silly pillowcase question

[peachygreen]

If you can test your fabric markers before you go, I would. We had some pastel markers on the first cruise on our pillowcases and they don't show as well as the more vibrant colors did.

Can I ask which ships you were on for both trips? We have done candy both times, but got many more signatures on the Dream than we did on the Magic. I was just trying to figure out it is just luck of the draw or if there is a difference between ships.

The 2011 experience was on the Dream (with no candy but tons of signatures on the pillowcases). The 2012 experience was on the Fantasy (with candy with the pillowcases, but fewer signatures.......the photo mat went in separately and got lots of signatures but with no separate candy). My guess is that it is totally random and if we did it again, it would not follow any particular rhyme or reason. Just happy that they offer this at all.

Thanks Kimosabe. I think you are probably correct on the randomness of this. I like you am just thankful they do it at all. I just hope folks don't abuse the priviledge to the point they stop doing it. Even with this benefit, my children still insist on carrying things around to get autographs. We already have a 9 inch vinylmation for our next trip. We were actually able to find a blank one that didn't cost a fortune. It is not the color we wanted, but it will be fine for signatures.

My family loves having things signed from the Characters.
