We will also be joining for our first cruise. SOOOO excited!!! I'm really glad to have someone to share it with!

 

[Plaid Sheep]

Welcome!! Now that I know there are others...it's more real!

 

[Erineliza38]

We just paid our deposit today! Super excited as this is my first Disney cruise and my DH, DD and DS first cruise ever!!

 

[IndyMouseFan]

Yahoo -- more people to share the fun!! The countdown app on my phone says 392 days until we leave for Florida!! Welcome aboard from another first-timer.

 

[Plaid Sheep]

Yeah!! More people!
I can't wait. Its almost a year out! I am behind in my packing though.
Just kidding... I plan on taking a couple of everything ..bathing suits, cover ups, dresses, knickers...shoes and some lip gloss! I refuse to overpack.....again!

 

[IndyMouseFan]

Happy Independence Day!!! I'm off work the rest of the week. I think we're going to get our passport pictures taken tomorrow. One step closer!!

Wishing you all a wonderful holiday! I'm enjoying seeing where y'all are from. I used to live in Boston...I have family in Maryland...I have customers in Cincinnati. Fun!!

 

[Erineliza38]

Happy 4th to you too! I keep checking this post to see who might be joining us on the cruise. I am anxious to get to know everyone and talk cruise talk Anyone interested in beginning a FE list? I am not sure how to do it- or who does it- but I am already planning door decorations etc, and am excited to think ahead!

 

[IndyMouseFan]

What is a FE list? I think I have lots of cruising to learn!!

 

[Erineliza38]

IndyMouseFan- I am new too- and just learning by trying to read up when I can In lots of pictures I saw these small pocket holders hanging by people's cruise doors. They call them fish extenders. I guess if you agree ahead of time, with your group of cruisers, you use those and bring little gifts to give while on the ship. You take down people's names and ages and then plan what you will bring and when you will deliver it to the doors. Not sure about doing it- but was open to what everyone else was doing that would be on our ship.

 

[IndyMouseFan]

Oh, now that Fish Extender thing sounds like a blast -- that's shopping I can do now. Count us in!!

We got our passport pictures taken...now, to do the applications and get them turned in. How in the world am I going to make it another 383 days if I'm this excited now?!

 

[Plaid Sheep]

So we just got back from our vacation today.... And it hit me... WE ARE BELOW THE YEAR MARK!!!!!!!
����������

 

[IndyMouseFan]

YES -- less than one year!!! My son asks almost every day how much money is in our savings account for our vacation. Makes me laugh -- it's sort of the financial version of "are we there yet?"

 

[IndyMouseFan]

Thought I'd check in to see how y'all are doing? We submitted our passport applications today. Yet another step closer!!!

Back to reality though -- I've got to go help clean things out of the garage for our yard sale.

Have a great day!!

I just have to put this out of my mind. It's SOOOO far away!!

I DID find some really cute pirate above the knee socks for pirate night. I'll wait until Halloween is over for some other pirate-y items.......

 

[Plaid Sheep]

I did it!
I booked the land portion of my trip. At first I was looking at two rooms at AoA, but ended up scoring a 2 Bedroom at VWL for way less money. With two rooms to book and the things I need AND factoring in the patience level of various family members, I couldn't wait around.

 

[IndyMouseFan]

Congratulations!!! That's a great detail to have off your mind!!! We are closing in on the 300 day mark (that's still too far away!)...it's still a good time for a little happy dance with you.
