4/29/06 Eastern Magic...We're Going!!!!!

[BLBCB]

Gosh, the only dress up I can remember is Trish's also only because she met me at the airport dressed like that, beer in hand, banana hammock sign in the other...just so I'd know who she was!! I'll let her tell that story!QUOTE]

I can't believe I almost missed this one!

Trish, you have to tell us more details.

Suzie, you have to share some pictures. I guess it would be better over at the yahoo site, but you still have to share!!!!

They only show Disney Movies in the theater - so your hope of MI3 is dashed.

 

[Snoopyto]

Gee CG, just burst my bubble. I had to go look and see who was producing it. Oh well.... I am sure I will be more than occupied between DW and all my new friends or I will be treading water in the Craibbean Sea.

 

[suziemva]

Still no docs here and no word from the TA. Anyone have a number to call?

Straight from my other TA (prior email dated 3/16)

Finally, your documents should arrive in the agency office in a few weeks – typically about 2 weeks prior to departure. ***** will then review them, contact you to confirm the address to send them to and then mail them off to you.

So, I guess ours are NOT coming straight from DCL. Wonder why there is such a difference....

Alright, I had something cute and funny to go with this but it didn't work out. No, Trish did NOT meet me at the airport wearing her wench outfit, beer in one hand, banana hammock sign in the other. She had two beers! Just kidding! Nope, just a very respectable DL Golden Mickey Ears t-shirt and jeans. Oh, and a sweet little Seattle Bear for Tori (she still sleeps with that because it's from the Real Miss Trish - as opposed to the fake one on the computer, I guess!)....sorry to let you guys down. My sick humor and all that, just that I found another sickie to play along this time!!!! But I had you going, didn't I?!?!?!?!

Wish me luck sleeping tonight. I just wrote a long email to my original TA and I'm feeling a bit bad about doing it. Unfortunately, once it's gone, it's out there. Not that I didn't mean any of it, just that I shouldn't have dumped on her, at least not by email. Oh, well, it's done.

 

[Snoopyto]

Suzie- No worries. Bottom line is you pay the TA's salary, she should be responsive. Other than the luggae tags and Bahamas Immigration form, there is nothing really in it, provided you did the online registration. The luggage tags can be done quickly by the porters at the pier.
Of course if CG's was written by chipmunks, yours probably go delegated to Gus, the mouse, to write by hand. That is pretty big pen for him hold and make it look like a computer did it. BUt you know Disney cut backs and all, the characters got to step up to the plate in these difficult financial times.

Okay it is far fetched excuse, but still an excuse for not having Docs.

 

[GrumpyC.Hook]

Sorry your doc's aren't here Suzie Hope they get here soon!

I'm off to work...only 7 more days of work for me! Gosh thats nice to say!

 

[ohsodisney]

Hi Grumpy C, thank you so much for the movies . My girls are so excited that Narnia is playing. They are only 4 but they LOVED Titanic , Harry Potter , and Lord of the Rings. I know it's a bit odd to let your kids watch some of these but they really seem to like older kids movies. We saw Chicken Little and that's another good one. The Wild of coarse is what they have been really wanting to see but it is reminding me of Madagascar.

Today is my last day of work till either the fall or next spring . I haven't decided yet.

Hey everyone,

Just checked our reservation online with Disney Cruise site, and our dining has changed from early to 6 o'clock, did not know if this means a specific dining rotation or not? With the new dining rotations I just wondered if this means we are in a certain dining room on opening night since I think it now goes by 530, 545, and then 6 o'clock.

Also the princesses are off of school today, so all ya alls countdown might be a little delayed from the Queen, as they are getting their beauty sleep.

By the way, Happy Good Friday!!!!

It wasn't that late!

 

[Belle and Rella's Dad]

Don't Get Mad

I know it is not that late right now, but if this cruise was in August everyone would have to wait until almost 11 a.m. to get their countdown. The Queen even has the baby (yeah she is 4, but she will always be the baby) sleeping in, I have four shoe loving, sleeping in, freckled face females in my group.

Would not trade it for anything!!!!!

Yes we are dressing up and no I won't say what airport security did when I walked in with my wench costume on. Emma has a costume (it's the teen pirate girl about the 4th one down on the link CG posted--believe me, they DO run small!) but we're still looking for pirate shirts for the boys.

