Sept 18 2010 WB TransAtlantic Pirates/Capt Jacks Re-Repoing Repossession Cruise Pt.7

[BoosGram]

For all the kind words about the navigator. I hope people find it useful!

This is just a suggestion, but what if you emailed the finished navigator to everyone and let them print them out at home? Or at least to as many as like the idea?

And you don't mention the crime rate on Castaway Cay. Is Mickey likely to run off with all my money.......

Oh no........... wait a minute...... He already has

Great job Sarah

Sarah.
The naviagtor is wonderful. Just wonderful.. What a wonderful planning tool.

Connie, I like pin #2 with the flags.

Erik, since I will be delivering my FE gifts day one, I can help deliver the lanyards. As soon as I purchase my purse.

I am going to be very sporadic posting the next few weeks. I have to work on the budget before my trip. Please don't toss me out of any groups I've signed up for !!! I'm coming!!!!!

This is the one thing I don't miss about work!!! Every day Stephanie would be coming round the office to the different departments looking for money. You knew it was bad if she carried her little squishy brain punching her other hand with it!!!

here is the BRAIN!!!!

Is there anybody arriving at the Barcelona airport on Thursday, September 16th around 8:30am, that might be interested in being picked up at the airport to do a tour of Barcelona and then possibly be dropped off at your hotel. We are staying at the Pratik Barcelona so a hotel close to that might be good.

Please send me a PM if you are interested.

 

[Tink rules]

I love the navigator.

I like pin #2.

Where can I see the pins please?

DM and DD are you ever going to stay at home?

Pj

NO!!! They've promised to wander over to my house someday!!!

(which means they will have to pass by you and you will have to find a place to park the RV for a few... )

 

[Tink rules]

Has anyone heard yet who is going to be cruise director?

 

[su_kraft]

I tried to avoid showing my ingnorance and nosiness about Captain's Dining was versus Crew Dining (listed on the roll call). I checked the Disney Cruise Line site, looked it up on google and then called the Disney Cruise Line - I give. Could someone put me out of my misery and explain it to me?

I think it was answered, but Captain dining is early, Crew dining is late.

Pin Update

I have asked Jordak to desgin a pin for us, and Noel and John have changed the other desgin so we don't get trouble whit Disney.

Noel and I think both desgin are good but we like to have your opion about wich one you all like the most. So please let us now wich one you vote for.
We like to now before friday.

Desgin 1


Desgin 2
Cruise Pin 2 without Mickey and he added pirates on both sides.

Connie

Thaks ladies!! I prefer pin 2. I am worried that pin one might be hard to read, and it looks pretty generic. Since we ordered extra to give as gifts, I like the more custom fee that pin 2 provides.

Thank You ... I know I just have my son Destin and I on the roll call ... I hadnt added Helen cause we didnt know for sure if she would be able to make it ...(were still going through immigration process , we finally have our interview and hope it gets approved on July 28th) , then we have to get her Schengen Visa for most of the Med trip so we have been running around like chickens with our heads cut off ... all this and we still dont know if my step son Sean (Helens) son will make it ....He is listed and paid for to go but dont know if we will be able to get him from Manila prior ....If he does make it , he will probably fly to the states around Sept 3rd , then turn around and fly with us to Spain on the 6th ....And all this is provided he gets his Schengan approved later today (its actually Wednesday in Manila right now ) at the Spanish Embassy in Manila ...

So if he does get approved for the Schengan , then it will be US immigration's turn to expedite his paper work .. so we are working on it ferociously ...

This is why I am not on the boards much, because were so tied up with my regular work plus getting everything in line for Helen to become a Legal Resident here in the States ....

(Sorry about the lil life story ..lol )

Todd, hoping that all the pieces fall into place and that it is a FAMILY of FOUR traveling!

