[paulasillars]

Paula - how are you over there?

Exhausted ... I think I need a holiday

I'm so excited that there are so many old friends on this cruise and I'm looking forward to meeting a bunch of new friends too!

 

[paulasillars]

Kia orana, Paula.

Well, I have the logo in my avatar to start. Will that keep me off the plank for a while?

Will,

1st trip to the world 10/18-10/25/03 off site, 1st Disney Cruise 4 nights 9/7-9/11/04,**2nd Disney Cruise/World ~ Trip 3nt cruise 6nt @ WDW (POP CENTURY) 9/1-9/10/05, USO/IOA 3/31-4/8/06 (Spring Break), Marriott S. Palms Beach Club Resort 1/12-1/16/07, Disney Magic Westbound Panama Canal Cruise 5/10-5/25/08

I used blue and dark red to each make entry stand out more. Just copy and paste and you will be good, I think. Other then the colour, all I did was take the hard returns out of each line.

Pj

Wow, I would have never thought of that. Thanks for the tip!

Hello everyone - haven't been on most of the weekend and I missed alot. First, WELCOME to all the new people. Sounds like everyone just wants to have tons of fun and get to know other people - which is always so nice.

I had a question and I don't remember if I read this somewhere or just dreaming. Isn't Southwest Airlines in 2010 going to do international. I know there are probably not a lot of fans of Southwest out there - but I LOVE THEM! We have taken Continental from Barcelona and I would rather poke my eye out with a stick. USAir has been hell for us and so has American so I am willing to give them a try. Has anyone else heard this about Southwest?

Also, ibouncetoo - I lived in Phoenix and loved it till it got to built up. I was by Desert Ridge.

Regarding the food on the cruise - it was disappointing this time around on the Double Dip. For the people out there that like to cook, you probably cook better then the cruise. My husband always tells me that I cook 10x's better then the cruise - I take that as a compliment. I cannot use a computer - as some of you know, but I can cook! We definitely don't go for the food, we go for the fun, friends, entertainment and the sea! We have friends that travel Holland America and they come back, we ask them about the cruise and they talk for HOURS about the food - nothing else. If you want to go on a cruise - just for the food, not Disney, but everything else - DCL!!!!

I haven't heard that about Southwest. We are die hard Southwest users, a big reason because we can usually fly free with them. I would love it if they were to go international, does anyone else have the scoop?

Another SW Airlines fan here! I hadn't hear that rumor, but it would make me very happy.

I've been in the valley for almost 30 years and sure have seen a lot of growth. I was at Desert Ridge this week, having a meal at Mimi's and remembering when it used to be all Arabian horse ranches or open desert up there! I came here from Chicago though and it still doesn't feel like a 'city' to me, except for the traffic

Just thought I would chime in regarding cheerleading. I have 4 daughters (seen in my sig line). The two oldest cheer for their schools and also cheer for an all star competition team. The youngest are not old enough to cheer for their schools yet, but they do cheer for the all star competition team. They absolutely love to cheer and they all look so cute in their uniforms. They had their first competition two weeks ago at Kentucky Kingdom and had a blast (2 teams won 1st place and 1 team won 2nd place). Their next competition is November 1st. I'll have to post a picture when I figure out how.

It's great to get to know everyone and what everyone's interests are. My girls still talk about all the friends they made on the WB panama canal cruise in May. They even still talk and text to a few of them.

I just posted the question about SW over on the Transportation Forum....we'll see what our fellow DISers may know about this.

Willoughbyclan, though we didn't run into each other much on the WBPC (because I rarely left my deck chair up by Cove Cafe) I remember your clan posing for pics in front of the Hummerzine on embarkation day.

Well I can get on with my iphone on the 3g network , but through my wireless internet I cannot ... I try to figure it out tomorrow ...



and only the front page works on megaproxy ...

Well atleast it is a start.....magaproxy will not pull up the roll call bc the page is too large for the free service. All the other pages work as they are small files. If you put the address in the bar...www.transatlanticpirates.com/rollcall it explains that it won't pull up due to size and needs to upgrade from the free account to view it.

Other pages like www.transatlanticpirates.com/links come up though.

For those having signature issues, I have tried to help those who have pmd me regarding the size and what is cut off. Just looking over the past few pages most of the images in the signatures would not have been allowed with the old guidelines of 50000 bytes total for images, so the new guidelines are actually better for you. Todd's image is over 3 million bytes for an example and the large flag banner is over 200k. The smaller version of that is even 77k so none of the group banners would have been allowed in the past. Those morphing images take up a TON of bytes but allow you to get more bang with the space. Hope this clears things up a bit and shows why you don't really want the old guidelines back for the signatures...especially me since the mods had to go through and calculate the signatures manually.

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Good morning everyone,
I hope all my shipmates are having a great start to the week


Welcome Joanne,

Yep, that was us. Wish we could go back to that morning!

I'll be watching for more SW info.

Same age group here also. We will have our 43rd Anniversary 4 days after we get off the ship.

You've got us beat by a long way, but we will be celebrating our 19th anniversary on the ship as well! Also, our youngest DD, will turn 10 the day we are forced off the ship......................................

I get to have my 36th birthday on the ship, wonder if dm will spring for my very first spa treatment?

Tēnā koe Woody. Have you been to this part of the world?

Hei konā

We visited NZ in '07, and just had to return.

In August '08, we spent 22 nights on the north and south islands. We're looking forward to the next time.

Hi all, are we still on first tier pricing for this cruise? I haven't seen a price jump since early morning October 14th. Hopefully, there will be a downward adjustment in price during the summer of 2010. Maybe they should just name this the WB TA EB PC reunion cruise
