The MAGIC is Back!!! - 6th Sept 2014 WBTA - Come & join the fun! - PART 2

[diznefamily]

Stateroom Tour Volunteers Needed - including possible poker run! Here is what I have come up with so far. If you do not see a category listed below that you want to tour, please let me know and we will attempt to make it happen. _______________________________Volunteered by (DisName): Cat R - Royal Suite _______________ (gpb_1) Cat S - 2 Bedroom Suite __________ (nancyelew) Cat T - 1 Bedroom Suite __________ (Namsupak) -Primary Cat 4 - Deluxe Family Verandah ____ Cat 7a - Navigator's Verandah ______ (liesbeth1012) - Primary _______________________________Lindsay ***** - Backup Cat 7a - Obstructed Verandah ______ Cat 9 - Deluxe Oceanview __________ Cat 10 - "Secret" Porthole __________ Cat 11b - "Sideways" Inside _________ (Tod&Copper) - Primary _________________________________ Melodie ***** - Backup ??? ??- Handicap room - any cat ____ If you can volunteer one of the above listed cabins, please let me know. In addition, I am thinking of putting together a poker run for the Stateroom Tour. If you choose to participate, you will collect one (1) playing card from each stateroom. The best five (5) card poker hand at the end of the tour wins a prize. If there is interest, I will certainly put it together!

I am in for a GTY 4A.

Still looking for volunteers for the Cabin Crawl (Tour). I need the following cabin catagories:
Cat 4 (1) backup
Cat 7a obstructed (2) (#6134, #6634, #7120, or #7620) primary and backup
Cat 8 or 9 (2) primary and backup
Handicap Room


At the very least I need an obstructed 7a and a Cat 8 or 9 Deluxe Oceanview.

If you can help out, please let me know.

Hi!
I'm in a secret porthole room & I see you're looking for a back up. We're in 5020.
Please could you let me know what I would need to do?
Michala

 

[annichan]

I am also happy to offer our 5C stateroom up for viewing, even though that's probably not so exciting as a Navigators Verandah, or a suite, or a hidden sideways something-or-other .

Seems like our 5c is not needed then after all (less cleaning for me ), but we would still like to sign up for the viewing of the other rooms and the poker run! Is it enough to tell you here, or do you prefer a message on FB?
Annika (annichan) and Chris

 

[SucalT]

Thanks Michala. All you need to do is have your room presentable just incase we have to default to the backup room.

Once I have all rooms filled, I will start a sign up for the Poker Run.

If you are not participating in the poker run, there is no need to sign up. All you will need to do is show up at the designated time and place, to be determined later.

[Tiggrou]

I don't know my room number right now (we booked a GTY) but I would be more thant happy to visit other staterooms! Thank you for this fantastic idea!

 

[SucalT]

I need Oceanview Volunteers! Anyone with an Oceanview, Cat 8 or Cat 9, who can help with the Cabin Crawl, please let me know.

In addition, I need at least one Cat 4 as a backup. We almost have this thing wrapped up. Thank you ALL for volunteering your cabins for this event!

If you are interested in volunteering your cabin, all you need to do is be willing to allow several dozen of your closest new friends to visit your cabin in a large group, for just a few minutes.

 

[tojam]

Can we be added to the roll call as well? TOJAM , GTY room, TC(dh), Jamie(dw), Callen(3 years boy), Kinsey(1 year girl)

[LySand]

I need Oceanview Volunteers! Anyone with an Oceanview, Cat 8 or Cat 9, who can help with the Cabin Crawl, please let me know.

In addition, I need at least one Cat 4 as a backup. We almost have this thing wrapped up. Thank you ALL for volunteering your cabins for this event!

If you are interested in volunteering your cabin, all you need to do is be willing to allow several dozen of your closest new friends to visit your cabin in a large group, for just a few minutes.

You can see our room 9B GTY if you need a cabin. We also want to sign up for the cabin tour and poker run - there will be 2 of us.