Trish or Shyla, do you happen to have the link handy...I'm still trying to get this wrapped up for the girls and I think I have Sarah & Abby covered, but Lindsey is proving to be more difficult!

Thanks ladies!

I am very impressed with your dedication, Julie. Thank you! I would pay gold to sleep in.

I was up soooo late finishing my design for the bags for signatures - Quinn wanted a bag and not a pillow case and we decided that that would be good and would last a LOT longer and be more useful. So I have the fabric transfer paper to stitch onto the bag. I sat there last night and found out my original design didn't work at all. When I enlarged the picture I was using from MidNite here at the DIS, it distorted terribly. So I had to start from scratch. From 9-11 pm I was at a creative mindblock. I was totally paralyzed. Then when my husband told me to go to bed and work on it tomorrow, I suddenly got all creative - talk about being stubborn . So needless to say, I love it, but I was up waaaay tooo late. I am also going to use it for a door sign so I will post it soon, I just need to buy some graphics today to finish it from one of my favorite designers. For all you paper scrapbookers, it's like a permissable spending spree on scrapbooking stuff - WOOHOOOO!!!!! Although, most kits costs in the range of $3 so it's not like I am going to break the bank here, but it's fun like shoe shopping.

Nikki, I am going to use your design for the autograph book. It looked great that way last night. Thank you sooo much!

Finally got an answer from our TA at 11:58 last night! She said that the docs arrived in her office yesterday, she's sending them out priority mail and we should have them by Tuesday. Barb, call your TA. She should have them by now. Keep hounding her. I'd be nervous too if I was leaving in a week and no docs! Heck, they may have to send them to you at WDW! That's a hoot since that's the area they originate from!

So, a little stress off me but until they are in my hot little hands...well. Snoopyto, I do like the idea of Gus-gus writing them out! But I'd have to save them as souvenirs and not use them and that just won't do, so we won't think like that, will we?!

Pat, where are you? Wondering how your recovery is going!

Tom and Julie, okay, a little early to gag us all! Just kidding, I think it's very sweet, you guys!

No plans to go out today, which is good. Had a heart attack when I had to get gas for the ol' Subby the other day! Good Lord! At that price, we'll be walking a lot this summer! It'll cost me between $150 and $200 to fill that sucker up! So, guess I'll continue my packing. Trish, how's it going? Did you get time last night? Gosh, I really have to check out my shoe situation now....did buy a new pair of thongs last night that are really comfortable. And cute. Just wish they'd been on sale...bummer...hate paying so much for thongs.....oh, well, they fit and I like them! Shoe Shoppers Unite!

Late start today with such a bad night sleeping. Finally got to sleep about 1:15 this morning and slept till 9:20 ish. Tori's got massive allergies and runny nose along with a fever....geez, this kid has never been so sick lately! Poor baby! Hopefully it goes away today. So, we are making Jello eggs and possibly some cookies for daddy. She loves to help in the kitchen and is fascinated with cooking! Got to love that! Mom says that I was the same way.

Have a great day everyone! Will be checking in later!

 

[suziemva]

Barb, this is the picture....same outfit? I think so!

This was two years ago before we took my dad to Disney with us. I think Tori was about 1 1/2 years old at the time! WOW, she's grown!

 

[BLBCB]

Barb, this is the picture....same outfit? I think so!

Suzie

Not the same outfit. I've got to get everyone to try them on today to make sure everything still fits. We even got the matching sandals. I know, pathetic. I'll see if I can get a picture and post it on the yahoo site. I think we are wearing them the day we board the ship, so everyone will certainly know who we are!! I think I'll have to get a picture of our town too, since I don't think you believed me Suzie. It really is just a couple of houses on either side of the highway. What do you expect from a place that's name ends in "ville"! Rednecks unite! Thanks for the phone call and pep talk by the way. Contrary to what you say, I think you are the sweetest person.

Len is installing my outside door today. I will have a real key and everything. It's amazing how someone can be excited about the simplest things.

Have a wonderful Disney Day everyone.

Barb

Hey, I've heard of people being happy about getting a new toilet installed, so I believe anything can get anyone excited! Happy box hunting to you!!!

Okay, now get out of bed and get going! Not all of us can sleep in....Right, Julie? Julie? You awake? Just kidding! I think you were still up way before I was...Boy, I'm getting spoiled! Or cruise ready, not sure which one!
