8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC #5

[Andrew DEREK UK]

Wow looking good Andrew

Thanks,
John

With you, one never knows, n'est-ce pas?

Well we will have to see 'if its true' on the cruise.

Hey my room is port-side that means in Acapulco the people at the fort will be able to look straight into my room! Best have a towel out of the shower at 7am! and dress for the verandah!

I did read a post once where a couple of ships were lined up together and a DCL cruiser in topsiders could look straight into another cruise ships staterooms and a couple came out of the shower naked and didn't know they were the new entertainment show on the Magic. Not Disney approved.

 

[bellelinus]

So few of them, might take time, when they upgrade me to Cat 3, you can have mine!


Thats called reality.

Look me on the right now, against my picture in December on the left.

See my belt its about six holes in now!

Wow! You really have lost! Good job -- just be careful with the maintenance -- that's where lots of people get tripped up. Keep the exercise up, which is good for you regardless . . .

I may not recognize you -- which you might prefer!

 

[bellelinus]

No problem, if you could have heard her, she was already dialing DCL. I tell you I was in tears just listening to her.

John

I think I would have died laughing . . . if Cheryl gets mad, tell her that the science section of the NY Times this morning said that pranks are less often hostile acts than benevolent initiations into a group . . . (it may not be true in this case, but it sounds better than admitting to being hostile)

Andrew, I think your children will thank you for the towel coming out of the shower every day, not just in Acapulco . . .

There's a way to do shirts on the cheap with iron-ons.... (They wouldn't be screened on the same as the one's we're ordering but workable....) i did iron on's for my thing1/thing2 shirts for halloween and i think Todd has done some before.

I can get white and/or black shirts usually for $2 or 2.50 each . Now the shirt transfers are a little more $$ though. (probably under $25 for as many as your shirts will need.)

Kristina.....where do you get your transfer "paper"?

I have made these before as well, but they didn't turn out all that great. I don't think I used a good transfer medium. Any tips?

If you look at the size of my 'Polynesian' zip sweater, you will see its rather large for me now, the pants, are very big on me now, I have to put the belt right through about six holes to keep them in place.

Still have more to go, but have Disneyland Paris to come and i have booked a lot of meals there.

It's true -- good excuse to get new clothes for the summer. Eating on a vacation won't undo all this work . . . you just have to keep vigilant at home.

When do you go to DLP -- May?

I used a dark colors transfer paper available at Walmart....

I think the one i bought had 6 (8x11 sized) in a pack for around $6. or maybe it was 3 in a pack...

I think they offered larger packs though. (i just didn't need any at the time.)

I am going to DLP, Hotel New York at the end of May, the next Kids school break, going by Eurostar from the New St Pancras station, on the direct DLP service.

We will have about five days in the parks, and looking forward to riding the new rides such as Crush's coaster, and the new shows live Stich Live, not anywhere else in Disney.

Will look for this, thank you!

All I can say is it is a good thing you live far away... I was still sound asleep at 8:30 am when John said to read the special pirate zone....I was not fully awake. He said there had been changes I would like and dislike. I read the list of performers and got really excited!!! I started reading further down and I saw the new tipping. Before I knew it I opened another window to open the tip calculator to compare. John was taling to me and I am pitching a fit!!! The capatain even gets tipped!!! Before I went into cardiac arrest......John told me to go to the Dis and read on the last page. Not only you but Andrew too!!

I would be afraid .............. be very afraid!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was funny!!!!!!!!!!!!​

​

Love the shirt!!!!!

When we went last summer between the Med cruise we were on with you and your family, and the Med repo, we did Crush's coaster . . . the first day we did it we went first thing and still waited about 90 minutes . . . I told the girls to forget doing it again on that trip while we were on line. Then we went on it and it was so much fun that we did wait to go another morning! Get into Studios early (it opens later than the MK, as you know, so we always went and did some things at the MK first) and you will have to queue up even before park opening. Of course, it may not be as bad since the ride is not so new, and May may be better than August when we went. However, it was seriously so much fun that it was worth waiting.

None of those links are working for me, Tom -- another April Fool's????

 

[arlenesp]

My DS would LOVE that. A wrapper like that would make him want it even more. Crazy kid. He loves the Harry Potter Jelly Beans.....I can't get myself to try them....although Todd's wife tried the dirt one and declared that it does taste like dirt.

My DD and her friend sat and ate each flavor. I forgot who was the unlucky recipient of the vomit one.

No problem, if you could have heard her, she was already dialing DCL. I tell you I was in tears just listening to her.

John

Oh I'm going to get an earful tonight!!!!!!!

 

[arlenesp]

Well time to get back to work

 

[micmse2003]

Roger I knew you would know! LOL

Thanks!

Hey ...Brendan wanted me to ask...know any good hot dog places between DL and LA? He LOVES hot dogs and has been begging me to ask?
Any suggestions?

Chrissie

Pinks and you could get autographs of stars going there to eat!!

Breaking News

Multiple explosions impact key transportation assets.

US raises Threat Level to RED

New York - (AP) - Simultaneous explosions in the Suez, Erie and Panama
Canals appear to be a coordinated terrorist attack. At approximately
12:22 a.m. EDT the first explosion occured on board an oil tanker in the
Erie Canal. Click here for live video. The tanker has broken in half,
leaking over 300 million gallons of oil into the canal which is now
burning and has the canal closed to all traffic. Shortly after 12:30
a.m. EDT a second explosion occured in the Suez Canal. It is not clear
at this time how the explosion occurred, but several ships, including a
Cunard Cruise ship are on fire. Amazingly, no injuries or deaths are
reported. At 12:48 a.m. EDT a container ship in the Gatun Locks of
Panama Canal exploded multiple times, causing severe damage to the locks
and is slowly causing the water upstream to drain to the ocean.
Preliminary damage reports indicate that the Panama Canal will be closed
indefinately crippling commerce. A terrorist fringe organization calling
themselves the All Powerful Reigning Infidel Liberation Fellows Over Odd
Liberating Someday has claimed responsibility.

Tom do you ever get any work done Now I know why you were not on the threads much. You were doing creative pranking!!

In his speedo. Right Earl And I have heard that speedos are mandatory at all Ecuadorian beaches.

Here is Tom in his Dis Green Speedo!!!

Got my kit yesterday. I was so excited to see the part about booking onboard activities early for us east coasters.

I booked my Palo, spa, & brunch. Went with the DCL excursion in Cartagena. I also booked discover the canals where you can get off the boat in Panama. I booked the "Kids Drive the Boat" for both DS's. I'm debating the "Room Steward Does Your Wash". Does anyone have any experience with this? Do they use enough fabric softener?

And how sweet was that 50% off coupon for future cruises?

I only hope that my April 1 writing is as good as Andrew's.....

I did have some editorial brainstorming help.....

LOL My cats used to do that too! For such little things they sure could make a lot of racket.

Well, Andrew and Tom enjoyed your April Fool's gags.

And by the way anyone have any free time? I have a nice guest room Have a great day and I will check in when I can with you all

Thanks for the updates Paula. Sorry about the trashes house. We all miss you!!

Yes I am looking forward to it, we get early entry in DL park at 8am each day WDS opens at 10am will go for that, may use a hotel fasspass on that one to get in.

Tom, what is wrong with your phalanges? Is that from typing too much BS?
