Cranberry or Pineapple??

Marcie, that sounds so cool. If you can pay the bills without any problem by going then GO!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Selena, sorry I got so excited over Marcies post that I just hit submit. Your rainbow story is so inspirational.

Cristi, thanks. I think we should hold off until Heidi gets back anyway. She might just shoot us if we go without her. LOL

Heidi's email: LOVED Cartagena, it was absolutely wonderful. We took a Spanish History and Fort tour that I thought would be boring but loved it. Took tons of pictures. WE did the tour by boat and saw a lot of things. The city is beuatiful and people are very friendly. WE would love to come back sometime. Sea Day tomorrow.

Heard from Heidi today. Sea day, hot massage, movie and a nap. Nice, huh?

I need pixie dust that Gustav stays away from the Texas coast.

I found out some information about Vegas. The radio station that's putting on the music festival is officially announcing on Tues Sept 2nd. So, I will make my decision after that. I searched all over the net and checked everywhere for the few days before and after and found the best price is leave Fri night and come back on tues morning. It would be $350 cheaper then leaving Thurs night and coming back sunday. So, we shall see. I am going to let Aerial pick one show for her birthday and take her to Margaritaville for lunch, she's always wanted to go there.

Marcie, I have been thinking about you and that storm. I have been keeping my eye on it because of Heidi. Pixie dust! Wow, what a mom. Nice birthday that is for sure!!

Marice I say go for it!!! If you can afford it you should do it.

You will have to tell me how Aerial likes Vegas. We have thought about taking the kids to visit my brother.

I hope it does not hit you guys but I also hope it does not hit Florida. Jeff might have to go back to Florida. They are waiting now to see how many claims they are going to have and how many people they will need. Once that is established Jeff is on the list to go but we are unsure where he is on that list. I do not mind him going at all. It is excellent money and believe me we can use it. I just want them to make the decision sooner rather than later. The longer they wait to send him the more chances it will cause issues with our Pride cruise. We leave in 10 weeks. CAT duty is automatically 3 weeks and sometimes it is a mandatory 6-12 weeks.

It really sounds like Heidi is having a wonderful time. I am glad they are having a blast. Did they do a couples massage? We did a couples massage the last time we were on Disney.

I have been checking out a 3 day Disney next fall. lol It fits perfectly into my fall break. lol However, I have the Dream booked for early 2010 and I might have to work those days during my fall break.

Selena, here's hoping that Jeff goes and gets back in time for the trip. Yes, Heidi and Chris had the couples massage. It was a gift from a DISer friend of mine. We consider each other as sisters. Heidi has cruised with them several times and they came out for her wedding. LOVE THE DIS!!

Marcie, I need advic e. I figure you could help me. What cruise lines go out of Galveston? We might cruise with some friends that live in TX.

I would go with Royal Caribean or Carnival. Next summer Carnival conquest is adding key west. That's the one we were supposed to go on but my Aunt changed it to Sept. So, not sure if I am going.

Thanks Marcie!

Marcie I see you mentioned Key West. I was looking at my Spring Break Cruise and they changed the itinerary. I am so happy. Before it was Freeport and Nassau now it is Key West and Nassau. Love Key West!!!

I have not been on a Voyager Class Ship (RCI) but have been on the Freedom Class and the Sovereign Class.

Thanks Selena, I am so overwhelmed. You talk about "class ship". What does that mean??? Thanks so much for the info. I am going on a two week camping vacation today and plan to take the laptop. This will give me plenty of time to do some research. THANK YOU!!!!!!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

I'm out of here for vacation. We are taking the laptop so I should be able to check in.
