An Invasion of a "STRANGER" Kind.... NEW THREAD IS UP!! Go Thee NOW!

[Millie12591]

I soo agree !!!! I remember when I left England it was both exciting and soooo sad !!!

I've always wondered, and you've probably said this before....but when did you leave England to come to the states to live?

 

[Millie12591]

when are you leaving? I was thinking it wasn't untill the end of summer, but you said only 4 more sundays at your local church.....I'm confuzzled.

I do those little count downs too, it helps to pass the time.

Well, as of today just shy (by two days) of 4 months. Wish it were sooner, I'll feel better about their well being once they're back in the states.

We are leaving from our city on August 16th, and out of the big city on the 17th at 3:00 AM.

4 months TO THE DAY!!!!! We only go to our local group once a month. They have not been raided yet, but we try to keep a very low profile, and only go that often. It would be dangerous for us AND for them. The rest of the time our teammate joins our family for home worship.

Smart woman!!!

You know that head line about the teacher in Beaverton, OR and "crashing the tea party"? LeeAnn is ON THAT SCHOOL BOARD!!!!! She is a VERY smart cookie, but can you imagine what she is embroiled in right now?? She is going to need this vacation every bit as much as I will!!!

Things are winding down....bittersweet I'm sure.

VERY!

It's a very strange package- excitement and sadness.

Yes, I'd love to know too, Rosie.

As much as I wish it were sooner, we'll need EVERY DAY of that four months to take care of all that we need to. We feel very safe here, so no worries there. Just dealing with a lot of inconveniences that wear on our souls right now.

Will that be at the Grand Floridian Spa?

That's the one.

I"ve gone to that "menu", and there are so many luxurious and wonderful sounding things to indulge in. But, I do my own pedies, and I think I'll stick with the massage and maybe a scented bath.

I don't know why, but I never even considered the other two.

Hey, this is a bit late, but Mom asked my to tell you that she's going to do another game soon.

IT'S COMING!!! Promise it'll be a fun one!

You'll love it!

Good, I will be looking forward to this!!

We are leaving from our city on August 16th, and out of the big city on the 17th at 3:00 AM.

4 months TO THE DAY!!!!!

And four months until I get to meet you! I just realized that it also is only four months until I move back from Berlin to Nuremberg. While I look forward to going back to my job there, to my friends, my lovely appartment and my parents, I will miss the excitement of the big city and most importantly spending time with my sister.

 

[jenb1023]

I like it so far too, but am totally open to suggestions on how to fine tune it or hints on what we've got to make it go smoother!!

YES!!! That's exactly what I was meaning- you stated it perfectly! I will miss the friends we've made here terribly, but NOT the hardships of daily living!

So glad my ramblings made sense!!!

Looking forward to the new game!

We are off to NYC today to see Mary Poppins on Broadway to celebrate my mom's 60th birthday! I hope to post some FB updates throughout the day so keep an eye out if we are FB friends (and if we are not and you want to be my name is Jennifer Baney).

Have a great day everyone!

REALLY!?? I didn't know that our visit corresponded with that. Are you sure, it's not too much to have us there at the same time? This isn't too big of a conflict?

Getting ready to type up the game on Word now...

They did!

Great!

Even better! I'll check FB later tonight, but it's our Seder Meal tonight, so I"m not sure how much I"ll be on over the weekend. Dinner tonight, Russian circus tomorrow, Zachy's birthday on MOnday. Phew! I'm already worn out!

Hey Liesa!

Looking forward to hearing about the new game.

 

[All7OfUs]

In order to keep our troops trained and ready, it’s time for some more war games! The Officer’s Club, that is this thread, needs a little CPR lately, and some fun and games are just the ticket to breathe new life into it (read: Where have all the lurkers gone??)-Think of it as kind of like Bing Crosby hitting the field camps with a little song and dance to perk up the troops. So, let’s jazz up this joint with an amusing diversion as an interlude between the halves of the Plans of Attack.

Here’s how it works:

You’re going to play the part of “Master Predictor”. And, although you need to get your guesses in by the end of this month, you won’t actually know the answers until we get back. In fact, NONE of The Belle Battalion will even know the answers, because the answers will be happening as we enjoy our Week O’ Freedom. A few things you can probably make some pretty good educated guesses about, but other questions are completely random. Of course, we’ll be having way too much fun to worry about who guessed what, so we won’t skew the results- I promise!

