Man, does it take a long time to catch up on almost two days.

Going to bed now.

Good night!

No kidding, about the time I catch up just from yesterday, I'll have to sign off and go back to work.

 

[Mom323]

I have the today show on and the guest just said you should flip your mattress every 3 months .....does anyone do that??

Twice a year for us, when I do Spring and Fall cleaning.

 

[nanatink]

I remember when she married Jeff Martin. How long ago was that?
DON'T ANYONE ANSWER!!!

I know, but I will never tell.

Someone on this thread posted that DePalm had bad reviews. Was it Liligator?

not me!

Twice a year for us, when I do Spring and Fall cleaning.

No kidding I went to bed last night woke up and found pages to catch up on I don't want to ignore my kids (they are upstairs doing crafts) so I'm heading off to spend sometime with them...I'll try and peek in in a couple of hours...go easy on me Hope not too many pages when I get back.

Questions though:
I've asked Jackie twice but never wrote it down....

what rental car company picks up at the port?

we need to start making plans on getting home we are about a six hour drive from DL

My wife and I will be joining all of you on this cruise too.

Only three months and three weeks to go!

Jason

Welcome!

 

[GatorFamily]

Yes welcome to the new DISers....so many coming out to talk now that its getting closer. Just wait until after final payment is due I won't be able to keep up

Unfortunately IASW will be done for refurb while we are there. I beleive it is down until sometime in November. It's getting a much needed "facelift" and some fresh paint as I understand it.

Wow. It just had a complete refurb. I wish they would quit shutting it down for such a long time every fall. We met on that ride and at our anniversary it is always down for refurb. I wish they would do things like Walt used to. Everything was refurbed EVERY NIGHT. I know a lot of folks think it is a pretty cheesy ride, but it's certainly special to us. LOL.

Oh.....Ang just explained that it is being redone so the boats don't drag bottom, since we, as a society, are all 'heavier' now. It's all of those Cruises. How are they going to fit the Magic in the Small World Ride ?
I do remember it dragging quite a bit when we rode it last May. I had to bail on my side.

 

[Mom323]

OK, DE PALM ISLAND BEACH GETWAY IN ARUBA IS OUT. Bad reviews.


If I need a back up plan, it will be Palm Beach (probably the Radisson) done on my own. A taxi to the Radisson is $10 per taxi (not per person) and will hold 5 people. Monica....I'm still interested in SNUBA as first choice.

OK...now I'm really hungry and really leaving.....

Here's the scoop, It wasn't Liligator.

Angie,

What a great picture!!!

The one of you and DrHug is fantastic as well!!

Karen

Why Thank You. Brack took the one of Angie and me. He's a DIS friend from a couple of previous cruises, for those who don't know him. He is a great Photographer also.

I am going to tell you guys something gross I found out yesterday. Frank lives all by himself in a pretty big house in Arlington VA, right outside the District of Columbia. He has two kitchens in the house.

Last night he told me that before he got sick, his refridge in the kitchen on the lower floor had broken. He forgot to tell us. He says there is food in it. He asked me to go to his house today and clean it out......OH YUCK!! 8 weeks...I told him we will have to throw the refridge out....and he said fine.

I am going there today to find out what is there.

OOOh. Good Luck. Yowza ! Take some Vick's Vapo Rub to dab under each nostril. It works.

that's one I have never heard before. Learn something new on the DIS everyday!

We're going to watch Pirates 2 tonight and 3 tomorrow night. We saw 1 again on Christmas Eve I think, so that can wait until next time.

My DSIL and I saw Pirates 3 on the Magic, during the storm. The battle scenes were really something. So realistic. How does Disney do that?

 

[lillygator]

I love POTC3!! They have been overplaying Dean Man's Chest on the movie channels lately.

 

[DrHug]

that's one I have never heard before. Learn something new on the DIS everyday!

Something I learned from an old Coroner.

Oh my-good luck! My MIL was on vacation for 8 weeks and her water heater broke, we believe at the beginning of her trip. The flow of water blew her electrical so the fridge had rotten food in it. It was awful...we ended up not even opening it (there was stuff leaking out of it) and just having it thrown away. It was awful and not salvageable. So, I feel for you my dear, that's just adding salt to the wound. Hang in there!

Just thought I'd introduce our travelling companion - Gordon T Gopher:

On a flight to Orlando - with his own seat for once (usually he travels in the hold!).

At the Hyatt MCO.

In his Disney Magic stateroom.

On his balcony.

 

[LiserAnn3]

Thanks for the heads up. I'm sorry you had so much to go through. How frustrating for you. Has any one from the Dis gotten back to you?

Nope, I'm thinking that account is gone for good. I just hope no one from our past cruise tries to get in contact with me. Oh well....

Welcome Jason! Are you a member of the American Legion? I am just catching up on the boards, so you may have already answered that somewhere down the line.
