pictuRes you probAbly Didn't see...

...and if you did see them you probably don't remember (I know I didn't). Well, I was looking through my pictures trying to find something and I found alot of funny pictures that are fun and I had forgotten about (ending a sentence with a preposition? I think not, thanks to parentheses). I think I will start posting older pics for use to enjoy. These are from last summer at the pool (duh).

DHUUUUU!!!!

Is everyone ready to go crusin'?
I've told each of you somethings but I don't think everyone knows all the details. So, I'll list some things and anyone who has any questions or suggestions can chime in.

Karlie, I listed you on my "sail and sign" account, so you should by able to go on line and print your fun pass.

Dad and I are planning on paying for the suggested (mandatory) tips that are collected all at the end of the cruise (it includes tip at the dinners, for the maid, etc. it's collected on the last day) The food is all included, soft drinks are the only thing that would be extra. warning, I bought Gwa a 12 oz. can of soda and it cost $2.41. There is, though, juice, milk and hot cocoa, all you can drink.

We need to be in Long Beach CA by about 2:00PM Monday, March 10 (yes, this Monday, in 6 days!)

Dad will drive the Honda which I hope will carry Me, Dad, Annie, Wes, and Bryce and Karlie if they want a free ride. I'm hoping Brad, Brandon or Lindsey will drive thier car and take Austin, we'll pay the gas. It will be more cost effective it we take only 2 cars. I think we should leave Mesa about 6:30am Monday morning. We need to take into account that there could be some car problems or delays and we can't be late or we miss the boat. If we're early, we can get on as early as12:00 and there is food being served then, I'm pretty sure.

A quick itineray:

Friday
the ship ports about 6:30, theN waits for clearance. We can either put our luggage outside our door the night before by 11:00pm and get a number and wait to be called while we eat a leisurly breakfast. Or we can carry off our own luggage as soon as we port and the ship is cleared for us to disembard. Everyone has to be off by 9:30 am.

Anyone have any questions?
Bring games, there are some on the ship but maybe not ones you like.
I saved the daily schedules if anyone wants to see them to know exactly what happens when.

I'm looking forward to a fun time. Being with my kids and hubby is one of my favorite things to do.
