Well, I started exercising with the intent of reading more of that TR but ended up comign here instead, so please forgive my typing as I'm exercising
(I usually just read instead of type while I'm on my elliptical.) Anyway, I'll probably be doing this for at least 1 -2 hours after all the food I ate yesterday at that scrapbooking thing. You'd thinlk all my
DCL pics that I was working on woudl remind me to refrain from overindulging, but I think all the pics of food made me feel like I was on DCL already, so I felt I had to eat everything I possibly could.
We wouldn't cruise without the insurance because you never know what might happen
We wouldn't either. We've had too many sudden illnesses, etc. happen to us that I'm not going to take that risk. Kidney stones, appendicitis, etc. can happen at any minute (I know from expeirence), so I tend to live like "you never know what's going to happen." This is also why I don't leave my kids in the clubs while we're in port. Just in case. I'm kind of jealous of people that don't worry so much!
It's hard to dress up for pirate night because of the luggage restrictions now. We will probably do some type of shirt with our old bandanas from DCL. There's not a lot of people who get into it. The first 2 cruises, we dressed in matching tropical wear (because it used to be tropical night) and it was a good opportunity for us to match even though it wasn't tropical night!
We'll be in Palo on Pirate Night, so we won't be dressing up. The boys want to, but they'll be in the club for their pirate stuff that night, so we might try to find something for them to wear.
I love HObby Lobby! We don't have them here in CA but my mom lives in TN and I get monthly packages with tons of scrapbooking stuff in it!!
I like HL, too, but it drives me crazy that they're not open on Sundays. That's the day I do a lot of shopping, so they miss out on a lot fo my business becasue of that.
Same here...I'm still trying to catch up on all of the first posts! Not sure if we will be getting off the boat to try the pie (my kids could care less about that)!!
WHAT?!?! NO KLP?!?! ARE YOU SURE?!?! Believe me, I was one of hte most reluctant people to try it (don't like lime), but Justin "forced" it on me, which is strange because his sweet tooth is SO SMALL compared to mine (it barely fits in my big mouth!
), but it was one of the best things EVER! My kids are so picky, but they loved it! It doesn't taste like lime at all. It's like cheesecake!!
We watched the sunset at Key West while sitting in our hot tub....what memories! Enjoy the spa!
Makes me want to do it!! We're probably all trying to reserve it for hte same time now!
What are the MagTabs? I have always used magnetic tape (like I mentioned above). We don't have a Menards here.
i'll see if I can find a link again. It's hard to search for because a) there's a medication with that name, too, so that comes up first on a search, and b) they're not very readily available. I should look at
Walmart sometime to see if they ahve them. Otherwise, I could probably get a bunch at Menards and bring them with us to give out at the terminal or wherever we meet up at.
Oh yeah...I forgot to mention that if you are waitlisted for main dining, you should check your ressie. I went to the website and punched in a new ressie and main dining is open! So, noone should be waitlisted at this point because new ressies have the choice!!
I wonder if this means our cruise isn't filling up.
I've been checking the prices of our cruise to see if they're going up as more people book, but it's still the same price (for cat 8 anyway) as the day we booked it in Dec 2007. Maybe we're the only ones on the ship!!
Here's a link to a post that I did awhile ago before most people found our thread (2nd paragraph). Just imagine if this were the case!!

Does anyone know what plays will be on during our cruise???
I would assume it's Golden Mickeys, Twice Charmed, and Disney Dreams with the other nights filled in with some comedy/magic/hypnotist/etc acts and a movie in the WDT one night. Not sure though. Hopefully some more Navigators will be scanned as we get closer!
I did swim @400 meters so that is getting better. Maybe I will be a swimmer by the cruise!
WTG!
Ummmm...by 4 year old son can now beat my 34 year old husband.
It is amazing how they figure that game out so quickly. Me -- I am TERRIBLE, always in last place but it's ok -- it is all fun!
I am, too. Especially on all teh Mario games on Wii. Sometimes I really do try to win at board games, but it just never seems to go my way. Oh well. Guess I'm jsut a big loser...
I will probably be the only one eating the pie. I am guessing the kids will want to try it (it is dipped in chocolate after all) but give up after the lime? We'll see.
I think they shoudl at least try it! You'd be surprised!
2. Figure out the transportation options
ME, TOO!!
Again, sorry for all the typos. Usually I'm OCD about it, but it's taken me 52minutes just to do this.
Now I'll read the TR some more and I'll have a few hours knocked out in no time!
Yeah...right.
Oh, we had a conversation at cards on Fri about the Mexico situation, and it sounds like it's mostly Cancun. If you go off the "tourist" area, you're putting yourself at risk because the resort areas are like a protected area because tourism is Mexico's huge money maker, so the govt really inforces that. But obviously there are people that don't "follow the rules."
to our cruise thread!! Sometime in the next few days, I'll try to get you added to post #1 where we've added some info about ourselves and pictures (we still need some pics from some of the regulars, too!!) 
)
They also have the magnet "tapes" for those who want "removable" magnets for reasonable prices!
Since we are cruising during teacher appreciation week, I have to start early on these things so I'm not doing it on the plane ride!! I have a lot of things to do for TA week since I am room parent for both schools (and active in PTA). I tried bribing my mom to come for vacation before we go on the cruise so she could help me!! It didn't work!
If the site won't work right, just keep reloading....it will eventually work!!
All i have been doing is counting the days till we set sail
