[hollypoast]

Hollypoast.....Mmmmmmmm, Rum is good! . Thank you

Henlady-I have to ask, do you have/raise chickens? We have 6 backyard chickens.

 

[JoyB-UK]

For those people in group 1 there has been a change. Hollypoast is no longer participating but Kjackson83 has taken the spot in group 1. Group 2 is still open and we have a couple of spots available for any one else still to join.

No, no chickens. It is a "play/twist" on my last name.

Ugh, the boards have stopped sending me alerts when anyone posts in this thread. i was wondering why it's been so quiet for the past couple of weeks. i'm glad i checked, because here you all are!

as far as the FE list/spreadsheet, what people have done on my other cruises is put the excel spreadsheet into google docs, and then put a link to the document here. the dis should allow that. i have never worked with google docs so can't be a help there. once we each sent a p.m. to the FE organizer with our emails and she emailed us the spreadsheet, so that's another option if there's no good way to post it.

i would love to do a meet-up. i also have no problem with name tags - we do that all the time on royal cruises, and it's never been a big deal. if you don't want to tell anyone your name or online handle, you just don't wear a tag, or dont put your handle on it.

hope y'all are staying cool today! 105 with the heat index here, and of course we're supposed to have a cookout.

I am afraid that someone from the FE group is going to have to take over the list for this cruise, as I will no longer be sailing with you. Due to issues at home my husband is not able to come on holiday with us anymore. As it was to be him driving us to Miami I can no longer get there for the cruise. My daughter and I are going to change cruises and sail on the Dream from Port Canaveral so we can use the shuttle.
I'm really disappointed to be missing the double dip but unless we make a few drastic changes we won't be able to come to Florida at all.

I have a list with all the cabin numbers etc so if whoever takes over would let me know then I will send the info over to you.

Hope you all have a great cruise.

Thanks, Joy

Unfortunately, JQ and I are also no longer on this cruise. We had to move to the Dream Oct 30th sail to accommodate the schedules of our travelling group. We will be doing a land and sea which includes 6 nts. at WDW precruise. Really sad to have to switch off. Have a great time everyone!

We are also doing the 30th sailing with 4 nights pre and 5 nights post cruise at Disney.

That's great! So happy to have a fellow cruiser with us.

 

[LauraJL]

Really sorry to hear you both can't make the cruise now. Hope you have a great cruise on the Dream.

If no one else wants to take over the FE group, I am happy to do so- however would be more than happy if someone else wanted to do it! This is our first cruise so you may have to be a little patient with me!

 

[HAZCD5]

Hey all,
Could you all please remove us from the FE list/group. My husband got a new job in a new state so instead of cruising we will be moving. SO here is to a happy cruise for you all and a happy move for us!!!

Thanks Laura, that would be really great. I've already purchased most of the stuff for my group so I'm hoping the majority still choose to participate. But if not I guess we'll just do some pixie dusting!

We prefer a very simple set up this time around since this is our very first cruise and a very short one and for us it's critical to focus on family time.

 

[Henlady]

Laura, if you are willing to take the FE group, that would be great. Just keep it as simple as possible to make it easy for you. Thanks for stepping up

Hi everyone

Looks like I'm taking over the FE group so any queries send my way!

Once I have received the information from Joy I will circulate the details of names and staterooms together with any special requests to those signed up. If you haven't provided Joy with these details please can you send them direct to me.

As far as I can tell we currently have 11 cabins confirmed so if no one objects it makes sense to me to have all of these in one group rather than split them. I will start a second group if any further requests are made and include Karmacats, Jadedjojo and Kjackson83 in this.


Below is taken from Joy's previous post and I was planning on just continuing this way!

"Due to the new rules on here the FE has to be run entirely on disboards and not linked elsewhere, also people should only share as much personal information as they are comfortable with.

If you are interested in joining the FE we just need to know how many people (adults/children) are in each cabin with child ages for age appropriate gift giving.

Any other information you would like to share such as names, allergies, favourite characters etc is upto you.

FE gifts are entirely up to the givers discretion with regards to value, whether they are individual or cabin gifts, or if you give one gift per cruise or per day.

Closing date for sign up is October 1st 2015."

I will follow this post with a list of those I believe to be signed up to the FE group. If you wish to participate and are not on the list please let me know I will start a second group.


Thanks


Laura

LauraJL, thanks so much for taking this on! i can tell already you're going to be awesome at it.

i've never been in charge of an FE, but i have participated before, so if you have any questions, ask away, and i'll see if i can help.

I think 11 cabins in a group is fine. hopefully we'll add some others, too, as the date gets closer.

i'm sorry to be losing a lot of you. it's been fun chatting on here. good luck with your new cruises and/or other endeavors!
