Doc-less in Oregon reporting in

Doc-less in Seattle, too. Say, wasn't there a movie about that...?

Bad humor, but I have to amuse myself somehow when I have no docs....

I just returned from a "little" more shopping and was VERY successful! Normally, I hate shopping for myself, but today! Wow! One store and lots of clothes later, I think I've got everything I need. What a relief...

Speaking of shopping....how is it on the Magic? Any good clothes?

Oh Yeah, you must save $75.00 for the white dcl zippered sweatshirt..
Jenn love's hers.. pricey but worth it.

 

[seaulater]

THE FAREWELL, BANNER, ADIOS PORT CANAVERAL SIGN.............................

Okay, tomorrow night I need to paint the banner..................................for our departure. The banner will be 3 feet wide and it can be as long as we want.

We had many thoughts 100's of pages ago. Here's a few from what I recall. Let's take a vote or something.

California.......here we come
From Kingdom to Kingdom
Goodbye WDW.........Next Stop DISNEYLAND
Here comes the "MAGIC" for the Ship of Fools!
DISBOARDS................family, friends, fun

I'm sure someone else out there can come up with something really great.....................Bonzie...................now is your chance............you seem to have a knack for writing!

 

[Q's My Princess]

Oh Yeah, you must save $75.00 for the white dcl zippered sweatshirt..
Jenn love's hers.. pricey but worth it.

Peter,
Where is the picture of the sweatshirt??

 

[TDC Nala]

Ask not for whom the banana dances.

He dances for me.



At least he will when the documents arrive in VA from the TA in Rhode Island, but at least I know they exist.

All is not right in the world

 

[Q's My Princess]

Hi Laurie. So which store was so productive for you? I'm terribly curious...not because I need more clothes (DH to bite his lip here!) but because I always love a good productive shopping trip!

Shopping isn't too bad, it's really Disney clothing (DCL versions of what you would find at the resorts), with some of it dressier than other stuff. Then they also have some Tommy Bahama style clothing that's usually very nice. But not a huge selection of that. I always somehow manage to find a couple of things to buy,

Kara,
I shopped at Anthropologie in Berkeley. I had been to the one in the city, but had never tried any of their clothes on. They really had some cute things!

ONCE AGAIN, RENAE:

IT'LL BE OVER SOON, SO ENJOY IT NOW..............

 

[kellib36]

Speaking of shopping....how is it on the Magic? Any good clothes?

I got a great sweater with just the DCL "wave" logo, which has held up well for 2 years and I love it! A lot of stuff, to me, looks like (sorry if this offends) old lady clothes. Maybe its "cruise casual", but NO ONE under the age of 60 wears "cruise casual" around here....I stick with the babydoll shirts, etc. I keep putting off getting one of those AWESOME tote bags.....you know, with the blue/white stripes....I've been able to procrastinate each cruise, but with being on the ship 14 days.....who knows about this time!

Also, on my first cruise, they had an inCREDible emerald and diamond tennis bracelet that I was gaga over from the first day.....I think it was Margaret (or it could have been Bianca--but it was probably Margaret--she's like that) that snuck up behind me, and told the lady to get it out.....Keith didn't take a breath til she had it back.....but it did look GREAT on me!!!! (All $3500. worth .....it was beautiful!!!)
