Good Night Marilyn, sweet Mickey dreams and then off to your adventure.

I'm tired now. It's been a busy day. I'm going to call it quits and take a little nap. I still have three more days to do the last minute things and the carry on bag. I'm doing great.

For those of you taking your laptop:

This is my first time traveling without mine and I'm worried about the number of pictures I take. I always uploaded my pics from my camera to laptop every day. If I bring a bunch of CDs, along with the thingy that hooks up to the computer where I put my camera card into, will somebody please let me come to your cabin & use your laptop for a couple minutes every other day or so to clear out my camera? Please, pretty please? Buying extra SD cards just isn't in the budget right now, but I have a bunch of extra CDs lying around to do this.

Thanks in advance!

Holly, we'll have our iBook and a card reader that reads every memory card in the universe, include those from the Orion Galaxy.

You can always burn a CD with our iBook.

I would like to bring my laptop but I need a bag === they are expensive!

You could wear the laptop as an accessory. Start a new trend. Quelle Chic!

Just wanted to wish you all a wonderful time. Looking forward to reading some trip reports on your return. DH and I were supposed to be on this cruise but had to cancel. Oh well. We'll be on the shoreline at Jetty Park waving "bon voyage" to all on Saturday!

 

[iankh]

The bags are packed and we're ready to go. ...

I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn
The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so ready for this cruise I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
16 days and I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I pity you can't go

 

[iankh]

Wow... that was SO good!!!! I think maybe I'll fit that into my schedule on the 16th..

Does this ship go through the Panama Canal? I thought we were going to Hoboken.

I am so cheesy...I love Britney's new cd....but remember, she was on MMC when I wsa younger!! as was Justin - love him too!

 

[ragdoll]

ok, so pack the sword?

Weird story...on one of our recent cruises a DISer had a plastic sword confiscated when boarding. He had to go buy one onboard. True story, but makes absolutely no sense.

Anybody changing planes in Atlanta on Friday morning?

We arrive in Atlanta at 11:48 in the morning and don't depart until 2:30 PM.

Ok, everyone I did a really simple website for Friends and Family to bookmark that will give itinerary and webcam links. It is not password protected, check it out and pass it on to friends, family and classrooms. Anything that would be cool to add, let me know

PJ, great site. Sent it to family and friends. I only wish we had an idea of what the times were for the Panama Canal to tell them. I wonder if it will be close to the same as 2005?

Holly, we will have ours and you are more than welcome to use it.

Must get to bed. Important day tomorrow you know!!!

Marilyn, in case I don't get on before you leave have a safe trip and will see you at the terminal.

Annette Funicello (sp?) was on MMC when us OG's used to watch. Never did understand the fascination with Britney or Justin. Maybe it's just an OG thing.

My last WW meeting for the month of May today! Almost on vacation (if it weren't for the other 5 days of work this week).

We arrive at MCO late on Friday and are staying at the Hyatt in the airport.

Any volunteers to bring us our coffee and hot cocoa?

 

[gydell]

We arrive in Atlanta at 11:48 in the morning and don't depart until 2:30 PM.

We'll be gone by then! I thought that maybe someone would be on our flight. You'll be able to have lunch.

 

[lillygator]

Oh I love Madonna....I am on youtube watching old Britney videos....she is soo pretty. What the heck happened to her? I like her songs, never thought she was a good singer but I like her stuff.

 

[readyalready]

Has anyone else not even started packing? I started a pile for DS which has now been buried in other laundry, I can't believe so many are done!

 

[lillygator]

MTV is not what it was when I was in HS so I watch videos via youtube!

 

[TADsMommy]

Hi all ...

Just wanted to make a quick check-in ... cannot stop packing!!

So far I have ALMOST packed the kids (a few things are in the dryer to be added)

We have just finished making up goodie bags FOR ALL OF YOU!! We have some to distribute on SailAway, Tropical Night and Pirate Night ... arrrgh

I am going to do the "household" stuff next (night lights, extension cords, overthedoor holders) ... then costumes (for Pirate and Mexico) ... then finally will "start" to pack dh and myself.

Hope you all are having lots of fun thinking about where we will be this time next week ... having just enjoyed a FABULOUS MOTHER'S DAY on CASTAWAY CAY!!

Fun, Fun, Fun

Back at the dance comptition.
Back on the Blackberry

Yesterday, Gretchen did great. She got one gold medal and three High gold medals.

YEAH GRETCHEN! Good job!

Should I bother packing the ponchos just in case we ride Splash Mtn at either park of Grizzly River at DL?

NO..BUY NEW ONES AT DL!

All bags are closed - 1 problem - I packed our travel clothes! Now I have to find something else for us to wear since I will not open the bags!

I'm having trouble deciding on my travel outfit. I want a lime green top for Friday night, but the only one I have now is something I want to save for dinner as it's a little dressier. Maybe when I pop over to Walmart (YES, need more airborn (type thing) and batteries and dental picks) I'll take a peek at the clothes.

Just wanted to wish you all a wonderful time. Looking forward to reading some trip reports on your return. DH and I were supposed to be on this cruise but had to cancel. Oh well. We'll be on the shoreline at Jetty Park waving "bon voyage" to all on Saturday!

We'll be looking for you!

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
16 days and I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I pity you can't go

Hair is cut, feet are preety (OPI Flashbulb Fuchsia), camera has fresh batteries and the obligatory pedicure picture to start out the new memory card is taken, toiletries updated (had a mess of expired stuff). Just have to decide on travel and embarkation outfit. THEN see if it all goes in the bags!

...back to it.....

No, but I've got something else for you, mister.........






















YOUR LAYNARDS. Since you get in so late, shall I give them to Monica? Are you doing the DCL bus with her/them? I'll be in the lobby at 8:30A SHARP meeting my limo group also.

I have a friend who, a while ago, was a HUGE brittney fan. She really wanted to go to her vegas concert. So I bought tix for her to go. She and I flew down to vegas, we had sound check tix and got goody bags. We sat right next to the stage..right next to Jon Voight (angelinas daddy). I got beer in line with Ray Romano and we saw so many other famous people, including Justin (they were dating then). This was the HBO performance. So if you watch the video and know what we look like you can see us alot. It's pretty cool to us, but you have to know who you are looking for. She totally lip synched most of her performance, but she was on! About 8 months later she came to Oakland with the same show and she was tired and drained. It was nothing like the vegas show even though it was exactly the same show.
