It's Monday, 8:36, I've been in the office an hour and my day has already sucked. I can't stand some of the people I work with. Is it Friday yet?!?!?!
Boy do I need this vacation.

You are doing better than me. I have been at work an hour and done nothing work related. I've printed FE list, printed one more magnet for my dad, read posts, made list of things to do the next 3 days and things left to pack.

FE question

I am assuming that there are other boards and chats and stuff that also do FE's right? So that mean we can't just walk around and put our gifts in every FE we see. We need to follow our list.

As for giving them out
Deck 1 - easy, 1 room and its mine.
Deck 2 - easy, only 1 room on one side of the ship. other rooms are all on the other side.
Deck 5 - easy, 1 room
Deck 7 - easy, all rooms on one side of the ship
Deck 8 - easy, only 3 rooms

Deck 6 - OMG, are you kidding me? Rooms both sides, both ends. It will take forever to give them out. Maybe I'll just skip it.

Hey I just read that this weeks Magic Meetup group went over to Jetty Park Saturday morning at 5:00 am and watched the Magic come home for them..

Neat idea... hmmmm.. Wonder how many of us really will be to excited to sleep and will be awake anyway?

As much as I'd love to, it won't be me. Not with a 4-year old.

Wow Jeff.. Just a little negativity there huh?

The DIS is really the only community that does FE's but even with that said I would be using the list provided.

You just never know

Steve-

Just wanted you to know I was thinking of you today.. At least I was when I saw this:

Negativity, nope. Just frustration with work stuff and the desire to be on a big ship and not here in a big office. Friday can't come soon enough.
We have been waiting a long time for this trip and my guess is the next four days are going to be the longest days ever.

Today and tomorrow are filled with gathering, planning, packing, and chaos. That being said, we're making these 2 days part of our fun. I am going to enjoy them along with everything else this week. It's all in the attitude, dude.

Ok, I leave tomorrow with my three kids. Home today, have Disney & Caribbean music going. Packing all the last minute stuff. But still stressing. Maybe a drink might be in order, I think I can make it till noon!

So here is the latest family debate. We need a new device to take pictures for the cruise. My digital is too slow and my husband does not want to take his really good camera on the cruise; we don't own a camcorder. We are looking at digitals with the least delay time that are less than $500 or a camcorder that has still picture capability (hopefully less than $500). Anyone have a digital camcorder that they like or any arguments for/against the camcorder? I'm leaning toward new camera, but DH wants camcorder. Help?!

 

[DMMom]

Yeah! I got to 50 posts. Met my goal in plenty of time. LOL

I LOVE my digital camera (less than $500 - and WATERPROOF). It's an Olympus 1030 SW. Waterproof, shockproof (you can drop it), freezeproof (to 14 degrees), and squishproof (to 220 lbs). Yell if you need more info on this.

Canon G10 is what you want.. One step down from a DSLR in size but not quality.. FAST shutter speeds, outstanding video.

Pop Photo, Photo Today, B&H all rate it as one of the best. I have the G9 and LOVE IT. 4 1/2 stars out of 5 on Amazon

i'm with you..No negativity is entering my world this week, when it tries I just think of Castaway Cay

That's what a DH is for LOL

I never bought my new camera like I planned. A couple of days left. Early Christmas gift for me???

I have posted part two of my pre-trip report.

You may want to check it out as I am introducing Walter to everyone. Walter is a friend who has decided to join us on the cruise. He is really fun and very cute!!

Here is the link, or just use the link to my website below and you can get there that way.

Shell, I just bought the Olympus Style Tough 6000 for my son. He had broken my nice camera earlier this year by dropping it so I love the fact that it is drop proof. Have not even opened it up yet but sounds like you really are happy with yours. Can not wait to give it to him tomorrow.

Kelly:

It was a pleasure being introduced to Walter. He does look like he will be a fun addition to the cruise.

Will he be joining in on the FE Exchange?

My girls want to know if he will stop in and introduce himself on the Kids chat tonight!

Kristin - Both Kelly and I checked with different sources and determined that if you are staying on points (members or guests) then wifi is free.

We pay for the perk, so it makes sense that our guests get it too.

William,

Thank you to both you and Kelly for checking for me! I appreciate it!
