Hi - Welcome!
I haven't been on much, just keeping up with things. Time to give my particulars!

Me - 44
DH - 44
DD - 16
DS - 13
DS - 12

We are celebrating the fact that we get to go on this cruise! My daughter turns 16 on 6/20 and my sons turn 13 and 14 on 10/20 and 10/25. My husband and I celebrate our 19th wedding anniversary on 6/11 and our 26th together anniversary in Sept. - we can celebrate those too!

We have cabins 2136 (cat 9) and 2139 (cat 10) - a bit worried about 2139, I've heard that it can be a noisey one - anyone know anything else about it?

We've been DVC members since 1996. We are using points for one of our rooms and paying for the other. We've been to DW most years since joining DVC - been to DL twice. This is our second cruise. Did a 4 day on the Magic 4 years ago.

My family is so excited about this trip! We are staying in Barcelona for 4 days before the cruise. After the cruise we are going to Paris for 4 days and Amsterdam for 3 - a whirlwind trip for sure!!

We are booked for Mysterious Palermo, Pisa, and Monaco, Monte Carlo and Eze. We also have a Palo reservation for brunch on one of the sea days - the reservation system is down right now and I can't check the date.
We have privates scheduled for Naples and Rome. I have a massage scheduled - I teach at a massage school (business class, I'm not a massage therapist) so I thought that I better check out their massages - info that I'll be able to share with my students

Well, this is way more info about me than anyone needs to know. Other than I am flexible on the lanyards and I'm not sure yet if we will participate in the grab bag - depends on what everyone decides to do - being from Montana, elk are very heavy and I'm afraid that our luggage will be over the max if we are bringing things for everyone

Hi

What a fab trip you've got planned, cruise, Paris & Amsterdam

We have been DVC members since 1999 and are using points to pay for 1 person and cash for the other.

You've made a good point about the grab bags - I was thinking that. Whilst it would be great bringing for everyone, It might be easier on the luggage if we just bring for 1 family??? We'll wait and see what everyone says.

 

[tomspixie]

Hi!

I haven't been on in months...trying to catch up with the reading...but not going well! I have missed a lot!!!!

Kidcoos3, we have a DD15 who is bringing her best friend who is 16. We also have two boys, one will turn 13 in Pompeii and one that will be 11 when we sail.


I am reading up on the lanyards and such and will let y'all know...our excursions are
Jumping Back into Eternal Rome
Pompeii, Sorrento, and Capri
Florence and Pisa
and the Perfumery in Villefranche.

We are definitely getting excited! Right now, just trying to get through the end of school. Big track meets and the start of golf!
Nice to see all the activity!

If I find the Disney font for Mac I'll see what it looks like. Or, if we are good to go as is we simply need to decide definitely on size and color(s).

Brian
Hi Brian
I have a mac- and I use the Disney font at
www.free-fonts.com/font/disney.html


Sallie

I am bookmarking this site for my scrapbooking. It has pirate fonts! I love this, thanks salliep!

I agree. I think it would be easier on the luggage to bring for one family, then no one gets left out at grab bag time. If we brought something for each family, we would have to somehow get a count and that might leave some people out if they joined in later.

Ok so far I have the following interest and vote on Lanyard and lanyard Design:
Me 9 1 and B or H
Jlawall 7 B
Eeyorelvr10 6 B
kidcoos3 5 any design
Andrew UK 4
Salliep 3 B or D
Pixie DustII 4 - 1a? and B

MaryJo 3 B or C
LynnTarrant 2 H
Sandaneli 2 any

so we are at about 96. Getting closer to 100.

Cost should be around $2.50 to $3.50 depending on what we choose. I was thinking of ordering once I get everyone's payment and bringing them to Barcelona or the DIS meetup to pass out.

There are two decisions needed, the lanyard (custom printed w/ or w/o reel or plain lanyard with custom printed reel) and lanyard design (see formerCPer's designs)
Lanyard Options:
1)1/2" custom printed lanyard with badge holder ($2.50) http://www.kennyproducts.com/Merchant2/LAN101sample3.htm
1a) Same as option 1 but adds a badge reel for about a $1. (Really, this is an add-on option) The badge reel is removable, so you can just wear it clipped to you belt or purse when you don't want to use the lanyard. We only need a minimum order of 10 blank badge reels. ($3.50) http://www.kennyproducts.com/Mercha...en=PROD&Store_Code=KPI&Product_Code=425-blank
2)plain lanyard and custom printed badge reel ($2.50): http://www.kennyproducts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=KPI&Product_Code=424

Lanyard Design Options

Note: Option C (which is not shown correctly) would be two colors - yellow print and red or white mickeys. Also, please note that Option C, F, G and H are two colors which would raise the price on the lanyards by $0.50 each. So if you vote for Lanyard #1 it would cost $3.00 each instead of $2.50 each.


Vote so far:
Lanyard: 1- 1, 1a- 1
Lanyard design:
A
B - 8
C - 3
D - 1
E
F
G
H - 3
Any - 3

If anyone want to change their vote or narrow it down to one design choice, please let me know since if you chose two designs, I counted them both.

 

[kyla]

I decided to vote for B or H. That Italian flag is starting to look good.

 

[formerCPer]

Morning,
Don't mean to muddy the waters, but collaboration and refinement often result in a better product. With that in mind I have posted some new designs that incorporate the Disney font and most popular color schemes thus far. Plus one in black to mimic the CC lanyard. The font worked better than I thought. Still haven't mastered the HTML code, so here is the link...

Again, this is built using the one-half inch lanyard.

Brian, just add a

to the back end and wa la!

 

[kyla]

OMG, great work!
Now its getting harder to choose a design. Guess we need to re-vote.

They are beautiful, but could we be in for a copyright problem?? We could not get a hat printed with Disney in that style print. Best to be sure.

 

[Iowazipcode]

Thanks for all the hard work.. The designs are great!

I vote for lanyard #1, lanyard design E.

---- Barb

 

[salliep]
