So there is a ? I had.....is the stuff they give you on the ship any good? do they give you new bottles every day like they do in hotels? my hair gets really dry with salt water so I need heavy duty conditioner......

I want to know too. My hair is frizzy if I don't use the right conditioner.

Gaylean, I would definitely bring your own conditioner. The stuff they give you is fine for "daily" use, but if you need a serious conditioner, it's not going to cut it. I have super curly/frizzy hair, also (I've had it "japanese straightened" so you might not really notice) and I have to use Humectess to keep it tamed down.

I am totally out of the loop. I am just now trying to get organized for the trip. Not sure my posts are getting on either. Hope I will be able to find other posters on the ship. I just mostly lurk on the boards. less than 3 weeks now!!!

Check the first post of the thread for some info on where to find us.

Do you all realize in just a few couple days we will be able to say....


JUST TWO WEEKS AWAY!!!

 

[gaylean93]

Wow, I don't even remember this! This is not the view I had at all!

I decided to have the boys wear their captain outfits for semi-formal night, as opposed to wearing it a random night AND bringing suits. Seems so much easier. I can't TELL you all how much more relaxed I am having all the boys stuff packed (except their PJs, socks, undies, and non-clothes). I have to order one new captain outfit for my 10 year old. And the most exciting news: all the tuxes still fit!! I have to let the hem out of the oldest, but other than that - good to go! I think I will go on line to order DH's tuxes in the next day or so. Sometimes I write these posts and think...these people don't care about all this!! But then I think...I love reading their plans. Good to find other OCD people out there that have been planning this cruise for 15 months and now are suddenly in a state of panic because we don't have enough time!!! So I know you all can relate when you get something checked off that list...doesn't it feel great!

Hi Lisa:

I can certainly relate to what you are saying. We have hardly started anything for the cruise, no packing at all has been done so we are certainly starting to panic.

Please PM me about the Secret Mickey event. You had thought you might be interested in doing it but weren't sure if you would have your boys as one or each one individually.

Take care.

 

[MrsMork]

Ummmm... Ebay???? I'm sure if you give her some of the new stuff...she'll like trying it...

She is 5 and it is not the lotion she loves, it is the Minnie packaging.

Last call for anyone interested in the Secret Mickey event. It works the same as a Secret Pal gift exchange. I am organizing this for adults and children. Please PM me if you are interested or would like more information. It is sure to be great fun for all those involved.

I too loved all the minnie stuff... I'm just a sucker for all of that... Maybe we can find something fun for her during the trip...

We will be heading on our roadtrip to take my mom to my brother's tomorrow. It is a 4 hour drive each way, so we will be gone early morning to late evening. We packed a bunch of Thanksgiving stuff in my car to take to my niece. We are passing the Thanksgiving torch to her and her DH so they get all the plates, bowls, silverware, glasses, crockpots, coffee urn, tables, chairs , etc that goes with it. It will help empty out our garage when we get it all moved to their house. Tomorrow will be a start. I hope to send more when my brother brings my mom back on the 29th.

Hey, I found some shampoo from my med cruise. Souveniers ya know..I'll try it tomorrow and report back to you all...

 

[MrsMork]

The potential buyers from CA did fly up and look at our property today. I am really trying to not get my hopes up, but....I really HOPE this is the right person.
