Bound for Barcelona - April 10, 2010 EB TA - Part 4

[mishoe01]

Yes, those of us doing the B2B HAVE to get off the ship, go get a JapaDog, and then reboard with the first Alaska crowd! That way I can have ANOTHER one after the Alaska. Whadda ya say, Monica?

I'm game

Woody, will you lead us there?

.
Monica, you CAN do laundry and DIS at the same time, you know.

.

Just threw the 1st load of in...need to go gather the tax stuff now

THAT is the show I saw on stage in London, 31 years ago! I love that my return trip includes another Andrew Lloyd Weber show!

.

I've seen the stage show too....the movie ended up being well done - I do remember all the uproar that Argentina got in b/c of Madonna playing Eva.

 

[mishoe01]

Hi Monica!

We loved visiting Argentina, the food, the people, and visiting some Evita sites: La Casa Rosada and Eva Peron's tomb at La Recoleta Cemetery.

Woody

It is an amazing country.

Looking forward to seeing you & Mrs Woody again -- are you bringing more pics this time for us to look at?

 

[ibouncetoo]

Oh, Mon....the drink station does have lemonade I'm told.

OK...off to color my hair and throw in a load of wash. Then out to lunch, office supply store, Walgreens, a nap, then play in TurboTax.

You men have it easy- a few shirts, pants,toothpaste etc and UNDERWEAR and you have it made.

25 days is a lot to pack for. I might look into that rolling duffle bag.

Read that the pool at Country Inn and Suites closes at dusk- I was wondering if there is enough interest I could go over there and see if there is a room or another area that we could meet in. Let me know if you want me to do that or is the pool area good enough.

Wow! We are very excited to have found this forum!! My husband and I booked this cruise well over a year ago for our family. We are so excited that we don't have so long to wait anymore! Really fun to see everyone here so excited about the trip. And interesting too to see where everyone comes from.

Great to see we have some more europeans joining us. When I told my DD Amelie (2) that there was another Amelie joining us, she looked a little confused. Finally she said 'I'm Amelie, other little girl -Not Amelie'. I told her that 'Not Amelie' was older and had more right to be called that than her. She looked at me and said OK I'm 'Not Amelie' then. Oh the joy of simple thought!!

I love that! What a

Off for food and shopping now!

Woody....a while ago you mentioned some friends w/ a child/children who could use some pixie dust FE gift magic....I cannot not find that post...what is the age/name of the kid(s). I also think you said to drop the stuff off at your room?
can you help me remember ...that was millions of post ago
thanks

 

[MikeAndNick]

Call me silly (or Mom works too) but underware MIGHT help. We can start another formal night discussion if you please but I believe "going commando" is worse than going hoseless.

My son is 13, I do not think he changes them.. so the ones he is wearing is fine.

 

[MikeAndNick]

Hmmmmm.....Possibly....

Toothpaste, PJ's, underwear, deodorant, swimsuits, flip flops/water shoes, sunscreen, sunglasses, jacket or sweatshirt. And allocate a lot of time for laundry!

.

Toothpaste Ok I will need
PJ's we are boys... we do not own PJ's
underwear OK I will need them and I will take for my son, not sure if he will change his
deodorant Definite
swimsuits I do to swim but my son will need one
flip flops/water shoes I have tried these and my son just looses them
sunscreen why?
sunglasses They stay on my head
jacket or sweatshirt why? is it going to snow?
And allocate a lot of time for laundry! Just turn the shirts inside out

 

[bound2travel]

I can't remember who asked me what the prices were for the Rosa Regala I found but here they are:

750 ml - $20
375 ml - $14
187 ml - $6

But my favorite wine was NO WHERE to be seen. They are waiting for a delivery -

We'll probably run into each other. My DS is 14 and there doesn't seem to be an overabundance of teen boys in that age group joining us.

Two weeks from today I will probably be right where I am now. Finishing up work. I swear my people are trying to drive me to drinking before I go on this cruise!! After that going to a friends house who so sweetly agreed to drive us to the port the next day.

So, they're driving you to WHERE you can drink?

Hey Lauren.....
How about "the Cougariest Cougar"?!

Terry, who will keep keep the cougars scorecards with you now? I think you will need help!

Well, I think I got deleted from the "Watching the cougars" list, but I'm still available, Terry.

Welcome - and also to all the others that have just popped up! One day, and I had 15 pages to scan. Thread 5 coming up!

And didn't see if anyone volunteered for the "tastings" reminders, if it's needed, I'll gladly do it, but I'd need a list. Could a page be added to the Spreadsheets? At the very least, I could try to stake out a "DIS" territory.

And, two weeks from right now we'll be leaving land (Castaway Cay) for 6 days w3ith all the friends we haven't met yet.

We are traveling with dear friends and their 8-year-old son. The husband and wife both work very long hours, and don't have much time for anything else.

Someone had posted that with the baggage restrictions, he won't be taking all his FE gifts home, and asked if it was alright to "re-gift."

I replied our friends' son would be delighted to receive a few items.

You can leave things at our cabin, which will be listed in the Mini-Navigator. We'll have a FE.

Thank you for your thoughtfulness!

......one more teen boy (DS 14) .... I can get him to change his clothes and I can get him in the shower...but it is hours till I can get him out!....

I am soooo glad we have a split bathroom this time
