Gregswife

There was a new shopping developement being built in St. Thomas, the Yacht Haven Grande, and Louis Vuitton was one of the anchor stores. It was scheduled to open at the end of 2006, but I have not been there since that time so maybe someone else can answer as to whether they have seen it there...

Here is a pic...

I usually answer the door on Halloween as a housewife. You did a great job on the shirts and the towels.

My Troublemaker T-shirts and towels arrived today - they look great, will take some pics later, when I get a chance. I am babysitting today and I had to take my grandson shopping because I had previosuly bought him a Darth Vader costume for Halloween and he took it to his mom's house and now she can't find the mask and can't figure out what she did with it, and as Halloween is tomorrow and he is suppsoed to wear his costume to school, we were in a state of "emergency". He now has a fully rigged out Ninja costume, but I have to make a few alterations. Chuck, thanks for getting the stuff to me so quickly - although I am amazed that I got them. My address is 13476 and the box was address to 3476 .

Chuck, is your mind still on that song???

Lisa, may all your days at sea be smooth and filled with sun and fun and may all your days in port be adventurous. Anchors aweigh……

Bev, hope you and Jim have the best cruise ever. May all your days at sea be smooth and filled with sun and fun and may all your days in port be adventurous. Anchors aweigh……

All cruise ships I have ever been on have an ironing board and an iron in the laundry room. They are free to use, however, you cannot take them back to your cabin, you have to use them there.

Rose - you are really racking up those cruise miles. Have a wonderful trip.

Thanks for that lead-in Chuck - I take any chance I can get to post the grandson's pic....

Hi there. What part of Colorado do you live in? I live in the Denver area. We are sailing in 8 days on the Conquest - all of our cruises have been on Carnival. We started with them because the kids loved the teen programs and now they are grown, but we have stuck with Carnival - I think you definitely get the best deals for the money with them. We usually fly to the point of embarkation, but I really hate flying - I have to take Xanax to even get on the plane and then drink all the way to where ever we are going, so we decided to sail out of Galveston this time as it is close enough to drive. I can't help you with info on other cruise lines but I m sure someone here can...

That "dog" won't hunt!! LOL Billl, I noticed you put dog in paranthesis - aaahh, c'mon, they are registered and pedigreed, so they are officially recognized as dogs. Okay, I realize that men usually like those big "manly" dogs, and not these little fluffy ones that only weigh 7 lbs. each, so I'll let you slide on that one. And as for them not hunting - well, Bucky hunts for something to mark everytime we let him outside and Sadie hunts for ways to aggrevate the crap out of Bucky, which could explain why he has been known, on several different occassion, to raise his leg and "mark" her on the face. And Chuck, calling my hounds mopheads - why, I would never do something like you suggested - do you have any idea how long it takes every day, to get that hair brushed out. Okay, all kidding aside, just so you guys know, my dogs are just that - my dogs. That are not my "babies" or my "kids" as some people call them. My kids and babies are human - I do not dress them up (okay, Sadie does have one dress - a Bronco's cheerleader outifit, but that is only because one of my friends made it for her as a joke.) I know one lady whose dogs have more clothes than I do. I also know a lady who wrapped her dog in a baby blanket and took it to her brother's funeral because "she was so much a part of the family". Okay, back to Lisa's adventure - she never did tell us what that is about, did she????

Bill, why don't you save some money and just go buy a bucket of live bait. I think minnows are about $2 a dozen - it's basically the same thing, isn't it????

Great pic Beth. I will be doing that same cruise with the Troublemakers in January '09.

Yes Lisa, do tell all about it....

Beth, I opened a free acct. at photobucket.com and I download my pics into it, then I use the IMG code they provide. I just copy it and paste it into the body of my post and the pic appears when I click on "add reply". I am completely computer illiterate and that is the only way I know how to do it...

Beth, I am Cheryl and a relatively new Troublemaker. Your accomodations are tied to the number of posts you have. You will upgrade to an oceanview with 100 posts, a balcony with 500, a suite with 1000 and a penthouse at 5000. Welcome to Cruise Crazies....

Cell phone???? Will they allow her to take calls during Merc Training....You know she could be in the phase where you have to learn to spot the difference at a quick glance between squirls, cats, mice, rats, and yipping little dogs.....and she could be in the critical training part of being able to do it in a darkened basement... Lisa if you hear yipping dogs, please do not shoot. My dogs are the yippiest dogs ever born and as much I think about shooting them sometimes when they won't stop, hubby would be very sad. Please memorize the pic below and the one in my avatar - these are not vermin!!! Please do not "disable" them if you cross their path!!!

Cruiser66, glad to have you aboard the greatest forum afloat. I feel so at home here, and I am sure that in no time, you will be saying the same.

Miralago, glad to have you aboard the greatest forum afloat. I feel so at home here, and I am sure that in no time, you will be saying the same.

Congrats on the booking Rose - I am sure it will be a wonderful birthday celebration for your daughter. Today is my firstborn's 27th. Where does all the time go????

Frank, I am not sure of the specifics, but I think it is only the one to the Troublemakers website....

JR, I did talk to them about that - she said that in Jamaica and Gand Cayman, I may be charged a $1.29 fee, but that was not per minute or call - just the first time I connected to their service. She said I would not be charged it in Cozumel, so I can live with 2.58 to have the ability to call home. I do pay more per month for the international plan, but it is worth it as anytime we are traveling out of the country or Greg is traveling overseas on business, we have the ability to easy access. I am glad that ships are now offering the option of having your cell phone work while onboard. I certainly do not plan to use it then, but it gives me peace of mind, knowing that should an emergency arise, my family can reach me easily.

Lisa, I hope you have the best cruise ever. Okay, now I can't get that Peter, Paul & Mary song out of my head....
