Heather S.
Brent R.

Thanks!

That actually is a brilliant plan, my dear. You probably won't be sleeping anyway (I never do the night before our trip), so you might as well fill those hours as best you can.

Is this why I agreed to work night before we leave?

If you have to ask us, probably not.

If you have to ask us, probably not.

I think it was called $$$$$ myself but could be both

Did everyone see the new info on the DCL website? it now shows what level you are how many cruises you have been on and when and what room and what your benefits are now. It doesn't go into effect until October 3rd on the Magic. I wonder if we will see any benefits from it on our cruise?

Packing cubes and, more importantly, cruise docs have arrived!! Wahoooooo. We are almost there. What the heck am I going to do after the cruise. My life will be a bore fest. This is why I'm trying to convince DH we need to rebook while on the ship.




Julie: Glad you had a fun on your girls trip. But I hear you on the Holiday. It's so tiny!!


Pam: Any wedding photos to share yet. Too funny about the bouquet. Okay, probably not funny to Leissa, but funny story to the rest of us.


Jacq: Love the Mickey glow ears. Too cute.


Wendy: Good luck with Bailey at day care. It's so hard. It takes about 3 weeks for you to adjust. I'm sure Bailey will be great. Just heartbreaking for mommy!!!

To Everyone Stressing:

All you need to bring or buy is duct tape and zip loc bags to fix any problems you have.



Duct tape will fix your shoes
It will close the curtains
It will mend you packing cubes
etc


Ziplock bags will store your wet clothes
Carry Ice to anything
Protect your id/money on excursions

etc

I bet you can make a small cup to hold just about any liquor with that duct tape too....hey the first one might not taste so good but by the 2nd or 3rd ...who the heck cares eh

Ummmm, wow! Can't imagine taking it off...ouch!

I won't go into extreme details, but my oldest DD who is 26 decided that her and her BFF would be this "person" from the game Kingdom Heats for Halloween. Well, this person in the game wears all grey..so they thought it would be "AWESOME" if they used duct tape ALL OVER with no other clothes on cause they didn't want to ruin thier clothes. But to make matters worse my DD's BFF has/had pretty long hair..so she thought it would be cute to put it up in high pony tails and in stead of using rubber hair bands she used....drum roll please.......... DUCT TAPE. Well, to say they had to cut her pony tails out and now she has a cute shag hair do, is NOTHING compared to the "other" hair both of them had pulled off when they PRYED the duct tape off. I could say "oh well, they were just kids", but NO THIS WAS LAST HALLOWEEN. And being the "mean" Mom I am I gave both of them a roll of duct tape in their Christmas stocking.

Rebecca: Yayyy. So excited for this FE. Will make the cruise so much easier for me. I'm horrible with names!! I don't want this to become a huge undertaking. I like FatCats suggestion. Sometimes his are good.

I def don't need ids for my kiddos. But would be great for spouses. Otherwise, just for me is perfectly fine!!!

You rock. And great duct tape story. Yikers!!

 

[kpadalik]

I just booked and so excited, surprised my husband as a retirement gift-He retires Friday and we leave Saturday nothing like jumping into travel!!!

We are looking forward to horning in on two of our daughters family vacation!!!!
Can't wait to sail.

This is fine with me, too. Might be helpful to have relationship on the family member's card too? ie. how does sue feel about being called fatcat? would she rather be fatcat DW? would she prefer to have her own screen name on there? whoa...gotta stop...thinking about it way too much

Ok now go easy on me here. What is up with having to pay for luggage on the plane ? Carry on free, check back cost $20.00 each! For what we pay for airline tickets you should at least be able to take what you need for the trip!
Now we will do some rethinking of packing this weekend. So know I have my carry on bag plus my cpap machine,plus my camera which will be with me. Also have carry one with snacks and FE gifts probably.
We are flying Delta on the way down(day of flight), switch flights in Atlanta ( maybe to pick up a few fellow cruisers) Then for return flight it's American Airlines with a stop in Chicago before we get home to MIlwaukee Wi.

yup..rotten huh? seems to be another nail in the coffin of a dying industry? between the $$ for luggage issue, rising cost of airline travel in general, and with security and delays making the whole flying thing no longer a time saver (at least to where we usually were going), we don't fly much anymore. Was a time when my DS had as many frequent flyer miles as me. Last time the family flew was march 2008 from NC to CA - too far to drive DH and I have used a discount airline for a weekend trip - but only being gone 3 days didn't have to check anything. Good luck with repacking.

to the you have a lucky DH. can't wait to meet you on board.

When flying to the US, I always go without sleep the night before. That way -combined with some nice drugs - I sleep during the flight and will be on Florida time asap. Back; we'll be dead tired after a day of embarkation, US domestic flight, airport running etc. So again, sleep across the ocean. Et voilà; land at 8 am, which does help to beat the jetleg some.

guess I'll be doing a version of this too: work 3rd shift thursday night, off friday at 7am, sleep a couple hrs, pack the car, get the kids out of school, to MNSSHP, hit the pillow very hard at the radisson. turning around from night hrs to day hrs is kinda like my own version of jetlag

Sounds like a good strategy if you ask me!.
