DIS Dinner and Meet-up at Fishlips Restaurant, Sept 11, Night Before the Cruise--Coordinator--EllaEnchanted Let the fun start early, the night before the cruise with a DIS dinner meet-up at Fishlips Restaurant. RSVP and your party will be added to the list. It will help with getting an accurate count so that a table or tables can be booked. For more information about Fishlips Restaurant click here.


CG-- Champagne Girls--Coordinator--EllaEnchanted SUNDAY SEPT 13TH FROM 1-3PM IN SESSIONS. This event is a champagne tasting.....we'll sample different champagnes ranging from dry to sweet and learn something about each of them. We would like everyone to wear PINK. Pink tiaras and boas will be provided. We will take a group picture. Our mascott is Sassy Bubbles and she will be dressed like a pink tink.....aka....Cheri. It's not necessary for everyone to drink champagne. We have tasters.....they will sample the champagnes. We have sippers....they will only have a little. We have non champagne drinkers....they can order whatever they want. There will be an additional charge to participate, but it will be minimal....usually $10 for tasters and $5 for sippers....no charge for non champagne drinkers. We'll try to keep it in this price range. Pictures will be available at Shutters for purchase separately. Deb will need to know the size of the group so that she can make appropriate plans with DCL and have sufficient champagne.


SATS -- Shot's Around the Ship--Coordinator--iankh will take place on Sunday night, September 13th, 9:30 to 10-ish PM. You can drink whatever you want, water, soda, or rot-gut. When we're ready, as a group, we'll move on to another bar on the ship. It is meant to be just a relaxed way for folks to get together and chat. Many of my friends on this cruise, I first met at Shots Around the Ship on another cruise. The count of respondents will provide information to make sure that DCL has our first venue staffed appropriately for the size of the gathering.


GOAA -- GEEZERS OF ALL AGES an impromptu milk and cookie meet at Cove Cafe every evening after late dinner for whoever wants to come then or later after the show.


Fish Extenders--Coordinator--disneylove69 This is a little gift exchange, and it can be a lot of fun and full of surprises. A count of cabins and people will be needed in advance, so that the exchange can be organized, goodies purchased, etc.

WOW--WALKING ON WATER--Coordinator--Watcher Leader Ian is meant to be a way to keep active on board ship. I am planning on going for a long walk everyday and invite others to join me. I will be asking a bit more below, so I can get a better idea of what folks are looking for. This is the first time I've planned this sort of activity.



LANYARDS -- Coordinator--Monica at mishoe01

BTB -- Back-To-Back -- staying on the ship for a Western Cruise after this one.

You are a SNEAK and a half.

Glad I got all the info in before you posted though. I wanted a couple posts so that there is enough space for everything.

IAN: The survey info on page 1 post 1 says the survey will close at midnight on July 12. July 12 is Sunday. If you close it Friday night and I delete the link on Saturday we are jumping the gun.

Instructions please

[ibouncetoo]

I think you should give folks through the weekend.....

Wish I could remember what I signed up for!

Monica...how's the lanyard team building going? Do I need to strong arm some more members?

Still gotta get those blasted Mickey Ears made. HEY! I'll take them up to Prescott with me and do a craft project! ......or....maybe not......

.

[ibouncetoo]

Oh and Peg.....we aren't quite done with door signs yet. Still have to do the DCL nametags as soon as Tom gets them to me (I'm next on the list).

I can do them at my office though.

Cheri could make them or stand over you while you do it. Teachers are good at motivating students.

Mistake on my part with the date but at the time I was thinking day of week and counting out from when it opened.

I am going to need time to compile the information so, I will still really need to close it tonight. The survey's been open for about 3 weeks, so I don't think the extra 2 days will make much of a difference, and I want to get the information out to the planners.

I use the dollar bills for tipping room service because then I can make sure that the person gets the tip.

I also think of the tip holistically and my tipping starts at the airport here in Chicago. I always do curbside check in whenever possible, because I think they are a little more lenient regarding weight and size (flying SW) than they are in the concourse.

There is also other tipping along the way cabs, bellmen, etc. So, it seems like I always need singles.
