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

[Brooklyn]

Yea!!

Still haven't found their way to California though

We are in CA and we got ours on Saturday. You should get yours on Monday. We got our three packets. Still laughing that DD 8 got her own packet!

The packet was for the Transatlantic but I loved how it showed my vacation dates of April 10 - May 5.

I have checked the DCL website, the initial pages of this thread and Aunt Lynne's website but do not find the list of which night is which theme. Anyone remember where I can find it? Is it a sure thing or based on 2007 TA cruise?

Nor Missouri. Maybe tomorrow...

To the person who posted about the dresses at Old Navy-thanks a lot!!! I just spent a boatload there this afternoon on clothes for my DGD. I don't think she'll need any more summer clothes except for maybe some shorts. They have some good deals.

Mine were delivered via USPS not Fed Ex. I thought the Fed Ex was only to those who were not in the US.

Not sure ... mine have always been delivered Fed Ex (here in PA).

AuntLynne
I put my name and stateroom on the spreadsheet. If you are doing the nametags for the lanyards could I have them with Donalds for Karen and Lorrie. Thanks....

Come meet us in the terminal or at the 3:00 Meet & Greet on April 10 in the Promenade Lounge and pick-up your lanyard/name tags. Glad to have you aboard with us.

Website - EB Transatlantic page (on the top row of page listings) under the grid of dates/ports. The info was obtained by a fellow cruiser from the Concierge for this specific cruise.

Ok so I promise this is the last Sleeping Beauty update (now that the show is over) hehe

Here is a link to a short clip of Madison in the show....

Ok, now time for VACATION PLANNING!!!

 

[PrincessMonkey]

Called DCL-- This is a PARTIAL list of the movies. The DCL rep said that the list will be much longer as they continue to add more films.

The Proposal
UP in 3-D
The Surrogate
Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 in 3D
Christmas Carol
Old Dog
The Princess and the Frog
When in Rome
Alice in Wonderland ("mostly likely in 3D"- quote from rep)

I really hope they add The Last Song to the list! Fingers crossed!

We saw the trailer (Nicholas Sparks' screenplay), and with the knowledge that Miley Cyrus and that young man are currently dating, it seems completely charming! The film releases March 31st... so it is possible.
I am always up for watching romantic movies. *grin*

 

[obobber]

So.... should I be announced as "THE COUGAR QUEEN"?

Don't think I will though.


Question for other solo traveler's - how do you prefer to be announced? It's not like they can call you the "(name) family" - though they did that my first cruise.

Kristi

Her Royal Highness, Kristi, Queen of the Cougars!

I'm supposing they ask you how you'd like to be announced. If so, I'd like "Bobber". Do they announce everyone, or just returning parties? From your post it looks like they do it for everyone.

 

[obobber]

No, I'll be at the port by the time you take off. USAIR 1633 which leaves Philly at 6:40am. Another night's sleep lost between excitement at going and leaving for the airport at 4am. Happy to be getting to the port early though.

Sorry you are not on the flight, looking forward to meeting you. I've enjoyed the story of how you got your name. Are you on the 10:45am return flight, USAIR 743?

Yes, 743 is my return flight. I thought it was 10am, but USAir shows it at 10:35. It appears to be the last flight out for the day. I'll just have to trust Disney to get me there on time.

 

[joius24]

... so that would make Terry, QUEEN of the PREY?

You know Steve....if you mysteriously fall off the ship I will know who did it

Do they announce everyone, or just returning parties?

They announce everyone.

Knitting / Crochet group following Book Exchange (10AM), Promenade Lounge

For those of us wanting to re-learn how to crochet, i was wondering what size needle to bring. I'll be wanting to crochet some baby blankies.

Thanks Dee.

 

[grlzmom]

Mine were delivered via USPS not Fed Ex.

Ours came USPS too

 

[DisneyHeather]

Ours came USPS too

The wait is killing me!! I'm even skipping the gym today because there is no way I'll make it through the day without checking my mail at lunch

I am not a crochet person sorry. I can help with knitting but I'm lost w/crochet. Is anyone here willing to step up as a crochet instructor? Otherwise, my advice would be to find a pattern and use their recommended sizes...I have a Knit / Crochet for Dummies book (bought it because I'd like to crochet one day) that I can bring with me if you want.
