Hey everyone...I edited my last post bc it was brought to my attention that I might be alienating those in CAT's 1-3.

It was my opinion and sorry if it offended anyone. Personally to me it is not worth it but if you want to spend the money go for it. Also, if someone is booking a CAT 1-3 why would they care if I don't agree with it???

Anyway, I hope no one took offese to my opinion and in the future I will keep my opinion to myself.

I actually appreciated your comment (was going to post earlier but had to run to Publix - I had a crazing for Capn Crunch French toast and had none of the ingredients). I had in my mind that I was going to get to the port and pay for an upgrade to Cat 3 (if avail) but you put things into perspective for me. You gave your honest opinion and it made me really think. Thanks for posting

those flip flops sound great. I did buy a pair of crocs today-black that are more like sandals--I hope they are as comfortable as my other crocs.

I bought my first (two) pair of Croc sandals on Friday. Macy's had a buy one get one free sale, plus 25% off for friends and family. I got Athens (grey/pink) and Capri (orange/white). I am not crazy about the colors but it ended up being $10 each. I think that's a good deal - right?
I will be living in them on the cruise - with the exception to dinner.

All DH and I wear are crocs. I can't stand to wear flip flops(I don't like the between my toes thing- LOL) so we got some of the Croc scutes- which look like the Nike or addidas sandals with the toes out. They are so comfortable-we have worn them all day at the parks in September(rain and hot on and off all day) and never any blisters. We love them!! I also have some of the mickey mary jane ones, I love wearing them too!!

I got the 10 day no expiration tickets last year- we're still using them. But I wish I could find some kind some kind of water park discount ticket too.

I love my crocs. I live in them year round! I choose comfort over fashion, at least for my feet!

I own 7 pairs of Crocs and 1 pair of Croc flip flops. I wear them to work and every time we go to WDW. I was worried about them being too slick for the decks on the cruise or for excursions. That's why I'm looking at swim shoes now instead.

So DD and I did our Wii Fit workout today, and now DS is on it! I absolutely LOVE IT! It tracks your weight, body fat, all of your progress! You can run, do step aerobics, yoga, all with your personal trainer helping you every step of the way! Its the best $89 I spent! I almost hired a personal trainer at the Y, but again, it was the money and the time (to drive there and be on a set schedule). Now I just go upstairs - we have a large game room that has become workout central. I am already feeling better (I've been riding on my stationary bike for about a week now too). I just want to be able to keep up with my kids on the excursions as well as in the parks. I give the Wii Fit 2 thumbs up!

Welcome to all the new folks, we are looking forward to making some new friends. So far the weather here is pretty nice, so I guess I will finish cleaning out the storage shed and re-storing all the winter stuff. I got the garage cleaned out so I could put the new car (well "new" used car) in. Last Wednesday was the last night of class for me, so I get a week off before I have to grade the final exams and final project reports, makes for several very busy nights. Has anyone staying at the Swan-Dolphin on the cruise deal found out which hotel you are in or do I need to call soon to get that set up. I think I would like the Swan (queen beds vs. full). If anyone has any recommendations either way I would appreciate hearing them.

I just ordered this banner for DD's room.

Vista Print was having a special on their small banners.... 3' x 1.6'

In the end it is costing me $15.12 with shipping and my uploaded image.

DH made me do 21 day production time for $6.00....I wanted to spend $13.00 and get it in 3 days. He told me the savings was 2 drinks at the bar. I guess we are just in a frugal mood today!!!

If you want the Swan then you should call DCL or your TA and request it. We requested the Swan and got it. I did the same reason....queens vs full beds. It will also be in your cruise documents when they come.

Thanks, I called and requested the Swan and it was put into the reservation. I also asked about possibility of an upgrade got quoted full retail so I guess no special upgrade rate for individuals, just have to hope for some Pixie Dust, if not at least we have a porthole.

to all the new additions to the group. This has been a great group.


Wednesday is my DS (Rob) Birthday. We are in between birthday events. We took Rob and a few of his friends to Chucke Cheese this morning and now we are about to get things together to do burgers for our family.

Well I better get off the boards for now, I need to go pick up his cake.

Thats a good question too. I was hoping the get 2 of the extra tickets from Brooklyn, but she said they may need them for 2 others that may go on the cruise with them. So I need to start looking again, to see if there are any great deals for tickets that are out there but maybe just now known about?? So I have been seaching the web.

okay-I may go get the Wi Fit on your rec--now I'll need to get my son to nag me to do it.

I do worry about the crocs being slippery-okay I admit I have slipped wearing them, but maybe I'd slip no matter what I was wearing!! I have a beat up pair that I wear around the house and have taken to Castaway. I'm not a fan of water shoes. Just don't like how heavy they feel when wet-

Hey everyone ~ hope your weekend was great!

I have Wii Fit, a bosu ball w/balance bar, & treadmill....hmmm, they don't move very much! Need to get going on it.

Steph ~ great banner! Awesome mom points! Thanks for adding us to the roll call.

Cat 1-3... honestly I love my cat 10 w/split bath. This year we are getting twins (didn't know we could split the queen on our first Disney cruise). I would hope people could share their opinion ~ that is what it is "an opinion".

No flip flops for me... they are the worst shoe you could wear (especially the cheap ones) "IMO". And I don't like toe thongs.

Jayde & I went to lunch w/some of my co-workers & then the mall ~ we each got new phones. On sale , plus a rebate, & Jayde changed her #. I guess she is getting a lot of strange calls.

BTW, for those whose kids know about the cruise ~ I found this thread for paper chain countdowns. Here is the link: http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2018621&page=3 Post #38 Really cute!! I am having Jayde do this. OK, seriously... I am doing it!
