Shew, all caught up... got lost in the real world there for a while and ended up 4 pages behind. Hope you have fun on your trip to France Virgil, we'll be drinking wine and thinking about you.



For anyone else that is interested, this is what happend last time I went on a cruise... I got harassed by a comedian in front of half the ship!



-Nick

You pulled it off well! And that was your first Disney Cruise How are you going to top that one???

Maybe we should get together and have some wine in Virgil and Lauren's honor... Even though we're scheduled in 2009 to make the 2nd annual "Even Though We Live 5 Miles Apart - We fly across the country to get together trip" - let's not wait that long!!! (I think that may be too wordy for a trip logo.... )

Don't worry, I'm slowly catching up, too - July has been insane for our family.

I'm booked!!!!

I went through Dreams Unlimited and got a much lower rate then I could get on the Disney website. We are in a Cat 12 guaranteed room. I don't mind being in the cheapest room as long as I'm on that beautiful boat!

As for a logo for our group, I've designed many iron-ons for t-shirts over at TGM. If we come up with a name, I can come up with a logo!

Ok, let's see some ideas for that logo!!

 

[jlawall]

How about...


Mutiny on the Magic
We're takin' 'er to Tortola


Surely "Mutiny on the Magic" has been used before, though.

This one looks good to me too!

 

[MrsG]

I love the logo!!!

How is the cruise JoAnn?

Lucy, JoAnn and Wendy- even though we had a great trip, I wish we were there with you

 

[jlawall]

100 Mrs. G
200 Mrs. G "Captain Fluffy X2"
300 AdventureBlondeBoy "Blonde Pirate"
400 Kanga "Captain Jingles"
500 Mickeymo "Captain Cubbies"
600 jlawall "Captain Lucky"
700 jlawall "Captain Jet-lagged Lucky!"
800 lwilliams "Captain Dizzy"
900 3princessmommy "Captain Ouaga"

Sorry I'm so late with this, but I had a good excuse........I was on the Wonder!

Ok, the next pirate will be a BIG one............the 1000th post........who will get it? Let the pillaging and pirating begin...................

 

[MrsG]

Fluffy, fluffy, fluffy.

Oh wait, I'm way too early to be fluffing around. I am Captain Fluffy after all.

Sorry, MaryAnn, thx so much for sending those pics......they were great! And congrats on your son's job, you should be so proud! Any employment would be amazing at our house, my oldest, Tara should be done her schooling in December. It's looking good for a NYC position at this point!

We'll be modified empty nesters in August when the two youngest go to school. Then they'll be "out and in" but I don't think that's the same.

About the driving, it doesn't get easier (but you do get used to it.)

I have to go back and reread the trip to France stuff, but I do plan to drink a glass of wine for some reason!

I won't see Wendy, but Lucy will meet her tomorrow. I'm going home tonight. THE WONDER WAS AMAZING, I highly recommend that trip. I thought it would be too short but it really was nice. The crew was fantastic and we really loved that trip. If you can only do a short trip, I highly recommend it!!!

Any reason is a good reason for a glass of wine!

I'm frantically finishing up my special project for the Houston YMCAs - I was all over in the middle of nowhere Houston yesterday - far southwestern suburbs - waaay far out - but with the Houston sprawl, I probably was close to Austin.

John's family is descending on Houston tomorrow, we've rented a beach house in Galveston for the week - In the middle of 3 more aquatic department audits today - we're about ready to head out - I'm cooking and freezing meals for the week, crock pot is fired up, plus I trying to tackle loads of laundry.

So, all that said - by 5:00 CDT - I'll be ready for happy hour, anyone care to join me?

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't been on here in awhile, but something has been going through my head. Where to have our Meet and greet? I was thinking if I could call up Disney and ask if we can have it in Studio Sea. Anyone else game for this? Does anyone have advise when asking this????

We had a Dismeet in the open lounge area next to where they used to have the computers. At night they have a singer there - help me someone- I'm having a senior moment. I think it was a little before the stairs near Parrot Cay. Anyway, DCL had no problem if we met quietly there. They had some sort of activity for the kids scheduled there but since all the kids that were there were part of the Dis group, they cancelled their activity as the kids were more interested in the meet than the activity. I'm not sure if they'll let us have Studio Sea.

 

[jlawall]

We were in the Promenade Lounge (right next to the computer lab.)

 

[MrsG]

That was it, thanks!!

Not that I can find. I tried searching around to see and couldnt find anything. I even googled it and the only hit I got was this thread. Sounds like a good name to me

Where is Studio Sea and why would Disney not let us use it???

Studio Sea is move of an enclosed room and I think there's a lot of equipment there. Promenade Lounge always has a staff there serving drinks. Maybe a cast member has to be there?

LOL, here ya go. Something I threw together in a couple minutes:

Edit: OMG why is it so big? the actual picture is about 1/4 that size...

 

[MrsG]

Wow you are super fast!!!!!

I think it should be all right as far as disney copywrite. We had a terrible time getting our tee shirt printed last time because of the mouse ears. They are copywrited and many printers wouldn't print them for us. We explained that we were a group on the disney cruise. We contacted Disney about it and all they said was that since we weren't selling them and were only using them for personal use, it was ok.

I love the design!

Thanks!
