Oh forgot to mention that even though Santa did leave some gifts under the tree for Dante.........Come Christmas day, Dante thought they were ALL for him. Just like a kid, after opening a gift, played with for one min. he would come back running to the tree wagging his tail waiting for the next gift.

With everybody talking about boarding their furr kids, I got to thinking.... Wonder if I can Pre Pay my vet like we can pre pay the CM's tips? Sounds good to me.

And for thefinal question posed in 2007 ... by popular demand.... Tell us something about you we (probably) don't know... ![/COLOR]
I made medical history when I was born - yeup - you actually know a "first" baby. First child born to a mother with an artifical heart valve. Got may 15 minutes of fame when I was 3-days old. Didn't even get to enjoy it. Pthththt.

Wow I know someone famous!

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you all had a great (long) weekend !


Diane I can't belive I missed your Bday! Hope it was great! The Pats game was great wasn't it!?

And for thefinal question posed in 2007 ... by popular demand.... Tell us something about you we (probably) don't know... !
I trained to be an astronaut!!!!

Chrissie

I did have a great birthday Chrissie thanks! The Pats are awesome...hope they keep it up!

An astronaut huh? That's pretty cool!

Took DS to the neuro surgeon for his follow up. He got cleared to go back to school on Monday. No more house arrest. He won't be back in PE until the end of the month. And no contact sports until March.

But there doesn't seem to be any lasting damage. They were initially concerned about possible hearing loss. But weird thing is it seems as it he hearing slightly improved. He hasn't been wearing his hearing aids but he hasn't had to have the TV up as loud as he used to. Could be that he just doesn't really care about paying attention to the programs. We'll be scheduling a full hearing test in a few weeks.

Glad to hear the good news Monica! Thanks for the update!

Happy Belated Birthday to Diane & Pam

Thanks Tina! Dante looks adorable!

Hi everyone! It's been a while. Glad to see everyone is still here. I finally got web access at work again so I can check out what's going on again.

Hello!!! I think we're all getting excited around here!

Welcome aboard!

I'm interested to find out too. I'll be calling DCL later today and see if I can get some more information. My guess is that it will only work in Port Canaveral and not in LA, but we will see.

I'm sure if you sent your agent your flight info, she would be more than happy to update DCL

Thanks Tracy!!!! You are awesome!!!! Going to have a heat wave here over the weekend. I will send it to you in a few hours. I have to go find it all.

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Just wanted to stop in and say hello. I have been fighting this horrible cold since before Christmas and it won't leave me alone!! Happy 2008 everyone.

Geeuz, Mike you took the idea right out of my head. I was thinking that would make an awesome door sign for all participants.

What I have found out from DCL regarding the airline check in is that you must have transfers with DCL (at least one way from the ship to the airport). You don't have to have roundtrip transfers with DCL. You have to be flying out of the airport the transfers will take you to (in other words, you can't be flying out of Sanford and use the airline check in). I didn't get an answer about whether or not you can use the airline check in from LA or not (because we don't need it ), but it sounds like Cheryl will be able to do this.

Starting to get things done around here, now that the holidays are over.

I have a DS 13 and DD11 (12 at cruise time) - they are interested in making some cruise friends before we sail. So, if your child would like to exchange emails please PM me - thanks in advance from Karl and Erica.

Just a heads up for people with flights outside the US - we found out that you can't use this service last August. Might have changed but I doubt it.

Back from our roadtrip. The new warehouse is truly in citrus country. The names of some of the roads started with Minute Maid. Nuff said. If anyone had been to the original location at the airport this is larger. But the stuff is all over the place. The bedspread form DCL I wanted was not there but another one I didn't like as much. Saw some furniture and if it hadn't been so deep I would've bought it. See picture ...... There was a lot of STUFF. The best thing we saw was going for $1600 and I thought the Captain might be interested. By the way, it is lifesize.

This is the piece I really wanted and it was really a steal at I think around 75. There was a sony color tv missing the remote that he was selling for $20. He had tons of them.

Inside view of the main building.

Tons of stuff all over

That is the furniture he has on ebay. The good pieces are inside and that looked like all the damaged ones. We came home empty handed.We then headed home and stopped at IKEA to pick up the shower curtain they forgot to ring up last time. I should've gotten at least one of the tvs.

 

[m&m's mom]

Guess I am back to my 15 passenger van.
I don't know why I fall for these things from DCL.
In our cruises case, the check in does not work either unless you have transfers from PC to MCO or air and transfers. LAX to port would not involve any airport check-in so it does not apply.
So you either have to buy transfers or you are on your own. I still fail to see how this is any different than what happens now. We have a 2:00 flight so it would not pay to get DCL transfers or we would be at the airport forever. I want to do what we did last time which was going to DTD or one of the hotels in the meantime.
Next time there is some kind of DCL "press release" that involves air or transfer everyone repeat "Coral, step away from the computer. If it sound too good to be true, it is!"

The pics are cool of your day trip up to the Mousesurplus place. Where abouts on EBAY are items listed? I cann't make to the brick and mortar location (just a little too far) but I sure can make it to the internet one. I love things like this.

Thanks for the pictures Arlene. I would love to go pokibg around the warehouse, but would probably get myself in trouble. DW keeps trying to talk me into renting a truck one way to buy an entertainment armoire from Animal Kingdom Lodge and drive it home!

It's been a while, but I think I just do an advanced search and put in mousesurplus as the seller.

Missed this before, so I had to come back to say that this is great news Monica. That's a great way to start 2008!
