5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 3

[mickeymo]

Serious, cruise - related, non fluff question.


Is 7 as good (better than 6)?


OK - back to Fluff....

7 is the best! Because, We're on deck 7!!!

Seriously, my opinion is just get me on the ship - I don't care where I am after that!!! I'll take the broom closet, if necessary!!!!

Before I catch up on the pagessss of post since I was rudely called away Froday night --


HAPPY FATHERS DAY to all the DF's

And I wonder how many NonSequitor Fans we have that have quoted yesterday's GPS cartoon?

Speaking of yesterday, the only thing worse than 7 foot alligators are 7 mm mosquitos. The garden was buzzing with them, and since it has been the only in months, out I went, armed with Cutters (ie DET)....which you cannot use around your eyes -- zap, zap zap.....By afternoon, one was swollen, almost shut, so I had to stop and have a bite to eat with DH in our local pub.

Stopped by the Scuba Store that Jim recommended. OH MY GOSH, We would have died for this stuff when we were diving in past years. OH MY GOSH. Left the store with no purchases, but lots of questions. Must start reading, must decide do we want to dive or just snorkle, OH MY GOSH, $49.00 for a shortie wetsuite???? We never owned wetsuits, way to $$$$$, course we also owned no money then,,,,hum

Now to post reading...Later

You can always book a great dive trip there. I called Bill Beards who is a travel agency that specializes in CR trips. I got Betty in Fort Lauderdale. She and her husband run a six pack boat in FLL. I may have to try it out.

She gave me some great ideas.

Great white water rafting too.

Thanks for the tip....We'll need to put this on our list. Still unsure about resuming diving - see prior posts.....do I need another hobby?

Anyway, back to post catching up!

 

[chip&dale&fun]

Is there spell check for the boards? I need to be shown where it is if there is, because I sure could use it.


PS Have fun with Mark and Mary tomorrow!

ME TWO (or wait, that's grammer check).

Kevin, I just shot Red an email and should have something within the next day or so. I have also invited him to ride down with Matt and I. I could use a helper with the driving. Hope you don't mind. To bad if you do!

When are you guys going? Pssing by our way?

 

[chip&dale&fun]

OK - I asked for it, before I get 1000 replys, that is PASSING - got it folks PASSING.

No pot sitting award please, but I earned it.

Finally some good news here!

Just received Lauren's schedule for this year. Her finals aren't until Monday June 5 through the 7th.

For those of you joining us late - the issue was that we were going to take Lauren out of school - no matter what. This makes it a moot point - while she will miss 4 days of school - she won't have to miss finals - and thus her grade shouldn't be adversely affected......

Hope that everyone is having a good weekend.....

Hope that Mark and Mary have a great time in FL!!!!

This one deserves a :thewave:

 

[kikipug]

I'll take the broom closet, if necessary!!!!

Happy Father's Day to all the dad's out there!

Thanks Karen, I thought I was going for a record of continuous posts....

If Cat 9 is a broom closet - we must have the service elevator in Cat 11...

 

[chip&dale&fun]

Since it is Sunday and several og you have mentioned chruch or mass - I wondered what the services on board the Magic are like? Anyone attended?

 

[Dancind]

Kevin forgot that we also waited almost two hours for luggage delivery the day we checked in at BWV. Kind of put a kabosh on our plans to go back to MGM for Fantasmic that night, since we had to be in the room. And no, they wouldn't let us go fetch.

Mary, please tell us more about the dessert party! How did you book it and how much did it cost?

Stacey, still waiting for a report on the West coast cruise!

Father's Day - kind of hard to spoil a guy who isn't around. I guess that's his present.

Happy Father's Day to the DIS Dads!


Especially the ones spending the day with their kids still at homw.

As long as I'm here - I'll post my milestone 500 profound thought:

"I have seen war. I have seen war on land and sea. I have seen blood
running from the wounded... I have seen the dead in the mud. I have seen cities destroyed...I have seen children starving. I have seen the agony of
mothers and wives. I hate war."

This was in the FDR memorial and it stuck with me and the kids...

 

[mickeymo]

And for 501 - a bit lighter "fluff" - I saw this quote at the American History Museum.

The length of a minute depends on which side of the bathroom door you are on...

All caught up - carry on!!

...Later

Kevin and I stopped by the store on our FLL trip. We spent only $10 and that to get the reel for our dive flag. It was a minor miracle that our credit cards were not smoking. DWs do not know how close we came.....but than again, we had not room for any more dive gear!

 

[scuba diver]

When are you guys going? Pssing by our way?

Could be. We will know more details later and I'm sure they will be posted since Kevin and I understand everyone wants to know about our dive trips!
