They are. However, give them some time and I am sure they will post their plans at some time. I know last time it ended up being alot bigger project than anticipated and I think they are still trying to figure out how to handle it this time.


Oh lordy, I can't imagine doing a project that involved for a group this big! Maybe they could chair a COMMITTEE for that project.

I'll be wracking my brain trying to think of something simple that would be a little treat for my cruise mates. I have a LOOOONG HOT SUMMER coming up, and indoor craft projects are a good idea when it's 110 degrees out!
 
Thanks...I'm not in terrible, awful, I wish I could curl up and sleep until DH comes home on Tuesday shape...THAT would be bad. Just gonna go to bed and sleep whatever it is off.

Get to pick up our Marine tomorrow afternoon for the rest of the weekend! Yeah!! He and his buddy eat so much and are so grateful, I've been on a baking binge (maybe...I'm allergic to the kitchen?). Don't know if everything turned out ok, but the kidlets are happy and the house smells good!

Carolyn, draggin' her sorry behind off now

Feel better my friend :wizard: :sick: :flower3: pixiedust: please extend a huge hug to the Marine and the little ones. We are sad we will miss them this weekend. But I must admit, it will be a reason to come soon!

Another day of horseback riding yesterday, just awesome. I believe my little buckskin has a huge thing for Mrs. Woody!

Love the fish extenders! Thanks to (SEAULATER) who posted the link to the photos. I was wondering about them. Very cute...

Did some crafting last night before dinner with our pals the Woody's. I even made some cards! :yay:

Thanks also to PJ (my name sake) and Laura (auntybrat) for the wonderful design and implementation of the website. It's amazing, sorry for the 2 pm's Laura - dumb bunny that I am didnt' see the 2nd page for ROLL CALLS and I thought you forgot about us! I should have known better eh?

WELCOME to all the new folks who are showing up. This is going to be a cruise of a lifetime!!!
 
I am on MED July 28th. I started getting more excited about this cruise than the MED......but this morning, I am working on booking hotels over in Barcelona and all of a suddden I can not wait to go......I think they site said it is 167 days till the MED!!!

I finished all my med stuff (going 6/16) before I booked this cruise. I wanted to make sure I knew the cash I needed to commit before I put 1k down on the repo. I'll give you tips when I get back.

SFO - Orlando
United has a direct 1:05pm flight on Friday, arriving in at 9:30pm - I think that is what we will do. Kids in school Friday AM, arriving the night before so no worries.

sounds good..thanks for the tip

Checked out the Ship of Thieves website....GRATE job ladies! :thumbsup2 I can't wait till we fill it with brillent information and helpful hints.

I DID make purchases at the craft store yesterday (see my tag under avatar) and I DID make something too! Got to play with my friend's water color CRAYONS...I'd only ever used water color pencils before.

Here's a mini-trip report from my adventure yesterday with fellow Ship of Thieves cruisers:

Had so much fun yesterday with TiggersPal and my DBil and Woody73 and his DW! (You guys are going to have so much fun with them when you meet them next year.) The day started early as I picked up Mrs.Woody and we went craft shopping and even got a 'backstage' tour at Stampotique and saw how they make rubber stamps. The couple who own the store actually make all the stamps for several designers. Then we met the rest of the gang at Bahama Breeze for a long, chatty lunch on the enclosed porch. After that meal 'settled' we headed over to the stables for some time on the ponies. Mrs.Woody is a natural and my brother in law's horse just loved her! Then everyone flew home to clean up and we met back at the Woody's resort for a couple of hours of crafting and a late dinner. It was a great day!:thumbsup2 And, man-o-man, did I sleep in this morning! ::yes::
 
I added the logo - test post to see if it works! Thanks, Lisa
 
Ok, the website set up asked which e-mail I wanted to use, so I chose my normal one, but it sent everything to my .mac e-mail which I never use, thank you for telling me that you sent photos, I found them and I am adding them to the pages, will sort after I get them on.

I agree, the websit is gorgeous !! thanks for all your hard work ladies!!!
 
My local dollar store has fish extenders, but they are orange and brown, ewwww!

Yep, that was the best part. It seemed like everytime you came back to your stateroom there was a new "surprise" in your fish extender. I have a box of goodies with my Panama Canal Cruise stuff. Used some of it in my scrapbook.

The funny thing was my mom got more into it than I did. Everytime we returned to our stateroom she had to look at what I got to see if she got one in her fishmail too. It was pretty funny. One time I got something and she didn't and she was so disappointed, so I gave it to her.

Alot of the little surprises were themed. So on tropical night, someone left a little tropical gift, pirate night a pirate gift and so on.

Of course, as Tony said, it was all voluntary. But it was so fun getting "fish mail" everyday!

Our girls got TOO into it. They thought we brought enough stuff to put in the extenders every day! Kept asking to go "feed the fish"!

Thanks and will do...heading out now. Sounds like you had a great day yesterday. Surly will call, if he's not totally swamped!

Ok, have to know, was Woody crafting, too? If so, do you have photographic proof??

WOW! Had about 12 pages to read to get caught up. Too busy at work yesterday to be here much. Then speed dating event after work. This is the 3rd one I've been too and have had lots of fun each time, but this was the best one ever! Despite being a total flop because almost nobody showed up (it wasn't really advertised, so there were only 5 women and 3 men), it turned out great because we all decided to just hang out as a group afterwards! And one guy in particular was chatting with only me all evening, so keep your fingers crossed that I hear from him soon! :cool1:

So now I'm going to try to check out the new website before picking Tyler up from his dad's. I'm taking him to Monster Truck Nationals tonight, but after that, I'll be looking forward to checking in here after he's in bed to see what great DIS topics I missed today!

 
Help, I can't find it, can someone email it to me? My DH will love to see it!!

scillacc@yahoo.com

Also, WHAT THE HECK IS A FISH EXTENDER????????
Aren't fish as long as they need to be?
 
I have been looking for flights and I can't really find anything from Oak/SF to orlando that gets in decent on saturday. I'm willing to take a red eye, but they all have stops. We should post if we see good deals...what am I saying of course we'll post when we see good deals. :rotfl2:
Steph

Since the flights are not out for May 2008, I think all you can do is guess at this point. I am flying in December 20, 2007 from SFO to MCO United Flight 292, departs SFO at 1:05 PM arrives MCO at 9:21 PM. The return 1/06/08 is on United Flight 295 which departs SFO 8:00 AM arrives MCO 10:44 AM for $387.30. I used miles to upgrade both ways.

Hope this helps.

So the other day, out of the blue, Tyler asked me, "Mom, do the Disney characters sleep on the ship too?" Despite wanting to say, "No, they are flown in and out each dy by helicopter", I assured him that I'm sure they have a place to sleep onboard. He asked, "But do their rooms look just like the people rooms?" I told him I've seen pictures of the rooms the crew stay in and that they're really small compared to what the passengers stay in, so I assume the characters sleep where the crew sleep. :confused3 Not quite sure how to answer that one! He informed me, "Well, one time at the kids club, the teachers took us somewhere and when we walked down the hall, they told us we had to be really quiet because we were walking past Captain Hook's room and he's grouchy if he gets woken up!" :rotfl2: Funny that he's never told me that before, but 5 months later it just pops up!

That is so cute.
