That works both ways, papa!

I-O-U one hug on <I>Cruisetoberfest II</I>.

 

[papa]

Congratulations guys. They won't notice due to the wild nature of this bunch of cruisers.

Hope that you get to feeling better soon and try to keep Scott in line. After all he is the rowdy one in the bunch Tell Fantasia we said hello and hope that she is still enjoying riding in the van. Mike

Didn't anyone read the thread that mentioned how they are now back to stickers for the soda program, with the mug as optional? Apparently, even if you have a mug, they now put a sticker on your KTTW card and you have to show it for any refills.

I figured that we better reply to this thread before it gets to be 100 pages long and no one notices me!! Add us to the list of this cruise--we can't wait (this is our 3rd Disney Cruise)--We live in Northeastern Pennsylvania (near the Poconos) and it has been freezing here (our temp this morning was 3 degrees F and it has been the winter from HE**!! Can't wait for warm weather. I am a secretary at a hospital; my DH works for a glass manufacturer and my daughter is a 7th grader! If you need any more information, just e-mail me and let me know!!

 

[papa]

Hi Sarah's Mom. If you would like you can edit your post and remove all the info such as age and such and just email it to Viking the list keeper at LIST and he will add you to the list that he emails to everone on it. He sends the list out in two formats, microsoft word and pdf which is adobe that most internet sites use. Again welcome. Mike

I'm here - just barely. My head is so "heavy", sore throat and a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad cough. GOD I WISH IT WAS SPRING, ALREADY!

I see we have another NorthEast PA family .. Welcome.

Hope everyone got their Radisson reservations made and were happy with the rate.

RE - HUGS ... You may not have met a more "huggy bunch" than this. But that's a good thing.

Hope everyone is "on the bend".

My DSIL in going on a Carnival Cruise this Saturday ... wonder if she'll meet with more severe boarding procedures, since we are under a terror watch.

Which reminds me ... maybe we should make sure we have all our documents ready and up to par for boarding. I already started the "Cruise Box" with some travel stuff and new sandals for the BEACH. No offense, Mary, but really don't want to see you in such a histerical state as on DIS Cruisears. I felt so bad for you.

Well gotta save some strength for work ... JEZ Did I say that! This coughing has me drained.

May lurk later............

Cathy with @ C

Wow, you guys have been busy this afternoon!!

To all the sick people, add me and DD to the list. Emily started out with a runny nose yesterday and now we both have it. Lucky Chris, he's been working late every night this week, so he hasn't been here to catch it from me and Emily.

We're supposed to go out to dinner tonight to celebrate Valentine's Day. We figured if we go out tonight, we may miss some of the crowds. I'm sure everyone will be going out either tomorrow or Saturday night, so hopefully it won't be too bad tonight.

BTW, we're heading to WDW on Saturday, anyone need anything (besides warm weather). We're going to break down and get Emily's first haircut done at MK. Then, we're heading to MGM for my mom's birthday.

Thanks for reminding me Goofynut, I need to make my Radisson reservations.

Welcome to Sarah's mom. You've joined a great group. They are a bit nutty, but I guess we all are!!

Eric you are posting so I take it that your dental procedure went well. A good serving of currywerst and pom frets note sure about the spelling on those two items will help you. Maybe even some apple strudel with vanilla sauce may ease your pain.

Close enough, Mike: It's Currywurst and Pommes Frites (Which is French, BTW). But all this and the Apfelstrudel would adversely affect my halfmarathon preparation . I'm down to 191 lbs now and intend to get rid of another 6 lbs until 03/09/03. I now weigh about 27 lbs than in January 02, but also gained some muscle, so the fat loss is even higher than the aforementioned 27 lbs. And to be honest: My dental handicap facilitates weight loss for the moment Good can be found in bad things too Next tuesday I will get some temporary dental bridgework implanted, which should be good for about 3 to 6 months and then there will be a final solution. And after the appointment with the dentist we have another one with our TA to book the air for our vacation, rent the car and buy our WDW, USF, IoA and SW tickets. And we will probably also book our hotel in the Downtown Disney area.
Thanks for providing Sarah'sMom with the link, she already mailed her info and I will do another update this weekend.

