The Fantasy's First MNSSH Cruise: Zombies of the Caribbean October 27, 2012

I would need 3 lanyards

I think that would put us at 62 lanyards!

 

[BMICKEY]

They are last minute deals Disney has been putting out to sell remaining rooms. They are non-refundable, you can't make any changes to the reservation and you get the room they give you. I-inside, o-ocean view, and v verandah.
Our first cruise was a VGT booking, we got a 4b room for a couple thousand less than they were charging when we booked so for us it was an excellent deal.

OOOOOO....that makes sense! I just hope they have some cabins available when we sail as I would really like to upgrade to an V from and O....I called but it was $1800 more! We plan on asking as soon as we get to the port. Right now, our cabin is right over the clubs

We are hoping for the same! Not worth the money to upgrade ahead of time though.

I have a great Maleficent costume. It will take up half a suitcase, but oh well. DH has a Grumpy costume but the kids see the beard and red jacket and assume he's Santa. We'll have to work on that one.

I may be wrong in thinking, but I'm hoping that the scavenger hunt will be fun for anyone to participate kids or not, a family/couple/kids activity. Maybe on,y the kids will get a prize or maybe per cabin or each person it's not decided as far as I'm aware. But that's my thinking.

I am working on this as I promised to do & I will run some ideas by stacylou & gilsan via pm as soon as I have more put together. I am not working on the prize side of things but I am working on the Day Of The Dead Trivia sheets for everyone. I am also going to work on the magnets that have the answers to the trivia sheets that we will put on doors around the cruise. I will probably need to get a list of everyone that will volunteer to help put magnets on their doors so that I can maybe put a small map or something on the back side of the trivia sheets so that people will know where to go to look for the answers. This trivia is hard enough to be fun for adults but easy enough to be educational for children. It is something that my boys ages 6 & 8 will be able to do with maybe a little help from us. After all the answers will be posted around the ship.

Does that all sound good to everyone??? So far that is how I am proceeding but I don't want to give away too many details. Gotta have something left for a surprise. I will have the trivia more finalized after I get together with my friend that moved here a few years ago from Mexico. That way I can have her look over what I have written & make any suggestions.

Sounds good!
I am a little concerned there aren't many takers so far, I think too that this will be fun for everyone. The sheet I am working on is ship trivia which will require hunting for answers around the ship, which again doesn't exclude "adult" participants, in fact the children may ned a little "help" with these too!
The sheet Staceylou is working on which is a proper scavenger hunt will be fun for everyone too, I'm sure!
As the "prize" is a goodie bag, and the entry fee is goodies to share between the bags, then if a cabin want to enter as a family, or the children want to enter on their own they can just give accordingly. Of course everyone's idea of what would constitute suffcient to give will be different, but as a general rule, I would say, give as much as you would like to find in your goodie bag If we have a cut off point much like the FE exchange, then we will know how many bags, sheets and magnets we will need, and everyone will have an idea of how many bags we will need to fill with goodies, just in case anyone intends to bring, say a chocolate bar for each bag (Mmmm Chocolate)

I am happy to provide one or two "extra" prizes for the "winners" who solve the most clues.
