Land, Sea and Safari September/October 2013

[Paula Sedley-Burke]

I thought you'd decided on going?

Yes I had you are right Pam but hadn't bought tickets yet. Was going to wait till we got there in case I wasn't well enough to go. Then sort of talked myself out of it thinking in my current condition is it too much.. ( just getting over Shingles don't ask lol ) ..

Now thinking oh shucks.. In for a penny...in for a pound

Cool re the new Glow with the show Ears hat that change colors to sync in time to the fireworks shows etc. Not on sale till 15th October at Fantasmic 15th year anniversary. We will have flown home by then. Maybe next year!

I'm sorry about the shingles

The ears sound great, I wonder how they do that.

They had them this summer for World of Color. They probably have some kind of transmitter inside them that causes them to "follow along with the show".

Yeah! Got magic bands for our AKV check-in on my birthday!

This is what I selected in Fastpass..

Must be getting close! My infamous vacation booklet I produce with all the information about our stay has gone to press! Jo kindly printed it at work for us...


Here it is. Sad I know!

I put in an index ..

To give you an example of the fruits of my labour...

 

[Pinkocto]

That's an impressive book!

Thanks idle thumbs...

That book looks awesome! I did something similar for our first trip in 1997, but since then I have become so busy, I just don't have the time. Now I have a folder printed that I have a copy of our Power of Attorney for me to make medical decisions for Fran, and then I put our pages of our vacation that I have in plastic sheets in our vacation binder, in that folder. That way I only take the stuff for the most recent vacation along with us and not everything.

It's not quite a detailed as yours at least a personalized and pretty, but it has everything we need including the power of attorney. We need to get one for us for me with her having POA.

 

[franandaj]

Also I should say you have very nice design skills. everything is balanced and quite symmetrical. How would you like to try designing some things for our band? we could even pay you for it!

Ok so now we are so close I might as well sleep in my lanyard, put on my Disney bling, and wear my entire pin collection around my neck ( do not try this at home kids )


But out shopping at the weekend I got sidetracked by this amazing Christmas decoration in Costco

Jo would not let me have it 'until we get back love....' ( I think she hopes they will all be gone )

What if they are all gone... I have already pictured it on my garage roof... shucks to my disability and not being able to pick one myself whilst Jo is at work! Jo is safe for now.. But I have a plan.. ( evil Ursula laugh complete with ocean cave echo effect through digital remaster...)

 

[Pinkocto]

I had no idea they have costcos over there. Very cool. Yep, I'm sure that's exactly what she's hoping since you're always supposed to get it when you see it or they might be gone the next time

When in May? I'll be there the 9th and 17-18, pre and post cruise. A lot of friends here go in October so I've been thinking I might have to fly down to see everybody when they're there. It's only a 2 hour flight and prices are usually very reasonable. I'm happy to do that to see friends. Unfortunately can't do it this year because I already have my October schedule and no long weekends, but I'm thinking I might have to plan that in the future.

We are going 28th May - 4th June. Oh we will miss you then what a shame :-( I wanted to catch a Star Wars weekend I am a life time fan I understand based on previous years my chances are good for those dates. We go 18th - 2nd October later in the year. Our cruise is 25th Sep for 3 nights currently but as we both know it can change!
