12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 5

[MrsMork]

DH came on Yahoo messenger this evening, but I had put away our microphone and forgot where I put it. So we could hear him, but I had to type replies. Well DD Dina kept yelling "Daddy!" and wanting him to reply! I did finally find the mic do she could talk to him. She wants him to take her to Wawa tomorrow for candy! Hmmmm... long plane ride for candy!

That is so weird. I was just going to ask about DH's trip. DS called or I would have been typing it at the same time as you.

Oh crud. I just remembered that I HAVE to get the financial report done for Girl Scouts that was due in June. Someone is coming to pick it up tomorrow morning.

 

[pyramid2000]

He said it is very HOT there right now. Well duh! It is Egypt after all!

 

[MrsMork]

Angie, yourself and DrHugs are the sweetest GPs taking Aaron with you. That's one disadvantage with a big family. My DM has 16 grandkids so she couldn't even think about it. My oldest was her 9th!

We took all 5 of ours and 2 of our 3 kids and their spouses on a 4 day in 2003 using our DVC points. We did have a ball and the kids will always remember it.

 

[pyramid2000]

The first time I went it was September and I thought I was going to die from the heat!! DH hasn't been there during the summer for a long time so I guess he has memory loss about it!

My parent's 50th anniversary is in 3 years. I have informed everyone that we are ALL going on DCL for it! Now, who should foot the bill? I told my mom it would be them!

 

[MrsMork]

He said it is very HOT there right now. Well duh! It is Egypt after all!

He's been away long enough that he is not used to it now?

 

[pyramid2000]

We actually asked a few people on our Bermuda cruise about it. There were quite a number of large groups and some for anniversaries. We got mixed responses about who paid. I just like to tease my mom.

I'm sure she agreed to that too! "Great give for you and Dad, you get to take us all on a Disney Cruise!" Sounds like our kids!

 

[pyramid2000]

He's been away long enough that he is not used to it now?

They cry about the heat here all the time! I think it really has to do with air conditioning. I have a whole theory about it. I think kids spend less and less time outside because they are so used to the cool air INSIDE! KWIM?

Same with DH. He is used to the heat from working in the kitchen, but he freezes me out at home! His dad is funny about it. They have AC in their apartment now and he turns it on and off, on and off all the time because he can't get used to it!

I would think everyone would pay for their own and all the kids pitch in and pay for Mom and Dad's since it is their 50th anniversary. (That is if all are financially able to do that.) HMMMM. I should copy this and send it to our kids.

 

[pyramid2000]

There is a grand total of 33 of us now with kids, spouses, grand kids, and great grandkids now. I have told everyone to start saving NOW!!! I will go by myself if I have to!

 

[pyramid2000]

Funny thing is, my dad probably wouldn't want to go. Mom says oh well, she will go with or without him!

Too funny!

And THAT is how their marriage has survived 50 years!

 

[pyramid2000]

Do you know if the suites get Fl discount rates? My uncle is moving there in a few weeks and we could get one if he comes with us! I could them just get him a Cat 11 room and pay for it. He would be up to that!

 

[MrsMork]

Quiet here tonight.

 

[pyramid2000]

I don't know how my mom had survived! My dad has a LOUD mouth and likes to yell, er, speak before he thinks. But mom goes on little trips with her friends all the time because my dad never wants to go. They did go on an Alaska cruise. My dad has always wanted us ALL to go and live there. NOT!!

 

[pyramid2000]

Quiet here tonight.

I think it is just me and you!

So, he's the FL resident and you get the suite at Fl discount rates and he gets the Cat 11?? V will probably know if they discount those. Sounds like a plan to me.
