Good Monday morning, happy cruisers!!
I don't know if y'all have Kohl's there or not, but I swear it's my new favorite store. They have all their summer stuff at 80% off, and yesterday I got Tyler Dean 2 new bathing suits for $3 apiece, and 2 really nice tank tops for -- are you ready for this? -- 75 cents apiece!! I would have gotten more if they had more in his size. I mean, 75 cents?? That's not a department store, that's a garage sale!! And these were Sonoma, regularly like $10. I'm a very happy camper.
Re: Disney Dollars -- I don't know what I would do without them!! If I have DD, I simply cannot spend them on anything else, and that really helps.

I do a lot of surveys for cash, and I cash those checks and get DD with them. It's not a lot of money, but it helps! I'm saving up the DD to buy our one-day tickets to Epcot for that Thursday when we arrive. I wish there was some sort of discount on one-day tickets, but there isn't. I wish we still had our AP's! LOL!
KandK --
Welcome!! We're a chatty bunch, so jump right in.
Terrye --
No biggie about the Alaska pin! I'll live.

Hey, we finally made it to the beach yesterday.. it was sooooo nice! And now my tan is renewed.

Oh, and can I come to your planning party?? It sounds like just too much fun!! Hey, I make the best Malibu Coladas this side of St. Thomas... I'll bring my blender and my color-coded packing list with me.
A few other things...
Count me in for high tea, too!! What fun that would be. I went to brunch at Palo with a DIS'er and her DH last time, and that was SO delicious. I'd love to do the high tea this time.
With as many of us as are shaping up to be at the Radisson that night, you *know* we gotta plan a pool-side pre-cruise DIS meet.

How fun would that be?? Then by the time we are on the ship, we'll already know who we all are and stuff. Any takers??
Well, I need more coffee... hope everyone has a great week, full of freshly-sharpened pencils and shiny new lunchboxes!
