A huge shout out to Kristin for the countless hours expended on the FE lists. Now they are out of her hands and we don't want her to have to do anything else! We should all buy her the drink of the day whenever we run into her on the ship!

Beth

Love that idea of a drink!! Heck, for a drink I will do more FE lists!!

I'm good!! How is your ankle??

Ankle is good. A bit soar today from being in and out of the pool!!

Has there been anymore discussion about a dinner meet up the night before the cruise?

If someone would like to make a restaurant recommendation, I don't mind making the reservation. Since we've never been to Port Canaveral I'm not up on where the best places to eat are!

A meet would be lots of fun. I'm up for whatever everyone decides.

Take care of yourself!!

My vote is you stay at the Residence Inn!!

You are too funny! I am looking and crunching numbers now....

How was your day??

not bad

woke up to heavy rain / thunderstorm so didn't drive out to Lime Rock for the Rolex GT Grand Am race. I missed James Glickenhouse's $5 mil one of a kind P4/5 (posted pics from my bud on FB)

Spent some time with the kids in the pool after it cleared up and warmed up

did a grocery run and Starbucks stop in the Ferrari with my daughter - thats always fun!

a good day

you??

Hi all, back from a weekend of fun in the sun and boy are we burnt to a crisp!
Just wanted to let you all know that if you are still looking for the 9" vinylmations I just ordered one from the outlet in TX they still had about 10 total left a couple of white, a yellow, red, black, and a few purple ones. They were $30 after tax and shipping (which was a rip off!) but at least it wasn't the $40-$50 I've seen them going for on e-bay. The phone number for the Diseny outlet is 512) 392-8880.

Sounds like a perfect day!!

Once the rain cleared up we hung out in the pool!! The water is perfect almost 90 degress. Just the way that I like it!!

My girls each have them for the cruise. They are going to have them signed by the characters!!

Are they big enough to hold signatures? Where do I find a picture of these things?

Oh yes!! Look on Disney Shopping.com they have them but they are all sold out. We only get the solid color ones!!

Ben has (and LOVES) a couple of the vinylmations. I would have never thought that the solid ones could be used for signatures. Are there any pictures anywhere of one that is signed?

I really like the idea of getting one for Ben.

I just saw the colored 9 inch ones over the weekend at our local Disney Outlet store for $19.99. I bought two purple ones for the August cruise. Each time we go we get them signed for our girls and they put them up by their trophies on the top shelf of their bookcases. I have to say, my favorite are the white ones from our first cruise. The characters signed them with different colored sharpies and they look awesome.

Do you have any pictures of them?

I might have to call our Disney store and see if they have any. If not, I might order some because DS would just love to add these to his Disney themed room!

I am going to do a search for them.
