Hello All,

We are staying at Ron Jon on Friday night. Saw that someone else was there. However, we may not arrive until late Friday night. With 4 kids in the van we sometimes have to make a unscheduled stop or two or three or..... But, we will be at the Port by 11:00 am on Saturday complete with Mickey ears, green wrist bands and anythng else lime green we have.

Wow, less than 30 days. Got most everything done or planned but have failed miserably on my diet plans. Oh well, at least I won't have to by new clothes so I'll have more money for drinks with umbrellas while laying on the beach. Just hope folks won't think I'm a beached whale and keep trying to drag me back into the water.

TTFN

Don't feel alone the diet plan has not worked for me either. Try try as I can just doesn't work. To late now but I'm still trying for ten before the crusie. Just so I don't feel guilty eating.

David, I have been planning this for 2 years and I have nothing done. Do share your secret. LOL

As for the diet. I am on a new age diet. It is the latest and greatest fad and I assure you it works. It is so versatile that it works every where and I look forward to it on the cruise. It is definately a no guilt diet. It is a seefood diet. You seefood and eat it and it helps you wiegh differently at each new age. Seeing how I just had a birthday, I am proud to say I weighed differently than last year. Wow this is really working. No guilt here.

 

[faireygod mother]

Okay, so some of you seem up for a new challenge, or at least a higher one. So here is the challenge. 5500 posts by time we cruise.

Maybe some lurkers will stop by and say hello , just to help us with the challenge.

It is clear to me now that we all need a vacation Or at least wil after all the typing we will need to do.

I will buy a drink for the person who posts# 5500. Any body else want to contribute?

Four weeks from today we load up and start the drive down!!! I am soo excited. We have parts of our pirate costumes but we have to finish putting them together. Of course the fact that we have a costume party next weekend helps light the fire! I still need to get the clothing inventory put together for the boys. I'm pretty sure dinner attire is lacking! Dave still has to get his suits altered! Time snuck up on us, that is for sure.

Do we know anything about numbers for goodie bags? I'll be hitting the candy after halloween so that will make things cheaper!

I got to tell you all, it is COLD here today! It isn't even going to get into the 50's! Now that is something to make you wish for the cruise.

Ok, off to get ready for work.

Hi alll and welcome new comers!!!

We will be staying at Ron Jon's on Friday night also. We probably won't get there until after 5 -- no lazy river for us .

Are there still plans for doing tag?

Looking forward to seeing everyone in 30 days!!!!!

I want to know about the hiking pants, too. Is this a west coast thing?

i'm not real sure what is going on - but im pretty sure none of you are going to see me in any hiking pants . . .

 

[ibouncetoo]

Morning double dippers! I signed on the DIS to send out some PM's, but had to stop by with help for the post count challenge...how could I not?

I also have not had much success with the old diet plan, but haven't thrown in the towel. 5-10 more off will help make room for that Mango Soup, Chocolate Souffle and other shipboard goodies. I MUST get in more 'body movement' (can't use the exer.... word) if I want to survive my adventure with David & Ivan.

 

[mom2of2]

for those doing the ruins tour in CM what are you bringing to wear? I hadn't even thought of this until I saw the "hiking pants" post. Obviously we will wear sneakers but should I pack jeans?

Is anyone else getting a room decorating? We are celebrating our 10th anniversary so I was thinking about doing the congratulations one although that kind of seems *weird* congratulate MYSELF or DH???

My mom and boys are in the cabin next to us and I was thinking about doing one of Shirley's baskets for them. Can't for the life of me think about what to put in it though. I'm already *smuggling* in a case of Pepsi for my mom.

I also finished filling out my online check in forms. I was all set to be on a budget and just put cash on my room card when my dang credit company upped my limit on my CC. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.....

I amup for the 5500 challenge I am sure we CAN do it!!!!

I'm planning on cotton pants (probably full length) sneakers with socks and a light cotton shirt. Also a hat or visor and briging bug spray (and if I remember, some toilet paper as recommended in various trip reports). I'll be carrying my Disney Quest backpack that day, as I want to bring my swimsuit in case a dip in the ocean is required at the end of our jungle adventure...perhaps after a bite to eat at the Cat's Meow .

We're getting a basket from Shirley, with two bottles of wine and some diet rootbeer and I don't know what else as TiggersPal is taking care of that.

I ordered the Bon Voyage decorations for our room and am planning on ordering baskets for dd6 and dd8. Will also be getting baskets for mil/fil, bil/sil and dn. I've hinted (ok told) my dh he should order me the Mickey head pearl necklace as a "surprise" but I don't see it happening.

TiggersPal - did you call shirley already? she told me to wait until two to three weeks before - but im getting so nervous im going to forget!

anybody pick up bonine? i need to get that too . . .

 

[mom2of2]

Well if Shirley said 3 weeks then on the 21st we all need to call!!!!!!!! Poor Shirley will be making baskets in her sleep!!!!

would you please post a reminder - if my sister ends up having to drink diet coke instead of her diet pepsi im going to have a hard time getting her back on the ship in 2008

 

[clynne]

Oh, no, Linda, hiking pants better NOT be a West Coast thing, because we don't have any! I was just planning on shorts, t shirt, sunscreen, bug spray and sneaking sneakers onto my Croc flop loving feet! (They may never forgive me!)

And, I need DISdiretion on Tag gifts. Quantities mostly, so I can decide what I'm going to do and go shopping!

I'm ordering from Shirley, too, but thought I'd wait a couple weeks. DCL gifts catalog is in Surly's pile on the counter...ahem...eyeing the Mickey pearl necklace, too...
