September 17, 2006 - 11 Night Southern Caribbean Part 3

[Corwin17]

OK, I'm sure someone got to this before I did ....

I forgot it was time for the 7 o'clock Beagle Break outdoors.
Should be set now. Fed. Watered. Potted.

Kinda like some humans.

So, what do you use for fertilizer to make 'em grow?

No upgrade for us either, We got assigned cabin 2135. Funny, I kept telling everyone that I was probably going to get a "lifeboat suite" well from the looks of where this room is, any further back and we would be outside the boat.
.

Yeah ...

... we got assigned a catagory 11... same size cabin as a 12 and we are located at the far forward tip of the ship... roller coaster country. Well... we did save about $1100 ($750 after adjustment for rebooking discount) so we can't complain too much. But we will have to bring spare batteries for our electric relief bands to fight sea sickness in case of rough seas. And that is the risk we take! SO much for our first try at taking a guarantee reservation... it's OK if the seas are tolerable. Or even better if they shift our cabin again before embarkation! I've heard others have had 2 changes BEFORE embarkation after their initial assignment. Even as late as at the terminal! SO remains some glimmer of hope for a location improvement - or maybe BUYING an upgrade at the terminal. So... we;re gettin' there early to check in!

OK...

.. gotta gather the kiddies fromtheir nap and run for dinner. Although my little green light will remain ON I am out for supper at a little joint called KIM CHEE 2... one of my favorites near Waikiki... and our extended family is gatherign to bid the folks from Boston farewell as they jet tomorrow!

I'll be back tonight - maybe I'll knock off 100 pages of catchin' up?!?! Look for full PAGES with my replies overnite as everone ZZZZZZZZs

 

[Corwin17]

I'll catch up if it's the LAST THING I DO! ... Er.... or... wuzn't dat what Capn't HOOK sez???

Too Funny!!!

no sign of my formal night stuff. Hope that gets here in time.

You mean this formal wear Tony?

Sorry to hear that the MRI didn't go well for you. Your wife talked to my hubby, but nobody told me anything.

Isn't there a Rum Factory in St. Thomas as well. Hey, we may need it before Barbados.

Oh man, I may be in trouble!

I guess Scott really isn't posting anything, hoping for that upgrade! Carol and Doug, of course you will be welcome at the wine and cheese party.

Welcome "Angelgurl".

I also work 4 days a week, but I work 10 hours each of those 4. When I get off at 7am this morning, it will be my weekend.

Yeah ... we're hoping for an upgrade... or at least a shift in cabin location!

 

[captaincrash]

Oh, he won't be hurting too much. Can draw his retirement immediately. What really stinks was that it was not his decision. Everyone wants to leave on their own terms.

Well...

... that sounds better. My previous repsonse does not reflect seeing this entry. Oh well... just the same - I'm glad there was less sting with the forced transition.

 

[captaincrash]

Ah- ha!...

Top of the page... maybe I can sneak a FULL PAGE of just my posts? Well... I should try to keep it fair and relevant ... so lets' give it a go as I work my way backwards through the thread!

 

[captaincrash]

By the way... anytime you want to come to FL, stay at the Mouse House and Dog sit while I am on a cruise ..... the invitation is open...

WOuld ya mind?....

... we'd just bring our dog over to be dog sat while we;re cruisin' with ya too! That would save us a few hundred in kennel fees!

 

[webray]

Where are we meeting Cheryl?

Tijuana Taxi..right around the corner...we can walk if need be..

 

[webray]

She probably couldn't afford the tab.

Here you can...only $2.50 during happy hour...

Finally got all set up here outside. Been a bad week.

+

=

Tomorrow's got to be better. Then there's the weekend.

Worse thing that happened was that a friend of mine and my boss was let go after 32 years with the company. Not because of work performance. Just because it was a financial decision. His replacement makes half as much. Less benis too.

Those "financial decisions" are the worst. Sorry Bob, hope next week goes better.

 

[webray]

Look out Leslie! Next thing you know she'll be on Girls Gone Wild.

I just wanted to stop in and say Hi! DH and I just booked the other day and will be joining all of you on this cruise.

We had originally booked the 10night but had to cancel a couple of months ago. But we were so excited to go I convinced DH that we must reschedule and go on the 11 Night. So we are all booked and very excited.

Welcome Aboard!!

I wanted to get it while CC was on!



Definitely----GOOD NIGHT!

Way to go Bob!! That's my goal before we leave. Hope I make it too

 

[winotracy]

Thanks Tracy - that was my error - trying to rate the station I was on, not mine. You mean I can't bother the DIS community here with my ramblings of Launchcast and yahoo music

Not at all, you just take the risk of me not seeing it. (Peter IMed me to let me know someone needed my assistance).

 

[webray]

DPD....every tried Ketel One, it is better than Absolut and Grey Goose

Or Pravda...that stuff is smooth and fantastic!

 

[winotracy]

Good night everyone...I'm heading to bed too....I have to work tomorrow....yuck...but I get Monday off and I'm going shopping in the US!!!!!

Can't wait to get some Diet Pepsi Jazz Strawberries and Cream so I can try out Bob's mixture!!!!!! I might even pick up the JB DVD....I must learn to do Phins before the cruise....that was I can graduate from being a "Keet"!!!!

I like being a "Keet". We have one here. He'll be staying with grandma while we're cruising.
