[MinnMick01]

I found the map Cass thank you so much that helps alot.

 

[MinnMick01]

Does anyone know where the closet grocery store or walmart is in Key West. My mother would like DH to run out and get her ensure and diet coke. I am thinking he might have to take a taxi for that one. Cass is it on your site and I just have not found it yet

 

[MinnMick01]

... and that's the last we'll see of her for a few days if she decides to read, look at all the pics, and watch all the videos on there

Has anyone here read the whole thing lately, how long does it take to really go through everything Cass has posted on the site?

One of the benefits of being the DH is that I get to see everything as its made, so reading it all from the start, I would say there's 12 to 18hrs of content on there.

Well I have just spent an hour on it and have only visited the Port Canaveral Info, and I have visit 3 links on key west.

We are off to go thrifting to look for pirate costume stuff. DH has peeked my interest in this and now if I can find cheap stuff to dress up in then I will do it. Not sure about the kids yet. DH said it could be just him and I that do it, but I know little one wants to do it.

I will check back in later. Looks like i have my work cut out for me on Casses site. I think I will be sitting at the computer alot more in the days to come.

Thanks for the advice on HR. I do remember it being expensive. I think we might just order a few apps a split them.

As for Mallory square I can not find in on the map I am looking at is it near truman annex.

This one might help! http://maps.citysearch.com/map/view/11459738

First question I have for you is that times at port. I got times of DCL website that are slightly diff then yours. I tend to like your times better. The diff's are DCL as our onboard time for Key west as 7:30 you have 9:30. Then our day at Cosumel DCL has 9:30 to 6:30 you have 10:30 to 10:00.

Is this information that we will get with our paper work before sailing so we can set up our none DCL stuff.

Those times were actually taken from the DCL website, but they change all the time. If I remember correctly, when they send out the docs/luggage tags/etc they also show the correct port times. But those are also subject to change and may even change when we get onboard.

Ok I might be jumping ahead with out reading it all but Cass you have a link for the perfect gift. Are there other companys to order stuff from?

I think there is one other place that does this in Port Canaveral but honestly, I wouldn't bother. Shirley has been so helpful to everyone from the DIS and from what I have read, is an an amazing person. I'm not getting gifts but if I were, I would absolutely go with Shirley and the Perfect Gift!

This might help, though I can't vouch for any of them as I have never been there before...

I don't think Key West has a Walmart or Target, maybe someone else can help you out with that....

 

[Timon]

There is a K-mart in Key West, but it's not close to the port...

I have some medical questions I am hoping someone can answer please.

My mother has not been doing well since her illness in April. She has been lossing alot of weight. Since May she has lost about 20 pounds. She has shortness of breath, and is tired most of the time. And is waking up in the middle of the night soaked from hot flashes. She had blood work done in May and her thyroid level was at the low end of the high range. Which to me explains the weight loss and the being tired aspect. The primary did not want to deal with it. He told her to see her endo guy. So she saw him and he schedualed her for a thyroid test that she just had done last week. It was some test where you go in and have pictures taken, then later that morning you go back and take a radiation pill and have more pictures taken, then you go back that night for more pictures, and then in the morning of the next day you have more pictures. She also had more blood work done last week. She saw her endo guy today and said that the blood work is still in the low high range. But for some one with a high reading the radation should have gone right through her, and it didn't. It took forever to go through her. So now he is confussed. He does not claim the shortess of breath, the hot flashes, or the being tired. He says that should all be heart related. Even though the heart dr. says no. However the endo guy is going to do a procedure on my mother next week. All I know about it is he is going to give her an extermly high does of radiation. To try to knock the thryoid down and then it will be so far down that she will have to take meds to get it working again. With this radiation he has informed her that there is to be no children around her for 5 days, no small pets, no human contact of any kind, no sharing silverware, or cups / straws, flush all toilets 2 times everytime she uses them, no elderly around her, and anyone inbetween old and kids needs to stay across the room from her. So my father is thinking about going up to the cabin with the dog for the 5 days, to save the dogs life.

If you ask me this sounds way off base. Any input from anyone. The endo guy did say that 3 weeks after the radiation she needs to have more blood work, then 4 weeks after that more blood work. She informed him of the cruise and he was really up in the air about it. He said at this point he will not tell her no, but he has to see blood results before he can give her an answer.

Mom has no decided that if she can get on the ship she will just sit on the verhanda for the whole 7 days. She has finally admitted that she can not handle being around children because of all the talking, and activity that they do. She took Mackenzie with my father to get ice cream after her appointment today and they were home 30 minutes later. It takes 10 to get to the place and 10 to get home. She was crying when she just told me on the phone that she can not handle the constant talking from Mackenzie and she really does not know how she will do the cruise.

Sorry this was so long.

Robin here...

Sorry to hear that.

My first reaction was the heart too. Only because I went through shortness of breath with Mike. That doesn't mean that's her problem also though.

I would get a second opinion if I were them. It never hurts.

Prayers are with you.

[Dyerneeds]

is she trying to avoid me?

 

[Dyerneeds]

Actually, the kids are still looking for someone to videotape the whole thing.

what kind of sick kids are you raising over there? this is a family thread.
(just kidding)

 

[Dyerneeds]

Yeah, I saw him on here. Looks like he's getting in with Scott and Mike. You better watch him.

dont worry. no chance of bringing rob over to the DARK SIDE. hes got it made.
of course so do i and i fell.

 

[Dyerneeds]

Oh I'm not worried about Rob or Scott

i resent that implication.

 

[cntkg1]

You altered my post in your quote. Go look at my answer again.

Back at ya!

Even with Nancy lurking I was able to get it.

I start working at 8:00 and would never take advantage of my employer and DIS after starting time.

Is there a prize for the person who gets nearest?

heather

Yes, AFEG's suite for the week.

No, because I'm sure Nancy will find a way to cheat.

Moi??

I've used Shirley a few times and will use her services again on this cruise. She's the BEST!!

Only 42 more posts after this one for another KK milestone. I have 5 more minutes to help out here.

 

[Dyerneeds]

Yup, the Three Amigos now.

Yeah, Mike is the "bad boy", he even admitted it earlier in the thread

He does want to go topless and show off his scar....
But then again, Robin does love him very much so he can't be so bad.
Besides, he seemed harmless at the party

.

we will get walt going and we will be the fearsome foursome.

and the chicks love the bad boys.

yes im harmless. robin always says..you just live in your own little world dont you.

 

[cntkg1]
