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

[Dizzyworld]

Andy....that was pretty funny about the water. Last week, when I took my van in to the shop for an emergency visit, I was so hot beacuse I had been driving without the AC. (My battery was dying.) I looked down at the side of my shorts and saw this big wet spot and kept trying to figure out why my thigh was leaking. I took a closer look and it was slober from their big dog. Had my mind going for a minute though.

Stay cool everyone.

If there is time to get in on the post contest....I'd say Aug 3 @ 10:45 PM

Am I the only one has not yet received their docs? I got my package for our disney trip after the cruise, but no cruise docs yet.

i don't have docs yet. Hopefully the TA will send them soon! I am anxiously waiting.

 

[RobinMarie]

We got our cruise docs yesterday!!!

It was right on target with what they told me at DCL so if anyone does'nt have theirs yet you can call DCL and find out when they were mailed out and they will also give you a tracking number for UPS so you can see what date they will be delivered.

Just curious about the Tea with Wendy---read some not so favorable reviews a while back and had'nt planned for DD to do this but your cute pics of the girls made it seem like they had a fun time. Our DD is not into dolls but has a cat from Build A Bear that she named princess. She has the Tinkerbell outfit, Jasmine and Sleeping Bueaty outfits for it and wants to bring them and dress them up when she gets her pics taken with the character. She does'nt know that her grandmother and I got Cindrella and Snow White outfits and these will be showing up magically in our room on Princess with a Happy Birthday sign above----I know she will be excited because she will now have all the princess outfits except Belle.

I noticed in your pics of the girls that one had a Build a Bear dog?? Didn't even think of this for our DD to go to and dress her cat up and take to tea---I told her about the tea and she was excited and wants to take her cat---Anyone else's DD's doing this and does anyone know when the tea is???

Well, off to more packing and planning--Have a Great day everyone!!

I would agree with people that Tea with Wendy isn't anything worth attending if you have other big plans. Our girls had such a lovely time because they enjoyed each others company. It would be a wonderful time for the girls to get to know each other.

I could not find Tea with Wendy on the navigators. Am I losing my mind, when is it for our sailing?

I would agree that you do not need tickets for the event, there is usually plenty of seating. It's a very fast event, but a nice moment. Dolls and stuffed animals are optional, we happened to plan it that way!

Andy,

Their are easier ways to cool off.

 

[famof8]

JOYCE! YOU DID IT! You pronounced my daughters name.. it is Kweeva! Or I normally say Queeva.. but well done you!

Don't know the first name but leave it with me.. I'll find it! Kayla... Wouldn't be Keera? That is phonetic spelling.. proper spelling is Ciara.

I just remembered the other name...Siobhan (Shevon, phonetically). I love Irish names! They are so beautiful. I wish there were more Irish in me

[Colestat]

I do not have a TA, so the docs should be mailed directly to me. Hopefully today!

ROBIN

I just got off the phone with Shirley and she is going to make a birthday basket for Sandy with the Bitty Baby. I just have to send it down to her (insured!).

I'll tell Sandy she can bring one LITTLE animal for a sleeping buddy. As long as she has something she will be happy.

Now I am excited! Can't wait to see what Shirley comes up with.

I just won a pirate costume for my older DS on ebay. Younger DS has one from halloween he is going to wear. DH and I will be wearing caribbean shirts.

Andy - I love the POC shirt you will be wearing.

I just read your post about the Build A Bear outfits. My DD9 also loves Build A Bear so I went on their site to see if I could get more Disney outfits. They had all the ones you had plus The Little Mermaid and Mulan. Then I checked on Ebay and a person actually had a Pirates of the Caribbean outfit! I thought it would be so cute for pirate night. Just letting you know that there are some more Disney outfits out there.

[Andrew DEREK UK]

Andrew, do you fly non-stop from London to Orlando?

If I remember correctly, I think Moira said they have to change flights in Philadelphia, is that correct Moira?

Corr lots of posts since you asked its non stop on Virgin atlantic

Darlene

I did tell Victoria last night that Sandy would be receiving a bitty baby. She wants to know what color hair Sandy's will have (???) Immediately Victoria tapped her memory to see if her doll, Marisol, had ever been on vacation before. She would like to bring Lisa, her blonde bitty baby, so she and Sandy can match.

Ed, I hope Caitlin's eye is improving!

 

[Verandah Man]

Oh ANDY!!

I'm sure with this heat you dried in no time. Come on, admit it, it felt good did'nt it?

Darlene

It sure did, because the water was still cold, LOL!!!

 

[ElliotFan]

I was looking thru the Navigators and I noticed that there are a some adult singles meets, which surprised me. I am truly a chicken when it comes to this stuff but would love to go and check it out. Anyone else want to go also? I'll go but afraid to go by myself.

Bev

Hey Bev, I'll go with you! I did the Singles Lunches on that last cruise and they were great. There was even one where it was only me and two young, good-looking male CMs in their 20's. (It would have been 'cradle-robbing' on my part, but I still enjoyed the attention and my fantasies. )

Group Question Please:

Me and my sisters were speaking all things cruise yesterday and we got talking about Pirate night and 60's night and 70's night (do they still do these). Anyway, do you guys dress up for any or possibly all of these things. Please tell us which ones do and what your wear. All your input would be appreciated! Thanks!


Mary Rose

Hey Mare - I think that I'm the only one in the group that dressed up for the 60's Party, as you can see from the picture below. (I felt pretty alone!) I'm willing to dress-up again this time, If I'm not going to be the only one!

[PoohJen]

Hi PoohJen!
Yes! You should do the repo, August 2007. Be there!
Hot hot hot here in Hampton Roads!

Hello to all you lucky 8/19 DD cruisers, just adding to your post count. Feel free to add to our 11/11 DD thread .

Hi Hannomom!!!! Shoot, I almost missed your post amongst all our hullabaloo!! In case no one on this meets thread mentioned it to you, we sail in 18 Days!!!! WooHoo!!!

(man, you are gonna lay it on so thick w/ me when my cruise is over and yours is just on the horizon... )

 

[ElliotFan]

P.S. I will try and order a few extras, in case somebody doesn't see the thread in time to let me know. I know Dori, for example, doesn't always have a chance to get on here often.

Terry -
Are they really 'lime' green or just green? I have to ask, because if they are just green, I still have my green lei from the last cruise. It's hung on the inside doorknob of my bedroom. (Add one to your list for Devin, anyway. If they are really 'lime' and another for me too.)

Thanks!

Dori

88 for lime green, so far (Ok, looks like the lime green leis have won the decision. LOL)



$1 each. Please send checks ASAP so I can put the money into my checking account and use my Visa/debit card to pay for them when I order them. For those who don't already have my address, please send me an email or a PM. Thanks!


REMINDER!!! I'll only be taking orders until Wednesday night (August 2nd) because I need to order these in time for them to arrive before the cruise


This is what they look like:
