May 12, 2007 -- Taking the Magic to the Mediterranean -- 14 day Repo Cruise! Part 2

[DizzneyDAnn]

Silly Eller! Erik watches all those shows WHILE he's making magnets and fish extenders AND sewing shirts and making buttonholes!

 

[cquick]

There are actually another set of Mary and Karen I laughed when I saw that Debbie

I'll bet there's no other Connie and Chuck's! We are an original!

Oh, by the way, we saw Off Kilter yesterday! My girlfriend and I did the Flower and Garden show and Chuck and Pat did the busses and we met at Off Kilter. Pat introduced me to them again!

Hey everybody,
I'm sorry to butt in here, as I'm not taking this one (boo hoo!) but I'd really appreciate somebody giving me the link to the live thread so I can live vicariously through you! We're sticking to our goal not to cruise this year and do all our traveling to see new grandchildren born and weddings and stuff like that. After the first PC repo 2 years ago, this will be a GREAT cruise! I'm so happy for all of you, and I can't wait to hear what you put on the live thread!
ttfn,
Renae

Melinda, Ruebin, Jennifer, Elliot!

UGH on the passports!

Lot's of us invading Gibraltar.

TA emailed that my plane ressies had changed and now we have to stay the night in Newark instead of going home from Paris. blah

Hmm - BFL and I are on the rock on your own tour (I think - gotta go look!) maybe we will jump off that and join all of you...will talk to her about this on Saturday - our last "planning meeting" of the 4 of us!!

there are several of us with a touch of grey, not to worry....

well - not all of us went grey as we got older - I went from white blonde to grey in 5 years. Been Grey/white since 22 - dyed it for years (Platinum of all colors!!) blonde, tried red for a while...finally said, go natural. I get more questions about the odd pattern - underneath is auburn/brown - with white over it - I have a layered cut that shows it off - you will see!! I love the color and wouldn't dye it ever again!

Grey rules!! (shows character...doesn't that fit???)

Bet there's only one Deanna. According to many I know, one's enough!

A quick question for Florida folks - DCL has put us up at the Orlando Airport Hyatt arriving about 1730 on Friday night. Are we close to any shopping? How far from DW is it and can you get there easily? Anyone else on the flight from Dallas?

 

[DizzneyDAnn]

Padalyn, I did the many different colors thing. I can't wait to see your natural locks!

Not from Dallas, but I used to live in North Richland Hills.

You were making me wish I had sattelite radio so I could listen too!

Dave will stay in the hot tub until he is well boiled and I start to look for melted butter And like you feels no need to stay in the house just becuase the temp. has dropped to sub zero Me? I just go out for the chance to talk to Dave

By the by--I love your great smilies you find (hula was my favourite )

Jimmy's concerts are also on Radio Margarittaville, via the internet

Hey Bob when is trhe next one, I think he is taking May off.

Scott -- Thought of you when I saw this. Funny thing is, I was looking for Hank the Cow Dog books on CD.

Thanks Lori, got it read it and enjoyed it.. some of Jimmy's other books are fun. One character, in the book, Tully Mars and his horse Mr Twain, used to live in Jackson Hole and Jimmy makes some pretty good commets about Jackson Hole that are very acurate. I saw Jimmy and Harrison Ford one day whilst we lived there, I believe, Ford did the whip part in Last Mango in Paris.

Did you call DCL and remind them you are back to back and need the Med cruise docs before the repo one leaves? You may not have seen that converation here a week or so ago, DCL is not thinking ahead about this unless you point it out.

Connie--I am jealous you got to see Off Kilter yesterday. I have to wait until September to see them. Also, while I do not know of another Connie and Chuck combo on the ship, there is anotehr Connie--she is a friend of my mother in law (but her guy is a Ken)

Scott--I never thought to look for Jimy's concerts online. Thanks for the tip

Debbie--If there was an hour without posts last night, it must have been during an hour long reality TV show


TV--Okay, if you REALLY don't want to miss a finale of some show, let the cruise staff know. Last September the season premier of something was on while we were on the ship. We got to an activity in Diversions and were told it was being delayed by an hour because many people had asked to see this show and they were going show it first. Funny thing is, not one person who came back for hte activity had stayed for the show--totally different types of people! So ASK (and ask early so the scheduel is set and my game doesn't get moved )

No shopping close that I can remember. There is some shopping in the airport. You are about 30 minutes from WDW depending on traffic. If you are planning on going in WDW then check the park hours before you go.

The airport has a great hotel right in the middle of things.
there is plenty of shopping at the airport it's like a mall. enjoy and see you on ship. oh...your about 40 minutes from wdw, it depends if you want to make the drive or not.
