May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves! Stealing the Magic..AGAIN!!! Panama Canal FL to CA!!! Part 2

[Making_Memories]

OK I would be willing to put myself in charge of lanyards if nobody else is doing that yet. I can front the money to purchase them then either sell to you all at cost or do a donation type thing where people chip in til the balance is paid. So a few questions.

What colors would you all like it in?
What would be a good saying to have imprinted on it?
Would you all want a DIS "badge" too or just the lanyard?
I kind of like the idea of making badges complete with pictures. Would be cool imo. Could make them like the cast wears with dis name and our home location.
I could mail them out to you all from home if that would work for everyone. Someone had mentioned $5 but even custom ones with nice hardware is still under $5 each.
Any other suggestions?

You can either reply in the thread or by sending me a PM. I am off the boards to head out to do a little retail therapy and shall return to the dis sometime after 9:30 pm and read any suggestions.

We want to stalk too. I guess we should start calling you the pied piper of acapulco.

Large group at LaPerla's, Closer to the date I'll take a head count and get ressies.

 

[lillygator]

well our Freshman are hanging in there against a ranked team.....wish they could pull it off.


Gydell....what time are you guys planning on doing the cliff divers?

I think Nineteen minutes has one of the attorney's from the Perfect Match in it. I liked it but the ending left me with so many questions. I also finished Perfect Match....

yep, same guy I've read most of her books (ecluding Mercy, Song of the Humpback Whale, and Harvesting the Heart) gotta say my two favorites were Keeping the Faith (the little girl is talking to God) and Salem Falls. She has a new book coming out on 3/4 "Change of Heart". Think that'll have to get read on the cruise!


btw- Today I learned how to properly wash my hands. Who knew I'd been doing it wrong all this time?

London? England?

No, London, Ontario
I just tried searching out fares from them, but they don't fly to London, so it would have to be Detroit or Toronto. Cheapest I got was $182. With a shuttle it won't be much cheaper than a flight at $300 with another airlines that at least gets me right home. I'll keep checking though, thanks for giving me another option

 

[lillygator]

Kari - how did they teach you? That was in my orientation class to the hospital!

 

[nskjerven]

Add my little family to the mix, and we probably would just be completely invisible!!!

oh yeah, you and 4 boys no one would even see you...

I mentioned before that I went to see the movie Juno and liked it a lot, I also mentioned I don't like horror or violent movies. So...it's girl's night out tomorrow, and we're seeing Sweeney Todd Has any one seen this yet, I know it got good reviews...and I love Johnny Depp...but am I going to be able to take my hands off my face to peek out at him at all

Kathe

Monica, this all sounds sooooo familiar. I have dealt with depression most of my life but nobody ever put a name to it, even the therapists I saw (so many years ago they probably didn't think it was an illness). Any way I had a lot of close deaths to deal with in the last several years and just kept plugging along. Last March I started having Panic Attacks for the first time and knew that it was time to do something.

Now I am seeing a therapist and trying to find the right dosage of meds. Like you, my favorite thing in the world, going to WDW didn't hold a lot of interest for me and we went twice in September.

I am also finding it difficult to do the little things but am getting better too and making myself do them. I find that when I do I end up feeling better.

Glad to know that there are others out there who understand what this is all about. Sometimes you feel kind of alone and foolish for feeling the way you do.

Any way, sorry about the downer but it is nice to be able to talk about it.

Carol

Carol I have been dealing with depression and panic attacks for almost 21 years. It is a terrible thing to have to deal with and you sometimes do feel like you are the only one. Panic attacks are the worst as you just feel like you are having a heart attack, at least I do. When mine first started I would get so scared and of course that only made them worse. I look back and there is a whole year of my life that is a total blur due to depression and panic attacks. Jan and Feb are my worst months every years.

I think there are more people that suffer from this than we would believe. I have found that everyone has a story, nothing ever is what it seems.

Hi there!
I am coordinating renting jeeps on the island. There is a rental facility at the port and for the day - depending on how many we need - it will be around $75including everything. My plan was to be off the ship early, tour to all the major sites and then end the day at one of the beaches. Anyone can feel free to break away at any point. Aruba is relatively small and not all that much chance of getting lost.

Is that per person or per jeep?

in my research last night, I was studying the excursions. I sure wish they had a nice printout that listed all the info side by side....but,

In PV - as far as DCL excursions go..this is what we are limited to with our age group:
Paradies Beach Adventure $178
Las Caletas Hideaway $268
Pirate Boat Sail and Snorkel $270
PV City Tour $120
Historic Towns and Tequila Making $158


I really want to go to Chico's Paradise and a beach...the Las Calentas looks great too. John is hesitant to rent a jeep and go off on our own. But I am working on that. I am so sure the girls would love the historic tour and the complimentary shots of tequila. IDK....I have read now that you can't get to Las Caletas without doing a tour...I am not sure if that is true.

Monica, I am glad you are doing better and great job on the bike!

V, you're kidding right?

 

[lillygator]

wow, just wow...these freshman are hanging in there...what a three@!!!!

 

[lillygator]

V, you're kidding right?

no way, shooters are a weekend thing here!



























JUST KIDDING! I think it's nuts that there is no liability bringing all ages to a tequila factory but all else....

For those of you flying Airtran check your prices, the fares went a little lower today. I got $10 credit on my dh's flight to MCO.

I thought that Airtran will not let you make a change if the fare becomes lower. At least that's the way it was. Have they changed this policy?