Thanks

 

[SucalT]

Thank you Oceanview Volunteers!

In addition, I need at least:

-one Cat 4 as a backup
-one Obstructed Verandah (#6134, #6634, #7120)

We need these rooms for backup just in case our primary room is not available.

We almost have this thing wrapped up. Thank you ALL for volunteering your cabins for this event!

Can we be added to the roll call as well? TOJAM , GTY room, TC(dh), Jamie(dw), Callen(3 years boy), Kinsey(1 year girl)
Thanks so much.

I'm also missing on here. Can you add me in - Sarah GTY currently

Do we need a Deluxe ocean view with veranda added to the tour?

Three people from different corners of the world, with no personal knowledge of or relationship to each other, attempting to organize one project seems like a recipie for stress and hastle.

I would happily organize the event, but I will respectfully admit, with differing ideals, time zones, and work schedules, I would be unable to do it as a group.

I am not ashamed to admit my limitations.

I would like to do the tour also. We have a 4B GTY.

We did this on a couple cruises, including the WBTA in 2011, where a LOT of people participated and it was a lot of fun. On our Wonder cruise we only had 3 or 4 people do it, but one of them was in the Roy Suite (IIRC) and so it was nice to see that. I'd love to see one of those big aft balcony rooms and a navigator's verandah.

We had one of the big aft balconies before and it was really nice laying out on the large balcony reading a book or having coffee in the morning watching the sun rise.

Another sign we are closer....

In addition to giving the tipped service people their well earned monetary compensation, I like to give them a gift bag of consumable goodies. This includes snacks they don't have access to on the ship as well as a gender-neutral scent of air freshener from Bath & Body Works. (Hey....we like our staterooms to smell good, so why wouldn't they?!! I actually have had specific callouts of appreciation from cast members for this little can!) Anywhooooo, on the last TA I took, I gave them a gift bag at the 7 day mark in addition to the end of cruise. It felt great to pick up some items for their bags last night! It really makes it feel like we're that much closer!!

We'll be doing the Single Digit Week Dance in just a week!

 

[GatorMomInNC]

Thanks to everyone who has responded. I have PM'd everyone who I haven't heard from yet, but a couple people I wasn't able to PM, so if anyone knows:

Ed & Lori Walters (nannylori), #7054 or
Amanda & Anette #GTY

Please have them contact me.

Also, if you are not on the list on the first page and are interested in joining, please PM me. I could swear I had someone else contact me who wanted to do this if there was space, but I can't seem to locate the PM or a posting, so either I imagined it or already added them to the list

Right now I have 29 confirmed. The minimum is 25 and the max is 40, so we have enough for one group, but I'm not sure we will get 21 more people to break it into 2 smaller groups, which would be nice.

Thanks

I think it might have been me -- I posted that we were interested in the chocolate tasting if there was room - I have sent you a PM. Thanks for your work on this.

I think Lori Walters is in the Facebook group - I will post there and ask.

So even though I'm silver and could have booked excursions a while back, I have been so busy I didn't get around to it until this week. My biggest/hardest decision was whether to book Alhambra with private company or on our own or pay more and go through DCL and I picked DCL, but still not sure I made the right choice...

Doing the snorkeling and sting rays in Antigua and the 4x4 in St. Kitts. I had no problem getting what I wanted even I booked so late. Anyone else doing these?

The one thing I haven't decided is St. Maarten. I was just going to get a cab to a beach (Orient or Maho) but I saw that there are 2 other ships in port with us that day, a Carnival ship and the world's largest cruise ship, Allure of the Seas, so I think things will be busy and I may pre-book an excursion. Has anyone else booked anything interesting in St. Maarten or have any suggestions? We have been there before but didn't go on any ship excursion.

That is a lovely idea Kimberly - such a kind thought! I especially like the idea of giving the treat bag at the half way point of the trip - special.
