I just watched another DCL youtube video ... so now I'm sitting at work with a tissue and a wet face. Is there a support group I can join?

I'm here for you Shoshie.

I'm here for you Shoshie.

Thanks Sandy!

I think I'll give out small packets of kleenex as my FE gift (sounds like a lot of us are going to need it!)

Hey I got a package on our cruise last month and have them in my purse as a daily reminder. It makes a practical FE and you can never have too much tissue.

EastYorkDisneyFan posted this to another thread:
If there are any large groups going on this a good Idea would be to have someone organize a group rate for tours now, I was with a group on the Eastbound one last summer (not from the Dis) and someone from our group contacted the Zip line company in Puerto Vallarta two years before the cruise and secured a time slot before DCL could, a group from the Dis did this too and had the slot after us, all of DCL's excursions for this experience were in the afternoon there website is http://www.canopytours-vallarta.com/

I would LOVE to do this if anyone else is game!!!!

Rob (my DH) would be VERY interested in doing this in a group. He's been wanting to do this for a while but there is no way in - you know what - that I'm going with him!

Sending my dh to do it on our cruise next month - several other men and boys going too, but the women are NOT.

I would kill to do this (well,not really, but you get the idea). It's my DH who needs some convincing. We will, though, probably do something that all my kids can enjoy. There will be plenty of time, God willing, to do all those things when the kids are older.

Why love New York? consider it from a baseball perspective...

Lets say Boston has a generous million people (wikipedia lists the city as having ~600K). And lets say 100% are Red Sox fans (no straggling Braves fans left). If we set equal the number of Red Sox fans to the number of Yankees fans and Mets fans... then there are still 6 Million New Yorkers who are more interested in the Giants, Jets, Rangers, Islanders, Knicks, Cyclones... or going to the Met, AMNH, a musical, etc... etc...

The City is not for everyone... but there's a reason why it's known as 'The City', as well as why Mr. Sinatra didn't choose Poughkeepsie for the subject of his song (although it does rhyme with 'tipsy').

What I would really like y'all to consider is - NEW YORK STATE is NOT New York CITY!

Where We live in New York STATE, the air is fresh and smells more like pine woods than old goats. The "rats" look like Chip and Dale, unless you're talking about the hockey team. Sports are the local high school, of course, and the inevitable little league, but just as popular and not age limited are kayaking, canoeing, hiking, back packing, fishing, hunting, skiing, snowshowing, swimming, boating, and just doing nothing.

Theater is shows at Proctors, or the Palace, Alive at 5 on the banks of the Hudson, and Capitol Rep. There are millions of acres in New York state that are NOT New York City. Did you know the Adirondack Park is larger than the largest National park in the United States? I sound like a travel bureau, but It just makes me when people talk about New York City like that's all there is to New York!

Thank you, Jeff, for incorporating the FE list into the website. I think it will be much easier for everybody (except you, of course) for it to be there.

I had DH fix the port name for our Costa Rica stop on the map graphic, this should look better.

He also did a couple more for me.

 

[Skylarr29]

Carol~ Those look great.




I'm off to Disney tomorrow so I will be totally lost by the time I come back in a week

 

[JenKatt]

Since there is interest in the zipline excursion, can someone look into it? Normally I would do the leg work but besides working full time I'm also in grad school. Topple that with a 2 year old and I don't think I would be a good person to handle it.

 

[tinksmom]

carol, love the new graphics! I'm in to the down-time part of my week now, so I hope to spend lots of time looking over the website; and getting back to people who've pm'd me.
Night all . . .

Love this! Can we make a copy for our door if it's not chosen as the group design? Inquiring minds want to know!

This is my last post for awhile. Everything is packed, ready to leave at the "crack of dark." The Goof half of Goofprincess is taking me to the airport for a WDW vacation. DH will join me there tomorrow evening. At least he's not home, trying to blow up the moon. (The NASA facility where he works is in charge of this fun event early tomorrow morning.)

BTW, YAY for the Dodgers. Hope the Angels win tonight, too. Would love to see a Freeway World Series.

I have my assignment to check out the new Cove Cafe, Outlook Bar and to see if they have an Ocean Quest for the kidlets. Watch for a post from Goofprincess regarding my discoveries later on the 18th - I'll call her with a report. I've heard a rumor to the effect that there will be a cigar bar/lounge/something. Has anyone else heard this?

Hope everyone has a magical weekend. "See you in 3 weeks." I'm sure there'll be a lot of reading to catch up on.

Well lots going on today. I love the new Graphics. I had a busy day. My wonder Wife scored me a field level ticket to todays Dodger playoff game, and what a game it was. Go Dodgers!!!!!!. Off to Disneyland tomorrow. Still have to pack for my upcoming WDW/DCL/WDW trip on Wed. I have a lot to do, and I am not doing it.

 

[shushh]

Aahhh, all you lucky people! Getting to go on DCL, and going to WDW and Disneyland. If only we were closer!!!

Carol, that mouse ears map is GREAT! I am SO with Shirley on that one!!!!

JenKatt, I don't see HOW you keep up with it all! What's your area of study?
Happy Day, all.

Good morning to all my fellow cruisers!!!

Haven't posted for a couple of days.

The graphics are all very good!!! Knowing Candy she will have to copy all of them for the stateroom door. How do you pick a t-shirt/logo design? They are all soooo good!

Have a good day...

Have a great trip Shirley! We want a FULL report!
