Is it time?

Yep. Time for a T.O.P.

Okay, I know National Car Rental doesn't have a transfer bus from the port. We have decided to go house hunting after the cruise, what a way to dampen our cruise high...So, we need to rent a car in Port Canaveral and return it to the Atlanta airport. National was $150 cheaper than the others, so I picked them.

After the saga...what's the best way for my husband to go pick up our car at National Car Rental on N. Atlantic Hwy in Cocoa Beach?

Thank you!

Posting again to seek a response...

Susan -- You need to call National and they can get you a cab at a negotiated rate. You still have to pay for it, but I think the negotiated rate is $11. They used to pay for it, but when I called them they said they no longer did that. Look up their direct number on the national website and then call them direct to see what they are doing now.

Thanks... so it looks like the entrance may be between the elevators??? I just need to know whether magnets will work for the stuff on my door, or if I should switch to crazy glue with all the kids tromping by...

Yes. Entrance is between the two banks of mid-ship elevators.

My take on AI


Elliott can sing, but he just doesn't do it for me as a performer.

Katherine was good last night but I didn't see her performance of Over the Rainbow as great as others thought it to be. I liked her last performance better (though that outfit was wierd to me).

Taylor - what can I say I love him! Is he the best singer of the bunch? No! Is he the best performer? Yes! 3 great songs and I thought he did them all well.

Needless to say you can tell who I voted for (but only got through about 10 times and then I stopped.

I really liked Katharine's middle song mostly because it turn into a scream fest 1/2 way through. I thought it more showcased her vocal abilities. I'm impressed with her abilites shown in this song and the "black horse in a cherry tree" song....to be able to sing that well while sitting and not fully expanding the diaphragm is impressive.

I only got through to Taylor's number about 5 times. Busy all the rest of the time. Dialidol has him pretty safe though....FWIW.

When voting last night for AI, were you getting some sort of strange ad instead of the "thank you for voting for contestant #3" spiel? Or the "thanks for voting for me, Taylor" thing????

That's what I was thinking... and the whole time she was sitting there, I could hear my old voice teacher in the back of my mind yelling, "STAND UP... you'll never maintain your pitch and breath control sitting down!!!"

Cruise question ...

I booked the 2-day package at Castaway Cay that includes bike rentals. Does anyone know if the children's bikes have training wheels? I assume that they have various sizes of bikes for kids.

I always got the "thanks for voting for me". I only dialed in on the persons first number. I did read over on the CB that dialidol was only charting the first two numbers for each. So I wonder if the results they are showing are true (my thinking is yes but you never know).

Just got a e-mail from a company that I deal with for promotional items... found the PERFECT hat to make the Double Scoop Group 'stand out' in a crowd!!!...

I'll pass

 

[CastawayCayAllTheWay]

OHMinnie, thanks for the info on the beach toys! Sounds good! I think I'll head over to TRU today! I am so excited! Its really starting to get close now! Yay!

 

[kikipug]

I'll pass

Isn't that the most awful thing you've seen! (Well... besides the lime green thong... come to think of it, wouldn't THAT make a great ensemble!!!)

 

[CastawayCayAllTheWay]

That is pretty bad. But hilarious!

 

[scuba diver]

Your office has got a ways to go in terms of stacks of adult beverages in order to catch up with mine!

You might have the gross number, but I have Double Scoop private label wine. I know you can't say that.

 

[chip&dale&fun]

Nope. Not me. I stick whatever I can on the Disney Visa to get points. We'll be heading to the cruise with $609 courtesy of Disney Visa! Ya just gotta be careful that you pay off the balance each week,....b/c getting $609 but paying $1000 in interest to get it isn't cool!!

I did find out I can call FL Tours a couple of days before the trip and put my car on my Visa....going to do that too. I really don't *like* carrying that much cash. I'll bet we'll have less than $200 cash for the trip.

Cool! Caught up to a U TOP shared with Stacey!

Many places in Mexico - including local tours - require cash...this is new for us, we never carry cash anymore...

Memo to self....remember to go to the bank!

 

[chip&dale&fun]

My answer....yes.

Besides, once you sit down, no one will see your feet!!!

And besides, the only people you have to impress are your fellow DIS boarders....and we love you no matter what shoes you're wearing. Heck, I probably wouldn't notice unless you wore bunny slippers!!!

Memo to self - pack bunny slippers

 

[chip&dale&fun]

Yes, the offer still stands. If you get something else, let me know so that we can either cancel the 2 extra seats or offer them to some other DIS'er that failed to get ressies. I'd sort of like a different time but still on formal night. Bruce doesn't want to feel out of place in the dining room if he's not wearing a tux ... sort of wish I could change his mind.

Ang

At the risk of incurring marital ire - rent a tux on board. It will be delivered to the room....

REALLY.....I got that on Taylor's first number. Hope my votes went through.
