Mr. McAlpin, or someone who works for him, just opened and read my email. We will see what kind of response comes back.

we have no plans here either, since the zip line was full in the morning and no pirate boat. What do to what do to????

Are you a won't book outside excursion person? I'd book the zipline on your own. If you really don't want to do that then go check cruisecritic. I think you can walk or take a short cab ride to the Krystal Resort and that they have stopped charging for day use. You could enjoy the pool and beach, the massages there come recommended and are probably a 1/4 of what DCL charges, have some lunch and walk back to the ship.

I am really happy! He keeps talking about it all the time since he saw the video on the computer I was watching. He is four and is just getting more bold in the things he is willing to do. He has seen me looking at Disney Cruise stuff a lot lately so he knows something is up. He keeps asking if we can go on Disney cruise line tomorrow. I say no not tomorrow later. He says ok but he asks again the very next day. I think this will be repeated daily until we go on the cruise.

Yup, he'll ask every day! We went through that our last 2 cruises. So last year we made a paper link chain for the number of days left and he got to rip one off every day. That way he could see how many days were left. Worked great!

I'm still in the lifeboat. Did everyone get a room besides me?

We're still in the lifeboat too!! We're waiting on 2 rooms, so we may be in it for awhile!!!

Did anyone else get the 18th for tea? 17th for brunch?

No, 18th for brunch. Wanted 17th for our wedding anniversary.

 

[HollyTyler]

good morning...well, my car seems worse. I could not go over 35....took me a long time to get across town!
I guess I am going to have to bite the bullet and trade it in.

Oh, this can be so frustrating! Sorry about the car troubles. Sucks.

 

[tigger137]

Just sent off my email, though not sure how good it is. Kept calm though wanted to slap him with a fish!(Ok, I know it isn't his fault!!!!!)

Of course it is. The buck stops with him!

 

[HollyTyler]

Thanks for everyones info about the online check in. Guess I have some more work to do in the upcoming weeks.

As well, here are the pics I "promised" of the snowfall here today.

Earlier this morning out my front door - doesn't look too bad at this distance...

My backyard showing the drift up against the "badly needs painting" fence and the swingset. Those swings aren't going anywhere right now.

My "shoveled" driveay.

The view down my street from my front door.

Another shot of the backyard.

And a couple of shots to really see how the snow is falling

I'll have to head out and about today and see about taking some shots around town with this snowfall.

When is Global Warming supposed to get here??

BRRRRRR!!! That's WAY too much snow! Yucky!

If the response does not address any specifics from my email then I will shoot back another one. Thank you for your response, but.....

 

[ibouncetoo]

did everyone do the online check in as well?

Soon....after fish recovery.

NO where near Chicago,but I do have a friend who works for an advertising company in Chicago (but unfortunately she's not going on the cruise). !

Oh...which one (you can PM me the answer if you want)? We (my team-mate and I) work with the Chicago ad agencies!

The Princess tea was for the boys too! They had some of the Prince there too.

Oh....princes.... I get 'dibs' on Phillip...he's my favorite!

I'm still in the lifeboat. Did everyone get a room besides me?

Nope....still in the lifeboat.

I've always felt like I married a prince because he treats me like a queen. I think it's time he got a crown.

Oh....sweet!

Boy, those snow pictures bring back the memories.....SO GLAD I'm not living in that anymore, though.

Holly - how are you and Tyler this morning?

We're well past the throwing up stage, fever has been gone since yesterday morning, but now the cough & sore throat is much worse. It's so horrible sounding. But he's eating a bit now. Since it had been almost 24 hours since he threw up, I agreed when he asked for a poptart. He only ate about 3/4 of it, but that's fine. Then at lunch he had a little mac & cheese. The kid is drinking milk like crazy though.

We even ventured out because I wanted to get Vicks, Mucinex, jello to try the jello drink, and a couple other things. Quick trip to Walgreens down the road. Trying to get him to take a nap with no luck. I'm assuming he'll just crash at some point. Not sure how long he should stay out of school though.

Oh, I forgot to say:

Good job with the e-mail, Angie. Very well done!

DITTO!

So Tyler's dad had to miss work today because he's really sick now too. I'm sure stepmom will be next, but I'm surprised I'm not feeling anything yet. Well, my dad always tells me "Mom's aren't allowed to get sick. It's against the law!" That's about right!

Not here. Oregon, far from Chicago. BUT we do have DIS friends in Chicago that are not going on this cruise.

Hi We are from Scottish and I am afraid I don't know anyone will be on this Cruise but last cruise at Med July 07, that there were few Chicago, Crissup was a lovely family and I got keyring from them

Is this just for CC members or can anyone do it? I ask because I have my aunt in uncle in tow and they are pretty much letting me do everything for them as they are completely lost. They aren't CC members and we (ok me) are booking their excursions at the 75 day (Yippee I get to do the excursion thing all over again!!). So I was just wondering if I can do their's too then it might be easier just to do it all at once online. On the same note, even if I can't do theirs, it might make my life easier to do mine online and then help them with theirs at the port.

I think it is no problem this time as it will be few first times as my friend as their first time well.

I'm always quiet!!

Did anyone else get the 18th for tea? 17th for brunch?

Nope, I want to have high tea in first week, never got it as I took the last day on 23 or 24 May at 3 pm, I am thinking to cancel it cos dont like the time too close for my meals at early sitting.

Got the Brunch Palo at 11 am I am happy with it. It is on 24 May last day to filling up no worries about clothes

Hope you had a lovely weekend.

Just sent off my email, though not sure how good it is. Kept calm though wanted to slap him with a fish!(Ok, I know it isn't his fault!!!!!)

I don't blame you.

Oh my god, that was so beautifil photos, mmmm BRRRRRRRRRRR also lots of work well, In my home, of course Scotland don't have like that.

Great pictures Ken.

This was our house almost EXACTLY a year ago - Valentine's day 2007, and I hear your snow is on the way . . .

Not very much snow this year, lots of rain. Maybe we got the global warming?

Your house is so beautiful, remind me of Dallas JR house Sorry!!

Here is the email I sent this morning.

We will see if I get a response.

Good for you

Which friend? Pam is the one who works for the Chicago Ad agency.

I guess she works for one called EnergyBDDO, at least that is what her work e-mail is. She is more my wife's friend but we all hung out in high school.
