Cruise 10/11/2003 Part 2

[taswira]

Yes - THANK YOU Viking and Colleen for the lists. Great job!

As some are stating whether they will be at the CC reception, count me in also! That will be my 8th CC reception - 9th DCL cruise.

I was among the first to receive my docs as well. But those who booked through a TA shouldn't start <I>worrying</I> unless it gets down to a couple of weeks out and you still don't have them. On <I>rare</I> occasions, it can take that long.

Talk about keeping me in suspense.........................

My father just called. He made all the reservations for the cruise portion. Disney had sent our confirmation to our old address in their files where we no longer live (never rec'd here) so my dad told them to send all documents, even for our family, to his address.

Anyway, he said a big box arrived at his house today from DCL with my husband's name on it. He says it feels like a hunk of lead. I told him to open it, open it, it's probably our tickets! He's making me wait cuz he's expecting a phone call and will open it afterwards.

Anyone think it's our tickets?! If so, I'll be out there this weekend to get them!!

Arlene,

I picked up a Iron-on transfer kit for Inkjet Printers in the Stationary aisle at Walmart this afternoon. The brand was Avery and they had it with 6 letter sized sheets or with 12 letter sized sheets. It looks very easy. Now if I can just find the yellow shirts, that may be much more difficult.

If any one has any sources for yellow t-shirts or plain white and plain yellow golf shirts, we would appreciate the info.

Thanks,
Chris

Lisa...IT GOT TO BE THE TICKETS!!!! You call your Dad RIGHT NOW and tell him to open the BOX!!!!!LOL!
2 years ago DCL sent our tickets to my old address but, by chance my BIL happen to be there and signed for them. Then I had to wait for my sis to mail them to me by snail mail

I stayed home with DD today (she was not feeling well this morning) and I have been watching for the UPS guy, but no luck yet.

Arlene...you can get the transfer paper at Walmart or any craft store.I think it is pretty easy to do, but I will let you know for sure tomorrow. I bought the t-shirts today and they are being washed now. REMEMBER to wash/dry them BEFORE you do the transfer.

We also plan on attending the CC party and the DVC party.

Eric and Colleen, thanks for the lists. Final count is 40 families, 91 adults and 33 children. 124 total!

The UPS man & the FED EX man just drove past my house.......they didn't stop. I went outside hoping they had missed me but they didn't come back!!

We will be at the CC party. Had to go get some new springs and pads for my shoes today. Cathy tell Art to go ahead and wear his to break them in. Mike

Still no docs here, but I booked through DVC, so I don't know how much longer that takes.

I have the transfer paper for our shirts, I just haven't gotten the shirts yet.

No CC party for us, but we'll be at the DVC one.

Can't wait for this cruise. Work is getting crazy, and I just need a break. Plus, my brother's wedding is 2 weeks before the cruise, so I'm getting geared up for that, since we're heading to my hometown of Chicago. We're going to be doing a ton of traveling in the next month or so. But, it's all fun!!!

 

[dan and scott]

OK I received the new Cruise list, however I can not open it. It says that Outlook Express removed them because they were unsafe.

Help

Leaving tomorrow for the Magic-anyone need anything?

We are also planning on going to the CC party, and the DVC party if twin sister invites us, hint, hint.
CWD Thanks for the info on Palos. I feel better knowing we will only take up 1/2 the place. LOL
I ordered T-shirt from this place. Someone posted it a long time ago and I put it in my folder. Anyway I e-mailed my order last week, and I got 3 of the 4 shirts I ordered already. The small one for my son only comes in gold, and it is on back order. But it should still be here before the cruise. The t-shirts for the rest of us are perfect. A very nice yellow color, and I am NOT a yellow kind of person. LOL. Anyway, check it out.

Go to Clothing, then Weekend wear. We got the Beefy T-****s.

Well I'm going back to school. I start on Sept. 23rd. It's just one class, once a week. And I already checked, it's ok that I miss while on the cruise. It's an IV course, and the best thing is.....my boss is paying for it. Guess I'll have some reading material for the trip to the Cape. But the book stays in the car while we cruise.
Sooner rather than later, Ave'

I'm still in shock that they came.. When the doorbell rang while I was making dinner hubby and I looked ta each other like "who the heck?"

Hubby got the package and won't tell me what it was, he was acting like a kid who didn't want his sibling to steal the really cool toy from him..

Then we did the happy happy joy joy dance

Thats cause I answered the door. So I should get all the joy

Just posting a quick hi! Happy trip to Dan and Scott. Kick your computer before you go and maybe it will behave for you.

Belated Happy Anniversary to Mike and Kathy.

Too much going on. I can't believe cruise is so close. I will be the one three days before leaving running around like an idiot trying to do shirts, find our snorkel gear, etc.

No docs. CC party for us. No DVC party.

Goofynut - I will email videoman about nametags.

I've been lurking and not posting. Busy with hockey stuff. Some one needs to remind me why I volunteered for this again. Plus what I thought was posion ivy ended up being Shingles on my back and belly. It is a mild case, but not a pretty sight. Plus they do hurt, but that is getting better. Now down to only 2 Advil every 6 hours and Tylenol pm at night to sleep. Plus life keeps moving on so I just plug along. Norm is going on Friday to get a stent put in his Left leg. January he had the Right leg done and that one is great, well now he has the same problem with the left. So he should be ready to run around deck 4. Gosh, it sounds like we are really old folks and ready for the nursing home and not a cruise. LOL

Belated Happy Anniversary to Kathy and Mike.

No documents for us, but being booked through DVC I won't expect them for awhile.

I saw on another thread the offer that they are giving for booking the new Eastern iternary for 2004. I think it was $400 on board credit and 10% off. Will have to check that out. I think I can book on board and then transfer to DVC and still keep the credit.

I am starting to stock up on reading material for the cruise. Getting my James Patterson and Jonathan Kellerman books at the 2nd hand book store.

Ave--Good luck with your classes.

Mary--- Norm was so glad that Terry Labonte won at Darlington. That is his favorite driver, he has a Terry Labonte bird house which this year had the cutest little song bird nest in. Glad you enjoyed the race.

Eric and Colleeen--- Thanks for all the lists.

So Art has those bouncing shoes to. Will we look for you 3 to be bouncing around the Magic like Tigger.

Dave (Cheeseplease)--- How did the college move go?


Well, most get back to finishing my hockey business. Mike, I guess I will be down at the internet cafe daily to check all my hockey email while we cruise.

Later,
Nancy

Rosemary--- I will be right there with you, running around doing things at the last minute. Last year, the morning we were leaving I was just starting to pack. I couldn't make any decisions so I packed everything. We could have gone on a trip around the world and not worn the same thing twice.

I promised Norm that I would do better this trip. Yea right.
