I'll tell you what I DO know.....there are new cruise docks in both Antigua and St. Lucia, no tendering there.

Stacey - thanks for the info on Antiqua and St. Lucia. So we might only have to tender at St. Thomas.

Yes we are talking about Mitch Miller. Do you know the answer?

 

[justmestace]

Ummmm....he wrote the music to the theme song?

 

[WDWLVR]

No - would you like to try again?

 

[justmestace]

Can't we make these multiple choice??

All I remember about him is that I thought he was scary looking!

 

[paulcrsb]

He was scary looking wasn't he?

I give up....where's Virgil? Or jilljill??

 

[WDWLVR]

Ok - here's the connection. Bob McGrath spent 5 years as one of the lead tenor's on Sing Along With Mitch. He's also one of the original hosts of Sesame Street.

Check this out. Bob McGrath

 

[justmestace]

Now Bob I DO remember!
More because of Megan, though. I guess I'm stuck somewhere between Sing Along With Mitch and Sesame Street.
Follow the bouncing ball....yep.

 

[paulcrsb]

Mary! No fair! He's from Illinois. You've got the inside track!

Paul

Face it guys I just have a head full of useless information.

BTW - as a very little girl (I'm not that old) I thought Bob was cute (still do). Sing Along With Mitch was a staple at our house as it was one of my grandmothers favorite shows. When you are 5 years old grandma rules the TV (especially since it was the only one in the house).

Well all time to go to bed. Have a great evening everyone.

I was sending my suitcase on its way to FL with my friend. (Sorry for telling you that )

I have never heard of this Mitch person so I would have been no help.

Night all...Got a job interview tomorrow.....

 

[justmestace]

Lynda....sounds like you had a really fun Grandma! Mine kept doilies on the arms of her couch (I asked her once why she kept "them rags" on there...thought she was gonna have a heart attack!)
She wasn't a whole lot of fun.

I've spent the last I don't know how many hours reading delswife's trip report. She should write a book! Too, too funny.

GOOD THURSDAY MORNING TO ALL OF THE HOLIDAY CRUISERS!!!

 

[WDWLVR]

Good Morning Cruisers!

How is everything doing?

Rainy here in Chicago, but still a beautiful day.

For me it is Friday since I'm taking tomorrow off.

Out of trivia for the moment

Has everyone looked over the excursions for Antiqua?

I've been reading about November cruisers calling and placing their REAS appointments. Hmmmmm - wonder if we should be calling soon.

 

[gail1771]

Good Morning everyone. Happy Thursday. Wow, I had a lot of posts to catch up on in the past few days.

Mary I received your pm. I will pm you today.

When I read your post on who I resemble I was eatting my reakfast this morning and started choking as I was laughing so hard. Thanks for the compliment. I wish I was that classy mom.
My children fought all night last night ans the way I handled it was not to classy. Tehy were literally going to go at each other last night. Must of been the heat.

We have been super busy with end of year school stuff, the house and all DD doctor's appointments.DH starts a huge job this Monday so I will not be seeing him very much over the next few months. It will pay for the cruise!!!!! We are hoping to take the children to Mystic, Conn. mid July for a long weekend and hopefully a few days off the end of August. We shall see.

I loved all the Trivia. I use to watch all those shows. I also loved "I love Lucy". She still cracks me up on the reruns!!!! Modsquad and hawaii five O we use to watch also. Oh and the Brady Bunch!!!!!!

Hot and Sticky here this AM. We are expecting thunderstorms.

Have a great day everyone. Gail

 

[WDWLVR]

Gail - so nice to see you posting. Sounds like you have been busy, busy, busy.

I've never been to Mystic but I have heard their aquarium is wonderful.

The only good thing about the Thunderstorms is that cool air is behind it. We were in the upper 80's yesterday and we'll be in the low 70's today.
