All Aboard TRIANON!!! Departing SH 3/13/08 (FINALLY!!!)

Calling ALL Shipmates...if you are aboard the TRIANON stand up and be counted. See you at the Buffet, a game of Shuffle Board maybe?
Let's get this Baby underway and get OUR Babies HOME!!!

Ice Breaker #1...
Where's everybody from??

I thought this would be a FUN game to play since we will be shipmates for 3 Weeks. Once you answer you can create another Ice Breaker Question!! (if for some reason you wish not to answer just "pass".)

My VIN is still showing as "Waitlist Status" on the WW site - does this mean I didn't make it on Trianon? The last entry on the status says my MINI was Received at Terminal scheduled for the Trianon...I was hoping to see "Loaded on Vessel" by now. Do your VINs show "Loaded on Vessel" on the WW site?

Hope I can join the party here!

#1 -- I'm in southern AZ.. well, actually, today I've been in San Antonio and Phoenix for work, but tomorrow I head back to lovely Sierra Vista AZ.

#2 -- Why a mini? Cuz I'm just not a mini van kind of girl. And they just make me smile.



Icebreaker #3-- Why did you pick the color you picked?

BRG just seemed the most dignified color for me. Classic. British. And it matches my husband's Elise.

Icebreaker #2 Cause our other choices just weren't MINIs!!
Icebreaker #3 I wanted to spend my $$ on options instead of color and besides OB/W is a COOL color!!

#3 - Because red is my favorite color. And I told my hubby that when I *finally* got a Mini (I've been waiting for 6 yrs) that I wasn't getting anything but red.

#4 - Favorite movie?

#4-- That's a hard one.. Love the classics: Philadelphia Story, His Girl Friday, Breakfast at Tiffany's... but, then again, I'm a sucker for The Great Escape or Die Hard.. but I have to go with "Say Anything"... at least my husband understands that I will *always* have a crush on John Cusack..

no question #5?

#4 - There are far too many to mention all of them. I too love classics: Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Casablanca and Breakfast at Tiffany's. I love love love comedies with dialogue that can be repeated 249237589374 times and still be funny.

I'll make up #5: What is your favorite song to listen to while driving?

Mine says "Waitlist Status" as well. Considering the number of vehicles with this status and that they are from several different dates, It could just be that they have not yet completed entering all of the vehicles that are on board.
...
or I could be completely wrong.

Does anyone have any info on where our ship is? The two sites that I have (ShipAIS and Sailwx) don't have anything listed.
