We haven't had one show and sell yet - I'm hoping that when we're out and about this weekend we'll find some. I need some Tag-a-longs!

The box of Tagalongs lasted about 8 hours in our house.

 

[buckifan]

ME TOO!!!!!!!!

Oh my......That's our room too! We can all have a big slumber party!

 

[justmestace]

We'll be in Maui 3/15 - 3/19 and Oahu 3/19 - 3/23.

I am SOOOOO jealous!!

Truly a nice picture - will have to dig it out and post it here if any one is interested????? OK - them are my 2 cents on one of my favorite memories of that day!

Yes, yes, please!

Oh, he'll be back. Monica will develop some ground-breaking heart restoration procedure that will restore him to life.

Either that, or they'll go with the evil twin angle.

Don't you mean niwtlive?

I have Homer Simpson's beer song running through my head now:

DO, the stuff, that buys me beer
RAY, the guy I buy beer from
ME, the guy, who drinks the beer
FA, a long way to my beer
SO, I think I'll have a beer
LA, la la la la la beer
TI, no thanks, I'll have a beer
That brings us back to beer, beer, beer, beer.

I love that song! Cheers to you JR!

WOW! I remember that last part vividly - I was standing on Deck 7 as we left the very last lock. I remember my camera battery was low and I didn't have my flash as the batteries had died after all day use HOWEVER - the photogods were smiling down on me and I guessed that I had 1 -3 shots left before it died for good. As we left the last lock it was just past twilight, dinner was starting in 1/2 hr and I managed to capture the most awesome shot off the back (bow?) of the locks closing with the water empty. Beautiful blue background with the lights haloing for effect. SIGH! I was sorry to see it go - thought I would never get to experience that feeling ever again! NOT! Flashforward to 2 years and a few days to the day and I will be experiencing it again! Yeah - Hoorah!

Anyway, as a going away gift I made a copy (DH NEVER travels w/o his printer and laptop) of this last shot for all our tablemates, stuck it on a magnet and typed the name of the lock, our e-mail address and home address on it and gave it to them on the last night. Also made some copies for our servers. Truly a nice picture - will have to dig it out and post it here if any one is interested????? OK - them are my 2 cents on one of my favorite memories of that day!

AWESOME!!! I can't wait to see it....your picture and the real thing!

Congrats!!! For someone not being here much, nice job!!!

I'm happy Rebecca can join GS this year. We don't have anyone selling in our neighborhood and they only did one 'show and sell' at the grocery store. So we only could buy a couple of boxes.
I need a case.

Only if the cookies ae THIN MINTS,

You might want to be careful here....both my DH and DS are named John.....I can scream JOHNNNNNNNNN pretty darn good!!! You'd answer whether it was you name or not (but it is)

I have had 38 years of experience yelling for two John's. Maybe we could have a contest ???

Presently 40 going up to 71 here in Sunny Central Florida

Your weather reports are depressing me evey morning. Our is standard is 20 to 30 with possible snow.

Since we are going to be tablemates of yours(did Pam tell you) it sure sounds like a great idea. (HINT HINT)

And if your on this thread and you win ...you have to pay everyones balance off ...

Figuring 900 staterooms at a blance of $6,000 that is till only $54,000,000. As long as it is just deposits and not the bar bill.

OK, Miss 89-leg-shaving-degrees!
Today's high 12, low -2, wind gusting to 45 mph. Wind chill blah, blah, blah (I blacked it out, that's my coping mechanism!)

We've never been to Hawaii, so we're very excited!

 

[ChrizJen]

OK, I have given up on the ketchup today and settled for the recap...
I am SO sleepy today!! I woke up at 430 this morning and could not get back to sleep!!
I need a REAL day off work...One where I don't have to do more work than if I were here at work!!

The box of Tagalongs lasted about 8 hours in our house.

UMMMM...a box of Tagalongs doesn't even last THAT long in our house...

 

[justmestace]

I have a question and I don't know if it has been answered already, here goes:

Has anyone booked their hotel for Ca pre cruise?

I have never been to CA so I am wondering where to stay.
One of the DL hotels or(we plan on going to DL and CA)one of the hotels nearby? Should I rent a car or just use their transfers? PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Thanks in advance!

Sorry if I'm repeating, and someone else answered...but the Disneyland Hotels don't open their bookings until the one year-out date.
Some people have booked Howard Johnson's nearby the parks.
I don't know a thing about the transportation/transfers....sorry.

But we don't have exotic flowers, palm trees and ocean! THAT'S the part I want to see. We've never been there either.

Okay everyone ...you heard it ...if she wins the Lotto were all sailing for FREE ....

 

[jonesing]

How about this one......

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

traditional gaelic blessing

Lo there, do I see my father
Lo there, do I see my mother
   and my sister and my brothers
Lo there I do see the line of my people back to the beginning
Lo they do call to me
They bid me to take my place among them
in the hallowed halls of Valhalla
Where the brave shall live forever
~ Viking liturgy

Ours too... I hope you don't mind a 1YO in the room; Yup, we have a TBD cabinmate that will be born sometime in May... I wonder how many Pack&Play's will fit in this suite?

Good point. I forgot about the scenery. I've been concentrating on the WARM!

I just booked HoJo's for a pre-cruise stay and the first 2 people I spoke with told me they can only book 1 year out. I finally spoke with another woman who did book it for me, and gave me a conf #.

I booked 2 rooms, both with 2 queen beds on an upper floor w/balcony facing Disneyland.....$99/night.....$94.05 with a military discount.

I think that's the other group sailing on the eastbound repo with us . . . when we got the surprise email a while back it had a link to another site that I think might have been called that (can't remember for sure).
