Morning Girls

I hope you had a lovely Halloween evening

Not much planned for today

Have a great day everyone

 

[disallday!]

Hi Mandy!

We stayed home a watched a scary movie and ate pizza! It kept the kids out of trouble

Hope everyone is doing well in your household!

 

[Cruisin]

Morning ladies.

It was fairly quiet here last night. Not very many trick or treaters as usual for us.

Happy first day of November

Wow, it's getting awfully close to Christmas isn't it Mandy

 

[disallday!]

Hey Robin!!

Happy 1st day of November to you too!!

Christmas is sneaking up on us quickly, isn't it And your cruise is coming up fast too! I'm so excited that you are having brunch at Palo's. I hope to get their chocolate souffle the next time we go

 

[mandymouse]

Hey Girls

Kelly - We're all doing great thanks, I hope you're gang are OK too

Robin - Happy 1st November too, yes Christmas is coming very quick

Betsy - Have a lovely lunch day

Umm, all this talk of Palo's, it's making me feel very hungry, as that food is delish

 

[Cruisin]

Kelly, your trip is coming up soon too isn't it?

I'm sure that you are looking forward to that.

Hey did I tell you guys that on Saturday I am going to Detroit to see the So You Think You Can Dance road show tour??

Looking forward to it, should be something different.

Also we are going a bit early and doing a little bit of shopping while we are there.

More sad new yesterday. Kind of trivial sad but sad to us anyways. One of our fish in our tank died. He was a very large chinese algae eater. We called him algae He was at least 7 years old (maybe older we can't remember for exactly sure when we got him). He was definitely a fish with a personality. We enjoyed having him and I always said I only kept the fish tank because of Algae.

Now that he has gone what the heck am I supposed to do with a couple hundred guppies. Anybody need some guppies

 

[disallday!]

Poor Robin... you guys are having a tough week. How big was Algae? Our cruise is coming up fast. We found out that we may have to fly out of Baltimore which is a 3 1/2 hr drive from here. We were hoping to catch a flight out of Norfolk International which is only 1 hr or so. Oh well ... I'm willing to sacrafice!

This is one excursion we are thinking about doing

I wish the Wonder would alternate their ports of call. Even if they added a little bit more $ to price. It would be neat to see different places, just can't afford the 7 nights or more DCL cruises with the kids

 

[Cruisin]

Kelly Agae was at least 7 - 8 inches long if not longer. He never sat still long enough out in the open for me to figure out and I didn't really want to measure him when he was dead

He was quite a character though. I had put a little teeny tiny clay flower pot in the aquarium for decoration. He used to put his head inside the flower pot and push it around the outside walls of the tank He'd go until he ran head long into the wall and then turn around and go until he hit the next wall

Hilarious. I wonder if he had a headache when he was done.

He did it often enough and hard enough that he eventually broke the flower pot in two.

Who says that fish dont' have personalities.

 

[Cruisin]

That excursion looks really cool Kelly.

I'm sure you'd have a lot of fun doing that.

Wow Kelly, that sounds like a great excursion, I wish I was somewhere nice and hot right now

Oh Robin, I'm so sorry but you do make me laugh, Algae sounds like he had a great personality and I'm so sorry that you've had such a tough week

Well the one good thing about tough weeks is that there is nowhere else to go but upwards

So here's to a happier future

Morning Girls

I've got some exciting news to share with you. A few months ago Paul found some really cheap flights to Orlando for Christmas, and he booked them even though things were looking a little uncertain at work. Well yesterday, he went for it and booked our trip for Christmas

So, not only are we going to WDW, we are taking a 3 night cruise too Our plans are 17th/20th All Star Sports, 20th/23rd Disney Wonder then back to the All Star Sports 23rd/27th December

I am so excited, Paul only booked the cruise last night, and we were even lucky enough to get Palo on our last night

I can't wait, it's only 6 weeks on Monday till we go

Mandy, I'm so happy for you!!! Maybe you can print out a copy of our "Dancing Queens" pic so we can all be together on the Wonder again Do the girls know yet?

Robin, I forgot to say how lucky I think you are to be going to the SYTYCD tour in Detroit! I was in love with Neil during the show, he performed alot of really cool routines... I liked the routine with him and Danny towards the end of the season. If you get any pics... let me see them

Betsy, hope you had a great Halloween with the grandkids! Did you get any pics of Albert?

I'm so happy for you and your family Mandy.

You will have a really fantastic Christmas now.

Thanks for the link to that picture of the Magic and the Wonder.

How neat is that.

I never even knew that webcam was there

 

[disallday!]

Betsy, Albert and the grandkids look so cute He sounds like my black lab... very easy to coax him into anything as long as he hears "Gunner wanna treat?"

I missed the link to the Wonder and Magic...Where did it go?

 

[Cruisin]

Here it is Kelly

[mandymouse]

Betsy - your photos are brilliant, the kids look great, but I'm afraid that Albert has definitely stolen the show - he looks fab

Robin - I'm pleased that you liked the link, it's so rare to see the Magic and the Wonder next to each other - though I would've been upset to have missed Castaway Cay today and ended up in Nassau

Kelly - Yes the girls do know now. That's a good idea about taking a picture of the Disney Wonder Dancing Queens - I know I'll wish you all were there

Have a great weekend girls

Mandy

 

[disallday!]

Hey all!

Hope you guys are having a wonderful weekend!

We are very lucky to have missed a terrible storm that could have caused alot of problems. I feel sorry for those in the Caribbean who was affected by the storm

I'm getting very anxious about DCL posting 2009 rates, especially with the Martindale's posting a new cruise date and the Kroeze's cruise just around the corner
