It's to bad you can't leave it at a hotel if you are coming in early.
We are a family of 4, and would love to participate in the FE. Ours boys are 10 & 12. My 12 year old is actually turning 13 2 days after the cruise. This is his brainchild. Kinda a right of passage type thing, since he will be a "teenager". We are "super excited"! First cruise ever.
How awesome that your son picked DCL for the first cruise ever! It may spoil you so beware.
Welcome!! How exciting that he picked a Disney cruise! Beware that you'll be spoiled on the cruise! We started cruising in 2010 and absolutely love it! I've only been on Disney, but my husband's also been on carnival. We picked this particular cruise because our daughter turns one on the first sea day. Feel free to ask any questions!
To join the FE you need to be at 10 posts as we are keeping most info private and not posting it here. Feel free to post here or http://www.disboards.com/forums/test-board.88/ to get your count up.
I have been asked why I require an email and it is because once people join the FE here they usually do not come back and post anymore and I need away to contact you

If you want to edit your email out, I got it written down. The only other thing I need to know is a room # unless you don't have it yet in which case just get it to me asap.

Got it if you want to edit it out.
For anyone wanting to join the FE, normally it is sent to you via pm or email so you will need to have your posts up to 10 to receive a pm.
Hello! I reached my ten post. May I be added to the list please! Really excited to join!No new info - I am just moving/updating it for a new page for the newcomers who don't feel like reading the whole thread. Hopefully, all the info to follow will help answer some questions and not scare anyone away
For those that are interested in joining the FE, here are my rules and guidelines. The last group will be closed one month before the cruise and I will then start a latecomer’s group or a pixie dust group. Each group will stop at max of 10 cabins. If someone drops before the cruise, I will not replace them in a group(unless the group agrees). If the group had hit 10, it will stay closed.
Real names are not required – it is DW(Darling Wife), DH(Darling Husband), DD(Darling Daughter) and DS(Darling Son). For anyone who wants to make personalized gifts, let me know and I will see what I can do about getting real names.
Info required to join the FE is room #, who is in the room, ages of any kids and an email to send the final list to. Optional info is any allergies and favorite characters. The only person that will have your email is me and I will delete it from my contacts once we are back from the cruise. I will not share your email address unless you request it. I will send an email to all participants in each group as it closes. I will put directions in the email, but please look at the FE info and make sure it is correct. I will have everyone email me back to assure me they have received their email and everything is correct. After that, the only email you will get from me is if there are any changes in your FE group.
There is no spending limit(spend what you are comfortable with). Gifts can be per person or per cabin, your choice. There is no set day to deliver, just have everything delivered before Thursday(Dec. 1st) night. Please make sure to hang your extender as soon as possible for those who want to deliver early(or daily - it does happen). If there is no extender, please do not leave anything as the participants may have changed rooms.
I will let everyone know of any room changes up to 48 hrs. before the cruise, then I will be traveling to Texas and have limited access to the internet. After that you will either have to go door to door and drop off a note of any changes or I will have a whiteboard at my room to write any messages. Be aware that since I am not going to be in every FE group, most people will have no reason to check the board at my room. I will make sure everyone has my room # so they can check the whiteboard or call if they have any issues.
Closer to the cruise we can maybe plan an onboard meet up on day 1 for anyone interested. If anyone is interested in being in charge of starting groups for mixology classes, an ornament exchange(organized elsewhere), a postcard exchange, a recipe exchange etc… feel free as I am only doing the FE.
As always, I will try to check this thread daily so feel free to ask any questions.
All you have to do to join the FE is pm me your info. If you click on my name a box will come up and one of the options is to start a conversation. All I need to know is who is in the room(don't need real names), ages of any kids, room # and an email to send the list to. Optional info is any allergies and favorite characters. If you go back to page 21 I have posted my "rules" for the FE to help you out.Day Port Ashore Onboard

Hello
To join the FE just follow the directions above to send me a pm with your info. If you or @K.Romero would like I can send you a pm to get started instead, just let me know. Like I said above, real names are not required and if you go back a page you can read the rules for the FE.
