I see my new ring!!!!

Mom called me while she was in FL and told me she hooked me up with a gold medallion ring, I guess that's what you are dropping off tonight?

Henna tattoos sound like a great idea, I could do a template before we go if that would help

Hey Aisling!

Tell Louise there's a discounted "My Way" package deal for those who use a Disney Visa card to pay for it...it's advertised at the top of the main page here...def worth checking into (I know you have a Disney Visa, not sure if she does or has access to one )

 

[trinibjill]

Yes, the ring, & a couples of other things. LYMI

Jill - nice display!!! love your towel animal!!!!

Tigg~A template probably would be a GOOD thing!!! I wonder if there is a place in Key West where we could get them so not have to wait till coz....that would be pretty cool for sure! We walked around that town alot but it wasn't something i was looking for, so didn't stick in my mind....but i'm sure there is.....then we'd have them for "more" of the trip....

Hey Jill! Nice to have you back. I got the WDW blues at the moment as this is the time of year we're usually on-site - last year we were enjoying the first of 2 fantastic weeks at the Polynesian with the whole extended family...

Thanks for the photos of the Pop windows - over the years I've heard about families decorating them but never understood how...

...I got to talk to a lot of castmembers this trip. In a few years I plan on becoming one...

DH and I hope to do the same in the future - I really want to work in the Christmas Shop in DTD...

Look forward to hearing about your backstage tour - DD and I are doing the Keys to the Kingdom in October...

 

[Aisling]

Jill, welcome back. I love the idea of decorationg the windows. You're brave for going in August, with the heat/humidity, but I'd also go in a minute in that heat if I could.
I hope your plan comes true, that you'll be a CM someday. What job would you like to do?

I was thinking about the cruise...since we're going down the day before (at least a day), I'm going to book the Candlelight Processional Dinner Package at Epcot. We've never done it before, and I think it would be beautiful to see. I'm hoping that Gary Sinese narrates the night we go; I LOVE that man.

One other thing I plan on doing is getting a bike at CC, and riding all the way out to the lookout point. I'm not a big fan of bikes, but from what I read, it's the only way, besides walking, to get over there. It's FAR from the ship.

And this time, let's meet up on the starboard side of the ship at sailaway. Last time, we were on the side away from the terminal, and we missed out on waving to the CMs who wear the Mickey hands as we sail away! Corny, I know, but adds to the fun!

I have the CP booked for December 25th, narrated by.... guess. Go on, guess!

Have you guessed?

That's right, the Mission: Space guy!

Putty?

 

[tiggerwannabe]

Putty?

I think that's the Soarin guy

I've watched the processional from the back of the stadium...we were with 5 kids that year and there was no way I would've been able to make them sit and watch for two hours...I'm thinking I may join you this time

John Tesh was the narrator for mine. It is a beautiful show~

 

[nskjerven]

oh yeah....who does mission space? that ride made me soooooo sick, noy sure his voice would be soothing or not....

 

[Aisling]

Grim, you lucky badger, you! Are you doing the dinner package? I'm nuts about Gary Sinese! Blow him a kiss for me, will ya pal?

Gary does Mission: Space, but he sure didn't help me when I FREAKED out with a panic attack on that ride. I'm VERY claustrophobic, but stupid me thought I'd be able to get through it. If I had a gun with me in that ride, I would have shot myself to put myself out of my misery, that's how bad it was. But I still love Gary. Well, I REEEEEEEEALLY hope he's there when we go in 2008.

 

[tiggerwannabe]

I thought Gary did test track, or was it dinosaur?

Anyway, we love him here too!

Thank you for the books mom! I will start Harry tomorrow and I started my imagineers workout book yesterday! My pirate Aztec gold ring is awesome! I'll. Be sportin that come cruise time...

Its beddy bye time, the best part about vacation will be that ill have time to sit and Dis whenever I want. Maybe even make a phone call or two.

Love you guys! Mean it!

Ps, I didn't show Adrian the messages you wrote to him yet but you can trust that I will...

I was looking for a picture of GS, and I saw I've been spelling his name wrong...it's Sinise.

I can't get it to show up as a picture, so here's a link of him doing Mission:Space. He has one of the most pleasant voices I've ever heard, that's why seeing him in the Candlelight Processional would be awesome.

Did anyone see Apollo 13? I loved the role he played.

Will do (there's no kiss blowing smiley!)

Thanks!

 

[nskjerven]

Thank you darling....if you didn't print yet, can you make it a 5x7. I'd set that size out on my desk and see us everyday...if you did a big one that's okay, I'll scrapbook it

A: Where do you find the perfect all the time?

I keep hearing about this...from so many people. I have a need to try it out. We live on the other side of 280, used to walk to Town and Country when I was in junior high (the old site prior Santana Row)

I must find a night for Paul and I to go and enjoy a night away but not too far away....

He'll always be Lt. Dan to me...

We did the Candlelight Processional on Christmas Day way back in 1998. The speaker was George Kennedy - Carter McKay in Dallas amongst many other things! It was wonderful and we're definitely doing it next year...
