Could you "enlarge" the photo ??

I am thinking of one of the Mickey's ears ( if you look at it from the back)
................

Hope that your day with the kids will be WONDERFUL !!!!!!!!!!!
What kind of rides do they have at Mall of America ?

Ciao , laura

Hey Laura - I thought for sure you would get the mystery photo! I did just enlarge it a bit. DH said no one would get it.

Here are the clues:

It is found on the Magic.
You will find it all over the ship.

Good Luck!

Evening all hopfully you are all ok


The weekend starts here

 

[DGH]

My guess is that the mistery picture is a part of that "fish" outside each stateroom door - where you can leave messages , cards etc.
Isn't it ?

Trivia

The ship has an average speed of 21.5 knots (25 mph /40 kph)
MAX speed is 24 knots .

I have always thought that the ship goes faster ...

OK to test you, what location is this found, and you have to be exact..

 

[DGH]

OK to test you, what location is this found, and you have to be exact..

I am not 100% sure, but I think it's the carpet of the private dining room at Palo. See behind me, with a 90° rotation

DGH - I am pretty sure you are correct. The carpet in Palo (the main area) has the same geometric pattern but no swirls (that I could see in any of the photos I found). I am guessing that it is carpet that is specific to the private dining room at Palo.

I was WRONG! I HATE MAKING MISTAKES !

It's the area to enter PALO just in front of the lifts

 

[jenanderson]

I also hate to be wrong! I only searched for dining room photos - didn't even think to look outside of Palo!

Good for you for finding the photo!

Hi everyone. Hope all is well. Just had a really bad week - layoffs at my work - I did survive. We lost 15% of our department
I am so glad that is done. I had a migrane for 3 days straight.

Softball and Dance consume our lives right now. DH is working 6-7 days a week and at night right now - UGGHHH!! This cruise cannot come fast enough.

I love all the posting and want to say to all the new cruisers who joined recently.

Jen - the picture of your daughter in toes shoes was great! I know how hard the kids have to work to get to this point.

Enjoy the weekend.

HOW do you plan TO GET TO PORT CANAVERAL ??

DGH and I like to arrive to port very early, so the Disney transportation isn't not suitable for us. We want to be there earlier than midday !!

Years ago we used to rent a AVIS car, going to the WDW Hilton for the pickup and returning it back at a location near the port,where we had to take a shuttle to go to the port.
I always insisted to have all the insurances added : SO the one day rental, including taxes, fuel and insurances was more than 100 USD to go to the port.

Then we started to use a town car, which was costing just a few bucks more (240 for a round trip); and this was lot more confortable.
We used FL Tours; until a couple of years ago,our sponsorship for the DIS boards was giving us 20% discount with them, so the round trip was even cheaper than the rented car.

We haven't decided yet , but I'm pretty sure that also this August DGH and I will get to port on a

comfortable town car : you just have to relax and chat about cruise dreams until your driver gives your luggage to porters and wishes you BON VOYAGE !!!! [NO NEED to lift /carry heavy baggage for poor DGH !!! ]
We always got WONDERFUL , kind and CARING drivers - and they would each time come back to pick us up upon return !!

CIAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO , laura

 

[allardk46]

We are also getting a car service. Our flight lands at 9:40am and we also want to get to the port. Last year when we visited the world we also did this. The kids loved the person standing there with our name. I like the private vehicle and do not feel like cattle.[/B]

Yes thats why I said 'exact; location, There is a slight difference between outside Palo and inside,

This was outside in the elevator area.
