Disney Dreams Stage Show and Sail Away Party Enhanced
The award winning "Disney Dreams" stage show has become "Disney Dreams...An Enchanted Classic." Timon and Pumbaa will be making their debut aboard the Disney Cruise Line when they appear as part of the Lion King's "I Just Can't Wait to be King" and "Hakuna Matata" numbers.

During the "Beauty and the Beast" number, you'll have "snow" falling from above while sparkling pyrotechnics enhance Cinderella's transformation from rags to radiance.

Best of all, Tinkerbell will "fly" overhead leaving a glittery trail of "pixie dust" in her path.

On both ships the summer voyages will kick off an expanded Sail Away Party. The interactive dances will feature new music, the Disney characters and the "Ariel Vision" jumbo screen. It might be you seen dancing on the big screen among the special effects planned during this celebration.

Robin here...

You crack me up!

You also sound like me. I keep saying tomorrow... and tomorrow never comes. I lose a couple lbs only to gain them back a week later.

Now that I'm not caring for my Mom & Dad so much, I can get back to the excercise.

(By the way everyone, my brother finally realized we need some home care for Mom & Dad. Dah!! Can you believe it? When I left him to do it himself, he decided it was just too much. ) He actually almost apologized to me. (In his own way, but I'll take it.)

Back to what I was saying. This morning I got up and walked then excercised and used the weights. I was an ambitious little stinker today. I will keep it up.

20 to 30 lbs to go in just over 3 months.

Sorry I haven't been here lately. Company...... Anyway I'm now trying to catch up and will start answering everyone.......sorry if something has already been covered. Jeff, I promise not to multiquote!!!!!

I am with you guys on the weight thing!!!! i can't seem to keep it up. You have inspired me to start again.

 

[goofyfreak]

All signed up and ready to go.

I even have a few ideas.

Glad you guys will be joining us!!!!!

 

[goofyfreak]

Ok... trying to talk about this whole tag thing and pirate outfit thing to the nephews is like crazy. So they finally say they are going are just doing whatever I tell them as long as we are all doing it. So I will make sure that I make them pass out a bag or two and give them all of these false warnings... Like if you get caught, then you have to sing a song or something like that. My younger ones won't get caught because they are sneaky like that but the older ones might just start singing to you. LOLOL

I'll think of other things as well... just to keep them from vegitating.

That is too funny!!!!!! I want to hear them sing!!!!! Give me a heads up when to watch for them!!!!!!

Good morning to our sleepy little thread.

Robin: Glad to see your brother woke up and that things seem a little better for you. What did you and Cassie do all last week? Fun stuff I hope!

Heather You spoke about the CM's name tags. Is that really supposed to work that by making comments about your name's being the same, you may score their name tag? If that's the case, my kids will be on a mission all week.

Chris, Linda, KarenWhere are you all? I have the day off to DIS, make cards, and bake some zucchini breads. I'd rather DIS!!

Lori Your Alex is a girl, right?

Jessalyn Your Avery is also a girl, right?



And here's a current list of DIStaggers:
Jeff, Nancy, Linda, Lori, Cass, Dave, Heather, Cheryl, Karen, Rose, Janice, Paige, Carrie, Missy, Jessalynn, Judy, Susan and Robin.

Yes my Alex is a girl.

Good morning all

I have a short day at work today 3 1/2 hours. Like it is even worth going in. I am going to see if I can stay for a full 8 just so I don't have to come home to the kids for a while.

Mackenzie is going to spend the night with my mom and dad. Yes I know that is a really big step with my moms health but she thinks that she is ready and I personally think that it can not be any worse for Mackenzie over there then it has been here lately. And at least with my parents she is getting some one on one time.

Our chat with the kids lasted way to late into the night and I really don't think we got anywhere with Kelsey. I still get the impressions that she just does not give a d*** about anything in our household anymore. However I think we made a little progress with Kyle and by the time he was told he could go to bed he was actually talking to me which was the first time since we got them at 1:00 on Sat. That and his spirit seems to be a little better. I hope that tonight goes better then the whole weekend did.

So what is going on with everyone else today? What are these camps that people are talking about thier kids doing?

Alex is leaving for church camp on Sunday for a week. She is going with her cousin and good friend. She is so excited!!!! it is the same camp I went to as a kid. It is a lot of fun!!!!

 

[goofyfreak]

Hey, I'm back!

I missed you guys!

