OK...we have a few hours to make it to 3,000 while Rob is gone...let's get cracking!

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

I'm doing my part! Gina, where are you????

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

Can you tell I'm back!

Doing my part!

I would be very surprised if they don't show Enchanted as a premier during our cruise. I want to see Dan in Real Life. I've heard it was a really good movie, and there was nothing in it that would be inappropriate for older kids/tweens.

You take notes on your cruise to plan the next cruise(s) for the discount.
You're either cruising, or thinking or talking cruises or on the DIS.
When you go shopping for clothes, you think of "how would that look on Pirate's night?"
You have a Disney visa so you can get 6 months of no interest to pay for your cruise, get the $50 on board credit and get all those Disney Reward dollars just for shopping.
You see no problem with spending $5K + on a cruise but question the cost of water and booze and bring your own.
Your deck at home is referred to as the verandah.
Your closet is has more Logo items than the Treasure Ketch.
You could open a small spa with all the Steiner creams and lotions you just had to have and all those little H2O bottles of shampoo and lotion.
You pay nightly visits to the fridge for your own "midnight buffet".
You experience serious withdrawal symptoms within a week of your debarkation from your last cruise but since the next one is booked you must start planning immediately.
You think Disney Crocs are cute and don't feel silly wearing them.
You display the photos you took on your cruises on your refrigerator door as if you were Shutters.
Your family has matching outfits which feature Mickey.
You just can't sleep as well when the gentle rolling of the ocean is not putting you to sleep.
You don't need a map to find anything on Castaway Cay.
You don't understand why DCL doesn't list an over the door hanger in their packing list.
You can list 20 uses for duct tape on a cruise.
You understand that you must pack light but your pack list has 300+ items.
You just can't get that "Hey Baby" song out of your mind.
As an adult, you find no problem with wearing your pajamas or a tiara to meet friends on board for lunch.
Your pillowcase was signed by Goofy.
You have a photo taken in the lobby of the ship with 150 of your closest friends.
You keep your cruise wardrobe ready to be packed at a moment's notice and occassionally must find something to wear from the suitcase.
You wonder why people of all races, nationalities, religions, sexual and political orientations get along so well on cruises and so bad at home.
You find yourself looking at complete strangers and upon seeing their lanyards knowing they are your friends.
You own a fish extender.
You find that taking good care of yourself with regular hair & nail appointments, and the occasional massage, is no longer a luxury.
You spend your spare time designing door magnets.
You turn down opportunities to travel to resorts and to major cities if Mickey isn't taking you by ship.
You are disappointed to see the same scenery you saw yesterday out your window when you awaken.
You question the practicality of going to the supermarket, looking for a parking space, shopping for food, taking it home, storing it. cooking it, serving it, and cleaning up, when it is much easier to just order from the menu.
You have a favorite server.
You walk out your front door, stop and smile, expecting a photographer and your name announced.
You get up at 3 a.m. to reserve excursions.
Your cruise souveniers occupy way too many large boxes but you just can't throw them out.
You check the DCL web site just to see your reservation.
You get home from work and wonder why your cabin steward hasn't made the bed yet.
You call your plumber because your toilet doesn't "sound" like it's flushing properly.
You know all your favorites off the room service menu.
You're not a TA, and still have DCL's 800 numbers memorized.
You have your TA's telephone number memorized.
Your TA has your credit card number memorized.
Your co workers no longer ask where your going on vacation.
You know more about DCL than DCL does.

Laura,

I thought they'd show it too...but it wasn't on the list. I think I'm gonna call again on Wednesday...

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

OK Wendy...before you post something that funny (and true) you must give a warning. My poor computer screen had to be cleaned AGAIN today!

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

30 to go....who's lurking?

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

Hey we're really close to 200 pages! Wow...and to think that we've come so far in such a short period of time....

NAME TAGS ---


Would anyone wear name tags..... with DIS NAME ? I have printed them for past cruises and one year everyone wore them ( At sail away only ) ... It would just have your DIS NAME...... The next year... only a few out of our 30for the meet wore them... They just peel off.... I could also print your name below .... I know a couple of people did not get in on the shirts so they could get in too....

Any thoughts.... I could have them at the sail away party ??

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

Sounds like a good idea to me!

Can anyone tell me if kids get a tour of the bridge? We read somewhere that they do through the kids clubs...but it seemed strange to me (given the security stuff that has become part of life).

Anyway, DS is hoping that they do give tours for the kids...he'd really like to go!

I like the name tag idea for the sailaway party.

I have seen it offered in the navigator. I think it is done while we are at castaway cay and is for any one who sighns up

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

Oh wow! If that's the case then I'm gonna want to go too!

Thanks,

Karen

Okay, just a quick check in this morning before I leave in a couple of hours for my business trip. Okay, FINAL CALL FOR THE MINI-NAVIGATOR!

Please PM me if you have anything you want to add. I have added the Monday night group picture (which was the latest request). Any last minute birthday/anniversary celebrations, send to me so I can put them in.

I will check my PM's and then on Wednesday when I return, I will do the final draft, proofread, and then print Thursday morning.

Okay, that's my update!

Linda, Add that Olivia will be 9, Nov. 25th. Melinda
