Hi All!

The four week dance is truly a blast! Our anniversary is going along swimmingly, and I have a correction for the info regarding one of the families in my group. Cabin number 2100 is "Disney4BB" aka Barrett, Ken , Serena and Chad.

Kim/Tom please make the necessary adjustments... Oh and are we trying to chat via Facebook this evening? i expect to be around after 7:30 PDT.

Robin, if you are around we can do the iPad thing once again

Take care all, help lots of people and have a "Wonder"ful day!

That's how I felt today....like time was crunching in on me....after all we've only had about 3 years to plan this

I wish I didn't have to Plan what to do when in Vancouver and whistler but ressis are a must when planning out your day. mostly in Whistler because what we have planned will fill up fast that week because of all the people coming up for the bike event.

I like to have a plan but also like to be spontaineous.

So what do you still have to do?

We are going to play a lot of it by ear when we are in Seattle and Vancouver. We are ready, just need to get my butt in gear with FEs. I think I have all the clothes, need to check on my husband.

Hi! I just checked to see if anyone was on FB and heard crickets, the garden variety kind not the Jiminy kind.

I also just took a look at your schedule for the pre-cruise days. With the pace you areq going to be keeping I am afraid that once you hit the hay on the ship you won't wake up again until we are docking in Vancouver again.

We haven't made any plans for pre-cruise as of yet. And only sketchy ones for a few days post cruise.

If you are around on FB (or if anyone else is and you fancy a chat I am up for it.

Take care all, help lots of people and have a "Wonder"ful day!

yes lots going on...busy stuff for the boys but also in between stuff that has us old folks sitting . The Gondola up and back before hiking and tubing is a 45 minute trip....rest for the weary...eating is sitting...shows are sitting...limo is sitting...lots of sitting between events and some events like whitewater rafting is sitting...it is work on the body but sitting none the less..

Lots of sitting also on our cruise events...the only thing that has much moving in it is the Trek on the Glacier....

However it is still a lot of not relaxing in the hotel room....we are so jazzed...jazzed jazzed jazzed And none of this for 2 weeks well not much of it anyway..will still have to do laundry on the ship but that's way easy to do.

We have looked at the amenities list, but did not see a clothes iron on the list? Could someone please tell me if they usually have an iron and ironing board in the room.
Thank you!

Actually, due to fire risk, irons are not allowed in staterooms. There are irons and ironing boards in each laundry room.

True...I have brought my iron for ever but am very careful with it and only leave the cabin once it is totally cooled off. I iron on a towel on the floor not on the furniture.....

Many people who bring irons have been irresponsible so they have asked no irons. They are not forbidden in the respect you would think...My room Stewarts know I have one and I don't hide it. I iron everything and my boys go through clothes like crazy so if I stayed at the iron after laundry than no one would ever get a chance to use it.

If you don't have tons to iron than just use the one in the laundry room...I may not bring mine this trip because it is not like the boys will be going through clothing like when we are in the hot weather. And they are older.Another reason I have brought my iron is we always alway do a week before our cruise somewhere and in many hotels the irons don't get hot enough...

What I don't get is that they don't want irons but curling irons and flat irons are fine....go figure. And most curl their hair not in the bathroom because it is to small.

 

[babsy6872]

Thank you for the info. The iron in the laundry room will do the trick. We will be traveling for two days and I know how wrinkly everything is going to get.
