2006 DVC Member Cruise - SSMC06 - October 22, 2006 Part 2

[#1Mouse]

Mary those flags are so cute. Guess I need to get my flag pole and holder fixed - it didn't make it through one of our wind storms.

Oh, Carol did you see those flags - one more thing for us to order! It will be fun and besides it will give our family just one more thing to talk about

Oh my gosh, those flags are tooooo cute. Gotta have.

Mary, how do you find all these goodies???? I loved the furniture. My daughter said she saw the MM set and she thought it was made quite well. The pooh furniture would look really good in my pooh bedroom. (Shhh, don't tell my dh I said that)

Hey guys you can all help me out. You can be a focus group for me. I just updated the links page that was on the main cruise forum into a new FAQ. Let me know what you think.


FAQ

It looks good. One link I might suggest is to the Ultimate Packing list (now if only I can find that link).

 

[WDWLVR]

Sandy - great idea. If you find that link we'll be happy to add it.

 

[gometros]

I'll look. I thought I has it bookmarked. I know I have it in the Word doc I use for my trip planning.

In the meantime, I don't usually pay attention to rumours, but this thread piqued my interest. It could be ready for us too:

I saw that thought most of the ideas were a bit over the top. I thought I saw something about "The Black Pearl" coming to CC. Wonder if it will be a ship they will take people out on or if it will be a stationary ship that the kids can play on. Maybe that is the big secret.

 

[WDWLVR]

Mary the flags look great. We may have to think about getting that set. We have a set right now but they are really wearing out.

 

[fireplug]

You gals better get ordering. We already have the Christmas and new-years flags. We got an advertisement in the mail for them.

I figured all you Disneyholics would already have them so I am sorry not to have mentioned them before

Mary - we're driving down as well. After all we need the extra space to bring all gifts back

And extra stuff for us over packers!

And I wanted to add this link - think I might have to order some new Disney flags for the house - the ones I have been so beaten up by the winds we've had this year!

WOW! I would love those as maybe a birthday gift. You just never know who might be reading out there looking for perfect gift ideas.

I have so many flags. I thought they were kind of being phased out as they are harder and harder to find. I do need to replace some -- and I have very few Disney ones.


Beautiful mild day here in Chicago. We went to the Brookfield Zoo. I don't remember the last time we all went as a family -- usually I take the kids with the daycare during the week. It was a nice change of pace as we actually did some things that I don't do with the daycare as it gets kind of hard.

I still freak out a bit in Tropic World which is where the little boy fell in by the gorillas in 1996. It doesn't look like the zoo has changed much since that happened and it always makes me a bit worried. I know I will never take my daycare in there just because of that. Anyway, we had fun and picked up pizza on the way home. Gary's watching the Bears game, kids are watching Back to the Future and I'm just resting my feet.

 

[iluvdisney]

Okay Steve - you beat me on that one! I just pulled the advertisement and put it aside from the Sunday paper. I had a drawer full of Disney flags that are quite dated and worn out - the weather has been brutal on some of them. I think I will be ordering mine today!

I actually worked with the some of the Firefighters who were there that day and helped out after the child was rescued. They were on Kankaee City Fire

WE HAD SOMETHING DISNEY THAT MARY DIDNT

I figured you just put yours away for winter. We are about the only folks who have them out right now around here.

ANYWAY I bow to the Queen of disney collecting. You really do have a WONDERFUL collection

Awesome they were there. I do remember hearing that at the time, just didn't realize they were people you knew. I know the child was not harmed by the gorilla and it's just terrific that if it was going to happen, the accident happened the way that it did.

I thank you and your colleagues for the jobs you do.




Hey, Diana, what did you do with the smilies?

I haven't been on the boards all day. Cropping my little heart out. I'm uploading the pictures of the layouts to photbucket now and it's taking about a year, so I'm going to watch Desperate Housewives while they load. I'll post them once they're up.

I can't wait to see your pics!
I had a good time at my crop. One lady had a TON of different sizzlets! I think I spent a good 45 minutes just using her cool stuff.

Looks like you guys had a little fun on the boards today. I see Steve was at it again. Watermellon flip flop contest!? What will he think of next?

 

[Diana Lyn]

OK folks....here's the link to my scrapbook. Hope you don't mind my horrible picture taking, I didn't take them out of the page protectors so there's a glare from the flash! http://photobucket.com/albums/a113/dianalyn1225/Cruise Scrapbook/

Diana -

Great scrapbook.... Did you get the scrapbook on board?

 

[scrappy910]

Diana,

Nice job on your album. I wish I was so creative. I can copy ideas from idea books, but as far as coming up with page designs on my own, it just doesn't work. You really did a great job.

Thanks! Yep, that's the one from onboard. I'm not crazy about it because the pages don't lie flat and I have to trip a teeny bit off 12x12 paper, but it works and it has Mickey on the cover!
