September 12, 2009 ~ Last Call for Tortola!

[rotary2808]

Ok guys... I've worked in enough restaurant kitchens to know I'm skippin this one... now if they have tours of the bridge...





Hey Stacey... What part of the shore are you from???

They used to have bridge tours, but when they put in the spa villas and expanded the fitness area, they took out the overlook from where they used to do the tours.

Hey so do we. Can't remember what time though, 6 something, I think. We went to MNSSHP a couple of years ago and loved it and have been waiting for a chance to go back. We're also going to go check out the model room of our new home resort BLT over at SSR before we go over to MK. I'm so excited about that!!!!

We have a 7:45pm reservation so Save some food for us

Family ALWAYS comes first and That is the BEST reason to miss a cruise..

Please tell your son Thank You for us

Sorry you all won't be with us, but at least you are still going so you will still enjoy a great cruise.. Especially in December when it is beautifully decorated for the Holidays.. Tell Mrs Claus I said Hi.. She tells stories at the Christmas Tree in the Atrium and it SNOWS!!! Even on Castaway

Sorry, sorry I lied as I taught this was the SEP27 DD as you are on that cruise also, i guess I'm just having a senior moment tonight..
It's this month's Dbl Dip that we aren't going on, that's why we are going in DEC... Son gets back to San Diego the end of this month.
Getting older is starting to get scarey, being a member of to many DisBoards can get thing confused at my age ...

This trip was canceled due to me and grammy taking the 3 oldest grandchildren on the 22nd Aug 09 western.. Family does come first, as they are passed getting out of school for a cruise with make up work its all getting harder, so we can only do the best we can, when we can..BUT! Prices in August 09 for two rooms cost alot more $$$ than 3 rooms in October 07..
Next years crew

. Except for their mom top row left (new baby girl in July took care of that)..
No Captain Tom is not in our family, just the picture ..
Have a nice week again..

I'm sorry we won't get to meet. Your family look a great and good looking bunch and I'm sure you will have a super time.

Aww don't be mad at him.. YOU try standing up to Sally Field..

Several actors in that movie who I don't like (including Sally) as well as characters so I don't watch it.

I watch Disney
Jan

 

[ibouncetoo]

Oh Jan, you don't like my Sally? I remember when The Flying Nun or Gidget was on TV and I told my older sister "She's going to be very famous" my sister asked me if I was crazy! I said "no, she's going to be around for a long time". Then in the early 70's, when seeing Bill Murray at Second City in Chicago, the first time he joined the cast, I said "He's gonna make it"....THIS time she agreed with me!

 

[JLSE50]

Too Funny... I was looking for where you both said those things too I was looking through back posts and couldn't find it..

Oh and did you know.... Julia's Hubby in Steel Magnolias, is the same man in the newer version of Mircale on 34th Street?

Nope--I watch Disney movies

Have a great time!! No, sorry, we haven't done any tours, but I bet that one is going to be interesting. I hope you will give us a report.

Oooh, let us know how it is. We're doing the tour in Dec. and I'd love to hear all about it. Have a great trip we'll be there on the 26th.

 

[JLSE50]

Oh yes!!!



Yes, go to Guest Services to sign up. I would go as soon as you can as they were just about full when I went and John and I had to do separate tours!!

Can we sign up before the cruise?

Could we get a separate tour for this DIS group?

No, you can't book it until you board. Not sure about the group booking but I'm thinking no. No harm in asking though.

Darn good reason to change your reservation!

Thanks to your family and you son for his service! (Wish we had a saluting smilie.)

Do you want your picture and name info removed from those posts?

Just because they are famous doesn't mean I like them.

Many are stuck on themselves. Some think they can be spokesmen for issues just because of a role they played once.

Some are happy to tell me to drive a little car when they drive SUVs, etc.

Nope give me Disney Princesses and the Fab Five any day

We did it YEARS ago. Loved it then! I would do it again!

Who would we ask?

If someone had a list of everyone interested, was there for early boarding and could sign up everyone at once, it would be a DIS Group tour

But if you have to sign up yourself and your family and cannot sign up a group, that would not work.
