Kewl...great minds think alike

 

[Celestine]

Thankyou for the info. on the tastings, just need to add them to my plan & check for conflicting activities! Sounds simple, but as DH has now transferred to a MAC I am very lost & everything takes exponentially longer! Still desperately holding on to my desktop for simple functions like money & keeping up with the DIS. Finally packed & just finishing off domestic things like cancelling milk & advising Credit card companies. Dental on Tuesday - family outing!

ITA.....

After yesterday's fly across the handlebars, June has several scrapes and bruises to show for her spill. But she was a trooper and today we went for a long bike ride. Near the end of the ride, she tried to avoid a lady and her dog and almost ended up in a stream. Less than a minute later, she almost got hit by a Suburban

After giving the driver a piece of her mind, she was pretty shaken up and in tears riding home. She decided that she wasn't going to chance it and will stay off the bike until after the TOAL!!

We hope June is ok. I am really sorry and if there is anything you need let me know. Still trying to catch up on the new thread wow, leave for second and it's just going fast and crazy.

Take care and see you soon,

I can't believe that we only have a week to go!

Moving out early tomorrow..DD has to serve at Mass at 8 and then we are off to meet Chrissie and Brendan for a trip to Hollywood. I will take pictures! (hopfully I remember the camera..it's already in the packing pile)

We have a birthday party tomorrow nite and then home. DD is grouchy..had school for 6 days in a row (have to start working on next weeks with all the craziness going on) She is still up but I am telling her that she has to get some sleep!

Have a safe trip DES...See you soon - your friend, Dawn

If there is anyone who doesn't have trip insurance, please get it.

My step mother and her daughter called yesterday morning to tell us my father died. I asked when they were planning to have the funeral and they said Friday. I got a call later saying the family has decided to have the funeral on SUNDAY instead.

So I had to cancel. I'll get a refund. DCL refunded half yesterday and I have to turn in calm forms to the insurance company for the balance.

Since I didn't book airfare with DCL, I may be out of that expense.

Is there anyone here who hasn't purchased DL park passes yet? I have two of the three day Southern California passes. If someone needs them, they are yours (no charge). They expire on the 30. If I don't give them way, they will be wasted.

If anyone is interested, PM me and I'll overnight them before we head to South Carolina on Tuesday.

If no one here needs them, I'll try to give them away on DL board when I return.

Sorry to be a downer in the mist of all the excitement.


Enjoy your TOAL and please take/post plenty of pictures.

Love ya Tanya

So sorry for your loss s and prayers to you and your family.

Don't worry....you're not alone. All my clothes are folded....and shoved in an Old Navy shopping bag. I'm ready to go???

We are right there with ya. Just started packing yesterday. Yikers...

Tell me about this ''packing'' I am supposed to be doing, i have missed that bit out and off in a day or so?

Packing for me is going to be crazy - got some new luggage and hope for the best.

Things have been so crazy around here getting ready to leave early Tuesday morning, so I have not had much of a chance to be online. Finishing up last minute errands, and rounding things up, etc.

I have been so sleep deprived, what a great way to start off a vacation, eh?
We will be doing all the packing and most of the laundry (so we can pack) done tomorrow.

Talk to everyone soon!

Talk with you soon Michelle - I am also doing last minute errands as of yesterday - finally with all stress DD6 finally found a pair of shoes she liked for her formal dress and it was a bit stressful. LOL and we picked up our dresses at the tailors yesterday and they are just great. DD6 actually enjoyed being in her dress. Now I just got to convince her to do something with her hair and little nervous about that when the comes. She has a mind of her own But she is so cute at times too.

At this time thats about 100% more effort than me.

Andrew have a safe trip and I totally understand where you are coming from.

Thats the one bit of a trip, I hate the packing, and then the not finding it when you arrive.

So sorry to hear about your loss , our condolences ..

 

[MJGirl]

Bye everyone .. .Off to the airport. Next time I chat, I will be in Sunny California!!!

 

[mjy]

That looks very impressive, did you invent that this afternoon??

I would actually like if not love to be 'transported' by teleport to LA, rather than an 11 hour flight, any help there, ''beam me up, Crashy''.-Engage

I wouldn't ask that if I were you, Andrew.

After all, you never know where Crash would end up materializing you! That would be a great way for him to have your BA seat assignment!

Have a safe trip....

 

[AndyR]

ON the other hand - I do have a brand new Olympus 850 SW underwater capeable digi-cam... however I assume it comes with an underwater shooting setting that color correcs for the red shift in the images.

Ah, never assume (he said with hindsight).....my pic was shot with such a beastie last year. It does 'try' to fiddle with the color balance, and the flash helps, but.....well......

With all the DIS'ers buying the Olympus U/W cameras, maybe we need a practice session once on board lol.

In front of me is four large empty suitcase's, I was hoping if I look at them long enough, and think of the cruise, they will fill themselves of the clothes I wish to take, but the Suitcase Fairy seems to be on strike.

Same here....

Maybe we need a little pixie dust!

LaTanya, I am so, so sorry to hear about your loss, and that you and Tyreak will not be on this cruise . . . we will have to get together in September, OK? Love to you.

Hi everyone, I'm checking in from Huntington Beach, CA -- the flight was super smooth yesterday and we actually got in about half an hour early. All the luggage arrived, and we took a taxi to the Hyatt here to relax at the beach until we switch to DL on Tuesday. Hope all of you are well and see you this time next week!

Julie,
Glad to hear you are safe in CA. Such sad news about LaTanyas dad, she was looking so forward to her first cruise. She will be missed!!!!

Debi

 

[DisneyMom13]

That is on my list to do as well on Castaway between my stingray adventure and my massage.

I am so jealous, I want a massage on CC, but can't get one. Maybe I will luck out when we get onboard. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

When you take an underwater photograph, they usually come out all blue and washed out as the red light component gets absorbed once you get down more that 5 feet.

There's a 14 step process in Photoshop which fixes the colors back to what they should be.

But doing this by hand for every phograph is time consuming. So PS can remember the sequence of commands used to fix the photos, then replay them for each pic you want done. You can then then have PS run this remembered sequence on a whole folder of pics, saving a whole bunch of time for DIS

Andy

I know about the process... I think you posted the link on the Pirate Zone for the instructions...

But how does PS remember it? I have a whole bunch from DH's trip to Honduras that I need to edit still (the trip was in Feb!) and then I'll have a bunch from our cruise too...

The only problem I have with automating is that there was a few times where it just didn't look right... They came out too red or something.
