea ...

I wonder ..... could this be made to a size that could be trimmed to a "Mickey's icon"?

Do you mean have the text inside a big circle and then smaller circle for the ears?

 

[MommyMinnie]

Patsy, you crack me up.....every day!

Thanks

I hear they have GREAT cookies on the cruise. I was always too stuffed and tired in the evenings to try them but I made the mistake of telling DS that no only would they bring donuts to the room but they had cookies too. I forsee our stateroom being on the nightly cookie runs in December. Guess I will have to leave a little room for cookies this time!

The last two cruises I would set the alarm for about 3AM to call room service. I would order two oatmeal raisin cookies and a pot of coffee. YUMMMM!

3AM?

Please tell me you meant PM. I am so not a morning person and I cannot imagine someone waking up at 3 AM - even if it involves cookies and caffiene!

 

[MommyMinnie]

DS slowed me down!!! LOL!

He was wanting me to put in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movie for him! I think I lost #8600 because of turtles!!!

Keep at it Becka, Although you may need to pull a "John" to get one.

I tried yesterday but I don't have that kind of time. One of these kids are always needing something. You would think they could understand priorities. Who needs dinner anyway?

 

[MommyMinnie]

This summer while DD was at "Grandma Camp" she was actually attending a Theatre Camp at the Tifton Theater. The kids did all the production work and acting for a play called "The Trial of The Big Bad Wolf". DD was Mrs. Sprat. There were three shows and all the kids did a fantastic job. Of course I am particularly proud of one special DD.

The boy in this picture is Jack Sprat.

The boy in this picture is one of the three little pigs. DD is reenacting the Mom Pig warning him about the Big Bad Wolf.
Oh yeah, I made the costume.

O.K. back to cruise business. And I need to get back to quilt work. I'm getting soooo behind!

 

[brack]

I do have t-shirts with the kids names on them but that does not both me as much as giving both a name and a specific location at the same time. I guess I try not to be too paranoid but at the same time I don't want to make it too easy for someone to find my kids.

(There's no smiley for "tongue in cheek") You can put all of the specific information on my DS you want; if someone tries to take him they'll be sorry. He's 33yo, 5'9" tall and 250lbs!

I agree with you all though; it is a shame that we even have to think this way. I'm glad that my DS has made it past this kind of mess.

Yes

3AM?

3AM is correct. I would eat the cookies with the coffee then sleep a couple of more hours and get up for the sunrise everyday. You can find me at sunrise on deck 10 aft with a cup of coffee from the beverage station.

Now THAT is taking full advantage of the prepaid meals on the ship!
