Eastern 1/19/2008 Where is the !@#$ Ship? No seriously... where's the ship?!

[CRSNDSNY]

What fun pictures!!!

 

[chepic]

LOL! We wondered how many people were rolling their eyes about our family picture attire. Beth, you have to post some pics soon... I know we must have seen you at some point.

And Cheryl, I remember you in front of us. If I remember correctly T1 was being her lovely tween self. Sigh...

But they line went quickly, once Jack arrived, didn't it? And they were thrilled to get autographs too. I thought he was an awesome Jack. Great mannerisms. My boys informed me that it was 'most certainly' the REAL Capt'n Jack.

Love it.

Yes, I remember the attitude!!!! We had a boy in our group with the same attitude, you can see it in one of the group pictures I will be posting on my TR.

Oh and Beth.....great matching disney shirts....we wore ours (I had the dress) the day we walked on board!!!!

We got the attitude and eye rolls too from both DS's during the trip..lol
We only had one request, dinner and pictures...after that they were free to do what they wanted, as long as we knew what and where. DS(10) didn't have sign out privledges, so we didn't worry.(ok I worried he like the lab better then us..he LOVED Edson) and DS(17) had to put his location on a notepad in the room, and if it changed, he had to come and update it.

This is so amazing! We had Albert as our room attendant and we sat at table 41 with Luis and Graham for the second seating.
Bethipooh you must have had the table beside us. I wish I knew!
It was a wonderful and expensive cruise as we are now DVC members!!!!
Cheers!

 

[CraftyMouse]

OMG...YOU HAD LUIS AND GRAHAM!!!!

We had them on our Back-to-Back in December and they were fantastic! (There are lots of pictures of them in my "One Is Not Enough!" trip report!)

We've gotten a few phone calls from Luis since we've been home and an email from Graham. Graham is leaving the ship in late February and I'm not sure if he's signing on for another contract. Luis said he'd definitely be there for our 15-night Panama Canal cruise and we can't wait to see him again.

 

[bertalander]

We LOVED Luis and Graham. I saw their pics in your trip report and was showing the kids just last night!

I'll update again Saturday. Have to squeeze into that gown. Trust me... it's beyond scary. Sigh...

 

[Bethipooh4]

MArdi Gras balls..sigh....we lived in Mobile for years..I miss them..and the parades..and the brownie moon pies..and banana moon pies..and the double decker moon pies..get the true reason I miss Mardi gras?

Berta, I am hijacking your TR for a moment....

ChristineH, I feel almost like I should apologise..our group was a....lively group..then add in alcohol..and well...we get a bit rowdy...lol
We were up against the wall, so you must have been the other table in front/behind us? Did you have the little girl who cried every time a character left? I felt so bad for her...(and mom and dad) but it was so cute

CraftyMouse,
We adored them. I cried when we said goodbye. After 4 cruises we finally got servers we felt a connection with. If you talk to Luis, tell him the MArshall/Szalanski/Hansen's at table 40 miss him!!!
And, if it isn't to much trouble could you please email Graham, and ask him if he would mind if you gave us his email. We have some pics we would like to send, and we would love to keep in touch with him.

I just loved your report!!! And the pictures were awsome!!

I do have a question, I saw that you tendered into St. Thomas. Where did they drop you off? At the dock or in town?

Thanks! When we were there in Jan 2006, we were at the dock.

 

[Bethipooh4]

and now a word from our sponsors..Luis and Graham...

Anyone here look familiar?

Little did he know how rowdy we could be as the week went on!!

Semi Formal Night with Catheryn

Two amazing sweeties!!

Ok, I am done hijacking your thread now..guess I should do my own TR..
Thank you for allowing me to post the pics...(i will behave, i will behave)

I would be happy to ask Graham if I can share his email. I don't hear from him that often though and am not sure if he'll get in touch with us before he leaves on the 23rd. If he does I'll definitely pass on your request!

Did he have any good Pirate jokes? When we sailed he only had 3 and all the punchlines were "Arrrrrgh!". We found a pirate joke book when we got home and sent it to him with some Christmas cookies. He emailed to let us know he was expanding his joke offerings and so I'm hoping he did.

Luis usually calls every two weeks on Saturday. He last called two weeks ago so we might hear from him tomorrow. The first time his name came up on our caller ID it was a surreal experience! Like a voice from another world, you know? We'll definitely let him know that you say hi!

...sniff... Now I REALLY miss them!

More Luis and Graham...

Luis signing DD's Disney Character Autograph Jeans. She has had many Disney characters sign them and then I embroider over the signatures. She asked both Luis and Graham to sign them!

 

[CRSNDSNY]

LOL
They look like they were AWESOME servers!

 

[ChristineH]

Bethipooh - No worries, we had so much going on with 5 kids under 8 at our table, we didn't even notice!
That is a picture of us! The back of my head is at the bottom. Everyone kept telling us that Haley (21 mos) would not get much out of the cruise but she had the most fun!!! She absolutely fell in love with Mickey! Last night her mom and I were going through the pictures and she just kept laughing at them all!

I am LOVING the pics of L&G. They need a fan club I think.

Be sure to tell Luis we said 'hi' and profusely apologize for the needier member of our party. (They will know JUST who we are talking about!)

I was going to do another day today. But my head is still aching from the ball... as dh put it, by the time I got home my coach had turned into a pumpkin a loooooong time ago. Ok, so I had a good time.

And then today I took dd and three friends to see the Hannah Montana movie this afternoon (dd's birthday party)...and they belted out HSM2 the entire drive there and back. Headache... getting worse.

And Beth... NO WAY! You lived in Mobile? We're just over in Fairhope. I love Mardi Gras over here. But there were NOT many moon pies last night. Sigh.

Anyways, I promise to update more soon.

Oh, and sorry, no stage show pics... unless someone else in my group took some. I just snagged some online pics for my little slideshow in my siggy.

Night all... need... more... Tylenol...
