February 28, 2009 Bushwacker Banditos Magical Cruise

[RookieMouse]

Tink, your kids and mine have got to get together. I never even noticed they were the same age (although our DD will be 7 at sailing time). I'd be happy to join the Bushwhacker gang, although I may buck the trend and drink Mojitos instead (amaretto does not sit well with my system). My wife, however, loves amaretto, and would probably love bushwhackers. Nice of Johnna to volunteer you to pick up the tab

I'm with you, Johnna... Pirates night in Parrot Cay, formal in Lumiere's, and servers to charm my kids into some semblance of socially acceptable behaviour, and I'm happy (with a mojito or six under my belt).

Donna, great wedding photos, and congrats on your anniversary. Johnna, by the look of your pictures, my two sisters and sister-in-law would blend right in with the Bushwhacker Banditos (yep, we are travelling with the whole famn damily ) When the three of them get together, there is no telling what will happen, and it is usually hilarious, unless they are ganging up on their big brother (me)...

Now I really can't wait for this cruise... for two reasons. One, I want to meet all the DISers on this thread, and two, because then winter will be mostly over. The leaves started to turn here last week, and with two windy days, they are mostly on the ground now and I'm getting depressed as hell just thinking about the cold and snow. (Close eyes, picture Castaway Cay, think happy thoughts, repeat as necessary...)

Rookie- My DD actually turned 7 day before yesterday. I have to update my signature I guess. So they truly are the same ages I think. They are in 1st and 5th grade.

Come on over and join the club. Donna would greatly appreciate more people so that she can place the responsibility of the tab on the newest member.... I think Ness was looking to join too; so better get your bid in before her.

As far as me picking up the tab Lady Story...... With BJ being the president of the club; I would have to average delivering about 14 babies a week. I do not think there were that many people making whoopie 9 months ago.... If I had to pick up the tab, the lady would come back and say "Sorry Miss, your card has been declined......" Since BJ is the president, I think she should pick up the tab. I have an even better idea, since the Story's can afford so many trips and did not invite me, maybe she owes us to be the tab pickerupper....

Donna, Thank you sooooo much for sharing the pictures. You all looked so perfect and beautiful/handsome. They are both very attractive and will make precious little babies. The wedding looked perfect and the entire party was perfect. You sure was a foxy MOG (Mother of the Groom). Thanks again for sharing.

Johnna, thank you for sharing your pictures again. It looks as if you had a wonderful time again. I love the robes. We will not tell Mark, you guys faked the whole hospital thing just to peep at the MDs. I have to now go back to last years pictures to look at everyone over the year. Have you ever got any of them interested in cruising?

BJ the invite still stands......

Hi Guys!

Thanks for all the compliments and best wishes. It was a beautiful wedding but I am glad it is over. It's hard to believe they have now been married a month.

Johnna, what a trip!!! I hope all of your moms gone wild weekends don't include a trip to the ER. I hope drinking bushwackers didn't contribute to the ER trip or we might all be in trouble on our cruise. Glad you're back home safe and sound but probably not as happy as your DH is to have you home!!!

Tink, you really are trying to pass the buck (uh, I mean tab) on paying for the Bushwackers, aren't you?

Short and sweet tonight as its bedtime and I have a headache...poor Russell. (tee hee)

I wanna be part of the Bushwackers Club!

I hope I'm not the last one in!
If I am, just hand me the bill and I'll turn right around and hand it to my husband and run as fast as I can away from him.
He'd probably look at it and throw himself overboard.

This month is almost over and we're that much closer to sailing! WOOOO!

 

[ejkjmom]

WOW!! The Bushwackers seem to be the HOT TOPIC of this thread
Vanessa..you are in ....
TOO funny about your husband and the bill

WE may have to send word ahead to the bars before we cruise, so they can check their inventory on all the Bushwacker ingredients LOL!!!
Would really hate to run out of anything needed, while we were in the middle of the ocean

Johnna... thanks for sharing you Pics of your trip..looks like you had a FUN group of Mom's...sorry about your friend having to go to the Hospital...Hope she is doing better

well, I'll be on the cruise before this one as well as this one, so I can get word ahead the the bars

Sounds good

Bet you are REALLY looking forward to this trip.. a back to back..that would be fun!!! Have you ever done this before???

 

[Johnna_Story]

Oh crap. Marla will drink all our bushwackers before we even get there. So... SHE'LL already have the bar tab started. Once they re-stock, we'll just keep adding to her tab.

This is working out Perfectly.

nope never done it, looking forward to it, then I'll be in disney world for my birthday march 11th, so should be a amazing trip

I won't have a bar tab, I bring Monster Energy drinks and redbull with me and drink them. Although in July I did drink a lot of Shirley Temple's

See, Johnna you have the answer. We might as well make it easy on the staff. Since your KTWC will already be in the system, we may as well use it. Marla, if you pick up the tab, I will sit and let you talk about baseball for an entire afternoon. I may even cheer for your favorite team next summer. Now forgive me if I have an IPod plugged in my ears as you talk about homeruns.....

The club is growing and growing. Now after I finish all the turkey legs at Pirate night, more than the club will be growing; my backside will be too.

Marla, you may have to be our singing peformer too this time with Johnna. She does a cool Gloria Gaynor.

I think you should just live in Florida..... How exciting for such a long trip.

Okay, Shirley Temples...Energy drinks...Marla you are officially our DW...Our Designated Walker LOL!!!!

You can see to it that all of us Bushwacker Lushes make it back to our rooms safely ever night..Maybe we can get you a beeper so you can come and get us when we are ready to go LOL
Or maybe we can just hang out with you at the Rock'n D Ba

well I'll have a IPod in me ear half the time on the cruise anyway . And I had to sing Gloria Gaynor song last cruise, well lets just say oh boy, It was like 5 of us and well it was a good laugh for people

Tinker..you are too funny

Make sure you save a turkey leg (or two) for me

Good BJ....... We need extra "Stabilizers". Last cruise the ship pulled them in due to the engine issues, so this time we will just bring out own, "Marla"..... She is already hanging in the bars at night, so might as well put her sobberness to use. Shirley Temples us me, Bushwackers on Marla.

 

[ejkjmom]

Tinker...you must be incognito, and have your light off????

I'm always a Designated something,so that's good for me for one I'm not old enough to drink and two I just don't like drinking that much, my friends drink I'm good with a redbull and maybe every once in a while I'll get a Daiquiri, but not really much I get that from my mom

You guys will have to hop over to the Trip Reports and read the "Just Boarded Magic" thread...someone who just boarded today is posting about the changes made while in dry dock....here is his link with pictures he took today, he is pretty disappointed in his stateroom and such.... http://www.flickr.com/photos/7510475...7607471991204/

I have been anxious to hear about the changes made, and must admit, that I too may be a bit disappointed about the Lack of change made in the staterooms....be sure to check out the Goofy Pool
