12/09/06 Geeks.... Lost, but not forgotten

[pyramid2000]

I am so jealous of all of you! Why can't it be at the end of August again?

I think I will be changing my dummy date to the Halloween cruise in 2010. The girls have off that Thursday and Friday, so only 3 days missed. I am thinking of taking them to Bermuda on RCCL late spring/early summer next year... I get a little more bang for the buck for their 5-day and the ship is beautiful, not to mention Bermuda. We shall see....

Caroline,

Did Ibrahim have a good journey home?

Lisa, I already found something that would be very cool in Madeira, they have these really cool cable cars that take you to an "antique" town in the hills.

Lisa, so I take it I have a "date" lol. Well, we will see how William feels then, lol.

Are you teaming up for dinner with anyone or doing a family table this time?

Pj

I would be setting myself up for a terrible cruise if we sat alone...never done it and don't intend to. Right now I think there are two other families each with kids the same age...the three girls will be on one end and the four boys on the other end of the table. LOL! I think we total 13 but could always add on 3 more. Of course, we could always have 9 adults at one table and the kids right next to us. We would be our own station then.

It is nice to have personal TA along. LOL! They have embroidery in that area too. I didn't realize that we would technically be visiting part of Africa when we booked the cruise. Too cool!

So fellow WBTA cruisers...does DLP sound like a good way to start the trip to you? How many days are you thinking about spending in Europe before the cruise?

Caroline! You need to book it then get really good knockout drugs from your doctor to take when you board the plane. You can drive from Florida.

We would love to do DLP if we can figure out the transportation. We also would love to be added to your dining group.

If I can fly out on tuesday on the redeye and spend wednesday and Thursday nights at dlp on points, then head down to BCN late Friday, that would be awesome. But will most likely be flying wednesday or even Thursday redeye straight to BCN.

Pj

Yes, reality is we too will probably fly straight to BCN. I can dream though and keep my options open!

Hmm...points...never thought of that...lots of people to talk to about that. How many points does a weekday stay at DLP run?

 

[pjpoohbear]

Looking at 2008 points chart,

Not so bad, but 3 max per room, what is that? You might need an "aunt" around to help out, lol.

Pj

 

[lbgraves]

That's wacked! Only 3 people per room? Hmmm...maybe I can make the kids forget about DLP if their Auntie PJ can't go. You know though...I don't see what the 4 stars is linked to...is there more to the page that isn't showing on your screen print? I see the 1 star and 2 stars...maybe that is tied to the 3 stars for Hong Kong...they are big on one kid per family in that part of the world???

 

[Bella2000]

ooh DLP. I am soooo jealous. Happy for you guys though.

 

[Bella2000]

Carla, watched Heros, the twists and turns have been crazy so far this year!

Pj

Mohinder's change - gross.

 

[Bella2000]

As far as future cruises, who knows around here. I was totally flabberghasted by the 5 day Wonder prices!! So I looked into Feb 2010 for Sarah's Sweet 16. Also a bit high IMHO. Also looked into a 3 day for her B-day with 6 days before hand. Now I am searching NJ teacher convention weekend in '09 and '10. Either would be over Halloween. I actually told the girls we may not be doing DCL for a long time and got quite the looks! I seem to have this need to have SOMETHING feasible booked!

WBTA could have been slightly feasible with a trip for the girls to Egypt prior to visit family, but the dates are as bad as they could get. Ibrahim is actually coming home today from Egypt, so I better get my butt moving here getting the house back in order.

Me too on the 5 day Caroline! Can you believe it - it was more than the 7 days I priced. Crazy! I hope Ibrahim had a great trip.

Caroline,

Pj

He said it was long... Guess it seems longer each time. Thanks for asking!

 

[Bella2000]

I last heard that the new dinning system will be up November 21st.

I can book my Feb trip now, but haven't had enthusiasm for it, and we are doing the quick service dinning plan, so only had one or two off plan meals anyways.

Pj

I haven't done a thing for our Dec trip. Everything has been booked since the beginning so I just was a little bummed to not immediately get into some places. I forgot all about the online available thing. I guess I'll need to read up on whats coming.

 

[Bella2000]

Brack, did you have the itchy feeling on the back of your neck for the rest of the day, eeee!

Pj

I was going to ask whether she waved.

 

[pjpoohbear]

Lisa, you are on the right track, it is for Disney Tokyo. I got too easily freaked out.
