OK i'm SERIOUSLY WORRIED ....

It seems that not a day goes past on this board without someone breaking a bone! or damaging their body or property or having some kinda mishap....

Does any one else notice this trend ???

I only mention it because i've got to spend 2 weeks with you people and i'm starting to worry that this stuff might "rub off" on me.

Maybe we could all bring big rolls of bubble wrap and all the WBTA Disers could encase themselves at Barcelona not to be unwraped untill we reach the mainland USA.

Can you all start being a little more carefull, as i'm starting to like you all and don't want to see any of you in traction before (or after) Sept 18th.

SW

Nacho hope your arm feels better super soon..

Oh i did this FAB bike tour in Krakow last year.

It was rated as the No.1 thing to do on Tripadvisor.

You get to see much more than a walking tour and have real fun chatting with your fellow cyclists. It's a great choice for a "first thing" to do in a city as it gives you a good overview of the city and really help orientate you for the reast of you stay.

.

Oh believe me i'm Super Duper clumsey but always manage to break "things" around me rather than break myself (well most of the time)

ALTHOUGH.... I'm a Non dirinker but i've signed up for a couple of the tasting (because they looked like fun) so whats the betting i'm the one who ends up tumbling down the stairs LOL

Ive never been to krakow, I love warsaw, Lens dad was polish, faught in world war 2 then settled in scotland.

I was originally planning to go to Warsaw but i work with some Polish girls who told me i should really considder Krakow instead, i had such a good time, and stayed in a beautiful apparment. Now i really want to go back again. But Warsaw is certainly on my to do list.

Thank you for posting our picture to the roll call so quickly. Sorry I didn't get it to you sooner, but my old computer crashed and I had to get a new one. I forgot I had backed up all my pictures on my external hard drive so when I remembered today, I sent one of the few we have of us together, since I am the one usually behind the camera.

Nice pic of you 2.
Ive been trying to post for weeks and still cant do it
Must be the anti virus DH put in won't allow it ... or something else. Like me

[TheDisneyGirl02]

They also love coming round and playing with my Disney Stuff. Don't touch the classic collection!!!

SW

I have a small classic collections, but they are ALL behind glass, safe and sound from young and old alike!

 

[tig82174]

Also, we have removed the lanyards from Roll Call as that is closed, and we have posted the the information that Eric has in his spreadsheet on the Lanyard Page. This will be updated when he is done so that everyone has access.


Sue

Thanks for doing that! There are further updates loaded to the page right now that I received overnight and during the day today. Still waiting on quite a few more folks, but I'm definitely at over 50% of my list confirmed and/or corrected---so that's a great start. Right now it's looking like we have 225 lanyards spoken for....but I think some of those are still folks who have dropped of the cruise since first signing up.

Sue - I lost track these last few weeks. However, Eric & Jason may be able to help with the drop outs at least as some of them are likely to have now dropped off the Lanyards list?

The cancellations who have contacted me are:
jenkh
mom x4, grandma x4 & The Hammer
SueTGGR
TiggerTails57
Tink2020

In addition, I haven't heard back from Jewelmicky directly, but I have had more than one person PM me that they have also dropped off the cruise....no not sure if that's accurate or not.

 

[Terapin]

Greetings everyone! I had originally hoped we'd be able to get the lanyard spreadsheet up on the website (and we will eventually, don't worry), but our webmasters are very busy, I think (imagine that---having full time jobs and real lives and all! ). Anyhow, I have found a way to link to the lanyards spreadsheet here in a post. So I am going to post a link to the lanyard list at the END of this post---this will be a detailed message/post so please read the whole thing!!

Please open the link at the end and take a look at the list to help me check for accuracy. Please send me a PM on here with any changes or corrections you need. So as you are looking over the list, keep the following things in mind:

1.) The list is in alphabetical order by DIS Screenname. If there are multiple people in your traveling party with different DIS names, they are listed alphabetically under their OWN DIS name (not yours) so look at the list thoroughly. If there is only one DIS name for a group, then all names are listed sequentially with that one DIS name.

2.) Please make sure you are ON the list in the first place. If you feel like you ordered lanyards but you don't see yourself listed, let me know and I'll make sure you get added.

3.) Please check for the accuracy of your DIS name: make sure it is spelled right and that the caps and punctuation are the way you want it to appear on your name badges.

4.) Please make sure that the person who actually USES the DIS name is listed first in your party. The reason for this is that on the name badges, the primary user of the DIS name will have their DIS name printed beneath their name. All other people in your party will have that DIS name printed beneath their name but in parentheses and a different color. (Note: This will help so when people see me and my name is ERIK with the DIS name tig82174 under it...they'll know me. When they see Jason, my DP, they'll see his name JASON with MY screenname under in parentheses (tig82174). People will be able to see his nametag and say, "OH, you're traveling with tig82174...yadda yadda..." )

5.) Please make sure that the first names of everyone in your party are spelled correctly the way you want them to appear.

6.) Please make sure that the stateroom is correct. If your party is staying in multiple staterooms, I ONLY WANT ONE STATEROOM FOR YOUR WHOLE GROUP. (If I bring all 10 of your lanyards to that one room I will assume that whoever is in that room can distribute the lanyards to all 10 people in their party in whatever rooms they're in).

7.) If no stateroom is listed and you have a room # now, please send it to me. If you are still GTY, please send me your room # as soon as you have it.

8.) Check to make sure your B2B status is correct. If you are doing the B2B with the last Med cruise, there should be a "yes" in that column. If you are ONLY on the WBTA then that column should be left blank/empty.


(FINAL NOTE: If you see someone on the list who you KNOW FOR SURE has dropped off the cruise, please PM me and let me know. We don't want to waste time and money ordering lanyards for folks who won't be on the trip with us! )


OK, so now that you understand what I need from you, to visit the spreadsheet in its most current format, click HERE.

Ours is correct, as is the one for Tru. Thanks so very much!

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

Fixed it. Don't know why I only changed it in one place, but I changed it for the full group now. Thanks!

Thanks!

Well i had fun at work today. Enter a building and walking into an elevator the door close on me. I had pain in my arm and hand so they sent ER.

Aren't those supposed to be where they do NOT shut on people and hurt them? ugh!!!! I hope it heals quickly!

Welcome aboard!
.... and you ARE a cool uncle!
.... and I can't help you on the info you requested. We booked our own flight and our own apt at Barcelona and it was a lot cheaper than with DCL. But also we were on a waitlist for the pre-stay (hotel) thru Disney... and nothing opened up for months and months. So unless some open up later- you might not even have the option of booking the hotel with them. Sad to say. But it's pretty expensive, even if you are able to....

OK i'm SERIOUSLY WORRIED ....

seriously!
Every cruise I'm always praying "please Robert don't break any bones. please Robert don't break any bones" (cause he's the definition of a boy who is not afraid of anything, and therefore he's the one that always get hurt! LOL)
I'm wondering if everyone else is getting his "injuries" since I've been praying HE doesn't get them? LOL I hope not......
(but knocking on wood that saying this doesn't cause Robert to end up injured...)

Luckily we will have designated walkers, I believe to get us safely back to our cabins or to Cove Cafe to crash on the loungers.
