LOVE the graphics!! Is there one we can put in our signature? And can you make a B2B one? LOL

I don't have my details yet. I think my cabin I won't know until alot closer to the cruise...

 

[auntlynne]

I'll edit the Roll Call and Julie can put it in the first post. Now that she's finished with formal Arabic class, she'll have so much free time on her hands...not like she's got little monsters at home or overseas trips upcoming or anything like that.

Main dining, booked Cat 12 GTY at such an incredible price so no room assignment yet, Jon, Mary Ellen, Allison and Megan

Here's a "back to back" idea (not keeping with any theme to date):

If the Med group choses Huey, Dewey and Louie:

and Aladdin:

 

[grlzmom]

Wow, I love the BTB graphics you made. They are all great, you are very talented!

 

[skoi]

First post is updated, but I lost all the color formatting. I'll go in and change it later for easier reading.

I should start working on graphics too. I love to do door magnets.

And wow, two semi-formal nights! Another thing to make my suitcases heavier.

Julie

 

[auntlynne]

...okay, someone else has taken the roll call off my hands, so maybe we can post it elsewhere....

Not me! I just collected information from the posts - you are still in charge!

 

[auntlynne]

Eight days until final payments are due. Then we can pick a group logo, if y'all want.

My niece turned in her junior year high school term paper today (due date), and I'm fairly certain her mom is letting her go on this adventure. I think I'd go without her, though, if it came to that. (And I already bought airfare.)

This being in charge is due to my rather bossy nature, isn't it?

Lynne, hoping that niece's term paper makes the grade so she can share the adventure with you

I have final payment due for TA as Dec. 11th. Is it the same for the Med? My dh has my ressie stuff and I haven't seen it yet.

Love all your logos and can't wait to see which one you pick. Do you mind if we put it on magnets and tshirts, etc.?

Thanks to all who are doing the organizing and keeping up of the roll call.

I am giving dd15 and dd13 input on the excursions and so far they are in agreement on pretty much everything

Happy Friday to everyone and wishing you all an incredible weekend.

 

[skoi]

We paid off when I switched the reservation to the 12. I still haven't bought airfare, though I did buy the two tickets to Morocco (ouch- I don't want to talk about how much that was).

Does anyone else do facebook? Just wondering, as that's how I've been wasting my time lately. As if I have time for such a pointless distraction.

Julie

 

[shushh]

I facebook.

 

[grlzmom]

I facebook too!

 

[NC_Tink]

I facebook too!!! Got to love how that's now a verb

As for final payment -- for the Med - mine isn't due until 12/24. Merry Christmas!! Oh, and for those of you waiting to pay until the last moment (like me) - my TA told me that DCL closed at 8pm on 12/24 last year - so you want to make sure that your payment is in before that (I'll probably pay it on the 23rd, just to make sure it's there).

Just booked. Celebrating DW's 40th on board. What a deal with "kids cruise free"! Too bad that we don't have more kids. Maybe we should ask the neighbours...

We are Mark, Darlene and Finn (he will be 2 when we cruise).

This will be Finn's first time on the Magic and his second Disney Cruise. It will be Darlene and my third time on the Magic and our second Med. cruise.

Now, we have to find a way to BCN!

 

[skoi]

Welcome aboard Mark, Darlene and Finn!

My confirmation says 25-Dec-09 11:59P for the Med payment - hadn't thought about their being closed Christmas or closing early Christmas eve (per NC_Tink).

I figure we'll all pick the logo (once final payments are made, so it's for those who are traveling - of course, we can pick before that, too - whatever floats your boat). By all means, use away. They are on photobucket - I don't know how sharing works, but I can check it out.

Julie (skoi) is in charge of roll call (and the entire thread due to her extra time which she obviously has, since she spends time on facebook).

What are you and the girls thinking of doing for shore excursions?

Mark, Darlene and Finn -

We may be a small group, but we can make up for it in friendliness.

Lynne

Lynne

Yes. Agree 100% percent. And I know I have to be in charge of the thread due to my naturally bossy and neurotic nature.
