Absolutely cute thanks for the pick

Cute little girl! She sleeps like my DNiece with her hands under her cheek.

That's hilarious!

My wife thought I was well and truly off my rocker when I asked her to take that shot. The inspiration came from many of the comical references to all things bathroom that I read in several trip reports. It one of my favorite shots from the trip!

I keep joking with my husband that I should make a photobook of her sleeping pictures. I have her sleeping all over the restaurants in Disney World and the ship.

Whoever found this originally was either very lucky to get in or had a link through another site.

We are fortunate to have the photo for now. Hopefully as the ships get into production people will be posting info and web cams that work for us.

Right now there is a web cam for the ship yard but no way to know if either of these will be the berth (?) where they will build OUR ships.

A search of this site leads to no pages related to Disney that I could find today. No listing for us even in the media releases about new ships.

I know norweigen gem should be sailing by the end of the year. I think her first cruise is in december. so that empties a berth for a disney ship.

Yeah it seems that the link was long and it got truncated with dots. The images are pretty well protected for now. Looks like Meyer Werft got the contract so maybe it will land on a German web cam for construction. I noticed Meyer had some cam links, pretty interesting jumping on the bridges of some big ships from the comfort of my office chair in real-time. What a virtual world we live in.

Here's me looking like a drowned rat after the Eco Tour at Castaway Cay. Actually this was at the half way point on the sand bar 1-1/2 miles from the ship.

THANKS so much. I did not know they had their own translation capability. Now I will have to go back to the website and see how much more sense I can make of it in the Queen's English than I could translating with my two years of German taken 36 years ago in college.
THANKS AGAIN!!

Keeping with the life vest theme...

DH looks less than thrilled that I am taking his picture in this one. He is much cuter when he smiles.

I call this his "I am hot and look like an idiot and now you are taking my picture, thanks alot" look. If he knew I posted this he would kill me.
