I have two of those DCL chairs by my pool! I can go out there and daydream.

How did you fit them in your luggage?????

Hasn't she always looked like this?​

YOu know - with all this talk about being so PC on POC several years back you'd think that Disney would give a passing concern about little girl's self-esteem and the realistic body images - but no - the Jasmine's keep getting hotter and hotter down here As for me - I now make a joke out of it and tell my DH (who somehow manages to make it over to the picture taking spot whenever she's around too - quick - count her freckles/age spots....and we're not talking about the face ones either! )

Oh - little tidbit here - I happened to have an extra Wii hanging around and DS told me he found a co-worker to buy it. So yesterday - as I'm returning from picking up the youngest DD from school - a BMW pulls up across my house - as we've been having problems getting egged lately, I, of course, took a passing interest in who it might be - well I look at the girl driving and I say to myself she looks familiar . Then DD -21 comes running out of the house with the WIii seems the coworker was a certain character at DL - wouldn't swear by it.. but I knew I hated her and her freckles!!!! LOL

Here is Ian out of the pool with the kids. DD is the one on the right with the braided hair. I vote for Ian for cruise director, he really made out trip memorable.

He is so great, maybe because he is English, from London, has my sence of humour, or the fac that at every event from 9.00am to 2am he turns up has fun, and makes everyone smile.

Keep an eye out for travel specials -- particularly with August being hurricane season -- sign up for the Travelzoo newsletter,as they keep up with things like this. This is how we got a rate at Atlantis for $119 -- not a day room, just a room I paid for on the internet as if I was staying the night. We checked in , left our things in the room, enjoyed the aquarium,slides, pools, beach, etc., and came back to the room to shower and change before taking a taxi back to the ship.It was wonderful and we would like to go back to Atlantis for several nights one day ...

Its been 11 years since my honeymoon in Cabo... but I think at high tide lovers beach dissapears.. and yes. Divorce beach is on the Pacific side next to lovers beach. We went to divorce beach and I got stung by some sort of sea creature!

Cabo is great and I cant wait to see how its changed.

I highly recommend going 4 wheeling to Cabo Falso. A totally wild experience.

I rank it up there with snowmobiling in Yellowstone or Driving in Tortilla Flat AZ.

Love it! Tell Julie thats what I look like in mens clothes! ( on Saturday)

Well,it's no wonder you don't have dogs, then -- it would be hard to do all the walkies in a tux . . .

Less than 2 hours now until Sunday (in London) . . .

Sad but true...I was the ringleader of the Wild Women of the Walt!

Bad timing? What did I miss? What happened? Other than my friend having to leave on the first day because her sister died back home........

Naw - nothing for the whole ship - things were fine and dandy until I was notified in Barbados that my best friend (40 at the time and had a 10 year old and 18 months old) died while we were in St. Lucia but I didn't get notified until Barbados. I couldn't get off the ship so I missed that - It was unexpected. Kinda put a damper on everything for a long time... Then I ended up losing my pictures in Antigua - my card got mojo'd and Ithought I lost everything, then.....my brand new camcorder that I was only using for the 2nd time? Well, um... DH broke it in Antigua!


But on the Flip side, NOW...I can laugh about losing a brand new camcorder..... - Time does heal all wounds..

I'll have to post the reason why I'm laughing at losing a $1500 Xmas gift. You'll all laugh too when I do. I certainly took to heart the meaning - if life gives you lemons - make lemonade!

I'll probably post later this evening as I will be up for another round of egg bashers!

And...along with my DCL loungers to carry me through, I have these gems. Used to be in the display at Mickey's Mates. I was going to put them out by my pool, but was afraid they'd get all faded in the sun. So they are in front of the fireplace in my bedroom

$119. What a bargain! I've heard rooms go for $400+ there.

I know -- I had Comfort Suites booked at about $200, and then the Travelzoo deal came out and I jumped on it! It was a terrific day.

I'm sorry about your friend! We certainly understand how that can really mess up the trip. I think people must have thought we were insane, sobbing and hugging Sharon as she left the ship that first day.

I accidentally deleted all the pics on my camera on the May Double Scoop cruise. Luckily, my Shutter's heroes saved them all for me, and put them on disk!! I love those guys!!

Seeing your clock a reminder:-

CHANGE YOUR CLOCKS

SPRING FORWARD FALL BACK

Now as in snow white, with too little sleep I can see you all will be a little

GRUMPY

in the morning.

So do not stay up late posting, go to bed early!

I have to get my Sunday best on

TTFN

Love you all!!!!

Here is Ian out of the pool with the kids. DD is the one on the right with the braided hair. I vote for Ian for cruise director, he really made out trip memorable.

'

He gets my vote - on a funny note - DH was walking behind me - we're in the office/spare bedroom and this picture came up - now remember all this is the VCR man ( ) can't remember names or faces - he just commented: I don't know how that man has so much energy! I could never do that. Yeah trust him to recognize Ian!

Oh also, the earlier picture of him walkig down the Deck 4 aisle - I hugged him and got all wet just before that was snapped. I followed his wetsetps back the other direction and laughed.

I couldn't find any cabin photos, but ran across these two of my now-five-year-old daughter from 2002. (She was 9 months).

CUTE
