September 12, 2009 ~ Last Call for Tortola!

[ibouncetoo]

It's on my list Jackie..... BTW how's the heat now in Arizona??

Still in the 80's......a couple more weeks yet.....

How's the general mood in the US today?

EXCITED!

. I have to look at the ininerary again.

Yep....first day!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Ohhhhhh, look what I found......do you think it will go with our pink fur tiaras? Would everyone use them if I buy them??? Let me know what you think. If you like them, I'll pick them up for everyone to go with the tiaras.

Can you tell that I have a lot of time on my hands???

 

[EllaEnchanted]

OR there's this kind.

The only thing is that the pink color on both of these is a little darker than the tiara. It may clash. What do you think?

Both are great. The colour looks to match the stones on the tiara.

Ohhhhh yeah, I was so focused on the fur that I didn't even look at the stones. I think we should get one or the other. Do we want the big fluffy ones or the skinny simpler ones????

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I think I may be leaning towards the fatter ones. I like them both for different reasons, but I think maybe the fatter ones are just a little more festive. That's what we want.....more fun! Think of our picture with all of us wearing these. Which will look best??? Maybe the fatter ones?

 

[granmaz]

Fatter ones would be good!!! More to hide the fat beneath!!!

 

[Tink rules]

I'm not comenting... Marilyn will get mad at me if I do...

 

[Tink rules]

NEVER......but I was just thinking that everyone should eat some lunch before coming to drink/guzzle down some champagne. That also gives everyone four hours before the first dinner seating.....so 2pm should be good.


We'll try to have it in Diversions again. That was a nice room for us. Very cozy and comfy. We won't have any official information in the way of handouts and video like Karen did for us, but we can taste and tell if we like it or not. We'll have at least four different samples again. We'll definitely have the Rosa Regale that everyone seems to love and we'll have chocolates too.

Oh, this is growing to be even better than the first one and I'm getting so excited to be on board and partying with my friends. We'll have to get our picture taken again too in our new tiaras with pink fur!!!

Isn't that what room service is for???

The fat fluffy one looks great

Was Shawn the wine sommelier on the Magic when you took your last cruise? The guy knows his wines we had such a great time with him at the wine tasting and the night we all went to Palo. He also sent a bottle of Rosa Regala to our cabin when Michelle and Will got engaged he knew how much we all enjoyed it with our Palo desserts

Good Point Marilyn, you're always on your toes thinking. I like that answer!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I'm not comenting... Marilyn will get mad at me if I do...

Ian too! But it's ok coz I posted it to the other thread to get the first champagne girls group's opinion. After all, like you and the Tortola group, they are lifetime members now. Champagne Girls are Forever!!!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Isn't that what room service is for???

NO room service at Diversions......CHOCOLATES AND CHAMPAGNE!!!

Thanks Maureen. I think everyone is leaning towards that one too. Thank you for helping to decide.


We didn't have Shawn or any wine sommelier on the Magic on the WB PC Repo. A DISer friend owned a wine store who was planning on being on that cruise. She was going to bring the case of assorted champagnes and talk about each one.

She ended up having to cancel so she sent the case of champagnes and a printout with written descriptions and she did a video that she narrated as we were tasting. It really worked out nicely.

Unfortunately she no longer has the store. She had to close it so we can't order from her for this tasting. We will order onboard from DCL. Then no one has to carry the case of champagne either. It's heavy.

Maybe we can request Shawn to come and describe the champagnes for us. If you like him, we will too.

I hope he is still on board he is a wonderful guy and he really loves his job and it shows.He is married to another crew member on the Magic her name(I think) is Maria she works in one of the gift shops can't remember which one. He had a great time with my kids because they were all around the same age.

 

[Tink rules]

btw... Deb... Ian might yell but Sukie will want a boa of his own...

 

[EllaEnchanted]

marilyn still won't let me comment... but I like #2...

Thanks for your input Michelle, even if Marilyn thinks you should not comment. Ha Ha Ha!



so what are you guys eating???

I think you can all eat lunch for FREE at noon, come to the tasting at 2pm, leave and go eat for FREE at dinner.

We'll pay for the champagne.....and bring the chocolates with us. We don't want it getting too expensive. Remember $5-$10 per person depending on whether you're a taster or a sipper. Ordering it from DCL instead of Karen is going to cost a little more too. Then it depends on how many people we get to show up.

I said nothing!!