Lots of catching up to do.....

Florida was great, very very hot but great.
F.I.T. was great too.
Animal Kingdom was great and
so was Epcot!

Back to reality....back to work

Welcome home Rose. Glad Fla was great as usual!!!!

 

[goofyfreak]

Do we have a favorite disney charactor question?

Mine, of course, is Tinkerbell.

I know it is obvious but it is Goofy!!!!!! I would marry him if possible!!!!!

 

[goofyfreak]

Ok, before she wakes up, how about some pics!!!



On the gondola ride up to Sulphur Mountain

At the top of Sulphur Mountain.

Overlooking the town of Banff

The gondola

Lake Louise

Us with the Lake as Backdrop

Blowing raspberries

I bought Kira a bear from the gift shop inside the Chateau Lake Louise..we later named the bear Louise

She proceeded to do what she does best

One last pic of her before we left Lake Louise.

I love the pictures. I swear those eyes are going to take her far in life!!!!!

 

[goofyfreak]

Paige, I hope you and your mom and sis are doing okay. That must have been very scary!!!!! Keep us posted on your arrival dates to Va. Maybe we can do a mini dis meet for lunch one day!!!!!

 

[goofyfreak]

F.O.

 

[3pirates&tink]

Cass - loved the pics!!!!! The mountains are lovely and of course, Kira is sooooooooo cute!!!

 

[3pirates&tink]

Robin - Hope all is going okay.......any news on getting some help with mom and dad? I'm glad your brother finally came to his senses!

 

[Timon]

Good morning peoples!!!!!!!!!!

The one thing that shines out of every picture of Kira is what a happy contented Baby she is,great Job Cass.....

She was amazing that day! This was her first big trip and I was really worried. We left around her nap time, she slept from here to Banff (1 hour) then wide awake for 3 hours, she ate her cereal in the restaurant in the Banff Springs Hotel (fancy schmancy hotel that looks like a castle), although exhausted she was very good going up the gondola. She napped from Banff to Lake Louise (1 hour) and then good to go for another 2 hours. We left Lake Louise at 9:30pm and she is normally in bed by 7pm! She fussed a little in the car and then fell asleep till we got home. I was so impressed with her!!! I hope she does that well in Disney World

 

[B9erSteve]

Just popping in to say, Good morning all!

 

[MinnMick01]

I know it is obvious but it is Goofy!!!!!! I would marry him if possible!!!!!

Scott here, Carrie did, but he does not have long ears and a long snout. He is blonde.

 

[MinnMick01]

Scott here, Hi everyone. So sorry it has been awhile for me to be on. I can not wait for this trip to get here soon enough.

Cass I am going to check with my travel agent (DW) to see about headung up there next year. The pics from Banff and Lake Louise were great. I have allways wanted to see Lake Louise ever since I say pics from a good friend of mine years back (his grandmother lived there).

Cinnamike, Sorry the candyman has not talked for a while, oh wait hang on Candy is taking out the garbage to the curb. Ok back now, anyway hope you and Robin are doing good and looking forward to a few games of basketball.

Jeff, thank God for the Diamondbacks great playing. Hope this series really jump starts the Brewers for you.

Jessalyn, Thanks for being there.

Off to swim now and I will try to touch base with everyone else.

Fab photos Cass, we loved Lake Louise and Banff. Amazing scenery, mind you, I was too busy looking at those Kira cheeks to look at the background

Just popping in to say, Good morning all!

Hello - nice to hear off you. Pop in again soon



IO dont want to tempt fate, but I think the pc has decided to play again! - just switched it on expecting it not to work but so far so good - maybe it was the big kick I gave it yesterday

Its been hot here this afternoon - first time in ages - I've been sunbathing in my new garden - the view is enough to make the neighbours put their house on the market

I did a spin class today followed by aqua circuits - holy cow! - I ache already - hot bath for me tonight - no glass of merlot though - being a good girlie - tried on my favourite black dress this morning - waaaaay too tight. Need to lose at least half a stone to even think about it

Its chicken and veg for dinner with no dessert - not even a crumb of cheesecake .

If you hear a huge cheering noise onboard - dont worry - it'll just be my stomach thanking me for finally giving it some decent food after 3 months of starvation. Well, 2 days so far

 

[A fat english gent]

Karen don't even think about going over to Brenda's report,she's just finished the deserts write up, s**t i think i put on 3 pounds by just looking and drooling at the pictures...
