They were at second dining with us. Not at our table, we had a table for two.

They sat with Carol and Doug who travel with Sadie and Chewie Two. Two cute Build-a-Bear cats with ADORABLE OUTFITS who came to dinner and sat in a kiddie seat.

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..
gg

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.

Looks like Grumpy Gramps and Not So Grumpy Gran are not joinning us. Our loss. I was looking forward to meeting them.

YOU WILL BE MISSED!

I don't know!

OK .... I"M KIDDING

(Seriously, I have no idea who these people are.)

(No, I'm actually kidding)

If I had access to my smiley list I would have a slap one here!

Aren't they the one who kept following us around the ship???

I even think they tried to hop onto my excursion in Acapulco...

Yep, that was us!

You realize that these people have a history of crashing parties?...

Yup... see... they even have Mom surprised... (I think Jackie snuck them on the trip... )

That is a great photo, but I wonder what your mom was thinking at that time.

Now that had me for a while.

I don't think they were at our table?

No, but maybe there will be room next time. Or on a table next to you all as we don't do too well on huge tables. On our first night they put the 6 of us on one big table for at least 14, with another 4 folk, and they were so wide we couldn't talk accross the table without shouting, and we sure couldn't hear those opposite. We could only talk to those next to us, which wasn't fun. We asked to change to a table for just the 6 of us and that was great.

Morning everyone!!!!

Welcome to all our new cruisers!!!!

Just got back about an hour ago from our weekend at the World. And yes, as reported there was an unscheduled mini dismeet. It was great getting to meet a few people ahead of time. We had a great weekend, managed to see everything that we wanted to see. We didn't get into the Adventurer's Club Saturday night, that place was jam packed. I can at least say I saw it on the last night though. I'm ready for a nap or maybe a cruise...tortolly

Let's see if this works--Carol, Doug and company!

Is that the same Marilyn and John who were on our PC cruise? They live in Bognor Regis don't they?

Or, was it St. Mary Mead?

It was great to meet up with Emily & her crew this weekend - small world! And to think we met cuz of the Transatlantic DCL t-shirt

Shawn & Nicole - LOVED your wedding website - very cool & with so much included. Thanks for sharing that w/ us

Michelle - does this mean YOU'RE FINALLY ON BOARD with this??? *pun intended*

It was great to meet all of you this weekend. It really is a small world. We're talking about one cruise and leads to another and then we find out we're all diser's.

Well Monica... I LOVE the idea!!! But I have to wait until the markets stop dropping... (don't tell Marilyn though... she's likely to steal my table mates... )


Oh and Marilyn... if you go back and look at the picture... I think Planky is about to bite mom's hand... that explains alot... but must tell him next time not to bite the hand that feeds him!!!

He tortolly (I love that! ) went for it so looks like we're in! Honestly, it was easy - I didn't even need to use my feminine wiles! Sooo I've emailed my TA with the go ahead and I'm just hoping we get our fave stateroom...

So now for introductions... *clears throat* ...

Hello, I'm Karen from London, England and I'll be sailing with my wonderful DH Richard. This will be our 5th DCL cruise - our last one was the final Mexican Riviera and on this very date last year we were renewing our vows on the Western Caribbean...

Gotta say this seems a ubercool group of DISers and I look forward to getting to know y'all over the coming months! I'm particularly keen to become a member of the Champagne Girls - that sounds a perfect club for me as I love champers in all it's guises!!!

Welcome aboard It is great to have some more friends from "across the pond"

My GF and I actually booked this cruise in the summer. We are getting married on it. We are really looking forward to it. It was going to be our first cruise but we decided to do a 4 day on the Wonder in January to get our sea legs. I have been sitting here reading through the pgs and pgs of post to pick up some more info and tips to put on our wedding website, but figured I'd throw up a post rather than lurk. I hope this will be a great cruise for everyone.

I love the tortolly btw - that has do go on the website somewhere

Congrats great time to tie the knot

Thanks for the vote of confidence - I just hope the weather hold out.

By the way, DEB and I have a piece of land in Laural Delaware for our retirement home where are you at???

ok guys I'm in need of a hug or 2 today. Just dropped my 'baby' at University for the first time and I feel so strange!




I know she'll have a blast but it's going to be very quiet around here now. Hugs needed please.....

It was great to meet all of you this weekend. It really is a small world. We're talking about one cruise and leads to another and then we find out we're all diser's.

It was very nice to meet you and your family this weekend I look forward to a great cruise with all of you

 

[UKANGEL]

Thanks John x

Hope you and Deb are having fun and a well deserved rest/break

I bet it's much warmer where you are, it's pretty chilly here today and very rainy....wishing we were back in the sunshine of Florida right now!
