8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 15

[MrsScooby]

Does anyone collect charms for the old-fashioned kind of charm bracelet?

I have one and I try to get a charm in every port we're at. (I'm betting Cartagena might be tough) but anyway......the last time the Magic did the Mexican Riviera they saved me a ton of trouble...they had charms that had DCL on one side, and each port on the other.

Just a little tid bit for collectors.

Thanks
My DH gave me a charm bracelet as my wedding gift, so this will be perfect

There have been a few places where I could not find ones with the name of the island on them, so I bought something to "remind" me of that place. So I now have a turtle, a dolphin, a starfish and a seashell with a pearl in it....but I don't remember where I got them!

That is true about that part. I can't for the life of me think of the different ones I have. I'll have to get it out tomorrow and plan on taking it Monday to get the charms put on. I do try to avoid the ones with points. I have one or 2 on there that like to poke me!

My mom and her "friend" Walt decided to join us in November on our 4 day cruise to the Bahamas. I just finished placing their ressie online and was able to get them a cabin just two doors down from us.

I told my mom, maybe she and Walt can use this cruise for their Honeymoon...............

How nice Andy

Here are a few pics of the tornado that came thru on Thursday. This was less than six blocks away. Took mostly video clips but haven't figured out how to post those yet.

The 4th picture is a trampolene up in tree about 30 feet from where it should have been. It was heavily anchored into the ground.
The last picture the house has a 20 foot hole in the roof, it's covered with a tarp now.

Cheryl

WOW
Glad you're ok.

Hi, we're back it was a great day! The weather held out til we had moved indoors. The heat was oppressive and it was good to be in the a/c. Peter and all were the most gracious hosts and outdid themselves and went so overboard making u feel at home
Here is the group photo.Thanks to Micmse2003 for talking me thru.

Ill try to identify everyone. I do apologize I didn't get the kids names in the front.

Glad that you are OK Cheryl. That is too close for comfort.

Happy News!!!​

Took my oldest son (currently 19) to NYC for his 6 month check-up on Thursday. Everything went well, but now we have the official news: his PET and CT were clean. That means five years clean: He's now considered cured!!!

​

​

Of course, he said he was cured once they stopped treatments, but I'm one happy momma!​

That is great news! Go out and celebrate.

Just returned from Wicked. It was a spectacular performance.

Pantages Theater on Hollywood Blvd.

Pantages with the Capital Record building in the background.

Hollywood Walk of Fame

Felt like a tourist taking pictures down there. It actually rained (OK sprinkled) on us on the way down to Hollywood from Hurricane Dean.

Yes and he gave out goodie boxes for the kids as well including the patch. Now to decide what to put it on.

Let me tell you it came down in buckets before we left at 7:30 let up long enough to get the car and continued even after we got home.

I am so happy for you!!!

I am 6 years and counting!!!!

Now Cheryl...

... heres' something we don't see very often in Southern California. Once in a while a tree falls over of old age around here - but tornado activity is fairly rare! I know his was a few blocks from ya - and as such I hope the collateral effects at your home were not nearly as severe.

Hey look... flying pencils and books - just the thing for "back to School"!​

Okay Tom you are truly the master of posting.

Cheryl, I have to admit I don't miss that at all. The one we lived through in Nebraska in 1975 was enough for me.

Take care back there!!

Five years til Florida and counting!!! I hate our weather here!!!

I'm so glad you are all safe and sound!! Our area went through this same thing all Spring and the first part of Summer long... We were so blessed that nothing bad happened to our home (we don't have basements here).

More bad news about our *hopeful* WDW trip.... Jon has meetings every day from this past week through the next 2 weeks.....concerning the England deal and the new building (a few 100,000 sq ft) that he is in charge of making sure the remodeling is done right and on time -- he is in the process of interviewing comercial contracters and comercial interior designers. We could never have quessed a few weeks ago that he was going to be doing ALL of this!! This is how he is feeling about it all

Yesterday he came home for lunch (his office is about 7mins away) and spent a few moments looking at the DCL site before going back to work..... And he is working today....next Saturday.....

Stepahnie, I will be the one seeing how disappointed Alex will be not seeing Samantha. You could manage a weekeend. You need a break from your last vacation!!!

Those are some amazingly scary pitcures. This morning on the news there was a report showing them sandbagging to hold back potential flooding in Wheeling, IL. Isn't someone from our thread from there - I couldn't remember. I do hope everyone is/stays safe!!!

The water is still rising in our rivers here. I am fortunate enough we do not live near any water. I feel so sorry for all the flooding throughout the country.

My mom and her "friend" Walt decided to join us in November on our 4 day cruise to the Bahamas. I just finished placing their ressie online and was able to get them a cabin just two doors down from us.

I told my mom, maybe she and Walt can use this cruise for their Honeymoon...............

Sounds like you could be a best man!!!! I am glad your mom is crusing with you again.

Cheryl -- glad to hear you are okay. Thanks to these storms, our flight out of MCO was cancelled Thursday and we just got back to Chicago from MIAMI a few hours ago. It's a long story I will tell when I have recovered. Definitely not our most fun Disney vacation ever....

J. R.

I can't wait to hear what I am heading down for!!! Sounds like you needed tons of pixie dust.

 

[m&m's mom]

I love the Meet pictues and the show building pictures.
Looks like you all had a great day!

Just wanted to check in and thank Pete for the wonderful time we had today at the meet today. I hope he sees this when he gets home and has a chance to ketchup. Everyone was so nice and it was great getting to put faces to the names.
