Hey- We were on page 2 again!

Has anyone heard from jmalk? She's on our Halloween Wonder and hasn't posted on that thread or here lately. I hope she's okay! Lurking maybe?

Hi Folks,

WE'RE BAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We spent two wonderful weeks on the sunny island of Fuerteventura. We didn't have any rain - we didn't even see more than two small clouds in the whole time
The temps were in the 80ies, the water was about 70ºF, the club was great, the meals were super, so we had to do two hours of aerobics every day to burn off those nasty extra calories. And guess what: We just hopped on the scale and discovered that we didn't gain an ounce!!!
We had two formal nights and I wore my tux each time - With that wonderful Mickey-bowtie CheesePlease gave me last year (THANKS AGAIN, Dave) I won the hearts of many people
To be honest: On the first night the Golf-Pro and me were the only ones wearing a tux, and on the second one I was the loner - But showing off can be so much fun As I told you last year, that tuxes aren't yery common over here.

Page 4 ?!?!? What did you do while we soaked up the sun (BTW, We are Afro-Germans now - I hope this remark isn't too un-PC) ?
NO, I understand you fully: With your 09/28-Cruise coming up so soon, you will be very busy on that thread - BUT AFTER CRUISEARS THERE AREN'T ANY EXCUSES ACCEPTED
We hope that your cruise will be at least as good as our vacation.

It's 2AM over here, we landed about 90 minutes ago and now it's time for bed.

See you in 374 days

Anja & Eric

PS: I didn't touch any computer during the whole vacation and we didn't watch one second of TV - So I guess, we're not incurable addicted But I read about 2000 pages at the beach - Including the new Tom Clancy-novel "Red Rabbit" - He's still the Boss!!!

 

[papa]

Willkommenes HauptEric und Anja wilde und verrückte Zicklein Sie. Paßte das magische Segel mit Dave und Ellen heute auf. Kathy und ich versuchen, verpackt für die Cruisears Kreuzfahrt zu erhalten und wir werden nach Ihrem Stift suchen. Wir haben auch @GoofNut(Cathy)looking. Das ist ein anderes Paar Augen.

Hope that bablefish translated it correctly. We are all hoping to make it on the Cruisetoberfest II with you. Have our fingers crossed for good weather next weekend and the following week. Kathy and I are getting the unlimited internet package and we will try to answer any questions that you might have concerning the western route. Mike

 

[Viking]

Hi Mike,

we appreciate your German post, but bablefish needs some adjustment
I retranslate it verbatim:
Welcome HeadEric and Anja wild and crazy little goats you. Checked the magic sail with Dave and Ellen today.
Kathy and me try, packed to get for the CruiseEars and will be looking for your pen. We also have @GoofyNut (Cathy) looking. That's another pair of eyes.

So much about computers taking over the job of us mortals!!! But we understood what you were saying, and -again- we really are honoured, that you posted in our native language.

I would really be eternally grateful if you can find that pin!! We went to the Lost & Found at Disneyland Paris twice, but unfortunately without success


Viele Grüße aus Frankfurt

Anja & Eric

OMG - That has to be the funniest post I've read in a long time!!! Glad you "wild and crazy little goats" had a wonderful vacation. And, BTW, what pin did you lose?

Had a wonderful, long conversation today with my new best friend, Dan! It was a great surprise and so nice to hear his voice. They are all well in Ohio and had a great time in DisneyWorld (we won't talk about grandma).

Doesn't ANYone realize what today is? One year ago exactly we boarded the Disney Magic for our first Cruisetoberfest! We will leave for Cruisetoberfest II in about one year and one month.

Hi taswira! I see from her profile that jmalk last posted September 9th. Maybe she is busy with the kids going back to school or maybe she is having computer problems or maybe she is doing overtime to pay for these cruises! Hoping everything is okay with jmalk and her loved ones and that she will be checking in with us soon.

 

[dan and scott]

Ok, someone please post which pin Eric and Anja lost! This is really killing me!

Oh, by the way we are home! Talked to Rosemary today (so nice to hear her voice!)

I will post more later (tomorrow)

Dan

Safe and fun trip to cdnmickeylover and family.

Susan!! So happy to see your post and to hear that you are leaving lurker-mode. Wishing you and John a wonderful cruise in October. (Why are we the only ones not cruising this year!?) Sorry to hear about the surgeries you underwent this past year. You are much too young to have such ailments!! Hope you are now A-okay. And definitely hoping to see you in October 2003! (I need more advice on jewlry shopping!)

Oh, *HeadEric* - I didn't officially say it before, soooo WELCOME BACK to you and Anja!!

HI DAN!!!!

 

[Viking]

Hey Folks,

I really appreciated Mike's efforts to post in German. At least there's one American who tries to fight being monolingual LOL

To stop all you curious guys from wild guessing: I lost my favourite DCL-pin, a large starspangled nightsky in the shape of Mickey's wellknown head and across it the most wonderful cruiseship in the whole wide world. I lost it in Disneyland Paris We searched for it around Cinderella's Castle and went to the Lost&Found twice, but unfortunately to no effect.

 

[papa]

Eric I am sure that you will have at least 10 people looking for it on board this weekend. Haben Sie einen guten Tag. Mike

P.S. Eric I am already bilingual. I speak English and bad English with a southern drawl.

[alikat99]

jen-n-greg - it'll be great to have you on the cruise. DH and I will be sailing with our DD who will have just turned 2.

 

[Tulirose]

Oooh, more cruisers!! Welcome Jen&Greg! Have you had the chance to read through this thread? If so, you should know that to be included in our email listing of 10/11/03 cruisers, you need to email Viking with pertinent info. Looking forward to chatting on this thread with you and the others, especially now that the one year mark is coming up.

Hi alikat! Happy to see you posting again! Taswira - Did you hear from jmalk?

No, I never heard from jmalk and haven't seen her posting recently. She and her two kids and a girlfriend are supposed to be on our Halloween Wonder cruise. Our Wonder thread has 13 pages and I think the last post by her was the end of August on page 8. Since she wasn't posting here either, I was just wondering if she's okay. You said earlier she had posted somewhere on the board on Sept. 9th though, right? Maybe she's just too busy or on another trip, or just has nothing to say!

 

[Viking]

Hi jen-n-greg,

I got your mail, thanks for the quick response.

To everyone: Please send all your changes until FRIDAY, I will do an update this weekend.

I'd like to thank all you 28/09-folks for the search for my pin!!!

 

[Viking]

[Tulirose]

to all!

Jmalk - Are you out there?

No changes in the Tulirose household for the list!
