[PeeWee Mom]

12 days to go until the cruise!!! 10 until we are driving to FL!!

Got dh new pants today, have to take them to be hemmed up later today.

Dh still needs to finish the Fish Extender...he cut the wood, but still needs to fix it so we can hang it up!! He thought he was done once he cut it...

I was talking by PM with another cruiser who is thinking of walking in the mornings. I'm not sure what time. I'm not an early morning type of person (well, when I don't have to be) so I'm not sure how early I'll be up. But I do want to walk almost every day!

I will walk when I get up--Usually before Breakfast. On previous Cruises I walked when I got up and left Mark asleep in the cabin! It all depends when I get up! would Love any company!!

Wow...only 12 more days...and I have not done any sort of packing or anything at all to get ready...other than shopping. I think all outfits are now accounted for!
I do want to walk also...how early is "early"?? I am not much of an early riser either...but I need to do something to make sure I do not gain any more weight!! And, I think I can get up a little easier on vacation because there's something fun to do...as opposed to getting up and going to work!

Depending on How early you are I would love to walk!

Don't faint, but I am an early riser, I am usuall up there by 6:15-6:30. Walk for an hour and then breakfast at Topsiders!! I see many beautiful sunrises and rainbows! I will see you all there.

Can you read them? I told him thanks before I went and looked, and I can not read them. I wonder why?

 

[AladdinsPrincess]

Is anyone on this cruise doing the Patouche Tours excursion to the Baths from Tortola? Just considering all of our options...

Thanks!

I can read most of them...but some parts are not legible at all...not sure why either.

Don't know if I am getting excited or scared. The day is coming up WAY to fast. Have got clothes out that fit. Need to iron now & take a quick trip to mall with Kaylah. Maybe Friday. Need to make hair appointment tomorrow. OMG it is coming too quickly! Oh, what the heck. I will just throw it all into a suitcase./SIZE]

Alright, I thought I was the only one. Although I would fall under the category of can't read most of it. I'm sad too. I wanted to daydream for a little while.

I can read them, no problem. They are PDF files, do you all have Adobe on your computers???

Sharon, I'm right there with you! I don't have anything done. I think I'm ok on clothes but need to check the girls. I have a feeling I'll be running to Kohl's or Target with them later this week. Oh ... I'm not ok ... I need new shoes!!! I tend to wear flat, nice flip-flops during the summer & my brown & black ones have seen their better days. Need to get myself to the shoe store TOMORROW!!! Won't be doing anything tonight. I have a hair appt. at 7:45 then will be plopping myself on the couch to watch the season finale of Biggest Loser.

I do. I even have the latest versions downloaded. My hubby tried on his computer and no luck there either.

 

[CajunGirl2]

I looked at the Navigators too & thought they were blurry in spots. If you zoom, it helps some. Heather, thanks for posting the link. At least we can all get a general idea of what's going on when.

I have done next to nothing. I am off next Thursday so I will do all the packing then and we leave Friday. This week end we are staying in a condo on the beach in destin. It's my Mom's 88th Birthday. So there will be no packing then, do hope to get to the bathing suit shopping done.

I'm right with you I get a box that says: "insufficient data for an image" and what does come up isn't very clear at all

Yep, that's what my box says. Most of the pages are 1/2 blank. Even zooming won't help. I'm so sad, I want to read them.

Of course I can read them in 11 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am printing them but it is taking a while. I can save the PDF and try emailing it if any one would like me to try.

That would be great! I'll pm my email. Thanks!!

 

[JOANNEL]

duplicate sorry.

 

[Disneyfalcon]

I can see them now!! I got on the desktop and they're there. The desktop has an older version of reader - 8.0. Our laptops both have 9.1. Maybe it's the newer version that can't read it.

Thanks though Joanne!!

No problem reading or printing the Navigators. Which version of Adobe reader are you running?

A quick comparison shows no difference between these and other Eastern Navigators, with the exception of the Tortola one. That does have the times for the excursions and meeting points, otherwise the shipboard activities match St. Martin.
