8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC #14

[captaincrash]

Don't know if anyone answers but you don't
The suggest dress code is dress shirt or jacket

I've only packed one black tux... however, I've not given up on finding my white tux .... as that is MY favorite dinner jacket.

Had a great time tonight at the DT meet The kids all had a great time together too and seemed to have know each other forever. Took pictures but now realized that I packed all of my cables in the suitcases in the car and refuse to unpack them Time for bed and see everyone tomorrow.

 

[captaincrash]

Oh no, I hope you were able to find the dress!
LOL@ boarding numbger 20 zillion. I hope we don't get boarding # 20 zillion and have to sit around waiting to go in after riding up there with the other pirates on the pirates bus! That would stink!



all set to get picked up tomorrow at that time- assuming pick up is in front of front desk at HOJO?

Hi everyone!
Well we didn't last the entire day as planned. DH got in kinda late last night (not surprisingly his flight was delayed- as usual at DFW!) but we did get up early and to DL for half the day then had lunch at RFC and totally stuffed ourselves with delicious foods (all of us had eaten nothing but snacky type foods or PB&J or microwave stuff all week long. We were hungry for some real food! LOL) so we walked to DCA feeling like stuffed sausages. We rode a few rides, decided that was enough for now and head back to HOJO. Kids and DH went swimming and I'm just about to tell them to get out and get dressed again. We're heading back over to DL soon- to meet everyone for fantasmic and then hopefully we'll make it awhile at DL after that to ride some more rides and atleast TRY to get our money's worth on DH's ticket just for today. LOL

then...... I'm sure everyone will crash while I stay up late repacking stuff and getting everything set to go early in the morning then go on the pirate bus! i'm really looking forward to the cruise after such busy (lots of walking LOL) days here at DL/DCA... ready for some rest and relaxation! and fun with my DIS'er friends!
We did see a few people today. they came up to us each time- so I guess we were more noticable in our mickey mouse club shirts with our names on the back? We're also wearing our lime green wristbands AND pirates wristbands today. we're morphing from DIS'ers to pirates. LOL tomorrow we'll start wearing only pirates wristbands probably. Saw Rockolamama and a few others that came up to us AND we had lots of comments about our shirts from castmembers and other people at the parks too. Everyone commenting how great the shirts were and some asking where we got them- who were disappointed when they found out it was from online and not somewhere in DL. LOL

Gotta run... gotta get everyone back dressed to head over to DL!

Looks like I'll be up a bit finishing off my packing .... while a cast about in search of my WHITE DInner jacket!

[captaincrash]

Anyone have any recommendations for a small video camera? I was in Best Buy yesterday and a little overwhelmed with the choices. I didn't know if the mini dvd ones were better, the ones with the built in hard drive or the ones with the sd cards. I'm considering this purchase instead of a new camera.
Thanks!

I'll look ya up on the ship to discuss it ... unless ya already bought something!

I'll make a note on my deck plan map

 

[captaincrash]

Kewl...great minds think alike

 

[captaincrash]

Gosh I finally caught up with the thread yah...So much to do today.

Please everyone take care and everyone have a safe trip...See you soon...

Your friend,

I KNOW I'll not catch up.... maybe some day i'll go back and read all 140,000+ postomgs, eh?

 

[captaincrash]

[captaincrash]

Two can play at that game! Im only 169 posts away!

But Im too tired, I've been up since 7, got 4 hours of sleep last night, off work in 10 mins banana: ), and I need to go home at START packing!

 

[bellelinus]

Out of curiosity, are you concierge? Because I just checked in and asked if I receive my card and I was told that I would receive it tomorrow when I showed up at the conference center for the transfer.

Just wondering why you have yours already and figured you might be concierge . . .

No, Mike, I'm not -- and they knew when I checked in that I was just a regular person, without DCL transfers, staying at the DLH . . . so I am really baffled as to why they gave you such a hard time. We got our cards and lanyards and everything and the entire thing took 5 minutes. Sorry you had such a hard time, but I will see you tomorrow on the ship!

