Jenn, was all excited, Thought it may have Duckies inside...

Give your Family a hug from us!!!

Still, cant believe this trip came and Went...

Ron - sorry to hear about your problems with the bags. We were lucky on Air France. We had on bag way over the limit and they let it go. I was really worried about our carryons and they didn't even weigh them. So I am feeling really lucky.

From what I am told, flying internationally, there are much higher allowances for baggage weights, but, since we were flying within Spain they have VERY low allowances, thus the rather ridiculous charges... I was tetering between throwing a fit and passing out....

New thread - From the Med to the Panama Canal
We have less than a year to go for this fun cruise, but this one seems less daunting than the Med. It seems that it will be a lot less packing (since it will be warm weather all the way), a lot less excursion planning, a lot more relaxing! I know my family is looking forward to an easier cruise

We are on the Westbound Panama Cana Cruise, to! My DH already told me he's only packing 3 tshirts, 1 pair of shorts and swimming trunks on our next cruise.....I guess he's going naked to dinner!

 

[AskAGeek]

Hi everyone!! Thanks for the birthday wishes! So far it has been a great day. A little work, a little relaxing. Now I just have to get Pete to take me out to dinner! Sure wish I was on a cruise with all of you to celebrate!! ~~ Jenn

I thinkTopsiders is open, but Palo reservations are going to be tough!

I was so hoping for chocolate souffle!! Oh well, guess I will have to settle for an ice cream sandwich!

Most of you realize by now that what I know about internet can fit in a thimble!! I need some help!Please?!
Some of you know that I am a girl scout leader. There was apin trading event at DL this past weekend. There was a pin with Pluto which said something like "ALWAYS PREPARED".
Does anyone know how I can get one of these or can head me in the right direction of finding info? I would REALLY appreciate it VERY MUCH!
Yes, I did buy the completed collectors set on the ship and a couple of extras, so if anyone is missing something I might have an extra!

Im not trying to turn this into a pin site, I just need some help from my friends!

We managed two Palo reservations on the First Med and our server brought my hubby 3 souffles each time... plus my in-laws went one night alone and were sent out with 3 souffles for my husband!! Our server even sent me a to-go because I had to stay in the room with our sick son one night. The server even sent an extra filet to-go just in case we got hungry at 3am!!!

He knew I was preggers and that night-time cravings are fun...

We really got a kick out of it!

Hmmm..... souffle. I will admit that my hubby makes a chocolate/raspberry souffle that actually BEATS the ones at Palos!!! Ymmmmmm!

You are on a roll today Peter. I can see myself doing a couple of those things - lol

Just make sure they're YOUR shorts.....

Just got my box from DCL with my battery charger in it. Who else would send back our lost and founds but the big D?

Thanks Sue!

I finally got enough energy to check on-line! Nice to know we're being thought of. Those Palo dishes were great!

I haven't caught up on the thread - only read this page. We had a great time in Paris. Nana and I had a little blow-out on arrival but that really cleared it up for the rest of the trip. I just couldn't handle one more complaint!

Christina continued her fountain and dog tour of Europe. Her highlight of the whole trip is <drumroll please> ... TREVI FOUNTAIN! Runner-up is the Metro. Here I went and spent all this money on shore excursions when I could have just bought a simple Metro pass and left her on it all day.

I think we're still recovering from the whirlwind tour. Between the wild pace on the cruise - and the non-stop walking all over Paris, we're exhausted! It was all I could do this weekend to get groceries. Christina's enjoying art camp - but she's just as exhausted. We're back into the swing of things though. Christina's already had an MRI (which took ALL DAY - we arrived at 10:30 AM only to stay until 10:30 PM!!!! ). Work's been busy.

I've managed to upload the 2000+ pictures we took from the laptop to the home computer. I'm hoping to spend this weekend creating a pretty slide show but we'll see. My parents (Dad and stepmom) are visiting the following weekend. It'll be nice to see them. Have to do some house cleaning and !

We really enjoyed meeting everyone on the cruise. It was great fun to see both old and new friends. Now if I could only figure out how to afford another cruise before 2008!

You're right! Within the EU it's much tougher. We flew to Paris and if it wasn't for our two business class seats we would have been in deep doo-doo. Business class got an additional 10Kg per bag. That's about 22 pounds! Trust me, we used every single one of those extra pounds... something to do with a Chateau somewhere...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENN!!!

Okay, so it's one day late. Should have checked the thread yesterday.

Hope you had a good time!

Here's a big huge Palo's chocolate souffle from me. And from Christina (that is her highest compliment).

BTW - I want you to know we were running around all last week saying "but WE'RE IN PARIS!" with arms widespread everytime something went a little awry just like you said about Italy. It certainly helped turned any rainy day frowns upside-down! Thanks!
