Sept 4-8 2005 Wonder S.S. Member Cruise! Part 3

[#1Mouse]

Amy, my picture CD is still here.

I just edited out the bad pictures (or the ones of me in my snorkeling gear ) and now I can't re-write them to the disk. I have to wait until Gary gets home tonight. I did buy the photo mailer so that is a step in the right direction.

But, I did find this one of Diana's luggage while editing:

No wonder that man is wearing a back brace!

Holy Jeepers Batman - I don't even own enough clothes to fill all those suitcases! Did you fly down or drive down?

Was that Amy and Chris I remember seeing with their luggage all linked together like a train?

Interesting post by Doc on the DVC forum - sounds like some familiar questions from the cruise to Jim Lewis -

I told you guys I have a lot of shoes!

Wow thats a lot of luggage.

I am interested in the Circle Journal thing too.

Also sent my CD last night.

I would love to join in the CJ, but definately think it would nice to see some sample pages.


I think Amy said in chat that you can use any size album. I have a small (9" x 9") spiral bound album that I won on the 2003 Member Cruise. I'd love to use that to send around to all my DVC friends!

I have the same album! I was never sure what I would do with it. A CJ would be a good use for it. I'm just afraid that my scrapbooking is not as good as everyone elses!

As for that picture of the luggage - and I thought I had a lot of luggage with me - no contest - you win Diana!

It also looks like his antiperspirant is failing him!

And I thought we had a lot of luggage! I don't know how you managed all of it!

 

[Jenny0725]

OK, here's what I've come up with. Has anyone been to www.twopeasinabucket.com before? It's a really cool website where they have a gallery that people post pictures of their scrapbook pages.

Anyway, go to that website and click on Peanut Gallery. Then, at the top, click on Search Gallery, and put in Disney Circle Journal and about 5 come up that are really cool. Also, if you want to look at more, go back and put in search Disney CJ and it will come up with 2 pages of pictures.

Amy - Thanks for the link. They look really cool!

OMG that is TOO funny!

Yup...it sure is a lot of luggage. And does everyone remember how I said I got those vacuum bags to help getting everything to fit! How many bags would I have had if I didn't use them!

 

[Diana Lyn]

Well, I may as well fess up since I'm going to the mall and who knows what you guys must be thinking of me! That's mostly Cindy's luggage! We only have 4 bags on that pile. All but one of the green bags are Cindy's. I don't have my act together good enough to have matching luggage for the family!

I guess no one counted just how many bags were really there. With all the extra fees Diana would have had to pay for all that luggage, she wouldn't have been able to pay for the cruise.

Yep, we had 8 -- 7 green and 1 black (which is our spare). Who would have thought we needed each and every piece of it and then Mark & Mary not only brought a box of stuff down for us but brought another back.

Next trip we will pack lighter as I now know for certain what I don't really need.

Yep, we're still planning on coming in May. I just haven't made my way over to the thread yet.

Hey Diana - Your picture CD made it here today. Oh, and thanks for the stickers, they are really cute!!!

 

[chipscinderelly]

I'd be interested in the CJ stuff too - but we move in 3 weeks (OMG) and I'm in the middle of packing so I might be a bit behind the 8 ball already.

I still cannot see those photos - bummer - as I love matching luggage.

Promise to hang with you guys more soon, we're just crazy here.

Wow you mail comes early! Mine doesn't come until like 4:00. I'm actually waiting for Halloween costumes from Disney Direct today in the mail. JoJo and Goilath.....Emma is going to freak when she sees she's going to be JoJo. Of course, if they aren't in plastic they will reek of smoke because my terrible mailman smokes in the truck. That's of course if I even get it at all because at least 3 times a week, we get someone else's mail--did I mention he's a terrible mailman?

 

[WDWLVR]

Ahhhh - I think the JoJo costume is sooooooo cute! Be sure and post pictures!

We are very fortunate to have our mail carrier, Matt. Not only does he do his job, but he's friendly and nice. I trust that anything I give him is going to be taken care of. If we're going away, I'll do the mail hold form but then I always catch him so he's aware. He'll tell me that he can tell when his customers are away and even if they don't request a hold, he'll hold it until he sees they are back. He's come back when I've forgotten to put a stamp on an outgoing envelope and always willingly accepts Walker's "special" mail.

When he's off, if I have something in my mailbox going out I pull it because I'm not sure where it will end up.

Years ago, my BIL was dating a mail carrier who decided she didn't want to deliver the 3rd class junk mail. So, she dumped it at the back of my in-laws property. My other BIL found it, and my BIL who was dating her, turned her into the postal service. I believe she was convicted.

Our mailman always tells me that my junk mail keeps him in business. I get a lot of it, especially catalogs and book orders related to the daycare.


I have no idea what my kids are going to be for Halloween but I need to get my act together. Walker is getting out of the Disney characters so I'm certain that will save us a bit. I suspect he's going to want to be whatever Cameron decides to be.

Speaking of mail.... We mailed ourselves 2 postcards from Castaway Cay. OK, I know, kinda lame mailing yourself a postcard....but anyways...We got one Friday and one Saturday! So even with my lame-o mailguy, island time for the mail was only 3 weeks! Most of you guys probably got yours 2 weeks ago and my mailman took the extra 2 weeks to deliver ours!
