I guess 103 pages.

 

[moneyhappy]

I think the board will start to slow down as people start their travels. I'm thinking 40 pages by May 15th.

 

[AlohaJoe23]

I predict 34. We just can't maintain this pace.

It is a nice distraction from work. I think work is trying to kill me.

I FINALLY managed to get my online check in completed. Don't know why but it has taken 2 days to persuade the system to accept my credit card for payment authorisation.

I was starting to get worried that i wasn't going to be able to buy all of the Disney merchandise that i was planning on buying (and that's a lot!).

This time next week i'll have finished work and be looking forward to cruising

Thanks Kia. I updated the Roll Call.

Here is the updated Lanyard Listing.

Here is the list by DIS name and quantity of lanyards. Check to make sure we're right and haven't left anybody off that's sent ebony (Jan) or me a request. We're now out of the black lanyards but I can make any number of the name cards/badges that can be put into your Castaway Club lanyards. I've also got 3 extra Castaway Club lanyards that I'll bring.

Bank of America id down to 1.34 this morning.

The rate is down to 1.26 now. I can get Euro at AAA with no fee so that's the route I'm going to use.

That is weird. I called two local AAA offices and they only sell tip packs (prepackage Euros) in $100 or $250 with and exchange rate of 1.5625.
It is based on what they paid for them when they bought the euros.

 

[jojo6617]

Hi guys is any one interested in arranging a meet for one of evening’s after the show and the late dinner sitting maybe around 10pm in one of the bars.

Different AAA apparently do things differently. Here in Huntsville, they order the Euro (2 business day turnaround) so they don't keep them in the office as a commodity.

 

[Jeff Spencer]

On board, I think it'd be good to have a standing, come and go as you please meet on the evenings before the Sea Days (May 15th, May 20th, May 24th).

Thats a good idea to have a choice of nights. We will be up for going along for a drink.

I say we will be on page 55 by the 15th.


Is anybody doing the Hop on Hop of bus in Rome ?

 

[Jeff Spencer]

I think your suggestion of around 10 pm is good. I think the Promenade Lounge is a good place because there's more seating there than anywhere else.

Jane, are the shampoo and conditioner good quality? I may forgo bringing my own and save the room. Anne