Ugh...I didn't even think about that. In the past I was able to use my work color printer to print out the lanyard name badges...but my work has changed dramatically (we recently merged with a much larger...and stricter...company) so I won't be able to do that this time around. I was planning on using a place like Kinko's to print them....but Jason & I designed the name badges last night (HOORAY!!! Another project marked off the list!!! ) and they are loosely based on the both the cruise logo with the flags and that magnet that was created by another DISer for the EBTA and then revised for our version of the itinerary. I have to say that i"m really happy with how they turned out and I hope everyone else will be, too....but they do feature the word "Disney" and Mickey's face and several mickey heads/hidden mickey style decorations. I hope I can get them printed without a hassle from Kinko's about featuring a licensed character on them.

I have access to a color printer if they are just going to be on standard paper. If it is a thicker, card stock paper I can't offer any help...

Well it's almost time for my trip to Paris!!!

I've got 2 days in the city and 2 at Disney, i'm back late on Saturday so by my estimation that means i'll have 93 pages to catch up on

I plan to try and check in a couple of times, i've read there is free wifi in some public spots in the city, though i've never tried it for myself....

Have a wonderful 4 days of planning, and please don't talk about anything related to the Cruise, Disney, Outfits, or Ladies Undergarments whilst i'm away....

Missing you all already

SW

We shall miss you too! See ya in part 8!! Sorry, couldn't resist...

I am going to be very sporadic posting the next few weeks. I have to work on the budget before my trip. Please don't toss me out of any groups I've signed up for !!! I'm coming!!!!!

I will be good, and try to remember this! And, while I am on that topi, all you pineapples I got word that we have lost PeterPanStout from the cruise. They were pineapples so that group is now at 14.

How is it that all the cruisers are bringing medication are women?? Everyone knows guys are always the ones who get sick

And you don't mention the crime rate on Castaway Cay. Is Mickey likely to run off with all my money.......

Oh no........... wait a minute...... He already has

Great job Sarah

SW

So, yes, MEN are the ones that get sick, however they are never preparred so the WOMEN have to take care of them...

Crime rate on CC must be high... We all leave with no money and the RUM SEEMS TO BE GONE!!

Please send me a PM if you are interested.

We get in just before 9 and are alos at the praktik. We were going to book transport, but were now starting to think about a half day tour because I am not sure when we can check into the hotel and I don't want to drag our luggage everywhere...

Has anyone heard yet who is going to be cruise director?

I believe it is Brent.,.

 

[pjpoohbear]

Brent is on board for Baltic cruises. I wouldn't mind him or Rachel.

I'm sitting here scratching my head. A couple of weeks ago we saw our cabin # when we logged in to DCL. I just checked the site for some other info and now they are not listing any cabin # for us. ??? Anybody have any idea why they would do that?

 

[MrsMork]

Is it hot every where as it is here. It 6:15 pm and 101 degress. It got up to 103 today. This heat is killing my wrist. Last week i could easily move it with no pain. With this heat I can't bend it down all the way. It going to this hot all week. I need to move to the north pole.


Stephen

only in the high 70's here. Summer may start here soon though....we can only hope!

DM and DD are you ever going to stay at home?

Pj

I hope not!! I want to get on the road soon for a short 6 state loop before we leave for the cruise. I will have a laptop and internet service with me for that though!

Where can I see the pins please?



NO!!! They've promised to wander over to my house someday!!!

(which means they will have to pass by you and you will have to find a place to park the RV for a few... )

Oh, oh!!!! Are you booked now?

And when we come visit you, we can also maybe hop across the border for a bit or perhaps PJ can meet up with us in NY for a day or two!

We have been thinking the same thing. Originally we were going to take the train and then carry our luggage the few blocks to the hotel, but we can't check in right away. I think we are at the opposite Pratik hotels but they are relatively close. Are there specific places you would like to go for a half day tour?

 

[MrsMork]

The navigator is WONDERFUL!!!!!!

 

[tig82174]

I have access to a color printer if they are just going to be on standard paper. If it is a thicker, card stock paper I can't offer any help...