Welcome to Sarah'sMom and her family!!!

To everybody:
As mentioned before, I'll do an update this weekend. Probably Saturday afternoon (CET) after the chat. I had to jump in for a First Aid Training on Saturday for a sick colleague. I'll train a bunch of Kindergarten Teachers on Saturday form 9am til 3pm(CET), but I should be able to make it on time for the chat. Ooooh, we crazy volunteers

 

[videoman]

We will be joining this wonderful crew on our 1st Disney Cruise!!!!! Will be traveling with my Wife 9 year old and 5 year daughters.. Along with another family of 4 (10 year old & 6 year old)
Can't wait to meet and enjoy our first cruise with such delightful people

 

[Sarah'sMomfrom PA]

I know that this has nothing to do with the cruise but saw where alot of you guys watch Joe Millionaire (I admit that I watch that show, the Bachelorette and tonight is Survivor Amazon--I know, I must really get a life besides Disney and reality shows!!) anyway, the rumor that was announced on our local radio station is that this was all a set up and the 20 girls vying for Joe Millionaire (who really does need to get a new wardrobe!!) are actually 20 actress' from Hollywood sent their by their agents and they are just playing along!! If this is true, what a scam!! Does anyone admit to watching the Bachelorette--I so hope that Ryan wins out over Charlie but I think he will get his heart broken!! Oh enough!!

Glad to see that there will be so many kids my daughter's age (she will be 13 next week) she has made so many friends that she still stays in touch with from the cruises.

It is going to be 3 degrees F tonight so please all of you southern posters, send some warm air our way--I am sick of winter!!

Wecome to Videoman -- It's our first cruise as well although I'd love to go beforehand just for the weather.

Just started to snow here again.

Pixie dust to all those are ill -- knock on wood am feeling much better than last Sunday when I was sneezing and coughing with the best of them.

I obviously should have been on the board rather than working this afternoon. At least tomorrow is Friday.

My DS was at the Raptors game last night and was so excited because they won. Basketball is big for him. He spent last weekend watching all of the All Star stuff.

Don't watch The Bachelorette but am looking forward to Survivor tonight although here it's on at the same time as the ER special so I'll have to hopefully tape one and watch it later.

Guess I should get back to work so that I can leave soon.

A BIG CRUISETOBERFEST-2 WELCOME TO Sarah'sMomfrom PA AND videoman!!!
I am curious, have you been reading this thread for a while and finally posted or did you just find us? And if you did just find us, do you plan on reading this entire massive thread? SOME people who have been here from the beginning, don't even read everything posted. (Oh the things we can say about these people and they would never even know it!) - LOL

Welcome back from WDW Elaine. Glad you had a nice visit (who wouldn't?).

Fun wishes to Ave and Mary on their Hilton Head weekend. Hope the weather is not bad for you guys.

Ave - Are you REALLY going to keep secret the location of the Aft 6 Deck? That's okay, though. We have a private lounge area on Deck 2 where we get complementary drinks but only the Deck 2 people will know about it now. Since you don't want to share your deck with us, we won't share our lounge with you!!

Colleen (Scootersmom) - Thanks for trying to make me feel better with your Josh story.

Mike - Rich has not tried downloading Ichat yet. But he will.

TAMMY - SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU POSTING!!!! Yes, you are on the right thread. You just have to sort through the myriad of conversations, many different ones on this one thread. But that's okay, we like it like that. You will get used to it but you have to keep up with reading otherwise you'll say "what the hell is going on here?!!" Just jump in whereever you want and respond to someone or start a new topic or, be like me, and have your own conversations!!!!
