NYE Western Cruise 2008 - New Thread

[Aisling]

I'm glad you understand what I'm going through. After I posted, I thought OMG the cruisers are going to think I'm a difficult neighbor!

What are you doing up so late?

 

[Anjelica]

WOW - past 9AM CT and I'm the first one to post - you guys go out drinking last night...LOL.

Just checking in - painted kitchen this weekend so didn't get any website updating done, etc. Will try and hit it later this week/weekend.

Tigg - not sure if I got you my right order, etc. but will be two large blue logos for adults and two "large/resized" blue logos for kids sized shirts. I'm going to go ahead and put them on the back of white t-shirts.

Hey everyone..

Cadznychk - If you can book 105 days out (you must be in a cat 1, 2 or 3 OR you book the REAS package) then its 9/28... If you are a castaway club member then you can book at I think its either 10/12 or 10/13.. I would call and ask them specifically which day for 90 out.

Artman- the REAS costs $359 total.. that includes:

2 DCL robes, Champagne and Chocolates upon arrival to your stateroom
Palo dinner for 2 and a bottle of wine
making ressies 105 days before the cruise
Rainforest pass for 2 for the length of the cruise
champagne breakfast in your room the morning of your choice (just not the last one)
romantic turndown service the night of your choice
and I was told a voucher for an 8x10 from Shutters.

All you have to do is call DCL and have them add it to your ressie.. then the whole cruise and REAS cost must be paid prior to the 105 days before in order to use that feature!!!

Oh.. and Brian is now totally excited about the FE!!! he is totally in to it now, wants to pick out presents and wants to design the FE look for our room!!! Was very upset when I told him how we would have to zip tie it down to the fish, due to thefts..

Thanks Kelly

 

[Aisling]

Kelly, see if you can get Brian to join the Dis and post!
WE WANT BRIAN! WE WANT BRIAN! WE WANT BRIAN!

Anjelica, LOL no drinking last night! Good for you getting your kitchen done.

Magicmeet is this weekend, I was writing out my Job Sheet for all the volunteers. I went to bed shortly after I posted~

You are not crazy or mean - you couldn't be more opposite of that. You have the patience of a Saint. I wouldn't have waited for the 3rd party to call.

Thank you for clarifying - Yes! You were one I had questions for

Do you still want little logos for the front of each shirt? I might be able to print the four on one page since two are for your little ones.

and as far as the buttons go...

Judy, if you are looking at the plastic cover on a button back - they are ok. I had some that would never stay closed (it would pop apart) and only one that is just fine. I made a floating Mickey head button - I punched out a small mickey head and put it inside the pin but didn't attach it. So he "floats" around inside.

Judy, do you have a program that resizes pictures for you like MS photo manager? You can click on the pics in my sig, right click on what opens and save it to your computer. Once it's saved to your computer you can resize it to whatever will fit in the button.

I've seen real button makers on ebay but they run a couple hundred dollars. Totally worthy for someone who plans on making a few hundred buttons. I totally could but can't bring myself to put out the cash.

Aisling..

Brian's work (the US Coast Guard) does not allow him to access sites likes these.. LOL!!! He can not go to chat boards or myspace or facebook or any of those from a US Coast Guard computer.

We actually do not have a computer at home.. I used to have a laptop .. but that died, and I have yet to replace it.. so therefore do not pay for internet access from home.

When I do use the computer on the weekends, its normally from my mom's house..

So sad I know. I only notice that we miss the access only occassionally.

I have told him ALL about you guys!!! He is excited to have ressie's linked to people that enjoy DCL and are pros!!! lol

Marching band started here bright and early at 9:00 a.m. - so much for the rest of the summer for us

 

[disneykelly73]

So.. Brian and I leave for WDW on Friday am. We got rdtp flights on Delta from Bos to MCO for only $239. The flights are direct and nonstop!!! We flly in super early on Friday am and back on the last flight on Monday 7pm.. That gives us practically another whole day at the parks.

We have all our PS ressies' in.. and are just counting down the days. We have been packing!! We cant wait. We are dying to try the new Toy Story Mania, hit up the AC one last time and Typhoon Lagoon (LOVE the lazy man river).

I have stuck to WW for the entire week... although faced w/some tough challenges that would normally have me falling off the diet wagon. I am determined to look good for this cruise.. Get back into all the nice things I have.. so I dont have to buy all new clothes. That said.. I told Brian that we dont have to follow WW in Disney, but we just need to make better decisions!!!

Tonight will be the tell, Hopefully they tell me that I magically lost 5lbs this week!!!! Or were those only the 1st week results when I was in my 20s?!??!!?

How is everyone else doing on their "diets" or life style changes!?!?! How is the exercise going (I am not doing well at that.. )

I think Aisling may have been over drinking at the neighbor's house.

I feel your pain Aisling, some people are just idiots. Good for you not putting up with it.

Hey Kelly, that's great! Give us the good news after your weigh-in! I know what you mean about having so many nice clothes that don't fit anymore. If I can lose the weight by cruise time, I won't have to buy any new clothes, and I mean even down to the underwear! I've been good with the treadmill, missed a day last week when I went to Tig's house, but I'm really sticking with it.

I found this photo on the Picture of the day thread, and I challenge anyone to do this at the dinner table when we cruise!

First my wife now you, you people are killing me.

Hope you have a great time and great weather.

I should have been, to build up my alcohol tolerance for the cruise!

Evil evil people!

 

[disneykelly73]

I know.. I cant wait to get down there.. I hope the weather is good!!!

Aisling.. glad to hear that your exercise has been consistant.. I just havent been that motivated. I get weighed tonight after work at 530.. so I will post how much I lost 1st thing tomorrow am!!!

I am hoping that its a good number.. so that I can keep w/the motivation.. after the first 2 weeks, weight loss should be around 2 lbs a week MAX for healthier results.

This trip we are eating at lunch at the Sci Fi on Sat, and 50's Prime time on Monday.. for dinners we are at Narcoisse on Sunday night and the Beirgarten on Saturday night. We are going to do CS for all the other meals! I cant wait to try Narcoisse.. I have that planned to coincide w/the Water pagent that night. This was one of my FAVS as a child!!

I will be ready to party by Dec - marching band will be done, but by then swim season will be in fulll swing - so will be ready for some 'down time' and a adult beverage or 2 or 3 etc etc etc

I am not showing the wine bottle pic to Kara - she will want to 'out do' it
