No one has talked about the $$$$ ... I am guessing we will end up with about 20 playing - but as many as sign up can play - so don't let that worry you!! - if we do $10, that would make the pot $200!! There are 4 cash prizes - Most Buncos, Most Wins, Most Losses and a random drawing to get your money back from those who do not win $$$ or baby bunco!!

I was thinking we should play Monday after Castaway Cay - first day at sea - what do you guys think? What time?

I'm cool with $10. But I'd suggest not trying to do it the first sea day...maybe a little bit later in the trip, when we need a diversion , like one of the times we have two sea days in a row (13th/17th/18th?). Also mid-afternoon, after folks would be done with possibly conflicting Palo reservations. Just my suggestion.

I am up for whatever the group wants!! I was thinking about the first day at sea...because you get to know each other during Bunco.....you gossip the whole time....and then we would feel more comforatble with each other for the rest of the trip......

That being said....any day is fine and I think Mid afternoon would be perfect!!

This is totally off topic

We are getting a Noreaster here on the East Coast. I do not know if you have ever seen the power of a Noreaster. Winds are like a hurricane. Anyway, the Chesapeake Bay Bridge is closed as an 18-wheeler truck overturned on the bridge from the storm right now.

We cross the bridge a lot to go to our second home in Bethany Beach DE. This webcam shows you live the ocean (about 1 block from our house). The ocean looks so angry this morning!

Well, hello everyone! I would love to get to know you all better but have pretty much given up. I just can't keep up with you all. Since this is only my third post in over 300 pages I am guessing that maybe I will be posting about every hundred pages or so.

We are so snowed in here! We have gotten at least a foot and a half since yesterday. Call me crazy but I LOVE the snow. It is beautiful. Since DD is home from work today I will not have to babysit DGD's all day and may be able to post a bit. We will see...

Happy Valentine's Day!

Disneylover, we were posting at the same time. The snow is beautiful but dangerous! Everyone in our area has been advised to stay in. All schools and most businesses are closed. We haven't had a storm this bad since 1978. Take care!

Some of us are hoping to do a private brunch at Palo's on the first sea day. So if we are going to play bunco, may we play in late afternoon after brunch?

By the way, my name is spelled Birkner, not Brinkner

I vote for $10 and Tuesday afternoon. Still early in the cruise to get to know each other, and also gives us one day to have concentrated family time on the ship (unless of course I'm on the Palo list for Monday!). This is for 18 years and up? Lisa

I am so sorry, spelling has never been my strong point

I have corrected it.

Any day is fine with me.....I am hoping I am on your list for Palo Bruch. I think whatever day we decide to play, late afternoon seems to be favored time.

What does everyone else think?

Happy Valentines Day!!!

Sorry I missed out on doing the roll call and update yesterday but we had a heck of a microburst in my area. We got hail the size of regular to bigger marbles for about 2 hours, along with wind and thunder and lightning...and of course, we lost power. This morning there is still hail all around the house and it is now windy and cold.

So onwards and upwards!!

Roll Call - Slowing down now, apparently we are being just exclusive enough to attract only the right sort of thieves

Update - Want to play Bunko on the ship? PM Disneylover5 with your info


Round Up -

Holly Taylor has the sweetest son...enjoy him now, it won't last, but hey you probably have a few more good years before he decides you have the plague every time you try to hug him!!

BUNKO or BUNCO??? Does it matter? DOD and martinis and munchies and dice and prizes??? All for $5 or $10 per person??? I am so there!!! Also, do we want to plan on more than one game day?

Snow and hail and bitter cold...yep..sounds like global warming to me...

Did anyone notice that the tickers changed from 15 months to 14 months XX days???

Don't forget to by trip insurance by today for those pre-existing conditions and order those passports...you will have to have them when you make your final payment!!!

Are we there yet??

I heard about all that wacky weather on the news. We got none of it. I thought they were tslking about another state at first.

Hey Donna!

We're just an hour South of you in Canton. We got about 10 inches at my house. Manageable if you are careful. Three of us from Ohio - all braving this winter storm!
