My favorite Monty Python is Meaning of Life - I laughed so hard at that movie!

This was fun, so many great answers.

 

[jlawall]

just okay? how does it compare to Trunk and Cinnamon bays? Okay to get there in short time we are in port?

I think there is plenty of time to get to St John...when we get home I'm going to check prices.

 

[gonecrusin]

1: What is your favorite movie genre? Romantic comedy and musicals running a close 2nd.

2: If you could only watch one movie for the rest of your life, what would it be? The Holiday at the moment. White Christmas is an all time favorite.

3: What kind of music do you like? All, especially those that I can sing along with. It depends on my mood or what I am doing at the time. In the car it's definitely, sing-along. Radio when I want someone else to make the choice.

4: How do you like to listen to it? (I-pod, CD, cassette, good ol' LP, etc.) CD. I tried an i-pod but there were too many choices

5: If you could go to one place to visit - where would it be? Tahiti with a stop at the new vacation club in Hawaii. Actually, I want to get on the DCL ship in CA and cruise to Hawaii visit the DVC (when it's finished) continue on the ship to Tahiti stay a few days and get back on the ship and redo what I had done from the start backwards.

6: Do you speak a foreign language? If so, which one? If not, which one do you wish you'd learned? Elementary School French, High School Spanish and I'm not very good at either. Are you kidding I'm still trying to perfect my English I just don't seem to be speaking the same language with my kids and their friends most times.

7: If you could meet one person on earth, who would it be? Pope John Paul II, I have always admired him. Present day, Michelle O'Bama

8: What car do you drive? White (no my favorite color) Ford Escape with varing MM antenna toppers depending on the time of year.

9: What is your dream job? Main Street gossip in WDW. Of course if my memory gets any worse I wouldn't be able to remember what the gossip was from one side of the street to the other.

10: How long have you been planning this cruise? Since I realized that we couldn't affort to go on the European 2010 cruise. It's always when we are coming to the end of one cruise we are thinking where the next will be. We just can't get enough.

Just in case anyone was still confused as to where we actually live - Maybe Jon Stewart's recent program can clarify:

*Disclaimer - You may not want to watch the entire clip with small children in the room, after minute 2 - it gets crass and has absolutely nothing to do with Burkina Faso! But the first part is funny...

 

[WVMD]

That reminded me of a picture I took last summer in Paris.... I was thinking of you...

Virgil

Now, even I don't have a photo like that! Whatever prompted you to take it???

 

[MrsG]

That was soooo funny JoAnn #2!!!!! And you are right, now I can picture EXACTLY where Burkina Faso is! Jon Stewart sounded just like I did the first time I tried to pronounce the "O" capital.

 

[3princessMommy]

We're part of the hard to pronounce capital club:

Ouagadougou
Nouakchott
Antananarivo

Say that three times fast!!!

Well - I saw the Embassy - said wow - never would have noticed it before - so I took the picture.....

Isn't it 100 days away now? Or is my countdown clock off. I'll start paying more attention to the thread not that we are much closer to the sailaway party. Been reviewing all the choices for shore excursions. I'll probably do a beach in St. Thomas/St. John - any recommendations?

Welcome back!

We have JoAnn #1 doing research in St. Thomas right now - hopefully next week we'll have a full read-out. Although she did recommend one beach on St. John already -- I'll have to look back for the name.

 

[jlawall]

Ok research is almost over......we're at the airport......I have definitely learned a lot.....I plan to look over the DCL website to price excursions......any beach on ST John is fabulous...we like Trunk Bay or Cinnamon Bay

 

[♥sassy♥tink♥]

[jlawall]

We are officially under 100 days... YIPPEE!!
