July 19, 2007 - WONDER - Anyone else getting away from it all?

[favoriteslave]

Here is my answers:

What is your first name ? Tonya
How old are you ? 33 (will be 34 when I go on the cruise)
What is your favourite Disney movie ? I love POC, but Mulan is my favorite.
Who is your favourite Disney Character ? Stitch
How many times have you been to WDW ? this will make 3
Where do you like to stay in WDW/Orlando ? Saratoga (my home resort)
What is your favourite colour ? RED
What is your favourite non Disney movie ? Right now, Casino Royale, but will sit and watch HATARI over and over.


Its looks like STITCH won majority.

Gotta love Stitch!

Tonya: Any tips on staying at Saratoga? we will be staying there for first time after our cruise. We have points rented for a Studio. We usually try for BCV but since this trip was short notice - no availability. We are excited to try something new

Steph:

Yep gotta love Stitch.

We are staying there after the cruise also. I sprang for a 2 room so that DH and I could have some privacy. Actually I haven't stayed there and when my boss went with my DVC points he stayed at Old Key West. All I know from past experiences is try to get as close to the goings on as possible and that any resort requires some walking.

Dumb question to you all, do you make your family dress up in matching shirts the first day of the cruise? I have for the last two and really thinking about doing it on this one.

Hey Girls

Tonya - No, my lot wouldn't wear matching shirts, I'm lucky for them to put on a few Pirate items for Pirate night

Have either of you got any favourite photos from your previous Cruises that you are happy to share ? I'll post a couple of mine tomorrow, as I can't seem to upload mine

It's nice to see that Stitch is a favourite amongst us

I'll catch up with you tomorrow

Yes, we do and I think we might do it again for this cruise

Two room at Saratoga sounds great. I can't wait to check out the resort.

Has anyone made Palo ressies? we are planning to try for 6pm on Wed evening...hopefully, we can make our late dinner seating to collect our Pirate bandanas too.

 

[princessdaisy]

Mandy,

I have some photos but not sure how to post them on here. I will try to post this evening when I return from work.

Do you think Pirates 3 will be playing on the Wonder? I have yet to see it but my dd & dh went to see it on first day of opening. My dd is a HUGE Orlando Bloom fan. I am making her some "Orlando Bloom door signs" to put up on our stateroom door for the cruise.

This is a picture of the three of us our last day on the cruise. This was our christmas card. Mickey Mouse christmas card of course.

Have a great evening. TTYL.

OK Steph, first you need to load your photos onto your computer, then you need to load them onto a photo host site, I use photobucket.com or you can use The Dis http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/showmembers.php/cat/500, once you have registered on either site (the wdwinfo site will be your DISname), then browse and add your photos (both sites are free to register)

If you have loaded your photos onto a website, then just right click on the photo, click on properties and copy the URL address, then paste it in your reply to this thread and put

at the end - then hopefully it will appear

Sorry, that sounds long-winded, but it's easy once you get started

Good luck, I hope it works

Mandy

p.s. maybe Tonya can explain it better

 

[princessdaisy]

Thank you, Mandy! Here are some from our Dec. 06 Western cruise. My son, Riley, loves Stitch!

 

[princessdaisy]

Here are few more of my family photos (Nicole, 15, made me add Orlando to our "family"...cause she is gonna be Mrs. Bloom, you know )

 

[mandymouse]

Your photos are wonderful Steph, you have a lovely family and I hope I get an invitation when Nicole becomes Mrs Bloom

My youngest DD (Becky) and I are huge Stitch fans, this is one of my fave photos from when I celebrated my birthday at O'Hanas

and here's the girls with Stitch on Pirate night

Mandy

 

[princessdaisy]

Thank you, Mandy! your photos are so lovely and your girls are beautiful...I love the Stitch photo and the tiara is so cute What a great way to celebrate at Ohanas. My son celebrated his 5th b-day at the Lilo & Stitch character breakfast at Disneyland. We try to visit Disneyland often since we are close by in San Diego.

Tonya: What a cute family photo I love the matching shirts in your photo! what Did you make those yourself?

I am almost done with all the planning for this vacation...I just need to secure the car rental from Port to WDW. I also have to call the pet sitter to watch over my fur babies We have a pug, Daisy and chichua (sp?) puppy named Bailey. Here is a photo to share- Daisy was a "hula dog" and Bailey a "Hot Diggity Dog" for Halloween.

I should never have learned to post pictures - gonna drive you all crazy with photos

I love the pictures of the pups.

Stephanie, I agree with your daughter. I think I wrode it on an off day. It scared the cr*p out of me. I was laying in my son's lap and my step daughter was under my husband. I swore then and there never again. Also the dina-spin, not my favorite ride, talking about being sick the rest of the day and it was HE*L on my lanyard and pins.

Have a great night. I only have to work a 1/2 day tomorrow. Darn house inspections.

I think it is pretty much like that all the time, Tonya Nicole was so angry at my husband and I that she ran screaming &crying from the ride I felt so bad for her as she was only 6yrs at the time but I had no idea it was so darn scary I had my eyes shut tight the whole ride! and my hubby's hat was blown off from the Dino breath, sneeze or whatever it was!LOL!

Good luck on the inspection, Tonya!

Hi Girls

It seems that Epcot is a fave amongst us all. I love walking around World Showcase in the evening and trying different drinks from the different countries and ending up in the Rose & Crown for a sing-song

Have you got any plans for the weekend ? We haven't got any plans but we may go to a shopping centre, as the girls love 'surf shops' and like to get ideas of what they're going to buy when we get to Orlando

Tonya - I hope your inspection goes well, and enjoy your 1/2 day off

Have a great weekend

Mandy