 

[bellelinus]

Great Fantasmic Dismeet tonight!

See everyone tomorrow!​

 

[4fosterkids]

OK Michelle,

THIS will be my last posting.... I can't find my WHITE TUX? How strange can that be? Plus I don't know if I'l have room for my CJS costume!? DRAT! I wonder if Alicia packed her piratre costumes? I'm packing so much stuff - it's kind of tough this trip.

I have a surprise for ya - here's a peek at my door sign. It's rather simple I think - however it make up for it's simplicity with graphic intensity. Obvious since it is a collage of photographs, after all.

Gosh... I cannot BELIEVE how heavy we're traveling. ALL the cardboard boxes - 4 of them - are FE gifts, gifts (magnet dry erase memo boards) for every DIS cabin - gifts for the ice cream race winners and for my partners in crime running it - and of course - Ihave that extra DVD camcorder which a DIS neighbor expressed interest in uying off me since I stepped up to a HD SD camcorder. Oh yeah... I think I might leave my DSLR behind! I'vejsut got too much stuff! I'll be bringing 3 pocket sized digicams in substitution! That new Olympus 850 SW underwater job (I've taken less than 3 pictures with it)... my old pocket Fuji which I bought for a net $30 (after rebate and adjustment for the sec 529 investment gift credits of $100 from AMAZON)... and our 3rd digicam is my little daughters' Mickey Mouse Digicam - the same which shall be awarded to the winer of the childrens' Mickey Bar Ice Cream Race! Here's a picture of her camera - the race award!

So what am I doing here and NOT packing? Well... my little one woke up and wanted Daddy to lie next to her bed - so I'm surfing a few minutes while she slips back into slumber.

Cheers!

OK....I'm done for the night! I need a few hours of sleep...or attempted sleep anyway! Crash...I totally understand your "packing heavy" comment! I really don't know how those who flew here, did it! We have 13 bags, for the 5 of us....plus 1 more I'm sure in the morning, when I figure out what I missed!

I didn't get to a few things...but thats ok. All is well with the world!

Happy dreams to all! Let the big day arrive with friends near & far!!

Oops...

oh I LOVE that! I'm a big collage lover...very nicely done!

 

[Caropooh]

That would be St. Jude, patron of impossible causes, whom you would need to contact!

Good luck getting your res.

I'm hoping to get one as well, but our bus doesn't even leave until 12:20 p.m.

I wonder if I have any pull with St Jude? DD14 was born in St Jude Medical Center(not the one in Memphis!), I would think that should account for something!

Oh no, I hope you were able to find the dress!
LOL@ boarding numbger 20 zillion. I hope we don't get boarding # 20 zillion and have to sit around waiting to go in after riding up there with the other pirates on the pirates bus! That would stink!

We did see a few people today. they came up to us each time- so I guess we were more noticable in our mickey mouse club shirts with our names on the back? We're also wearing our lime green wristbands AND pirates wristbands today. we're morphing from DIS'ers to pirates. LOL tomorrow we'll start wearing only pirates wristbands probably. Saw Rockolamama and a few others that came up to us AND we had lots of comments about our shirts from castmembers and other people at the parks too. Everyone commenting how great the shirts were and some asking where we got them- who were disappointed when they found out it was from online and not somewhere in DL. LOL

Gotta run... gotta get everyone back dressed to head over to DL!

Nope, never found the dress. I'm sure it will show p as soon as we get back!
Well, we'll be in group 20 zillion together than! We'll chat together!

speaking of hands/feet- mine look awful! they are really taking a beating the past few days with all this walking... blisters and all sorts of bruises and scratches. LOL
also I really should have done my french manicure/pedicure before leaving... I figured I'd do it before the cruise but not before going to DL. Well bad idea... all nails have been breaking, cracking, etc. and now they are a mess. Not long(ish) like they were before! so ugh, I'll be the one with ugly feet and hands. Ohwell, should match the rest of me quite well.

My nails have nothing on them, just bring old nails.
