Virgil, don't you ever stay at home? Too bad Disney doesn't have a "frequent traveler" discount card??!!

I should have known wine would be the topic of discussion.

Have fun! Looking forward to your trip report.

Hi Jodie! Nope, doesn't seem like we stay at home much... but we do... I wish that Disney had a frequent traveler card... especially for the cruises...

Of course - France=wine!!! I can't wait! We had Alessandro as our head waiter again and it was nice coming to a new bottle of wine each night at the table. When we ate at Palo after Kristin and Nick's engagement I splurged on the ship's last bottle of 1996 Chateau L'Evangile Pomerol. It was incredible!!!.... I can't wait to try more in France. Hopefully there will be some other red wine drinkers in the group (other than Lauren of course...... )

Poor Frances! You're leaving her at home?? Mike would kill me if I left him and went without him (especially if red wine was involved ). You'll have to let me know how the trip is. I'm intrigued by the ABD trips - am thinking we might have to splurge and do the new Alaska one (LisaTex is very convincing). Take lots of pictures!

Frances is going on the 15 day Eastbound Repo without us... This is our payback!

Does Frances need a room mate?

Does Frances need a room mate?

They might be able to find room.... She's going with the moms that did the 11 day in Sept. 06... They have a connecting 3/4. Should be fun.....

So I think it's a fair trade-off, but Lauren and I really want to see the Panama Canal at some point.

What a fun trip! Just the length of the trip is appealing to me - so many days to lounge on deck at sea. We really wanted to do it, but we start school here the week before Labor Day - a good case for home schooling - ha!

oh my! In one week, we'll be boarding the plane! I am so unprepared! I have so much work to square away before we leave. Time to open a bottle of wine! And yes Virgil, you'll have some friends who enjoy red wines!

Great!!! I need the red wine now, too.... The Jimmy Buffett concert was incredible.... A couple of pictures and 2 short videos on my blog....

So many things to do - so little time...

Hey Virgil, just stopping by to say that I hope you and Lauren have an awesome trip. You'll have to let me know how you like ABD as Mark and I are thinking of doing the Canadian Rockies tour next year.

 

[WVMD]

Thanks for stopping by Mary!!!

We leave tomorrow - we both are so excited! I hope that those who have left and those leaving tomorrow have safe travels.

I plan on blogging the trip on my blog (it's in my signature....)
