Hi everyone...I'm bumping us back to page 1

Have a great Easter tomorrow

 

[power_alaska]

We fell off Page 1??? I must be getting senile now that I am old!!! Either that or I am spending too much time on eBAY!!! Actually, I went off on a "fishing essentials shopping trip". Can never have too much fishing gear!!!

Thanks SmilingMouse

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!!!

DST is only two weeks away!!!

 

[power_alaska]

I love the true meaning of Easter & the symbolism of color white HOWEVER, I am SICK OF SNOW!!! It is time for winter to end!!!

As you might be able to surmise, it is snowing AGAIN...

HAPPY EASTER!!!!

Can you believe it? Work was cancelled due to snow!!!

Actually, it had do with road conditions & safety ...

Well, back to the 1st Page

 

[smilingmouse]

Well, it looks like something good came out of the snow, right. Less than six monthes til Iafternoons at Quiet Cove with a book and an alcoholic beverage....

 

[power_alaska]

Congrats!!!!!

You musy be excited...I hope your retirement will be happy

My only question is: which bar
There are several on the ship......

See you soon

 

[power_alaska]

ALL OF THEM

 

[smilingmouse]

ALL OF THEM

I suspect these visits will get more and more interesting as we go along

So, where are we starting?

 

[power_alaska]

Well, obviously you have to start at the bottom stern and negotiate your way thru until you reach the top bow.

That way, you can use the forward motion of the ship and gravity to work your way down again ... which could be extremely useful if you are crawling.

 

[kcatoir]

LOL
No one told me this is where the party was happening.
Happy Belated Birthday Dennis Have a drink on me.

Did we scare Susanne away????? We're on your side I promise

I want to go NOW , Thats me at work this past week if anyone was wondering. I could REALLY use this cruise TOMORROW!!!!!!

Dennis I like it that you have already worked out your Bar hopping to include a increasing state of Inebriation (sp).
You can just roll everyone back to their state rooms at night.

Cujobugs: Sorry I have DD10, no DS's.

We THOUGHT we were going to have an early spring here but NO, Easter sunday brought an all day down pore.
Can't complain too much since Southern Oregon has had its dryest winter in something like 500 years. Imagine Oregon haveing a drought.......Ironic isn't it

Makes me long for the warm Carribean and a cold fru fru drink

PLEASE NO ONE bring dog hair!!!
Sorry I have a thing, and yes I have a dog. Just can't stand the smell
I'd never make it as a dog sledder.

We took our last cruise in September and I loved it but it is Quite WARM.

O.K.
Cruise: $3500
Rental Car: $100
Snorkeling with the stringrays: $75
The looks on our faces as we stumble from bar to bar:
Priceless,
OH the memories we will have!!!!! I think

Ok I better go but I won't stay away too long, the party's just getting started

Gee, why didn't I think of that

Somehow, I suspect we'll be taking the elevator back to our staterooms....navigating the stairs will (likely) be too difficult

Kcatoir,

Please join us....the more the merrier will DEFINATELY be the theme for this party....a bunch of DISers+several "watering holes"+a "sampling" at each watering hole=crazness and lots of fun....

Why aren't we there yet
Have a great evening all!

SUZANNE74 - Come back!!! To heck with the NAP police!!!

Welcome back KCatoir... I have been just hanging out here as winter in Alaska is still hanging around too. Snow during the last week & 5 degree temps yesterday morning. Good news is that I get to go steelhead fishing NEXT weekend. Definite sign of spring!!! Thanks for the Birthday Wishes too ...

As you can tell SmilingMouse and I have been engaged in discussing a wide variety of the cultural amenities and community activities of shipboard life.

Oh, by the way SmilingMouse, how exactly are you going to reach the buttons on the elevator from the floor? Stairs you just have to keep crawling (or rolling down) ... of course there is the problem of those heavy stateroom doors & reaching the door knob

BIG TIP for the Room Steward if they are around at the time ...

More later ...

Dennis

SO glad we are just down 1 flight of steps from Diversions. DH wore out the rug last Septemer running up and down for his "Guinness for Strength."

 

[cujobugs]

KCatoir: Absolutely loved the "priceless" poem. Thanks for a great laugh.

To the party bar hopping crowd: I will probably be in my room that late at night, (married with children) so I can be everyone's designated driver. Just call my stateroom and I can lead you back to your door safe and sound. I can even press the elevator buttons for you as you lay horizontal on the elevator floor. The other family we are traveling with is a single mother though. She may be out there partying the night away with all of you.

kcatoir: By saying "I love cruising in Sept. but it is quite warm.", just how warm are we talking? 90s? High humidity?

 

[power_alaska]

CujoBugs -

HEAT - My experience is Warm 70's definitely, 80's probably, low 90's likely. Chrystina got 2nd degree sunburns on a Carib cruise in December. Will be REAL comfortable. After you have sat in the lounge chair for awhile, you'll enjoy that cloud overhead. Will actually feel cool for a few seconds.
Humidity never seems to be too much of a bother on the ship. Can get warm & wet on shore excursions.

Elevator Buttons & Doorknobs Assistance -

Luggage - Saw your post on the other thread. YOU have to pick up your luggage and bring it through customs. Disney Bus will drop you off at the airport with your luggage, BUT, I am almost 100% sure you will have to deal with it to have it checked. There is NO WAY that TSA would (should)allow it to pass through without the owner.

My view anyways

Dennis

 

[power_alaska]

Does anyone know where they hauled Suzanne74 off too?

When she didn't show up for the meeting we elected her in charge of the Bon Voyage Party.

Somebody has to locate her!!! :thewave:

I would absolutely hate to think that she has dropped off because of those foolish responses to a simple question.

Need to sprinkle some Pixie Dust and find her...
