Calling All 8/19/06 Special Western Cruisers! AKA "The Cruisin' Castaways" Part 2

[Buddy Bear]

How do you find out what dining rotation you are on?

Actually you don't find out until you check in at the terminal. It will be printed on your KTTW card.

Awww man that's the date of the Ship of Fools meet!

 

[PoohJen]

Welcome Lori!

I think I'm going to try the Margarita and Tequila Tasting.
Anyone else?

I'm very tempted!!!

Hey you Jerseyites, I was in your fine state this weekend for a wedding in the Linden/Westfield area. Very nice, had a great time, but don't get me started on the traffic Took me FOREVER to get to Jersey from the Island on Sat and back on Sunday and then again to LaGuardia - spent more of my weekend going in circles and sitting in traffic than anything fun or relaxing!!! Hmmm, I think I deserve a day off from my hard weekend! So THAT's why I left New York!

Terry


would love to join you folks at the dinner but its a little far for us to travel on the 4th of july weekend.

Stange, I checked it out on mapquest and its only 8 more miles that from here to Mystic. Both about 1h 45m to 2hr travel time depending on traffic.
Have a great time

Terry - just DD Lindsay and me will be at the NJ DIS meet. I wouldn't miss it. When it gets closer, I'll need instructions.

It'll be great to see everyone again and hopefully meet new people. We had a great time in October 04 when we met everyone for the first time. This truly has become my DIS family.

Darlene - Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and family.

Doreen - Tuesday will be worst than Wednesday when you're sleeping through it. Hope all works out well in the "end". Here's some PD

Bev

 

[zack&alexmom]

Congrats to everyone who got what they wanted and sorry to those who didn't.

My sister just had me go to a really sad website - just put in parentswish.com and watch it play. Bring some kleenex.

I don't know about the 2nd. I think we might be camping.

 

[Reenieny18]

One thing that will help WEDNESDAY is that we are going to get new mattresses in the AM.. I think I will have to spend the day in bed and give them a trial run...

MOIRA where did you go anyway.. She is such a nice person.. I got my first over seas package today.. She sent me a tshirt and a back pack from IRELAND with the name MURPHY'S on it.. All I did was send her ther DVD and book from DCL.. I cant wait to meet her and everyone else on this cruise...

DOREEN

 

[Steve's Wife]

I'm afraid New Jersey would be quite a hike for us -- especially since we have a 4th of July BBQ for about 65 of our friends and relatives. Eek!
If there's anything happening in the midwest, though...

Doreen: We got a new mattress about a year ago and we LOVE it! It's a Sealy Posturpedic Ultra Plush Pillowtop mattress. Enjoy your new mattress, there's nothing like a good night's sleep!!


Lori: You're in Illinois? No excuse for not coming to the meet!! hehehe just kidding! I hope you have a good time at your BBQ that weekend

 

[RobinMarie]

JOANNA>.

when is this and where???

DOREEN

I read the navigators on Barb's site and it lists two Margarita and Tequila tastes for her cruise. I'm thinking of a Thursday taste while on board!

Ed, you are more than welcome to join the Bonkers in Yonkers Fools event, it's a little closer for you.

 

[Reenieny18]

Good morning everyone.. nice day here so far.. (thanks Tina).. Kids are all leaving soon,... MArty is gone.. AWW I will have the day alone.. And my new LUSH PILLOWTOP mattress will be here in the AM YIPPIE!!!!

I would like to go to the margarita tasting.. count me in...

Have a gret day every one..

DOREEN

 

[Mjasp]

Terry...If we do a weekend thing in NJ we will be there, if not it may take some convincing for DH to go to the diner and back. But hey , you never know.

Doreen...Good luck with your tests AND I thought you were in charge of the taste testing on the ship LOL

Mattresses...I am in the market for one. Does anyone have the sleep number mattress?

Darlene...Sorry to hear about your mother in law, our deepest sympathy to you, Stan and Sandy.

 

[Verandah Man]

Have a Happy and Safe 06/06/06 Everyone!!!

 

[Steve's Wife]

We flew to Cleveland last week to watch the Sox play, get Steve a hot dog with brown mustard (anyone ever see "A Hotdog Show"), and try out a sleep number bed at the Radisson. It was really comfortable, but a little weird -- is a 35 more comforable than a 40 or a 70 better than a 65? It's kind of like going to the optometrist: are the letters clearer like this or if I flip the lens like that? We've decided to get one, but I'd suggest trying one out overnight.
It's a beautiful morning here, so I'm going to slip on my walking shoes and enjoy it. The fact that I have to weigh in tonight at TOPS has nothing to do with it...
