[4fosterkids]

4 Fosterkids!

I believe we've sailed together before! Great ta see ya again here!​

Hi Crash! Thanks Your right, we have sailed together. I see your still the Captain of graphics too

Well..we can board on January 6th..but we have to get off on the 23rd....

They usually let on about noon and you should be exiting about 8:30-9:00

Thats what I thought Des...but with so many people commenting they had to leave so early in the morning...I thought maybe we were boarding earlier then normal.

Happy Saturday Everybody!

Soooo, has anyone given any thought to getting an item printed to identify our Dis'er group? We've done silicone wristbands on a previous cruise (lime green, of course). Other ideas would be buttons or lanyards... or t-shirts... but I was thinking something that could be worn all the time.

Thoughts? Any interest?

I was excited to find some cute things at Target for kids this weekend. I have no idea if I bought enough? Hoping to make it to the outlet store in Anaheim this week.

1) What is your favorite FOOD Item or dish?
My Reply = Palo's Chaocalte Suffle with the white sauce!!!

2) Do you have any hobbies, pursuits or similar special interests?
My Reply = Scuba, Dance - (I was a contortionist when I was younger and in shape!!)

3) If you had to fill your closet with garments from one particular store - what store would that be? (alternatively - what is your favorite color?)
My Reply = Nordstroms!!! (that is if I had a lot of money too!!)

4) Do you have a favorite movie - or series of movies (there are so many sequals within some story lines)
My Reply = Older movie - The count of Monti Cristo

5) If you could choose to vacation somewhere for one MONTH - with all normal and routine expenses paid - WHERE would you choose to vacation (I'm sorry - you may not choose a Disney ship... as too many of us would probably choose this one!)
My Reply = ANY ADVENTURES BY DISNEY VACATION - if money was not an object
OR
Disneyland, Australia, or Hawaii!!!
OK I would go just about anywhere if it were called a vacation!!!

6) What is your favorite musical artist or group? Please name a song or album if you wish!
My Reply = Kristen Chenowith - Taylor the Latte Boy (look it up on YouTube if you like Starbucks and have not heard it yet!!!!)

7) Do you have a favorite web site for any reason? Again, I am arbitararily excluding the DIS site for the same reasons as question #5s' exclusion.
My Reply = Facebook - I love reading the posts!!

Bad News: Palos prices going up.

Good News: it'll be after this cruise.

OK - thank You everyone who choose to participate in the SEVEN QUESTIONS Game to get ta know your neighbors better! Now - if anyone sees common ground in someone else's reply - you now have one more thing to chat and chuckle over potentially!!! On the other hand - if you see anything that sort of is not sitting well with ya' ... then please keep it strictly to yourself! ( wink!!! ) ... I was trying to pick questions which were unlikely to evoke ANY questionable thoughts. IE, I didn't ask if anyone was a convicted felon - or if they enjoied dancing around late nite in a white tiger suit ... of course, those two examples are nominally narrow closed questions - and it's more suitable to pose vague, open ended, and socialable Qs!

.
If anyone has no objections - may I submit that we try another "fun" round of Qs for the weekend after Halloween - and if anyone would like to TRY THIER HAND at formulating a sseries of 7 questions - just PM me and I'll pass the proverbial baton of empowerment - while I await that next round! Otherwise I will try and dream up another series of Qs for fun and neighborly good will!
.
Aside from that - may I enquire - has anyone engaged in staging a Secret Mickey event? Do we have enough adventureous souls ready for such a diversion? At any rate - if I missed the "cutoff" for that event - no worries. That's how the ball bounces.
.

.
Thank You again for your cheerful participation with this weekends' 7 question game!

I can't wear the bracelets but I can hang it off of my lanyard so it will work!

I did add you the other day...I put you under GTY.

Bad News: Palos prices going up.

Good News: it'll be after this cruise.

Again?! I remember when Palo was $10 per person. Do you know what they are raising the price to?

 

[dsnydaddy]

it went up by $5 to $20 per person. Still a bargain, especially when compared to the upcoming Remy's which will be $75 pp.

What really gets me is that I've found Palo to be a very fine eating establishment with a high end cuisine. Now with Remy's being so much more, how can they add more to the experience? Or will they downgrade Palo to make Remy's appear more worth it?

Southwest Fare Sale!! It's only $30 for one way under 450 miles... got our flight booked into LAX on Thursday night. Now trying to decide what to do after the cruise. No $30 fares on Sunday so we will have to stay over till Monday... or pay $200 extra. But if we stay till Monday, there is a hotel stay and most likely theme park tickets involved... darn it I should have sprung for the annual passes when we went earlier this month.

Hey everyone! Well, I have some bad but good news. We will not be able to go on the cruise to nowhere anymore. I just found out today that I will be going in for surgery (Nothing too serious, but a very needed surgery). With being off work and a surgery date close to the cruise date, it just wasn't going to work out. We are pretty disappointed but my DH promised to take us to Disneyland for a few days with a stay at the Disneyland Hotel as soon as I recover so that helped a lot! I hope all of you have an AMAZING time on the cruise! Take lots of pictures and post them!!! You guys are a great bunch! Hopefully there will be another cruise in our future!!!


P.S. Dont forget to take us off the FE!

Wristbands run around $2 if we get enough for a minimum order. I don't mind getting that together, but we'll need a bit more interest to make it happen.

Do you think there a better way of getting in touch with everyone on this cruise besides posting here and hoping that everyone will see it?

I think the wristband idea is great. How many do we need for a minimum order? What site are you looking to get them at? We are doing the 10-day MR in April too and I think that might be a good FE gift.

My only suggestion to get a hold of everyone is to PM everyone and ask, but that might be a lot of work.

Thanks also for the Southwest sale update. We got the $30 fares for Friday going into LAX. I held off on the return for now. I am thinking we are going to fly out of Orange County and visit some friends in Irvine that Sunday.

The saved us about $70, which is great. More money to spend onboard.
