Sept 4-8 2005 Wonder S.S. Member Cruise! Part 2

[MaryJ]

Mary,

If you haven't all ready made that trip to Office Max, could you pick up the folders for me. I'm not interested in the binder or spiral notebook. The colors don't matter, but I need at least two different colors.

TIA!

 

[alikat99]

Steph and Amy - I can mail them or bring them down with us (we are driving so that won't be a problem). Let me know which you prefer.

I have this picture of us all showing up at the port in our blinky flip flops and carrying our Mickey binders looking like a bunch of over the hill school girls. At least I know I'm over the hill.

If you don't mind, you can mail them to me. I'll probably use them for pre-cruise stuff. Let me know the cost, and I'll send you money how ever you want (check, paypal, money order, etc).

 

[alikat99]

OMG! Have you guys seen our countdown timers - we are at 40 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG - I can't believe that it's only 40 days. I have so much to keep me busy between now & then, but this is going to be torture just waiting!!!

 

[alikat99]

If I can't find them here I will be heading to your neck of the woods!
My Blinkie search starts tonight!!!!
Hopefully the Blinkie genie will be nice and I will find them in the first store I go to and they will have a HUGE selection.

Have fun on your blinkie hunt. Mine had several, but a lot of them were in the bigger sizes (L & XL). It took me a while to find a M, but they were there. And, they blink in unison!!!

MaryJ- got you down for 2 folders - different colors.


Amy - No problem in mailing. I need to send you the other item we talked about anyway. Edited to add - I'll use it for pre-cruise stuff as well.

I'm heading over at lunch so wish me luck!

You're right!! So, just let me know how much to send you. Good luck in your Mickey folder quest!!!

Back on page 253 (I think) you were talking about this. Where can I get a pattern?

As I said before, I was not on the thread for a long time and the format is different now. How do I send a PM now?

Jan

I have the pattern! They are very cute! PM me your email and I can send it!

The shuttle is about to be sealed, the clock is about 1 hour, but that will be held at some point for final checks before launch, but all looks good sofar. The Nasa channel is fascinating.

 

[alikat99]

I'll have to put the TV on for the girls today to watch the launch. And, if it's a clear day, sometimes we can see the trail all the way over here on the west coast of FL.

Same goes for me Mary. Thanks again

You guys have been very busy these past two days. I have been busy with life and not on the computer!

AA changed our flights! Now we are not getting in until 1:30 on Saturday morning. It is going to be tight but we are still trying to make it to the meet at PI. We are staying Saturday night at the Animal Kingdom Lodge on a AP rate. We have never stayed there before and thought that it would be cool.

After the cruise we are checking into the BWV for two nights. Anyone else staying here?

Went to Walmart over the weekend. I didn't get the blinky flip flops. I was holding them and took one look at my husband and decided I better not! Like I said before... I have a large collection of flip flops and one more pair would probably push him over the edge! I did get the cute little dry erase boards.

Things still needed.... Pirate wear and magnets for our door! I better get busy!

 

[WDWLVR]

Jenny - we'll be at Boardwalk for two nights before the cruise and two nights after the cruise!

My problem is that I'm home with 3 little girls, so my retreat is the computer. Ohhh, I live for 8/15 when preschool starts again.

We are also staying at BWV for 2 nights after the cruise. We don't have any specific plans yet, but we are going to the parks, since we aren't going before the cruise.

 

[Jenny0725]

Amy / Mary,

It will be fun to see familar faces after the cruise at BWV's! Our plans are to hit the parks and the girls will want some pool time.

It is getting closer.... we can't wait!

Yeah, where we are in Orlando (by UCF) you can see the rockets that they send up - so there's a pretty good chance we'll be able to see it too. 1 hour til launch.

Well, got to say this am, the weather totally fell apart overnight. The only people that might be getting nailed by it this am are our Michigan contingent, including Mary/iluvdisney and Gail/#1 Mouse. Still possible spotty stuff but nothing like what was predicted last night. That's good as one nasty blow was quite enough.

We got some storms around 7:30 AM. It didn't last long, but there sure was a lot of lightening!

Still working on our door magnets. I just ordered the magnet paper through the same site that Verandah Man uses and it should be here on Thursday. Then we can get them printed out. Does anyone have theirs done?

We're staying at OKW the night before the cruise. I figured low points, close to PI, and a chance for the kids to check out the new sandcastle slide. I think you'll be fine if you're getting in at 1:30 in the morning. We don't get in until noon, and I still don't think we'll have trouble making the meet (famous last words!)

AKL is a great resort... we're staying there for 3 nights after the cruise, and doing the Sunrise Safari on Sunday before heading home. Too bad we won't be there at the same time.

I hear ya! Only I'm home with 2 little girls and Emma doesn't start preschool until next year! There is no salvation in sight! The bonus is, now that they are both a little older, they are starting to entertain themselves!!

I feel so left out not staying at the BW! We stayed there last year for MH, had an awesome room on the top floor facing the Village Green. This year I wanted to try VWL. I've never stayed there. Anyone else going to be there or will we have the whole place to ourselves?

Animal Kingdom Lodge is awesome. We stayed there when we got married, savannah view room. I didn't sleep at all! I watched those giraffes roam around constantly!

IThis year I wanted to try VWL. I've never stayed there. Anyone else going to be there or will we have the whole place to ourselves? \

Uh, oh... better watch out! We stayed there, and ended up adding on... the funny part is, we had waited a year to join, because we didn't think we wanted to own at VWL. We now own there and at BCV, and love both. My goal is to add on around 100 more points at HH in another year or so.

Then we're done with points, or ds will be paying his own way through college...

Emily loved preschool last year, and she can't wait to start school again. This summer has been frustrating, having my 2 girls and the little girl that I'm watching, but it's almost over. I have figured out that I probably will not watch any other children next summer. I just never got the chance to take my girls out this summer, like to the zoo, park, etc.

We love VWL. It's our home resort and our favorite. We love all the others ones too, but because we live in FL, it's like walking into a different world with all the rustic stuff & pine trees.

Animal Kingdom Lodge is awesome. We stayed there when we got married, savannah view room. I didn't sleep at all! I watched those giraffes roam around constantly!

Someday, we are going to stay at AKL. I think that the girls would LOVE it!! Again, someday!!!
