Very much looking forward to May. Tammy one of these years itd be grand if you could join us.

 

[karajeboo]

All caught back up! I remember at 12 years old just being really and truly moved by Pearl Harbor. To this day it is what I remember most about our Hawaii trip oh so many years ago.......

Yeah, I think mouthy is frowned upon. They have ways of helping you overcome that really fast, I've heard! [/COLOR]
HA when I met E he used to try and persued me to go into the corps but I used to say the same thing my mouth would get me in trouble and my body would hate that

Welcome! That's so exciting! We were booked to do that same vacation, and then I earned a free cruise to Jamaica instead so we cancelled -- you'll have to let me know how you like it - I am still thinking about that. Have you cruised DCL before?[/COLOR]
OMG where did i miss that Jamaica amazing... so proud of you. Really cant wait to hear about that trip!


Drea, you're so funny! The corps is part of the Navy, or was - right?
Ya it still is a dept of the Navy.. the MENS dept (as E & my dad used to say) but now I have female friends in it so I cant say that LOL

You and Laura are going to be like Peas and Carrots, I think! You'll have to have your own names - Chips and Salsa?

Oh Salt and Margarita is a good one! I hope it can happen, too. Laura! Put down your axe! Oh, it's only your You go Girl!

I'm hoping that I can go in May - I'll test the waters after we are settled!

I don't see how you can visit it and not be changed forever.

Chips and Salsa I like it

That one is my fav - not because it was my idea or anything.

Okay, what happens in 13 months? Oh, Ellen is coming out to DLR and you will be there too! Drea, maybe we will see you before then, even. We are sort of planning to be at DL for Christmas - call us crazy if you want!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

P.S. Drea - the TR for the Jamaica trip is in my siggie - "on the Disney cruise..."

 

[marvali]

Sorry I haven't been around much but I'm all caught up again! Loved seeing the pictures of Aulani, and of course also being a history buff of especially of WWII and the Pacific battles, I really enjoyed all the pictures from your tour. When we were in Hawaii we didn't visit the Missouri, so seeing those was really great!

Oh, and since I have been so busy I'm glad you spared me having to pull out my lawn mower............

Well, you know that Elfis makes alot of trouble, so you probably should stay home for a few years and watch him.

Ha! Ha! I thought you had read that TR! I was thinking, "Now where WAS she when this happened?"

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I just realized today that a year from now our vacation will be almost over. That means we get to make our DVC ressies in 27 Days!!!! (just thought I'd let these guys out of the box)

We have not cruised NCL before but we have been on Carnival 9 times and Princess twice. This vacation was supposed to happen last November but DH was hospitalized for his gallbladder and the trip was delayed for a year.

Awesome.

I'm happy you are getting to do it now!

Awesome.

Thanks for celebrating with me - only us DISers know how to celebrate the milestones so well!

I am on board and cannot wait to read all about your trip! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Thanks for coming along!

MO MO

I think this is steerage:

Stopped by the pay window to get paid in cash! All $120.00 of it!

Stopped by the Post Office to mail a letter home – stamps are 3 cents!

A senior NCO like Jim would have had this room – living in a closet, but no roommate!!

Time for a trip to the dentist

Lounge for the Sr NCO’s – great for the perpetual 6:30 am meetings!

Back on top, looking over toward where our hotel was

Scottie Beam me Up!

Oh! Oh! The red phone! I’m pretty sure you can talk to the President on this one – IF he cares to know your phone number that is!

Notes from 1992

Some of you tech heads might like these photos of equipment – hope so

Secret Balcony, like the Disney Magic and Wonder

Enemy planes ! Man the Guns!

Preferred Seating

Jim took a turn as captain

“This is your Captain speaking!”

I think this is what my DB and DBIL did on their ships – about 1990 – something to do with power

All shined up!

All finished with our grand tour, we left the Mighty Mo and headed out to find us some PINEAPPLE!!!

“This is your Captain speaking!”

On the Love Boat? Spoken in a sultry voice?

On the Love Boat? Spoken in a sultry voice?

Of course!

 

[eandesmom]

GREAT update! I love all the pictures, how incredibly neat.

 

[kmedina]

After seeing where everyone else sleeps, I think Jim would not mind the closet sized room to himself. I love seeing pictures of everything. The plaque regarding Japan's surrender is fantastic. Neither of my FIL's (both served in the Navy) ever mentioned there was a dentist on the ship. That is awesome. I've been going to the dentist every six months since I've had teeth. My DH skips years at a time. Even the men on ships do not have an excuse to skip it!

 

[MEK]

That is a great pictorial tour of the USS Missouri! Thanks!
