[bellelinus]

I cant wait to see Gaudi's work

Ditto!

 

[bellelinus]

Do you know , as Catherine Tate would say.


Not really bothered!!!!

I am on holiday from Saturday, and I am not going to be posting a lot,

Survived another day I hope, Mr. Churchill????????

 

[Disneynutinlondon]

Thanks for the info Jeanne I've passed it onto Sallie...brilliant timing ladies

 

[bellelinus]

Well, this won't help Mary Jo - but might help some future travelers:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap_travel/2...port_delays;_ylt=Aic3m92cB2m.0OLH_nXz0A_MWM0F

Yes, I saw that on the news this morning and thought about Mary Jo . . .

 

[formerCPer]

Jeanne - just to warn you

I know you put everything in 1 case .

However in Europe because of health and safety laws no one case is allowed to weigh more than 32kg (due to workers having to lift them)- even if you have the weight allowance - you will need to split it.

Helen, are you serious about this? If so, we probably need to rethink our packing strategy.

Ok

Today I picked up our Euros

Made and laminated door signs

Paid car tax that runs out end of July

Daves new CC has arrived so I should be able to finish online checkin

Daves travel insurance has come through

I am sooooooo behind.

Oh yea, especially when you get the TKTS tix for Stomp and sit in the front row, center.....

I was so close to the stage I could see the dust bouncing up and down, so I put my sunglasses on!

It was my second time for MP and now I'm totally addicted............I LOVED IT EVEN MORE!!!!!!!!!!

One of my tags indicates my love of Broadway theater!!

So do we. Although thus far we have been relegated to the touring shows. I'm convinced DD8 will be in showbiz. Maybe we'll make it to NYC on a future trip (hint, hint!).

Helen,

We are leaving on July 27.
apierce0n050501 is also leaving July 27.

We actuallly leave July 26

OK - I am going to admit it once - just once ok - I am truly on top of going slowly insane, I went and took the plunge. I have started a blog but for the life of me someone please tell me how to post the link here again - I went to the one that everyone went too but not sure if I just type in the name

OK let me try this:

http://lesrome-ingmagicalvacation.blogspot.com/

OK if I didn't do this right - someone let me know. I will now attempt to go to the trip reports and log in there too.

Laura, you are cracking me up. I can't wait to meet all of you.

I'll try to ketchup more later.

[Andrew DEREK UK]

Looks great to me!!

We are going to "chill" - maybe head to the beach. We leave our house at 4:45 on Monday am and arrive in Barcelona at 11:05 on Tues am - we will be exhausted! But, no naps, right Andrew??

Try to eat light, water only cut coffee/tea to low levels, try to sleep on flight, try not to have naps on arrival get out and about in that loverly sunshine in Spain, try to get through to 9pm ish, then crash out,

set your watch as you get on the plane to Spainsih time and eat and do everything to that.

 

[bellelinus]

So very nice! Thanks for sharing! It is all of us!

Yes, nice one, Sallie . . .

 

[kyla]

Ditto!

Ditto 3, I'm so looking forward to seeing Gaudi's work in Barcelona.

 

[salliep]

That is so perfect! Where did you find it?

I have poetry quote booklets for my scrapping pages, and I found this while looking for one for my fish extender. Mind you- I haven't packed a thing yet, but I can still post!!!!! I figure I will butter everybody up with this poem so I can go door to door with my trusty excel sheet compliments of Maryjo, and borrow a shirt here, a tube of toothpaste there, a sparkly number down the hall, Tp everywhere..... I think Ive got the best ideas!!!! Can everyone post their sizes so I know where to beg????

Brian

Hint, hint, Brian? I will extend a formal invitation as a representative of the city of New York (county of New York, borough of Manhattan): please come and visit!

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

As we begin the final count down I want to say how much fun I have had, and I hope we will continue to have. I found this poem and thought it spoke of all of us.. To all my cyber friends: Its been so much fun, and so very informative. Thanks!!!!

THE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS

We meet on-line to have a great time....
We laugh and we giggle and smile at our screens,
We sit back and wonder what this all means.

We surf the Web, we travel afar,
We span thousands of mile without a car.
We watch conversations flowing on the screen,
We tell jokes and stories and know what they mean.

What are we looking for? Where's the attraction?
How can we do this and get satisfaction?
Who are we? Why are we here?

We are "the Circle of Friends", made from a chain.
And we're here because friendship is what we gain!
Born on-line formed by few,
We had no idea just what to do.

So we are linking our pages, first one then two,
And wonder where we'll end up when we are through?
The Circle will spread, like a wild vine,
It will breathe and whisper like the winds of time.

We are the Circle of Friends, made from a chain,
All of our motives are exactly the same.



​

Very nice words

[4kittymagic]

I am hoping to make the kids a card with their names and room numbers so they will be able to find each other and maybe deliver fish gifts. Carley has already been told that she is not to disturb anyone, or go to anyone's cabin w/o permission. She has also been warned that she is not to run through the halls with her friends at any time and cause any disturbance to others.
But I know she wants to leave notes and messages for all her new friends. Please let me know if you want your child's name and room number on the list.

Post child's name /room #/ your name
Carley - 7546 (salliep)
