3/24/11- Dream -- our 1st cruise

[JacksGirlz]

Just a quick note regarding dinner attire. I spoke with DCL today and they said that Night 1 is casual, Night 2 is pirate and Night 3 is dressy, but not like a formal night like on a 7 night.
Can't wait!!

Thank you for posting this. I still have my Mickey ears pirate hat from out last cruise that I'm packing for pirate night. My DD12 will think I'm a nut!

I think I may need a tranq in order to fall asleep! Too excited. Of course coming here to Dis doesn't help!

I am beyond ready for a vacation, not that I am actually ready. I still haven't packed a thing. Funny...our first cruise I was packed two weeks ahead of time! LOL
I can't wait to sit on a deck chair with my book and umbrella drink and do absolutely nothing!
See you soon!

Does anyone know hot the Back to Back thing works? I assume we have to get off the boat and reboard, but what exactly is the process?

Only 1 week to go!

Hi everyone.

Looks like my family will be joining you all on this cruise. It will be me - Robin, DH - Mike and DS Matt (2wk shy of 16yo).

Care if we stop by to say hi?

Also opened my docs and was surprised to see our inside stateroom is now an outside stateroom.

Welcome!! Definitely come to the meet & greet. This has been a very quiet thread... we must be saving up our energy for the cruise!

We leave Monday.... Bon Voyage everyone!!!!! Safe travels.

We're glad you're coming along. How great to get a surprise upgrade! See you soon.

I've been posting on CC and wondered where everyone was for roll call. I just found out! I did not know about the DISboards until tonight. We are really excited about our upcoming cruise. It will be me, my DH, my DD (11 y.o.), and my DS (also 11 y.o.). My kids are looking forward to meeting other kids at the Edge. I wish we'd found you earlier! See you soon.

Don't be scared. It is alot of fun and anything and everything is greatly appreciated. It is just very exciting to come back to your room and have a "surprise" waiting!

Sitting in our 2BR villa at DVC-Hilton Head. We are headed to Saratoga Springs tonight. Harry Potter tomorrow and then......

WE CRUISE.

Been almost 2 years since my last cruise. I am so ready.

 

[disneyfreak1]

I am so excited I can hardly stand myself! See you tomorrow!

 

[dylan'smom]

Well, it was here... and then it was gone, in a flash!


Hope everyone had a great time!! I missed the meet due to a change in my salon appointment, which was due to a change in our excursion, which was due to me getting my times wrong......

I do hope to meet you on another cruise, since this one slipped by waaaay too fast & I was derelict in my cruise meet duties!! We are going on the ebta this year, so while I'll miss that amazing concierge lounge & services, I'm happy to be back to our old friend, the Magic. :]

Gotta say....wasn't the first glimpse of the atrium amazing?

 

[JacksGirlz]

We booked on board for next spring break on the Magic. We had lots of fun. Thank you again, DisneyFreak1, for setting up the FE. My DD and I want to do the exchange again the next time we cruise.

 

[biroberts]

Thank you everyone for the FE goodies! My girls enjoyed peeking out to see what was left for us.
We had a great time on the cruise, and can't wait to do it again!!!!!

 

[disneyfreak1]

Thank you for all the wonderful FE goodies. I'm curious as to how the koozies were made. We had a great time and enjoyed everything we received.

The koozies were fun!!! I purchased blank koozies online. I found a place online that sells rolls of heat press plastic and cut the shapes and letters with my cricut cutter. My friend has a heat press, so I used that to apply the letters. It was fairly simple but time consuming. If you try it, just be sure to buy the neoprene koozies.

We just got back from our vacation yesterday - and I wanted to say THANKS for all the FE goodies! JacksGirlz, OMG, almost daily presents! The kids had fun delivering our bags, and I had their pictures on each of your doors Loved seeing the magnets on the doors, and was surprised that there were very few on our cruise.

Sorry for missing the MEET, our luggages were delayed. We didn't get them until after lunch in Nassau, and so we weren't able to freshen up. Also missed our PALO reservations that day, we can't go there in our shorts

Hope we'll do better next time!
