May Med Magic - May 15 2010 - Meet thread - Part 2

[MPS516]

Well work is done. Leave for the airport ready or not in 5 hours. Packing lots of sunshine and warm tradewinds. I hope Continental or EasyJet doesn't lose our luggage. See you all in Barcelona.

Aloha

Do appreciate you bringing the sunshine and warm trade winds, here it is rain mixed with snow, that's what happens when you get a snowless March.

But oh so a witch in person! I used to volunteer for the Children's Miracle network telethon at the MU Hospital and had the dis-pleasure of meeting her.

Jill

I think she was Miss Nevada or somewhere when she got the part over Rachel Welch. All of us young boys however didn't care how she was in person she was our on screen crush.

Hi All its Me again!!!!! Its the middle of the night but just cant sleep (am watching to see who gets in goverment but really day dreaming about the cruise)
1. Can i ask yet more question!!!! We dont really want to take a buggy although will need one if / when we get off so i know they have a limited amount do you think they will be all gone as we will be one of the last to board (if we get there in time ahhhhhhhhh)
2.If we do get off at ports can we take there tales or should i bring our own!
3. Instead of a pillow case to ask the characters to sign could i bring a photo frame and where do i go to get that sorted!!
4. Does it show on our tickets when our dinner time is (i called iglu who said they dont know when it is but have sent disney an email to request early) Why is it everyone else knows!!!
5. Am thinking of booking teeth whitening treatment (brits arent renoned for great teeth lol) but dont want to decide on a time now as hate to book when doing something with my bubs!! soooo do you think i could book on board!
6. Have had another idea for my Fe gifts but not sure if its allowed... can i bring flower seeds or is that a food substance dont really no much about customs!!!!
7.My daughter wants to bring all (16) disney fancy dresses but really dont have the room do the have ones there for her to wear or hire!!

A long hot day at work today---boy, it has sure warmed up here in Florida !
Tonight we are finalizing our clothes--suitcases are out and ready to pack.

FE's are tagged and ready to go , paperwork is sorted and waiting to travel with us and my doggie (MacKenzie) is looking at us like we're crazy !!!

We arrive in Barcelona Thursday morning----here's the forecast for the end of next week---
May 13 Thursday Chance of showers. Highs in the mid 60s and lows in the low 50s.
May 14 Friday Chance of showers. Highs in the mid 60s and lows in the mid 50s.
May 15 Saturday Showers. Highs in the mid 60s and lows in the low 50s.

Maybe the shower part will change by then-

By the way---we usually take Ginger (capsules) with us---just in case

So, are we going to see you at some point during the cruise or will you remain anonomous?

 

[jlwhitney]

lol...well it is DH(23) and I(25) and we will be celebrating second anniversary...Second seating, Deck 5

 

[MPS516]

I see in the Navigator that there is a College Club Lunch at Parrot Cay, we can have an Ohio State Table and Big 10 area, UT Table, Michigan, Ivy League Area, SEC and then 3 chairs for CBC. Alas, looks like they are looking for current college age, maybe they won't check my id.

 

[Florida Princess]

College ID's
Reminds me of a conversation I had with a few Guests today. I noticed they were carrying a Rutgers BackPack and I remarked that I attended college there way back when ! . They immediately spoke up asking if I still went to the football games and then asked when I attended school there. I replied that I went there in the early 70's----they then looked at me like I was well--crazy Don't know if they thought I was very very OLD or what
So that was my day !!!!!

 

[Pinmeister]

Hi there,
Rich and I are on that flight too! We look forward to meeting you!
Where are you staying in Barcelona?
Karen

Hi Karen, Frank and I are staying at Casa de Billy on the Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes. It says it is @ 3 blocks to Plaza Espanya
Hopefully we will see you at the airport. Nancy

 

[MPS516]

Yes, I work with people who have never heard of things like key punch cards for computer programing, Jonestown, Kent State Bay of Pigs, or other big 60s and 70s life changers. It is funny to work with people who were not even born when I started the job, that was a significant life changer in itself.

I went to a state school so we could still drink them under the table

Congratulations! Stop in sometime during the cruise and say hi.

True, however, I work with guys who talk about going to the moon using slide rules instead of calculators and fancy computers. When I think about it, it really is amazing what this country did back in the 1950s and 60s...heck, the 40s with World War II.

I would like to say I think you may be seeing you on the Segway tour in Barcelona (may 26 at 3pm)

 

[k8e]

Started packing tonight! Online check-in, done. I knew I had leftover Euros from a couple years ago, but didn't realize I had over 100 Euro pleasant surprise!!

 

[KDavies29]

Is anyone flying out of JFK on Delta Flight 94...May 12th, 5:35PM?

We finally finished our door magnets and stateroom Mickey Ears.

I think I will be pretty much worthless the next four days at work.

We will be on this flight. We are getting into JFK around 11:00 coming from Orlando FL. It will be a very LONG layover, but the flights were alot cheaper that way. I will have lots of time to reread my Rick Steves books

 

[KDavies29]

Hi All,

Two Questions:

I am soooo looking forward to this cruise but dreading the long flight over. I hear rumors that crossing the Atlantic is quite turbulent. True or untrue?

Secondly, I have a very nagging feeling that I am forgetting to pack something. So what useful thing did you remember to pack that others (like me) have probably forgotten? I have the extension cord, noisemaker, camera & phone chargers, hangers, nightlight...........

Hi All,


Secondly, I have a very nagging feeling that I am forgetting to pack something. So what useful thing did you remember to pack that others (like me) have probably forgotten? I have the extension cord, noisemaker, camera & phone chargers, hangers, nightlight...........

I have my packing list out since I started today (and will hopefully finish tomorrow!) Here are a few random things you may or may not think of:

pirate outfit/accessories
I like to bring a folder to keep my Navigators in for souvenirs
Downy wrinkle release (travel size)
highlighters for the Navigators
door decorations and/or dry erase board for stateroom door
