So I don't have the itinerary memorized (yet). I can't wait for Roger's post to see where we'll be one year from tomorrow.

Check the website, I spent a few minutes creating a "virtual cruise" link with all the photos, etc. that were posted.

PENN STATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those bracelets would make great fish extender gifts........


Speaking of that...have we given any thought to whether or not we're going to try to do that? With a group this big, we'd almost have to divide it up alphabetically or something.

I'll take all the "X"s !!

There were a couple volunteers that will take a look at that and update a sign up list as we get into the fall...

Dividing up is not a bad idea tho.....

Don't forget the heat that's following the lovely rain and humidity.....

Yeah, that helps...

Ahh the death trees of the mall....

 

[tom31b]

Hmmm.... you a PSU alum?

Of course, coming from the "tour of colleges" (I had a few) and ultimately graduating from one that a few years later changed its name, I suffer from a lack of undergrad identity.....

 

[tom31b]

Yeah, that helps...

Looks like our friends on the TransAtlantic have a cloud free Atlantic right now

Ahhhh! I am finally done filing my big bad tax return for my employer

The big bad 391,620 row e-file XML was accepted by the IRS a couple hours ago.

Now I can go into vacation mode!

And finished just in time for my first DCL this coming Sunday!

Note to self, figure out a way to finish one week earlier next year!

Bon Voyage Sil! Have a great cruise and WDW trip!

I was just reading the tipping thread on the main board.

I was wondering if it's possible to prepay the tips for the cruise. If so, how would I you go about doing that.

We were figuring that out last night too. Yikes, it adds up quickly when you're tipping for 5.

Just a quick post before I do some ketchup. Had to show you what I got on QVC the other day...

They're sterling and very light,I thought they were sooo cute.

They're really nice. Glad DW didn't see them!

My spouse would quip that she has a crazy 40 something critter in her home too!

​

I smile every time I see that picture!

Diane,

I've been checking out RCCL for November when Angelina is off for Jersey Week. I decided to book us on a 4 day Sovereign of the Seas cruise leaving from Port Canaveral. I got us a Cat. H porthole cabin on deck 2, the price for the three of us, including tax, port fees and tips(paid in advance) came to $902.82, the same 4 day sailing of the Wonder that week would have been $1701.43 not including tips. This is going to be our big family Christmas gift this year. I read what you wrote earlier about your Sovereign of the Seas 3 day cruise, and thought it sounded nice. I just shared the news with Hazel and Angelina and they are from ear to ear.

Congrats Andy! I'm sure you, Hazel, and Angelina will have a great time!

My work day now starts at 6:30 a.m. Had my first day at my new school today. Did I mention that I'm now the cashier? It wasn't too bad. I just wonder if I'll be able to remember 200+ names But that's better than the 400+ I had at my old school!

Have a great school year Debi!

In 24 hrs... we'll be landing in FL right now....

I'm all ketchupped.... Don't leave me tons of reading to do when i get back.

I might be able to check in from work tomorrow....

Otherwise... See you guys on Monday

Have fun!!!

Of course, coming from the "tour of colleges" (I had a few) and ultimately graduating from one that a few years later changed its name, I suffer from a lack of undergrad identity.....

I suffer from lack of something to watch on Saturdays in the fall:

OU - yeah, MAC conference and not all that good (despite Joel's illusions)
CGA - DH went to D-III school
UConn - I HATE basketball & football is nothing to write home about
U of Hartford - doesn't even pretend to have a football team
U of Alaska Anchorage - Go Seawolves! (Umm, hockey, not football)

Closest I get is my Dad who went to U of Illinois for grad school (a well known football powerhouse)

So, I NEED to get my PhD just to have a football team.

Now, why do they call it "Happy Valley"? (anything to do with giving a bright happy name to a place in middle of Pennsyltucky?)

I admit, its has been an incredibly long time since I checked in, but now that's its less than one year until we leave I thought it was time to log back in. It looks like all the information was gone from the first post. Sorry because I am sure this has been answered, but is it set up somewhere else now? I never received a link to a separate web site. Thanks, hope everyone is well and enjoying their summers!

My parents said I had to go to a state school. It takes 4 hours to drive across Ohio - so I went to school 4 hours away! Ummm, D-1 football too---sorta.
