20050514..May 14, 2005...Official Check in Disney's 1st 14 Day thru Panama Canal Part 3

[Q's My Princess]

I just started gathering some of Cammi's stuff together today. If anyone has enough clothes to pack away 14 days worth with more than enough left to wear now - it's her!

She does have a Minnie dress and shoes - I'll have to get them out and check the size though. I'm afraid they might be getting smallish.

We've never done the dress-up thing at the parks because I thought it would be too uncomfortable for our typical commando style touring. Might be really fun for dinner one night though.
She has a really beautiful princess dress too (Cinderella) but we will have to see how the luggage space is holding out as that one is pretty poofy!

So are other little ones bringing along Minnie or princess wear?
It would be a really great picture!


Now adding my chant to the rest:

We Want Star Wars!
We Really, Really Want Star Wars!

Sheila,

I am bringing at least on Princess gown for Quincy. I agree that would be a really cute picture!!

 

[Q's My Princess]

While I would love to see Stars Wars, I am hoping to see the 2 part finale of LOST. I am hoping that it will be showing as it is an ABC show. Anyone else watch LOST?

DH & I love LOST!!!

We are sooooo bummed to miss the finale! Too bad we don't have Tivo!

Tivo is the greatest invention since . . . . . . . . I don't know, but it's a great invention. We couldn't live without it.

Amen to that. We have had it for almost 5 years now, and I don't know what we would do without it. We are clearing the drive before we leave so that there is plenty of room for everything to record.

My Brother in law gave us a 20gig model for Xmas a couple of years ago. Then we upgraded to a newer 40gig model about 6 months ago. Then we upgraded again to a 80gig model just last month (the price was right). So right now, we have 3 units running. Can you say "overkill". But at least we are going to give the 20gig model to a TiVo newby.

If you bring a blank -R DVD with you......I can burn you a copy of the show. I have the Tivo with DVD recording capabilities.

Wow!
I have been out for a couple of weeks and the boards have been BUSY!
I tried to catch up but think I might have better luck, just trying to keep up from here on.
My Mom had surgery last week to remove an egg sized mass from behind her ear. So, I went down to help her when she came home from the hospital. We didn't know about the surgery until the day before it happened, it all went so fast. She is doing well now. Then the day I got back hubby was off to a conference. Ugh. Its been a nutty week. We are soo looking forward to this trip. And to hear that docs are coming ...YAHOOOOO!
I have been spending all my spare time shopping for the trip, and I think should stop, or we will need bigger bags.
So, have you guys talked about vaccinations? Our health dept. says we should make sure our Tetanus and Hep A are updated. Has anyone heard anything different?
TiVo! Oh, how we love it.
We bought ours years ago and then last year when we realized how small it was compared to what was on the market now, hubby convinced me to let him void the warranty and hack into ours. So, he replaced the hard drive with one that never seems to get full (I can't tell you how many shows are on it right now, pages and pages). And now we can log into it from where ever we are and schedule things or delete things from it. Which comes in handy when we are on trips and realize we don't want 2 weeks worth of news or "Good Eats" waiting for us when we get back.
I like the idea of multiple TiVos. Hmmmmm, we will have to see if we have any money left after the cruise.
Hey, anyone else see the lime green Mickey antenna balls at the Disney Store? I just can't pass up a new antenna ball.

What about "Ice Princess"?

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is a Touchstone picture and should be showing on our cruise. It would be great to have "Star Wars" but have they ever had a non-Disney released film on the ship?

Bruce,

DH mentioned something about an Ice Skating film too... could that be it? I just copied the note he sent me at work into the post. At least with Ice Princess, there will be one new film!

I've been on 3 prior Disney cruises, and never watched a movie, so I'm not sure about non-Disney films being shown...

Yes! That's a Wednesday night "date" for DH + me! There will be a 2 part finale. We will be at sea for BOTH of them. I'm hoping my Mom will do the taping for us! (Now... I'd Rather be at sea! But I really don't want to miss these episodes!)

If you bring a blank -R DVD with you......I can burn you a copy of the show. I have the Tivo with DVD recording capabilities.

Serena... Could you possible make us a copy of the Lost finales too!!! I will gladly bring a R DVD!

Now I'm REALLY exposing my lack of knowledge of the world of gadgets! I just now had to ask DH,

"Hey DH... what is Tivo?"

He knew! (what guy wouldn't)! We don't have it... He's going to a computer show this morning with a friend... I the purchases aren't too high at the show... maybe, we'll start looking at Tivo!

Sure sounds lilke it would be nice to have.

 

[bonzie1]

Okay! I'm up early! Getting ready to leave for the test! Thanks for the well-wishes!

I'm off!

It looks like I could change my flight from LAX to Orange County (SNA). Should I do this? The times are the same, but the airplane configuration is different.

How far to Orange County airport from port? I'll request another limo price and see what comes back.

So, post away with comments about SNA vs. LAX. Thanks.

I really need to make a final decision on this and the transportation soon! I'm tired of thinking of it.

 

[krdisneybound]

GOOD LUCK, GEORGIE

Let us know right away how it went.. We're waiting​

Not exactly sure of distance, but I would guess it would only be an extra 10 or 15 miles more max. from the port to SNA than to LAX.
Given that choice I'd change in a heartbeat. But I REALLY HATE LAX. We always try to use John Wayne (SNA) or Bob Hope (BUR) in Burbank when we fly into LA.
Notice that LAX is the only one of the 3 without a celebrities name - probably because no one wants to be associated with it.
