the last of the ketchup. boy am i glad we've slowed down!
According to this map, the Disney Magic is sailing
"IN" the middle of Spain right now(27-May 0200)..............a little goof up I'd say................
I read somewhere that they'd made the Magic amphibious during her last dry dock. Did you miss the article??
And even things she did learn she kept that information to herself- apparently. She would learn things (pre-school years) and was not the least bit interested in sharing that fact with you. It was one of my worries when she started K- because I honestly thought she was going to have to learn a LOT in K. But she surprised me.. she did a complete turn-around on that aspect with her teacher. She just finished 1st grade so I can remember K vividly and how surprised I was those first few months... when the teacher would tell me how much she already knew when she started K, how well she did with the testing they do at the beginning of the year to see where everyone is "at" and such. Apparently she had learned quite a bit -just wasn't motivated or interested in telling us or showing us that she'd learned so much.
My younger brother did the same thing. My parent were convinced he didn't know how to read. The got a new bike ofr Xmas when he was in 3rd grade and Dad told him he couldn't ride it until he'd read the owners manual. Mom chided Dad for setting the bar too high - "you know he can't read." 45 minutes later, after having passed the little quiz on the manual Dad gave him - he was on that bike.
He could read perfectly well, just never bothered to let one about it.
So he's home now and in great spirits. He evidently sneaked out right past Alicia as she came IN. I still don't know HOW ON EARTH a 120 pound Samoyed can sneak out the front door and gate past my under 100 pound spouse as she came IN the door. But he did it!
Anyways... below is a photo from a few weeks ago of SUGAR in the bath tub. If you peer carefully you can see the water is not exactly clear....
So glad you've got Sugar back. It's such a worry when they get out.
We've lost our several times over the years. The strangest was probably Jet-A who spent 4 days running the top of Bull Run Mt. in VA. It was a busman's holiday - she didn't come home hungry. Though she did crate herself in one of the three crates we left out for the purpose when she was ready to come home.
The most worrisome was Digit who was gone for 5 days here in Sacramento - in town. We knew where she was, we were constantly getting phone calls from our signs. But she wasn't having anything to do with anybody. She'd crossed 4 major intersections by the time he managed to be in the same place at the same time. She didn't recognize my husband, but did make a beeline for the car.
BTW. That was one DIRTY dog!!
At least with this crowd, there are enough of us nuts that take 5,000+/- pix that we can give you all the good scenery if it happened again....
You know if we ever get a website we should think about setting it up so that after the fact everyone can FTP they photos up for sharing.
My sister came over to show me the CC cards that she received (did not get mine!) and I went on to search for the threads to show her what the stateroom gift might be. She very innocently asked if anyone from the repo cruise had started a thread!
That's a good idea, someone should start one. Maybe a website too!
You think we could get t-****s????
Five years ago my dad bought a bag of junk home that had a bunch of old VHS tapes in it. One of the movies was SOS.
They put SOS out on VHS??? I SO want that movie. I didn't think they'd ever released it to the home audiences. Wonder if I could find it on eBay...
What a great movie. I remember seeing it in the theater clearly. Though the first one I saw - that I remember was Fantasia - in a theatre. I remember winter fairies, the hippos, and the devil at the end (which frightened me pretty badly - I watched it on mom's lap under her poncho with one eye peeking out form under the neck line)
Well I'm off for bed. I've got to be up extra early to start a class for a couple of guys in rissia at 6am!!