I may just take u up on that...although does ur printer print double sided? The name badges have a front and a back so it needs to be printed 2-sided

 

[Buckeye Gal]

Sandi has provided me with an update to the list of participants for the Scrapbook Embellishment Exchange to include Andrea.

With that said, please see Post #19 for the updated list! Also, if you are participating, please make sure your cabin number is correct.

 

[1DisneyQueen]

Calling all tasters! Here are the tastings that I have been keeping up on. As I get more details on these, or people sign up, I will add those changes here. So, to join please PM me!

UPDATE 7/1/2010 - Signups close on 7/15!!

IF THERE IS AN ERROR OR OMISSION PLEASE PM ME!

I thought there were more tastings than this. Am I confused?

 

[su_kraft]

OK, honestly, this group is too chatty!! I left work for 75 minutes of driving and picing up kids at assorted camps all caught up. I get home and there were 5 pages to read!!! SERIOUSLY!!! I take a break to order ink and watch Day 7 on YouTube and thre are anouther 2 pages to read... Ladies, and gents, are you aiming for part 8 next week??? I know I said it, but I was joking!!


OK, back to business...

I'm sitting here scratching my head. A couple of weeks ago we saw our cabin # when we logged in to DCL. I just checked the site for some other info and now they are not listing any cabin # for us. ??? Anybody have any idea why they would do that?

Were you a GTY status? If so, could be a sign that they are starting to shuffle in hopes to sell more of a certain category? just a guess... Hoping that you get some pixie dust!!

I think we are at the opposite Pratik hotels but they are relatively close. Are there specific places you would like to go for a half day tour?

Nothing in particular. There are a few groups of people going, and I was looking at thier itinerary. We are not particular - we were hoping to check into the hotel, drop luggage and grab a 2 day HOHO pass and then play it by ear. Again my fear is that the hotel will not take luggage at that time of day... Figuring we land at about 9, and will be out of the airport in an hour or less...

I may just take u up on that...although does ur printer print double sided? The name badges have a front and a back so it needs to be printed 2-sided

Yes, I can do 2 sided. And I promise not to peek!!! LOL!!!

I thought there were more tastings than this. Am I confused?

Those are the ones that I am doing, there are others - look at page one, I think the others are lists - not spreadsheets...

 

[pjpoohbear]

They did release TA rates for our cruises today. $25/person/night!!!!! Wish I was still a TA, sigh.... (and I can't sign in to the Disney TA site to cancel the e-mails, such teases.) Only down side to being a TA for a cruise, waiting until after 75 days to book.

I vote for pin 2.

The big thing with using Disney logos and pictures is that you can't sell them. You're not selling them to us or using them for any type paid service.

If this is true, why can't we use it for the lanyard pin, as well as the lanyard nametags?

Or if not, is there something else we could put on the left instead? Ideas, anyone?

 

[Belle1997]

Thank You ... I know I just have my son Destin and I on the roll call ... I hadnt added Helen cause we didnt know for sure if she would be able to make it ...(were still going through immigration process , we finally have our interview and hope it gets approved on July 28th) , then we have to get her Schengen Visa for most of the Med trip so we have been running around like chickens with our heads cut off ... all this and we still dont know if my step son Sean (Helens) son will make it ....He is listed and paid for to go but dont know if we will be able to get him from Manila prior ....If he does make it , he will probably fly to the states around Sept 3rd , then turn around and fly with us to Spain on the 6th ....And all this is provided he gets his Schengan approved later today (its actually Wednesday in Manila right now ) at the Spanish Embassy in Manila ...

So if he does get approved for the Schengan , then it will be US immigration's turn to expedite his paper work .. so we are working on it ferociously ...

This is why I am not on the boards much, because were so tied up with my regular work plus getting everything in line for Helen to become a Legal Resident here in the States ....

(Sorry about the lil life story ..lol )

Wishing you a speedy imigration process and that you are all together as a family. That alone is magical
