2006 DVC Member Cruise - SSMC06 - October 22, 2006 Part 5

[alikat99]

I saw a picture over on the DVC forums of someone who framed it with a plain white frame with no glass. I like that idea. I think they said they were able to buy a ready-made from which helps too.

That's what I was thinking, a nice white frame!

Our giclee came today via Fed Ex.

Along with a dog bone for our dog! I think the Fed Ex lady is trying to bribe the dogs.

Congrats!!! A dog bone????

Our giclee came today via Fed Ex.

Congrats!!...Does that mean they are in the Chicago area??? I sure hope so!!

 

[tinkerbelle77]

Some of the stuff on there was a little different--like ask your room steward for an extra compass? And pack your old socks and undies and don't bring them home to get more luggage space.

The old socks and undies is definetaly gross...Tim told me thats how he packs...Guess whos paking his suitcases??? ME!!! No nasty undies or socks with me on any trips!

I really like it. It is nicer that I expected. Here is a dumb question. Do you hang it as is or put it in some kind of frame?

Congrats! ...I'm going to frame mine, if it ever gets here!

 

[tinkerbelle77]

Must have been before or after they dropped off ours!

I love it!!

I can't wait to have it framed. I knew what it looked like from the DVC board but had no idea just how cool it was going to look in actuality.

Congrats, Cindy!! I hope mine is at home when I get there!!

 

[Garfield]

Ohhhh, yes! Go Magglio, indeed!!!
(And he's a pretty good baseball player, too... )

So Karen, I gather that Magglio is one hot dude?

 

[tinkerbelle77]

I refuse to do laundry on board ship... too many FUN activities to do.

On our Panama Canal trip, we really did mail some things home... some of which was laundry! Looking back now, it would have been much cheaper to throw the 2 sets of 17 days of underwear away to have the luggage space. (ha!... go figure!)

For our 4 day cruise, it wouldn't buy you too much space.

We are packing an extra cloth bag just in case we do need more luggage due to the gifts we receive onboard.

We are double packing...one smaller suitcase inside of a larger one!

Yeah! More are being delivered!

Cindy I agree with you. I thought it looked cool on the DVC board but it looks even better in person.

I was a bit disappointed because the way people were talking over there the outside box was cool so when I saw this plain brown box I was sad. Then I opened it up and saw the fun box inside. Love the pop up candles!

Did you all also see there are people over on the DVC forums who are against DVC wasting our money for this (though I really think it comes out of the marketing budget). Of course many of them are most likely also the ones who don't like the idea of a Member Cruise because it is a rip-off.

That print put a smile on my face for the rest of the day!

I can't get my candles to pop up

Does the money for the DVC marketing budget come out of our maintenance fees? I didn't think it did.

Sure the Member Cruise cost more, but does that make it a rip off - I guess to some it does, but we'll have fun without them anyways

Wasting money...it sure looks like an incredible gift...I cant wait to see it in person...those are the type of people that will sell it for a profit!

But not our dog.

Tony ( ) has such a bad wrap around our neighborhood. For some reason, our letter carrier Matt is afraid of him? I know Matt gives treats to the other dogs around, but never to Tony. Matt thinks that Tony is out to get him because he wears a uniform. What Matt doesn't realize is that Tony would need to find a new home if he ever showed any type of aggression.

That's okay, Tony has enough treats here. Silly dog, won't even go outside without the bribe of one (shhhh, don't tell Gary ).

Our 16 lb lhaso apso is known as psycho dog around the neighborhood

I guess that's why there are 9 of them already listed on ebay. Not to mention the 6 or so which have already been sold. They are not for everyone and we all have the right to do what we want to do with them.

What I don't agree with is that some can buy extras from DVC (because they are members) and then re-sell them on ebay.

I think it's really nice that everyone is getting one. But I can see the argument where it's not right to resell them if bought directly through DVC. In that case, it's going to end up costing someone (us??) more because there are those ebay sharks looking to make a profit.

!!!

Well, you know that saying about beauty being in the eye of the beholder... I am rather fond of "beholding" Mr. Ordonez...

Curt doesn't feel quite the same way about him, for some reason.

And the drooling smiley is pretty accurate.
