September 22, 2007 -- WESTERN

You know it, I know it, but I'm going to shout it anyway...

THREE WEEKS UNTIL WE LEAVE FOR THE CRUISE!!!!

Karen, should I rub it in by saying that we only have ---
2 Weeks and 6 Days Till We Leave!!!!!

 

[CustardTart]

That's OK Eva, it's all good! Just sitting here looking forward to taking that first sip of Bahama Mama...

 

[eva]

Karen, You're right! It is all good! Especially since today is Friday and we have a 3-day weekend coming up here in the US.

 

[CustardTart]

Nice!

We had one last weekend so DH's enjoyed a 4 day week...

Took my DS14 to see Rush Hour3 yesterday and on our way thro' the mall (Bluewater - the biggest in Europe) I saw so many gorgeous tops and dresses I may have to rethink my whole cruisin' wardrobe!

He's back to school next Wednesday so I can see a shopping trip happening on the Thursday...

I'm so happy about the 3-day weekend. We are taking the whole weekend off from working on my DMIL's kitchen. We finally got the plaster board up during the week. And now we have to wait for the plasterer to come in and do his job. It is the one thing that we hired out completely. Steve doesn't trust him enough to keep the floor clean. So he won't put the tile down until he is done. So 3 whole days of relaxing!

Sea Raisins! Chris, you crack me up!

Karen, I have to stay away from the stores. I really have everything I need. I was really good this past Sunday and just bought my Keens. But I'm not sure I can keep control if I venture out again. The sales are really good right now, and I have a tendency to go crazy when there are good buys to be had.

Since tomorrow I have a family reunion to go to and I'm not sure if I will get a chance to jump on the DIS:

September 1st Makes 6 Months Smoke Free!

Well, off to work I go!

September 1st Makes 6 Months Smoke Free!

That's excellent news, Eva! You must be very proud of yourself...

 

[papa]

Congratulations to Eva for 6 months smoke free. Congratulations to those that have their documents.

Tomorrow the 1st of September is our 35th wedding anniversary. To celebrate, Kathy will be sleeping during the day as she is on a run of 4 nights in a row working 12 hour shifts. I will be baby sitting the grand daughter as her mom and dad work. Laundry to do and meals to cook. Ah love, it is a wondrous thing. That is why we will be celebrating our anniversary on the ship. No jobs, phones or cooking Mike

Did you fill out your documents for all three cruises on line and print the signature page for each? If so, you should be fine. You only need the luggage tags for the first cruise, since you can leave your luggage in the room. You may have to ask for a couple extra Bahama immigration forms to fill out at Guest Services. But otherwise you should be good to go. Only 5 days now for you. How exciting!

I tried to do on line check in... it wont let me. I get to the part that asks... where are you going once you leave the ship, DCL told me to put "other". I did and now I can't compleat the rest because "other" want to know where "other" is !

Im just a bundle of excitment right now. I have 3 paddle day left and 1 more weight watchers weight in and 6 days of packing and un packing.
And a little bit of housekeeping too. Then the usual beauty treatment...a hair cut.

EVA.... congrats on being smoke free... way to go girl

Mike and Kathy.... HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

Everyone... Have a "Magic"al Friday!

Hmmm.
I am trying to figure out what my first drink will be.

According to most Navigators the Bahama Mama is the drink of the day.

I have to try to get it in the non Hurricane plastic cup because I really do not need the cup.

Are they still $3.50 ??? I read somewhere DOD went up to $3.99.

Since my first buffet will be in Parrot Cay I may have to go with Cape Cod Margherita. I only drink Cape Cod Margherita's in Parrot Cay.

Decisions Decisions.

 

[papa]

I think that the first drink of the day for me will be a Nehi belly washer, (aka-coke in my 32 ounce bubba mug) Mike

[CustardTart]

Wishing you a very Happy 35th Anniversary, Mike and Kathy!!!!

 

[scottrob]

Tomorrow the 1st of September is our 35th wedding anniversary.

Congratulations Mike. You must have stolen your bride from the cradle!

 

[scrapperjill]

I think I may go for a Miami Vice Maybe.....


Congrats Eva on being Smoke free for so long.

 

[eva]

Hmm, can't decide on the first drink. I love BBC's! But I will probably be eating lunch first thing and I don't think a BBC really goes with food. But I will be having one for dessert.

I'm up trying to get a glimpse of the Magic arriving at port today.

 

[CustardTart]

Saturday greetings, everyone!

Come what may, in 3 weeks time I'll be sipping (or should I say slurping) the first Bahama Mama of many...

Possibly gonna need one of these to really get the party started...

 

[CustardTart]

Just reading about TS Felix - possibly to become Hurricane Felix! Prayers and to all in it's path...

 

[papa]

Had the littlest one today. That baby girl is high maintenance.

Hope that everyone is doing well. Mike

 

[Bareacuda]

Today was great! Very hot but great.
Won 2 races and swam about a 1/2 mike and worked with the underwater camera.

I think we all need to send some PD to TS Felix.... to keep it that way. I dont think the people in those areas need another one.

So... how's everyones weekend?

wondering how many ppl three weeks from tonight will be in one of the clubs, relaxing on one of the decks, or already in their stateroom.

for me i imagine i will be in my stateroom either chowing down on Disney Choc Chip cookies, or already asleep getting ready for the next day.

three weeks isn't that long so everyone better start practicing their packing soon.

i have my clothes in closet but need to iron before packing. i didn't really unpack except clothing from the June cruise. so hoping and thinking i don't have much to get together to pack other items.

well better hit the bed, read a little and hopefully a good nights rest.

oh weather here today and thru labor day is to be rainy and stormy. so looks like good weekend and holiday to sleep, and read a good book.
