8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC #6

[Bets19]

I'll tell you my embarassing story....24dd (21 at the time) convinced me that I needed a size *L* for a type of underwear I wanted at VS. I tried to tell her that even though she thought I was big that a woman that wears a size 6 can not wear a *L*. She convinced me that with that style, fabric, ya da ya da.

A few days later I am walking out of CVS and I feel my undies *fall* fast. I nearly always wear skirts........ I called her... I think she snorted she was laughing so hard.....

OMG!!!!!!

Finally finished ketchup! Both arms are very sore as went for my vaccines today: typhoid, tetanus, polio, something else I hadn't heard of that was in the combi. It seems my Hep B I had 10 years ago is good for 25 years & came to the conclusion that Hep A was overkill, so no "I'm good to go"!

Congrats to all those PIF.

Still no cabin# for us.

[Bets19]

I am so excited!

Our TOAL is PAID IN FULL!!!!!!!!

Now the big question . . .what cabin do we get? Has anyone else paid and gotten their GTY changed?? My TA (Dreams Unlimited) said she would try to get me a room when she did the final payment, but I guess there still weren't any!

Would love to hear if anyone else has seen a change

Can't believe we're only a 90+days out!!

Yeah!!

See ya'll soon!

Congrats on PIF

Would love to join, but still haven't heard back from Los Veranos Canapy tours. How long did it take for everyone to hear back? I submitted our request on Monday.

There is a Woot Off going on today for those that may be interested.

??? -- What's a woot off?

CABO TIME CHANGE!
I just visited the DCL website, something that I rarely do. I have not been the best at keeping up with this thread, so I am not sure if the Cabo time change was posted here months ago or if this is new info.
I booked the Wild Canyon Ekopark "Zip" tour many months ago. The tour pickup is at 10am at the Pier - they say that the tour starts at 10:30am. I was nervous about this time when I thought that we were docking at 9am. I am extremely nervous now that I see we are docking at 9:30 am. I am not sure if I should try to cancel (if they will even allow me to cancel). Any opinions????

Considering we are tendering its very tight, DCL will have small boats take us form the magic to the shore, they put on the Disney shore trips first and you have to go to the Buena vista theater to pick up a tender ticket this could take 30 mins or so. You will need to go early to the BVT, to get one of the first tenders, it will be tight.

I think I have seen that time there fo a long time, as I booked my private tour for 9.30am, thats orgainsed by DCL.

I was starting to give up hope that I would hear back from DCL about this, but I did get an email today!!

Reply from DCL:

Good Morning Deanna,

We have held the Buena Vista Theater on deck 5 for the Mass services you requested.

Aug 24 at 9:00
Aug 31 at 8:00

How long do you need the venue for each day?
Also what set up will be needed in the room for the priest? Table, podium, chairs? Would you want these on the stage or at floor level in front of the theater seats? He will need to bring his own Mass supplies.

Please be advise there is a charge for the microphone of $125 and a tech fee of $50 which would need to be prepaid. Would he prefer a lapel mic or a hand held? There is no charge for the room.

May I have the name of the Priest and the room he is in if know. If you don't know the room number I can look it up by his name.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you.
Dorothy

I will PM Father Mike to get the info they need from him, and I am also going to tell them we will not require a microphone afterall. I had not realized there would be such a large fee for that.

 

[buckifan]

Glass blowing! What? Was Underwater Basket Weaving already closed out?

OK, I'll admit - I took 3 sailing classes in college.

Well, I do have a BFA, so it is in my field. I loved my neon class. DH and I took it together, and I am pretty sure Jesus was our instructor.

The SHT Fund?

I'm really behind, but that is TOO funny!

Hey, Terri,

Where in Ohio are you?????

I am about half way between Dayton and Cincinnati (a little closer to Dayton). I work in downtown Dayton, but am looking to transfer to our Cincinnati office.

You are in NE Ohio, right?

Joel110 and I are both Central Ohio.

It took me a few days. I would contact them again if you have not received a response by tomorrow.

175 yikes...

Fr Mike can project his voice after 25 years...RIGHT?

I'd be willing to do a reading on one of the days if noone else volunteers...
(the sea day Sunday of course)

I'm good without a mic.... (just ask DH)

Thanks to Deanna for getting this done for us!

I agreed with her that we tell Disney to forget the microphone and tech (125?!)

After all, God gave us good lungs, let's use 'em!

Looking forward to meeting you on board the EB.

 

[mjy]

I -MUST- find a time warp because I do not think I'm going to be able to contain myself until the August start time.

Especially reading about some people ready to go in a day or so.

Aaauugghhhh . . . will August ever come?!

 

[sk8ingmom]

The SHT Fund?

I missed Tom's original post!

Yes, Sk8ingboys Hockey Training Fund.
The SHT Fund.

It's all about the branding.


(I'd throw the word Ice in there, but I can't afford the Dis points. I'm saving up for a special occasion. )

Okay K....you are down for the first reading on 8/24.

Do you want to sing the responsorial psalm as well?

 

[buckifan]

I sent info to DCL regarding Mass, and I asked if it could be listed in the Navigator and if they could donate the use of a microphone free of charge (otherwise, we would not use one)....here is the reply I just received:

No, we cannot put this in the Navigator.
We have to treat this as a private function so it will not be advertised.
I will advise the ship of the table, podium and chair set up. I will see if they can offer a microphone.
Thank you for the information.

Dorothy

So, unfortunately, only those that read the DIS will be aware of the Masses.

Ok, so the other 8 people on the ship won't know?
