Very appropriate that the milestone goes to one who's been here from Day 1 and contributed a lot to this achievement! Congratulations, again!

Arlene

I'll second that. Well done Marsha. Have you received your envelope with money in yet from Allan? He told me he posted it from Seattle yesterday, I think.

Thanks Barb for the heads up - I ordered one of the DVD players too. DH says I should order another so the kids each have their own. Talk about spoiling them... and I thought I was bad - LOL.

Dang! If you were in 6069 you would have been across the hall from me (6068)!!

Your name came up only in the context of the deck plans and cross referencing them with the cruiser's bios list and the Grumbo/Jazz list. No need to be paranoid!

Who's nervous?? I think I'm next to Jazz.

 

[jhemond]

Marsha - boy did you make me nervous when I saw that I had a new PM. I thought "what did I do now...."

New Deck Plan Feature!

You will soon be able to roll your mouse over the various highlighted staterooms to find out which Fool is in which room!

To test this new feature:

1. Go to the Deck Plans

2. Roll your mouse over to Deck 2 and use Room 2098 as a test subject.

3. Once your mouse is over that room, look at the bottom left corner of your Internet Explorer window!

Currently only a few rooms on Deck 2 have this new feature but it will be expanded to cover all of the decks. However, only those Fools who have provided an actual Stateroom number will be identified.

Don't forget, if you would like to send in new information for the Deck Plan or have updated information, Nancy is the point person. She can be reached via PM or at Perdita@*****************

Cool! This will make it so much easier to see who is next each other. Of course I already know who my neighbors are since one of them keeps trying to plan a party in my room, lol.

Pam

Pam, I have not, but it is about 3000 miles from Seattle to New Hampsire, so it will take at least 5 days, I do PM people as soon as I recieve the envelope. Unless you have a guilty conciense about something (JENNY) a pm from me is a good thing!

Oh boy, someone has a lot of spare time on their hands adding all the scrolling code to the deck plan. I can't wait to see the IDs! And as always, those people who do not wish thier name or DIS ID to be on the plan, make sure Nancy knows.

hey KMiles................is there a Linda, Barbie, or Fran at that email? That will cover me and all my blood sisters names!!!!

Sisterhood Rules, BTW. Just in case any of you men forgot.

It's not a guilty conscience. Just that I forgot you said you'd PM when you received your payment.

Just to put it into perspective for Pam....Marsha and I live less than 100 miles from each other (that's right...isn't it? I'm 50-60 miles from Concord, you're less than that right?). I (well, DH actually) mailed the envelope on Tuesday, so it took 2 days to get there.

And you're right....Sisterhood RULES!

I was just over on DisneyCruise.com looking at the May Repo Cruise. I was AMAZED at how many cabins are open! I just put in for 2 adults & no kids and found availability in Cats 4-7-8-9-10-12. Only 4 & 12 were in GTY status. For 7-8-9-10 you could pick from a list of cabins!

Does this surpise anyone else?

Doesn't surprise me. Ours will look like that when people have to actually PAY for the cruise. Disney loves this because their pricing goes up with capacity!

We can only hope this happens to us and then I maybe able to upgrade at port and finally get that balcony.

BTW I am doing the upgrade happy dance for my sister. She is on the last western before the repo and got upgraded two catagories!!!

 

[mickeyfan1]

I do think there will be a lot of cancellations as 90, 75, and 60 days pop up. Depending on when you booked, your final payment date could be different. I was at 60 days, but adding my mother pushed me to 75. I think there are a lot more people wanting on our cruise because a lot of schools don't start till after labor day, the Labor Day weekend gives people 2 days to get caught up befor the work week begins again, and there is always the possibility of a hurricane extending the cruise well into the next week or two (I HOPE!!!!). Upgrades are always possible, if we all clap our hands and say "I Believe", it could happen.

Jenny, we are 11 to 12 miles from Concord, depending on the route. One of these days we will take a ride up your way, I don't think I have been over that way. SO much to see here, isn't there?

 

[winnyis]

Darlene - you are so right.... I have spent about $700 this week on the good deals that everyone keeps posting. I got the SD500 camera, 2 DVD players so the kids cant fight and 7 t-shirts. The only thing left to buy on my list is a new Camcorder and Bob has to do the research on that.

 

[mark & sandra]

Of course I already know who my neighbors are since we're trying to plan a party in my room, lol.

Well count me in on that party. As a matter of fact I'd like to extend an invite to ALL my fellow fools to come to a party in Piglett33's room...Mark

Ok. So we're less than 75 miles apart (that's driving distance - even closer "as the crow flies"). There's not much to do here really. You could go to the Polar Caves (you're not clausterphobic are you?) or Ruggles Mine. There's the Quechee Gorge "over the river". You could go see where the Old Man in the Mountain used to be. Not much else really.

 

[jhemond]

I BELIEVE!! I BELIEVE!! I BELIEVE!!

 

[Grumbo]

Well count me in on that party. As a matter of fact I'd like to extend an invite to ALL my fellow fools to come to a party in Piglett33's room...Mark

I'll be there!!!
You're not wearing your hip waders to this though are you Mark.. I don't think the Sisterhood could take that

Cheers,
Grumbo

Oh sure change my words! Just like a man to misunderstand what a woman said.
