First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise Use Multiquote, It Saves Nine

[firsttimemom]

Hi all posting from TGI Fridays. I'm enjoying a delicious frozen mudslide. Wish I'm already drunk! Wish I knew how to post a pic with the iPhone.

Oh, that mudslide sounds sooooo goooood! Other than facebook, the only way I know is to email your pic to someone and have them post it. There HAS to be an easier way!

On all of my caribbean cruises you stay on ship time. The time does not change on the ship even if the time was different at the port.

This is not true on Disney Cruises. You will always be on local time with the Disney sailings.

Have fun Alicia!

We're off to go see Monsters vs Aliens in a few with eight, 8 & 9 year old girls. Should be interesting.

May the Force be with you.

If I wasn't positive that Brandie is quite a bit younger than me, I would ask...

Separated at birth?!!!!

OMG! I forgot the most important clue/detail of all!
We share the same birthday too!!!!

Wow. That is pretty weird.

I married into money and it bites. My father in law is a multi millionaire and the biggest D-bag I've ever met.



Big Dodie!!

My FIL is a multi millionaire, but we love him to death. His kids are a bunch of *****s and my MIL is his second wife so we are his only real family that still talk to him. Long story..but he is great and loves my kids alot.

I b00b-dialed my daughters pediatrician the other day. The receptionist called me and asked if everything was okay... I had NO idea what she was talking about until I checked my history. My phone was in my shirt pocket.

umm.....

Shhhhhhh...don't tell anyone...






I'm a little tipsy...





Diet Coke and 99 Cherries...

Atta girl! Get that tolerance built up.

Mornin'. Not much posting last night.

Hey Paul, I was out last night and hunting all day. Just got caught up.

Cruise Anxiety Confession Time

I am very much looking forward to the cruise but as it is getting closer I am having major anxiety about how much I will feel the ship rock, especially at night. Our cabin is in the middle of the ship on deck 7, and I am realistic to the fact that the boat does move and we will feel some sort of rockiness but I have to admit the last cruise I went on (Norweign Dawn out of NYC) I was miserable at night completely anxiety stricken because I would freak out with every movement and swore I would never cruise again..... I have never gotten seasickness (knock wood) so that is not the issue...anyway I did get a prescription of ambien and xanax from my doctor and I will take it as a last resort..but overall how bad is it going to be, my mother keeps telling me the water is much less rocky when you do not leave out of the port from NYC....confession over!

We love to sleep on the ship. I have always loved the rocking. The rocking is gentle especially this time of year since it is before hurricane season.

I hope that you have a relaxing cruise. Maybe try swinging in a hmock before you go could help you feel more comforatble on the ship.

Just a thought.

This is not true on Disney Cruises. You will always be on local time with the Disney sailings.

That's crazy! It is so much easier not to change! Say you start in Miami go to
St. Thomas 1 hour ahead, then go to Bahamas I think your going back an hour, then I'm coming from two hours behind to start with!

This may be one thing I wouldn't like if I was to take a 7 day cruise.
My last cruise was 8 nights and 5 different islands.

I'm like Chris, I love the rocking. I sleep better on the cruise. I feel like I'm being rocked to sleep.
Good Luck! I hope you sleep better on this cruise.

Interesting. We've gotten nothing despite a quick anniversary trip next month. I wonder if its because we are staying at VWL on points?

Here's the email. We only received these for our cash ressies.

We're watching Dead Man's Chest today! Disney movies are a regular activity around here. We just received 7 more in the mail yesterday!

They were supposed to be for Jennie's Easter basket!

OK, I don't know if anyone has any recent experience, but throwing this out there anyway....

I applied for my 5 yo daughter's passport on Feb 25th (we are going on a family cruise in August), and the postal worker who took the application said processing is taking 2-3 weeks.

About a week later they cashed my check, so I know they got it. But over a month later I still have not received her passport! I've checked online several times, but information is always not available. I could call, but it's not urgent, except for the fact that one of the documents I had to send (her certificate of citizenship) is not replaceable!!

Has anyone applied for a new passport recently who could share their timeline?

TIA!

I was talking to the lady at the PO and she said the turn around time is now 4-6 weeks.

We do the Disney Movie Rewards, and I have saved our points for quite awhile. I thought I would share with everyone what I got, because I think it's a decent deal. For 400 points you can get skinit covers for you phones, ipods, or small electronic device. I think that's a pretty decent deal, because they cost $15. They also have laptop skins for 800 points. But, I'm thinking I want to hunt down a picture of my own. Maybe Jeff has a great picture of the Disney Wonder he can share with me (hint, hint) Or a great one of the castle.

Here's what we are saving up for. Paul's favorite character.

Have one for me Alicia!

It was so yummy! Even if Paul was grumpy about it. Paul---> Me--->

You can post a pic to FB!

Thanks for the tip, even if I was too sloshed to figure it out!

In the Facebook application on your iPhone, touch the camera in the upper right portion of the screen. On the pop-up menu, touch "Choose Existing Photo" and then navigate to the picture you want to upload.

Thanks Jeff! Good to know for next time.

Have fun Alicia!

We're off to go see Monsters vs Aliens in a few with eight, 8 & 9 year old girls. Should be interesting.

Have a blast Aaron!!!! And Happy Birthday Anna!

MMMMMM, mudslide. Yummy. . Unfortunately, I am allergic to kahlua. I miss it.

Someone needs to event a better way! Oh Don...



Well, we had a fun afternoon. We went to Friday's, then Barnes and Noble to check out the new D23 mag. I found a cute bathing suit at Macy's. Then Paul and Jennie went to Friendly's for ice cream while I shopped at Sephora and VS. Great day!

 

[LMO429]

What are you trying to post? You took a photo with your iPhone and want to post it on the DIS or on facebook? The quickest way is to upload it to facebook and then post a link on the DIS.

This may be one thing I wouldn't like if I was to take a 7 day cruise.
My last cruise was 8 nights and 5 different islands.

Were they all in different time zones? During daylight savings time there is no change. The advantage to this is you don't have to worry about the time on the ship when you are on an island. I have heard many stories about people checking the local time and getting back to the ship an hour late.

Great suggestions! Thankfully, it was the pizza that slowed them down......For now.
My wife Kim wants them to paint their nails. I'm not so sure about that idea.

You have the facebook app for you iphone right?

Yep. Next time I'm out boozing it up, I'll know what to do.

Sounds like fun!
