20050514..May 14, 2005...Official Check in Disney's 1st 14 Day thru Panama Canal Part 2

[myfairygodmother]

YEA!!!!!!!! I made my final payment today!!!!!

Now I need to decide what to do in each port--We'll probably do most of the ports on our own--I've never done any of the DCL excursions as it's always come out so much cheaper to do it ourselves. Definately have to visit Cabo Wabo Cantina and the Curaco distillery.

Does anyone have any good suggestions on sailaway gifts???? Also has anyone heard what the internet package will cost--will it be double the 7 day price or will they give us a little break?

We are on Vacation doing vacation dance.

We will take a few patches sign us up for six (6). Oh Boy a new list. I think we might also have more list than the other repo cruise folks.

House is kinda lonely as the pups went off to Puppy Camp earlier today. Flight leaves at 6:10AM so gotta get really really early to get to airport etc. but wont sleep any way.

Lynn is talking pirate outfits, the quest begins.

re: formal nights etc. The grass skirt with the tux jacket will really extend a mans formal ware posibilities.

Given all the extra plunder we will be picking up we might have to do some shipping of stuff home from CA.

JUST GIVE LESLIE A GLOW IN THE DARK NECKLACE.........................AND...............OH..................WELL...................YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE THOSE PICTURES POSTED ON HER STATEROOM DOOR DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT..................YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Linda Linda Linda..... this cruise I'M going to follow YOU around with a camera.... surely in 14 days I can catch you doing SOMETHING to post a picture of.... LOL
Seriously... I think I might now be allergic to glow necklaces...

 

[DisneyPinDiva]

Found this on the Mazatlan website.... looks like it includes a lot more than the DCL excursion for a better price. I like the fact that you can sign up for the morning half day but stay later and go back with the afternoon group if you like. Also like the open bar... ...
did I say that??? Bring on the glow necklaces...... Anyone else up for it??

Stone Island Tour, Mazatlan, Mexico

The Curacao distillery is definately on my list of must do's. I think we will do the Jeep thing in the morning, and somehow find a cab or something to take us there afterwards! I am dying to get some of the wonderful looking gift sets they show on their website!

I do believe the internet package will be double, I doubt we will get a break. At least that is what I am counting on spending.

[moocow35]

Oh boy! Another list! LOL Thanks for starting this Kendra, you can join me and the others in the wonderful world of list keeping! Please put me down for 6 patches!

Robin

After my initial checking around, it looks like the minimum order for a custom Iron on patch is 100 patches. They'll be 2.00 or a bit less, depending on the company we go with and how many we order. I'm going for the Pin design as the Patch design....

So, for those of you interested, let me know quantity desired and I'm starting a LIST!!!!

Kendra

 

[EpcotKilterFan]

2 patches here!

Thanks!

Debbie

 

[myfairygodmother]

Put me down for 4 patches!!

Now........for the rest of the story...................

Actually.....I guess it's time to come clean........Goofy daddyo actually was the one following you around with the camera and got your Gloria Gaynor shots! He just bribed me into printing out a picture on the printer in my room........

Now, all our PC friends here are saying "Seaulater brought a printer?" That would be yes! I've got this cool new little Epson picturemate so I thought I needed to try it out for Christmas. Who would have known that I would end up posting pictures on stateroom doors!!!!

We are on Vacation doing vacation dance.

Given all the extra plunder we will be picking up we might have to do some shipping of stuff home from CA.

I've already got my cardboard box that broken down fits nicely in the bottom of the suitcase, Fedex form and tape are there as well. There is a FedEx Kinkos at 800 W. Katella Avenue which is 0.65 miles from the HoJo Anaheim. They are open Saturday 9-5pm so after I check in at the HoJo on Saturday, I'll be packing a box and walking it down to FedEx--it'll get home about the same time I do and it's less stuff to worry about on the plane.

Liz (a.k.a. Dirty Ethel Vane )

 

[tap & dap]

Put us down for 6 patches as well.

Thanks

 

[JenKatt]

Just went thru the new oriental trading catalog and there is a new section for you scrapbookers. There's alot ya'll can use for the grab bags!

Put us down for 2 patches...

 

[Scott H]

Well it is 2:00AM I am up and ready to go but Lynn is sleeping, doesn't she know we leave in two hours.

I am starting to think seriously about the grass skirt and Tux Jacket, kind of a Hawaiian Kilt, yeah that's it a Hawaiian Kilt. Proof the Polynisians sailed the Atlantic to Scotland. THor Hindergal (sp?) Kontiki and Rah expeditions have nothing on this theory.

Kendra, thanks for doing the patches.

Liz, good planning on the FedX, used to do the same until we learned that it is really easy to ship stuff from the WDW hotels. I will be calling the GC to see if they offer the same service. If not, it will be off to Kinkos on Katella. Might see if there is a UPS, MBE closer.

Kelli, our Sunday looks like this, drive to Dubois to pick up the pups. SCUBA class in the afternoon from 1-5, Will PM you our phone numbers.

Leslie and Linda, all this talk of the glow in the dark things and photos, is scaring me, not really, but remember
"What happens on the Magic, Stays on the Magic"

Thanks for all the well wishes, will check in from MIA tonight. Should be warmer than the 5 degrees it is here right now.

 

[3DAN]

Bet you didn't think anybody else would be up. Hope you have fun. If you have time , tell me what you are going to do with the patches.
Bill

 

[Scott H]

Sew them on hats, coats etc. Did you take the Cat 3?

 

[3DAN]

Yes, 8034. They said take it or leave it , but if you leave it , it goes to the next name on the list. Therefore , there is still a list, but I am not sure if there are more rooms. I didn't ask. Makes me real uneasy. Did you link for Dinner? What are the pros and cons? Billy saw his peds and also his neurologist. Reggie Miller is retiring. Wow, am I stressed.
Bill

 

[3DAN]

Scott, If you have not seen a suite, you are welcome to check it out whenever. I have not seen or stayed in one before, just cat 4. I know of three disers in suites. It would be a pleasure to show anyone the room if they wish. Unfortunately , due to my stress level, I am NOT going to start a new LIST. Grab me or Angela on the ship. Its okay.
