Why did they search the room? Diana

Here is the link to the thread about the room search;

The room was searched while the ship was at St. Thomas. No one explained why their room was searched, either their name set off warning bells or the room was randomly searched.

Bo'sMom was upset because her and her dh had decided to go to breakfast and their ds (11) decided to sleep some more and while they were gone is when Immigration came to their door. I guess the ds eventually had to go with a DCL CM and find his parents onboard.

It is an interesting thread, a lot of opinions though.

Jen, you can't be in a 12 because they only sleep 3 so you have to get at least an 11. 6107 is a good location! We wear matching Disney tshirts...actually the same ones for the past two years so we may continue the trend. Shorts were great for our 11/15/03 cruise but 12/4/04 it was chilly & windy. We changed out of the shorts into jeans & needed our jackets on deck 9. Sunday morning we woke up to balmy weather & that continued all week. I need to unpack the Santa hats & put those aside with the other cruise stuff soon!

The great thing about the cruise getting closer is that it is closer . . . the bad thing is now we have to stop dreaming, and start packing and working to be ready . . . . GROAN . . . .

Packing is NO FUN!

 

[lbgraves]

Well, John, if you didn't wait so late to start packing! I'm actually running behind schedule this year. I didn't want to make Amy cancel the cruise.

 

[MrsMork]

It's awfully quiet this morning. Is everyone watching college football?

 

[lbgraves]

Actually, Jimmy Neutron is on right now. DS has decided to take a nap & is rocking with DH. I think that it might be part of him being nervous about turning 7 on Monday. I have been to the grocery store today & dealt with a few falls outside with DS & his new scooter. I need to run to WM to get more stich wichery (sp?) to finish up the curtains & the girls skirts. I am debating about making labels for the Christmas cards or just printing them right on the envies. Hmmm...I need to wrap & pack the gifts that need to be mailed out for family. One of our nephew's bday is today & we missed the other one's last month. Just too hectic around here. That will be easy to do though since I just need to print up the label at home & drop them off at the FedEx place. I don't think that I will put anything else on my list for today. A nap sounds good if I have some spare time.

 

[MrsMork]

My Goodness, Lisa! 5 more minutes to the USC football game for me. I should be digging this place out to get ready for Thanksgiving, but I'm really procrastinating this year. Lots of illness in our extended family right now, so the gathering will be much smaller. Around 25 people vs. the 40 we usually have. Just having a bit of difficulty getting into it due to the illnesses.

Just chillin' this afternoon. Have some errands to run. Buying some basics for the cruise..

Ducks are on tonight. I will probably Tivo it and watch it later.

Bringing out the suitcases today........less than a month to do everything

 

[lbgraves]

Hey there guys! I found Disney Christmas cards at Walgreen's this afternoon! They don't have them at our local Dollar Tree so I thought that I was out of luck. There are plenty of cards in the drawer that were free a couple years ago with a great webbuck deal at the store BUT I wanted to send Disney ones. There are sets with Mickey & Pooh. 3 boxes for 3.99 thru tonight! SOOOO now I need to get these addressed. LOL! It was too late to try to deal with WM's parking lot. I HATE THAT STORE! It is the only place in town that sells the stuff I need so I will go there Monday morning after dropping the kids off at school.

 

[MrsMork]

DVC newsletter said they are having the Christmas gathering at the back gates to Epcot on Thursdays again this Dec. We plan on attending 12/8. Anyone else DVC members who will be going?

 

[lillygator]

Watching football here.....CRAPPY day for the Gators but I am happy for Spurrier. I wish he would have said "this is for you Foley!".....

I am still trying to clean house, does it ever end?

 

[cristit14]

No, Vanessa, I don't think the housecleaning ever ends.... at least until the kids are grown and gone. I feel like all I do is laundry and clean the kitchen. I am trying to clean up today since my parents, Brad's parents and his sister and family are all coming over tomorrow to celebrate Rachel's b'day.

I am completely losing it. I was just outside screaming at the back fence neighbors dog. They have a beagle that is totally out of control. He/she howls constantly all day long every day. It keeps digging under our fence and sticking its head through and howling some more. I just took out a couple of bricks to put in the holes and I was yelling at him that if he didn't move his head I was going to drop the brick on it. Unfortunately he moved it before I got over there. Now, don't get me wrong. I love dogs . I have one of my own and he does his share of barking, but the howling beagle has got to stop. before I go crazy . Where is a konk cooler when you need one.

I am surrounded by laundry. Gotta do a few loads today. Ran my errands. My toiletries are packed and the suitcases are out.

Angie, my cousin and husband are DVC members. They may hit the party before going to the 6:45pm Candlelight Processional. I volunteered to watch the 2 kids so my cousin, her DH, my aunt and uncle could go to the CP and then dinner. I love watching the kids as I don't have any of my own....yet.

Weather is warm this weekend. I miss the seasons.

Not a big fan of WM either; Target on the other hand.

 

[lbgraves]

Oh Target!!! That is a wonderful place to be! Have you guys checked out the dollar section yet? I found some adorable Christmas plates there. Now I just need to decide on the snowman, Santa, or the other one that I can't remember. Maybe I will get a combo of two of them. I did pick up a Santa spoonrest since our old one is broken & needed to go.

 

[lillygator]

Our Target dollar section had some very cute xmas gift bags/boxes trimmed with fur....


I am online now looking for a garment bag. I have one for DH and I but I would rather hang all the girls' things that I can. The bags I like seem rather small.

I have almost cleared off our dining room table!! You can actually see parts of it! Watching Auburn/GA game....GO AUBURN! Nah, it really doesn't matter I was hoping Bama would win since they had a legit shot at the national championship and if it can't be the Gators - at least keep it in the SEC. So now there is no need for us to order tickets to the SEC game tomorrow.

 

[lbgraves]

Vanessa, have you tried overstock.com? They have some pretty good deals.

My dining room table is full of scrapping stuff. I am working on both of the kid's birthday books, DD's 1st year baby book, & started on our holiday book tonight.

Is anyone else REALLY glad that we are booked on an Eastern? We were originally booked on the 12/17 Western but didn't really care for the ports as much last year so switched it to this one.

 

[jordanyosh]

Good evening everyone. Just checking in. Starting packing...

 

[lbgraves]

Yeah, right! You are just waiting for us to post so you can claim 1600 tonight.
