[Scott H]

Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch........

It was better than "It's a Small World"

Now try to get that one out of your head

Sorry

 

[Scott H]

OK SCUBA gear is packed, Lynn is packed, now it is time to pack my stuff.

Basically, just Tux and sport coat etc.

 

[Scott H]

OK All Packed Up,

Now a little house cleaning.

Lynn just realized she needs to get up at 4:30 so we can make the 6:40 flight.

 

[Joe & Joanne]

[cmatt]

Joe- Thanks for coming to FL- we really need the rain. The greenery is turning brown and crispy.

NervousNelly- I've been thinking about moving to
Melbourne Beach. A nice small town compared to the massive growth and constuction around the Royal Palm Beach and Wellington area. You think it was crowded 12 yrs ago- you should see it now.

 

[legs22]

Just wait until you see the Magic for the first time in person! It is so awesome!

 

[offwego]

Well, all done packing, too. Wait a minute....here they are...those little umbrellas for our homemade Mai Tai's. OK, now we're set
Buzz

 

[Scott H]

Joe Thanks for the note but Lynn is not buying it.

 

[Scott H]

Now I am done, just have to load the bags in the jeep.

 

[Joe & Joanne]

Hi Folks

OK Scott, since you are probably still up and pacing, racing and all that, I thought I would tell you to have a safe trip and we will see you at the port. (I tried)

Legs: Our neighbors in Destin, Navarre and FWB keep saying come down for a week or so (our house is rented) the weather is great? (Not!) Always rains in FLA.

Joanna: been doing the rain dance for a year now here in NJ and all I get is limpy legs. I don't care what the weather is like as long as I can listen to the waves, be with Joanne and ya'll for some peace and quiet. The timer is getting short.

I just put in a trickle (drip) irrigation layout in the garden, so no one can see if I am in violation of the water police. Tomatoes are going to be on my plate this summer.

Bunnymom: What airline????????? You have the shirts? We will change into them Saturday. I figure after the RAD, the pointy cups and sleeping on the lounge chairs (bringing Bens bug stuff), I should need a change

CMATT: Hope you are all ok and in good spirits. We will see you across the hall. Could not get room changed so I guess we will be passing in the halls. Good thing in case we forget our room numbers. Have a safe trip, save room for the brewski!

PSIKLOPS: On the PCs (not personal computers, silly), We can give em out at the party or on deck 10 sailaway. If I remember right the BF always tastes like cardboard or something similar

 

[Scott H]

Joe, Thanks And a valiant effort it was. Yep tossing and turning. will try top catch a couple of hours.

Will post one more just before we leave.

 

[Scott H]

Rise and shine campers

Well a couple of hours of sleep will work.

We are Hasta la Bye Bye from here in about one hour.

Will see ya all at the port, or maybe at WDW.

Delta flight from SLC to MCO is really full , doubt if we will take a bump.

We wish one and all a very safe and pleasant journey. Thanks to all who helped get this group together.

So in the words of Caesar "let the Games begin" I think he said that.

Looking forward to putting faces with the names.

 

[Scott H]

Oh I forgot:

It is time to do the vacation dance......

"I'm on vacation...I'm on vacation...I'm on vacation...I'm on vacation...I'm on vacation..."

but who's counting?????????

I am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joe, we are not on the same flight We're on USAir straight to Orlando MCO. Maybe we'll recognize you and Joanne at the airport as we walk to our gate. Look for 40ish couple with skinny boy hopping around like Mexican jumping bean, that will be our Ian. Our flights leave at the same time so we should be waiting around with the other cattle, just at different gates.

Okay, so nothings packed. The DH seems to think he can do it in the morning before we leave. I'll be up all night packing and repacking. No matter, I won't be sleeping anyhow.

Many thanks to all on the DIS Boards for all your help. This is our first ever cruise and we couldn't have done it without ya'll!!!!

Joe, Goose, great job gettin us here on the 5/11 thread organized. Jim, thanks again for the timers. Everyone else, thanks for answering my endless questions!!

See everyone on Saturday!! Bon Voyage to all of us!!!

Oh yeah, Joe, you were the first post on page 100. I owe you a brewski!!!!!!!

Buenos Dias all,

Terry, Pat & Ian




PS--thanks to Shirley at the Perfect Gift, we'll write soon Hon!!!!

Hello everyone... Let's see, how much company do we now have down in Orlando. CMatt is enroute...Scott is coming, Goose is here...Cool...

Only 48 hours till we drive to the port. I can't believe it is here already. Not really packed yet. Will probably start tonight and finish it up tomorrow evening. Joe when you comin???

Gotta get my 2 bottles of BF...Joe you got enough pointy cups for everyone??? Do I need to bring some of those?

DD is really excited and DH is actually starting to get excited... Never thought I'd see the day.

See you in a couple of days.

I was doing real work stuff the last two days, out of the office and it took me 45 minutes to catch up!

We fly down to sunny FLA Friday arriving at 9:00 pm! Now I'm down to two briefings before I leave the office!

I never did find postcards, so I'm bringing the business cards I made up. They've got a Tae Kwon Do person on them, go figure!

See you all really really soon!

 

[Psiklops]

Safe trip, everyone!

Shirley, thanks for the info on the mopeds in KW - might be looking into those. If so, we'll be sure to say 'hi' to Charlie.

Packing? Who's had time to pack when I'm out looking for BF, power strips, postcards, underwater cameras, Jimmy Hoffa, zip-loc bags, rain ponchos, Bonine, Mr. Goodbar, suntan lotion, Safe Sea goop, bugspray, Waldo, waterproof ID holders, lanyards, needle in a haystack, and 2-way radios?

What?!? Clothes? I have no ROOM for clothes! I think I've accidentally packed the cat (my bag is meowing).

Oh well, see ya'll in a couple of days!

- Jim

 

[katmom]

We don't leave until Saturday morning but I had to take tomorrow off of work to START packing! Oh well, if you see a bunch of people wandering around the boat with mismatched outfits, no sunscreen and hair unbrushed, you'll know it's us and you'll understand why! Just wanted to wish everyone a safe trip and we're looking forward to meeting you all soon!
