YAHOO!!!!!
I CAN"T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

The more I read here on the boards the more excited I get. If that is possible

 

[aa4mom]

Just tried to add the countdown clock and checking to see if it worked.

 

[lisak1]

today is the first day in about a week we've had sunshine, but still kind of cool... we actually had hail a couple of days ago, and trace snow fall yesterday. maybe it just seems worse because i'm waiting for vacation, but really! it seems like the winter in this state just will not go away this year!!

it's ridiculous!



waiting for that double digit dance!

We had a brief period of sun yesterday here, but very, very, windy, today clouds and still very breezy. I'm starting to forget what the warm weather is truly like.

Howdy Neighbor,

We are just across the river from Philadelphia. We are about 10 minutes south of the Walt Whitman Bridge.

Welcome Aboard to our group!!!

Could you give me the first names of those in your traveling group. If you like you can send an e-mail to apwalters55@comcast.net

Will you and your family be coming down early. We have about 7 families so far that will be staying at the Radisson the night before the cruise. We will be getting together around the Radisson pool for a mini DISmeet. If you will be in the area stop by and say hello to your fellow cruisers.

I see you have a son celebrating a birthday on our cruise.

What dining time do you have early or late?

I have a list on this thread, and I'm trying to keep all the information as current as possible.

We are also planning a DISmeet on the ship Saturday afternoon for those who can't make it Friday night. We have it scheduled for after the life jacket drill on deck 9 behind Topsiders.

Hope to see you either Friday night or Saturday afternoon!!!

Andy

WE CAN'T WAIT!!!

 

[Verandah Man]

I just finished reading the inside meters this morning when it started raining. The curb meters can wait until Monday morning.

As I was walking around a tune popped into my head, I starting putting words to the tune, I call it, the "Double Digit Dance" song.

I'm doin' the Double Digit Dance, the Double Digit Dance, with under 100 days to go, I hope the time does not go slow.

You can do the Double Digit Dance, the Double Digit Dance, come on and join along, and sing this happy song.

We're doin' the Double Digit Dance, the Double Digit Dance, we don't know how to stop, we feel like we're at the hop.

It's the Double Digit Dance, the Double Digit Dance, the time will soon be short, we'll be saying bye-bye at the port.

It's time to end this song, I must now move along, I will see you on the ship, make sure you have a nice trip.

Enjoy the Double Digit Dance, the Double Digit Dance!!!

Andy