Now, grab a piece of paper and a pencil, and get your thinking caps on. When you’re ready just post your answers. If you WANT to, you can PM them to me, but that’s not necessary. In fact, since it is almost totally just guessing, you don’t even have to add the extra step of whiting out your answers.

And of course, AS ALWAYS there will be fabulous prizes for those who stick it out and hang in there. (I apologize to those of you who won the last game, I still have not done my shopping yet for those wonderful prizes, but I promise, they WILL be on their way soon!)

Here we go:

1) Which building will we end up getting at POP? 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, or 90s?

2) Will we really end up watching the EWP?

3) What color will our first monorail be?

4) How many times will we ride EE? Toy Story? Soarin’? and Splash Mountian?

5) Will LeeAnn make it on time for our ‘Ohana dinner?

6) How many new accessories will Tate O’ Patty end up getting from Once Upon a Toy?

7) How many adult beverages will Liesa actually order and consume?

8 Who will be our very first character we take our picture with?

9) How many rope drops will we really get to?

10) Will we get Halloween decorations or not?

11) Will Liesa get 5, 10, 15, or 20 pictures of fountains (closest number)

12) Which building will we get at the Poly? (do your research)

13) Yes or No? Will we be upgraded at any of our resorts

14) How many of the planned snacks on Liesa’s list will she get? (Go back to Pt. 1 of the PTR and check those out!)

15) Of these CS places that we plan on getting to, which one would we throw out? Pecos? Flame Tree? Starring Rolls? Tangierine Café?

16) Which color of teacup will we take a spin on?

17) Will we make it to all of the following? Hoop de Doo, Yeehaw Bob AND Jellyrolls?

18) How many of our 13 days will it rain?

19) Will the Main Street Electrical Parade still be there for our visit?

20) Will Liesa find and photograph at least 15 Hidden Mickeys??

There you go. Give me your answers numbered with the answer- you know, just try to make it sorta legible and understandable. I am simple and need things easy. Answers are due by the end of April. Good luck!!!

[that's nice]

We are leaving from our city on August 16th, and out of the big city on the 17th at 3:00 AM.

I hope there are no volcanos erupting then... you might have to fly the 'long' way.

You know that head line about the teacher in Beaverton, OR and "crashing the tea party"? LeeAnn is ON THAT SCHOOL BOARD!!!!! She is a VERY smart cookie, but can you imagine what she is embroiled in right now?? She is going to need this vacation every bit as much as I will!!!

I did not hear about that.. but googled it. Crazy.

I think LeeAnn might need more than 1 drink in September.

Not only are you 2 hours behind, you are a month behind too???

 

[Flossbolna]

REALLY!?? I didn't know that our visit corresponded with that. Are you sure, it's not too much to have us there at the same time? This isn't too big of a conflict?

Don't worry, I will only start back working in Nuremberg on 9/1 and will be on vacation during the time you are in Germany. I am planning to enjoy arriving in Nuremberg anyway during that time. Really the move back won't be much since I have a rather small and simple place here in Berlin, most my things are in Nuremberg anyway.

Answers are due by the end of March. Good luck!!!

Not only are you 2 hours behind, you are a month behind too???

Yes, or she has invented time travel and only those in on the secret can participate??

The game looks great and I would love to submit my answers, so please could you be so nice and extend this deadline???

Ahh, that explains it. I was wondering how you'd manage to go through 6 tubes of toothpaste in 4 weeks.

We just wondered about that ourselves. Mike is a geologist, and is trying to find out how long the last problem like this lasted; I hope we don't have to end up flying throught Beijing or something crazy like that!!!

I HAVE to talk to her. I'll bet she's pretty stressed out over this!!

Not only are you 2 hours behind, you are a month behind too???

Ok, ok... Just keepin' you on your toes... Trying to see who's paying attention...

Don't worry, I will only start back working in Nuremberg on 9/1 and will be on vacation during the time you are in Germany. I am planning to enjoy arriving in Nuremberg anyway during that time.

So glad it will work out that we won't be more stress for you! I wouldn't want to miss this DISMEET!!!

If I had invented time travel, I wouldn't be waffling on which massage or spa treatment to get, I'd be rich. In fact, I"d have to so money I could BUY WDW!!

So, yes, just for you, I'll extent my deadline unitl the end of APRIL!!

Ahh, that explains it. I was wondering how you'd manage to go through 6 tubes of toothpaste in 4 weeks.

We have especially fresh breath!
