Arrggghhh!! fellow Pirates!!! We arrived safely in Buffalo, we have to get up SUPER early (5ish) to get ready and get to the airport, we fly at 7:30 so we will have a good chunk of time to enjoy at VB!!! I am soo excited!!! Love all the pics you all posted, Disney MAGIC, look out cause here we come

 

[pinkygirl]

Four bag limit??? For each stateroom or person or family or what??



My sister, hubby and I plan to work out. This is our third cruise and we have seen the results of NOT working out!

it's one bag per person, Michele has a family of 4 so that's a 4 bag limit for them for flying
if you are not flying then you have a limit of 2 per person

 

[pinkygirl]

OK!!!

thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Everyone!!! Yahoo i made it back here before we closed down the chapter!!

Those Animal runs were too cute that you guys did last night...I am so sad that I wasnt able to get back on to add a few to them. But I was packing up more things from the old house. I am so TIRED of this and we dont even have half packed yet Im hoping that we can get it done before time to move out the first of November. I do have two weeks when we get back from the cruise to work my butt off as well though and maybe the weeks vacation on the cruise will be the lift I need to get my butt in gear to get moving

Is their a luggage limit amount for the cruise???? I have 4 total...1 garment bag, 2 dufflebags (one has FE stuff in it) and our regular luggage bag. i hope there isnt a luggage amount because If so...I hope I am not over the limit

I am hoping that tonight I can get more things packed up in the house...now the guys have to carry the boxes out to the truck and load them up to bring to the new house...bad part is that it was raining off and on all day today so they couldnt do that..so its hard to pack up more boxes when there isnt much room at the old house to put them The kitchen is all packed up except the food items...but all plates and cookwear and such is packed...now its onto the living room, Christo's room and then our room I think the next hardest room will be Chris's because of all of his ttoys...but If I start tonight then MAYBE I can get most of it (if not all) packed up before the cruise...but I only have till tuesday because I am going back up with mom. We are going to wait to take the Jeep in to get the tire fixed till we get back from the cruise..or else I may never get any of the packing done

Sorry I havent been on much recently...I really am trying to get things done for the house...I will get on every chance that I get though because I miss you guys if I am gone from here too long My mom and DMIL have gone to get us some dinner (we ordered from Ruby Tuesdays) so when they get back its time to eat and tonight I will try to check in here before I start my packing again

if you are not flying then you have a limit of 2 per person

Is there a size limit to the bags? We plan to use a rather large rolling duffle bag for most of our stuff, plus a normal rolling suitcase (maybe two). The duffle bag is GREAT! We use it when we go skiing for all that bulky stuff and boots...it made it through the airport terminals a few years back...

Does anyone ever actually, ok don't laugh, workout on the cruise???

I plan to, if not work out, walk deck 4. I've been good the past year and while I don't intend to overindulge this trip, I DO intend to enjoy myself, so working out will help offset whatever enjoying I do do

 

[pinkygirl]

be back in a bit........time to get the boys ready for bed!!

 

[RanCan]

Not good.. No we did not.. Call me later and I will fill you in on the details...!!!!!!!!

I will!! When's a good time??????

 

[BigRed1]

Be back later!!!

I love using Dufflebags...It just seems like you can fit more into them and they will still weigh less than a suitcase with the same items in it (if you can fit the same items into a suitcase that is). We are bringing 2 of the dufflebags of ours to cruise...easier to fold up and put away as well to make more room. On the way home I am thinking that we will have one less piece of luggage...(or not depending on suivineers)

Yep! That's why we bought that large duffle. We can pack smaller duffles for DD4 and DD6 with their clothes, a bag for the swimsuits, mine and DH clothes and probably another bag for misc. things and put ALL into the duffle! DD12 insists on using her on rolling suitcase...Then one backpack each and a small cooler, and we will be good to go!

Yea you get away with carrying more things and yet not having to carry them with a ton of different bags I swear that the dufflebags is the only way I would have been able to bring on the FE gifts and carry everything we needed without it looking like we are moving in for good

Good Evening All-

Well-the day started out good. We surprised the boys with Disney on Ice. We had great seats and they really enjoyed it.

We came home and I was starting to print the last of the iron ons. I was in the middle of the embarkation one and the printer stopped working. I think a gear must have broken. It's not feeding the paper all the way thru. It gets stuck in the back. Called Lexmark b/c it's still under warranty. They are going to send us a new one but it's going to take 4-5 business days. All I had for the iron ons were embarkation and the Parrothead logo ones. Plus, I was planning on printing out these Candy wrappers a diser had designed for Michael's birthday. His birthday is wed. and we were going to hand out Hershey bars and lifesavers to his class. Michael also has to turn in his Golden Eagle posterboard report on Friday before the cruise. He can handwrite his report, but I was planning on printing up the photos tomorrow. Our library here does not have a color printer. Anyone know if I save the items as a jpeg file if I can get it printed at Kinkos or something. It'll probably cost a pretty penny. I thought I was going to be completely done tomorrow. Oh well. Really need the vacation now.
