[kimerinc]

Bella,

I just looked at the manafest, You are right down the hall from us! Now we can have all those crazy things the beckabrandi group has!

Ok, so I forget what they are, but cool! And you have one of the 6 year old princesses I see. What a group they are going to be!

Kim

 

[pjpoohbear]

me too, pj
maybe we could get a henna one like elaine

I have my design already. I will take a picture of it tonight and post it tonight. It is a single line drawing of mickey from a pressed quarter at the Compemtory Resort. Can they do a custom design in henna?

[DSharpe]

You all went to get massages and facials because the kids are in school huh...

Kim

no facial today - maybe next week?

i DID go to the pool - all by myself!!

 

[kimerinc]

Ok, I want to make sure I do this right tonight

First I do Palo
Then I do excursions
Then I do spa
Then I do kids club

Is this right?


Also, the spa treatment I really really want is only available onboard. So, should I book an alternate just in case or do you think I will get it anyway?

Can you tell I am barely functional at work today? Between this week here, DD's first bus ride, school starting and this, well.... lets just say not one of my more productive days...

Kim- what could be more important than getting your ressies made? and you cannot do that without a proper plan, now can you??

Pj

If they are a good artist they can

 

[DSharpe]

I have seen PEZ I have not seen OBX. Outer banks of what?

 

[DSharpe]

I have seen PEZ I have not seen OBX. Outer banks of what?

The Outer Banks of North Carolina® is a chain of barrier islands midway on the Atlantic Seaboard, 90 miles south of Norfolk, Virginia and 321 miles north of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. From Virginia, we're accessible by Highways 168 and 158 and in North Carolina by Highway 64. Surrounded by 900 square miles of water, we have the third largest estuary system in the world, wildlife refuges, maritime forests, the Cape Hatteras National Seashore and the highest sand dunes on the East Coast at Jockey's Ridge State Park.

 

[becka]

The Disney PEZ are cute. My DS really loves PEZ and he has a Mickey and a Donald and probably a few other Disney ones I can 't remember right now. I also got DD a Cinderella one.

 

[DSharpe]

Becka - I had a homemade margarita last night - shall I have one on your behalf tonight??? Really, I would do that for you. You being so generous with the smilies and all. Just let me know!!

 

[DSharpe]

A long time ago I asked if anyone had a cruise coutdown list. Do you? I hope I'm not going to have to OCD one up for myself!! LOL
I was thinking of having a pre-cruise party here next weekend and was trying to think of things that our group needs to be sure and take care of in advance.

 

[Bella2000]

DS has a birthday party tomorrow afternoon at the Little Gym for a classmate of his.

DD's 4th birthday party was at the Little Gym. She loved it. They had her lay in the middle of that bouncy thing as it blew up - she still remembers it.

 

[Bella2000]

Good Morning (Here) and Good Afternoon (There) Everyone! I won't even try to catch up. It's like trying to jump on to a fast moving train. SO I think I'll just become a lurker.

I now bookmark the last page I was on into my main bookmarks bar so I just click on it to know where I left off. Then I don't need to write down the page number and when I sign off I delete the old bookmark and add the new one. So far it's working. Of course I just started this new 'procedure"

 

[Bella2000]

I am so wierd that when I have to go to work conferences that are longer than 3 days, she come with me and either my parents, or her babysitter get a free trip. I used to wonder if it was because it took us so long to get her, but I think most parents feel that twing of "She has left my control" DANGER DANGER.Kim

Call me weird too - until last year she came on my longer trips. We'd work our family schedule around the conferences. She recently asked why she can't attend them anymore - she feels slighted now that she is older she stays home with her Dad.

Great minds Kim, or should I say absent minds These are my questions as well. Of course I also started reading some of the August trip reports and started wondering (scary wonder) about the 4 day vs. the 7 day, because some of the things I am reading from recent cruisers I did not experience on the 4 day

1. Yellow or dirtywater in the Goofy pool? What's up with that -

2. The towel/seat hog thing
3. Are we going to be left behind in Costa Maya with David and Ivan

Kim- what could be more important than getting your ressies made? and you cannot do that without a proper plan, now can you??

Exactly!! That is what I would say to my boss - okay well that's not exactly true but I might think it. The thing is he is such a nice guy he would probably say he understood making me feel very guilty.

Kim - I would absolutley NOT WORRY about your ressies...once onboard Concierge will completely take care of you. We ate at Palo two or three dinners and they also were ablt to accomodate spa appts when I was previously told non were avail and coordinated additional Flounder's times for us.

You, and I mean everyone of you that does not know this trick, know that you can just look in your "User CP" and it will take you to your subscribed threads then when you see ours, just click on the little blue down arrow and it take you to the first post that was posted since you last visited, right? Now go experiment, right now.

Afternoon....don't know if I'll be chatting tonight.....gotta get some sleep!

Lisa - the kids look so great! Love the princess lunchbox!

I picked up a couple of those two years ago at Target's clearance. The one last year has a rip inside the top part so I brought out the new one this morning. You can't see it, but the backpack matches.

More specifically...book brunch first, then dinner at Palo. Don't forget to book for as many people as they will let you for brunch as a back up for the Monday 10:30 group plan. All of the CC members can do the same thing at the 90 day mark and we shouldn't need too many more spots when we board. When you see People 1-2 click on that small window & it should show you a drop down menu that has 1-2 and 3-4.
