That was delightful!

I've been over on youtube earlier today watching Miss Marple clips!

Hi Woody. It's definitely a food group on vacation.

 

[KayR]

For all you coaster fans - rumors are that Rip Ride Rocket will be having a soft opening for Universal Guests from 2pm today!

Ok week from (he --double hockey stick )- very raw from finding out a "friend" not only set me up but she did it to gain money in a lawsuit against the company - long story but I am feeling VERY untrustworthy and do not like that feeling . . .

That's awful. Choose your friends wisely.

What time do you think we should book a rental car from on debarkation day? I can't remember timings.

Unless you are planning to race off the ship for some reason, I would think 9AM.

As you have late seating, your breakfast probably won't be over till then anyway (although I can't at this exact moment remember the TIME that breakfast actually is).

9AM is when I scheduled our mini-van pic up.

Kaz, WELCOME BACK!!!! You have been missed. Glad you're feeling better.

..last few weekends before starting vacations. I am getting very excited today while prepping.

Next I'll be getting my hair and eyebrows done. After that will be a mani/pedi...

Thanks Deb!!! That countdown is racing towards us now!!! I've really, really gotta get organised!!! Off to make a list...

Ohhhhhhhh......look at this dessert on the Palo dinner menu. I don't remember seeing it before, but probably because I always just want Panna Cotta.

It's shaved pineapple over almond custard and very lightly fried.....

Looks like I'll be having two desserts at Palo dinner!

[CustardTart]

That looks sooo yummy!!! I don't remember it either but I love pineapple so I'm definitely going to give it a try... So funny, the sight of the Palo plate gave me a little shiver of excitement...

I had a snappy comeback to this all prepared, but I forgot it.

OK, I think it's just about that time again for ...

The Japanese T-Shirt Folding Technique Video!

Saw on another thread that the August 15th sailing may have to miss Tortola because of Tropical Storm Ana. Fingers crossed that we still get to go!

From what I've seen, I have some friends on Facebook that are on that cruise, they've been switched to a Western itinerary.

Well that would be fun for us doing a B2B then!!

Oh wow, really!!?? We were booked on that cruise originally!!! Obviously I'd rather be on the Magic than not BUT I really hope we get to do our special Eastern itinerary. Fingers crossed, peeps...

We were on the Aug 15th too (would have been spending my actual birthday on Castaway Cay) until we changed to this one. Better on the Mickey Boat than not, but I am really looking forward to Tortola (however, I haven't done a Western yet either, so that might be interesting).

Que sera, sera!

That just plain sucks!

Some people just need to be fed to the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal.

Hitchhiker's guide. Another one of my favorites (though I did not care for the new movie very much. I preferred the BBC version).

The pressure is on me now. Not only have I got to start organizing myself, DH and the kids (the kids who STILL don't know we are cruising in 4 weeks...), but now, Whole Foods better have that biodegradeable sunscreen! (I suspect that Whole Foods, if anywhere, should have it - they have that kind of stuff!).

Happy Saturday to one and all...

Thanks Deb!!! That countdown is racing towards us now!!! I've really, really gotta get organised!!! Off to make a list...

So, how went the organizing today folks? Any progress made towards getting ready for the trip.

Against my better judgement, I started designing door signs for ourselves today. I came up with two. Not sure which I will use.

It was a busy day for us, sort of cruise related-ish.

We took the dogs to the groomers, so that took up a chunk of the day, either dropping them off then going home and waiting until we could pick them up.

Fun afternoon, we went to a vintage clothing shop which was a HUGE mistake.
