8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 3

Tattoos ...what do you mean by Tattoos ???? a contest ???

OH NO!!!!!!

 

[got2travel]

Not true. Pirate Captains where elected by the crew, and quite often the Captain would change when the crew felt the captain was not enough of a pirate. Obviously the case with the crew of the Black Pearl.

uh oh....Someone's disagreeing with the Captain

 

[lbgraves]

Oh, like Kim be who stole, I mean got, the first 10,000th post

Andy, I think that you are the only person on the boards who could get away with saying that and smile.

RM - they are exactly the same stateroom but 8's are higher on the ship
I think deck 5, 6 and 7

Cat 9's are only on decks 1 & 2

I thought the 8's had the large window and the 9's had the small portholes???

 

[lbgraves]

Oh ...I was going to say if it were a tattoo contest i think I could win hands down ...

....No....I don't think I am going to say anything.

 

[lbgraves]

I'm just hoping I haven't ticked off the Tag Fairy somewhere along the way and he/she hasn't just been waiting for tag me with "I'm a simpleton and a drunk"

LOL! Isn't that how it always works?

 

[lbgraves]

So.... anyone have any ideas for an 8 year olds Pirate Party? I'm thinking the balloons should probably be red and black (unless I can actually find ones with skull & crossbones!) Maybe get some pirate flags to hang off the tent. Any creative thoughts???

P.S Bear Down Chicago Bears!

Oriental trading has some great stuff for pirate parties!

The 8s & deck 2 9s have the large portholes. The deck 1 9s have the 2 smaller portholes.

I can't tell you how glad I am that I was able to book this cruise this week.

Other than that, this whole week sucked!

None of us are thrilled about where the Coast Guard is sending us for the next 4 years. No offense to DC folks, I'm sure it's a lovely city, but it's - well - a big city & I don't think it is going to fit us very well.

Then we had to put our dog to sleep this morning. We found out last Aug. that she had cancer & we knew it was only a matter of time. She was our 'practice kid'. We got her when we were first married. It was a rough morning but DSs are holding up pretty well now.

So, who has good news?? I don't mean to bring the thread down, I just needed to have a moment. OK now I'm going to go look for a post to make a smart a** comment about...

I hope things start looking up for you. Remember, you have Hawaii soon.

MY GOD!!!

You're RIGHT!

Take a look at these photos I enlarged and color corrected at the bottom....

<chuckles>

<Please forgive my hubris ... It's all in pursuit of a few chuckles>

And just so you will know - I've got a bummer of a birth mark too on my forehead too! It only shows up under ultra violet light though... and I inserted a synthetic "mask" in a vain attempt to protect the "innocent"

OMG that is too too funny

DS has just decided to have his b-day party in May themed "Pirates"! This is big news because we have had the exact same Mickey & Friends party for his 5th, 6th & 7th birthdays. He had to have everything the same each time - same decorations, same cake design, same balloons, etc. About the only thing that changed was the stuff in the "loot bags" we sent home with the kids. Hooray! Something different

We actually do a huge, at home party. It is more common around here to have parties out somewhere (ChuckyCheese, SafariLand, Gymnastics Gyms, Bowling Alleys, Movies, etc.) Instead, we have a large yard and a couple big party tents. When we put up the tents side by side we have a 20'x20' area and can even put sides on it if the weather is terrible. Then we invite ALL the kids from his class at school, family friends, and neighborhood friends. Since his b-day is May 1st, there is always a number that can't make it do to graduations, weddings, confirmations, etc. but we usually have around 15-20 kids!

So.... anyone have any ideas for an 8 year olds Pirate Party? I'm thinking the balloons should probably be red and black (unless I can actually find ones with skull & crossbones!) Maybe get some pirate flags to hang off the tent. Any creative thoughts???

if there are any repeat repo cruisers who have pictures from previous cruise myself and dw would love to see them if you do not mind sharing them or if you have a website with pictures that would be great.. thank you

 

[amesmom]

Kim, now you have to switch over from the May repo!

If you want her, you'll have to fight us for her. She's ours. Aarrrgh.

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

OH NO!!!!!!

Hey, if there is a tatoo contest on board the ship- I'll atleast be in the running. Doubt anyone else has mickey on their toe.

 

[got2travel]

The 8s & deck 2 9s have the large portholes. The deck 1 9s have the 2 smaller portholes.

Thanks. I thought it was all 9's that's why I went for an 8 for my parents. Shhh, don't tell them I cost them more money.

Hey everyone- what is the difference between a cat 6 and cat 5? Is it just where the room is located? I looked and everywhere I have looked I have not seen a difference except in price. They are both verandah rooms -cat 4 is different and ofcourse the suites 1-3 are different. But what exactly is the difference between cat 5 and cat 6 to make up such a difference in price?

 

[justmestace]

OMG that is too too funny

What's even MORE funny is that he slapped "sucker" on my husband's forehead, not mine! Just might be true, he married me, afterall......
