04/10/2011 Mexican Riviera Cruise

[Mindyjoy]

Are we planning a meet the first day and if so where and when?

Thanks,
Cass

I don't think there has been a decision. Someone mentioned meeting in front of Tritons but I don't know about a time. 3:00? 3:30? :


Thanks for updating the FE list Hoppin!!!

 

[hoppin62]

I have a humble suggestion, Hoppin. Maybe post the picture/link of the FE spreadsheet in Post #1, since you authored the first post? That way it won't get lost in the shuffle again.

Done!

Chrisrunty,
Just so we know is your entire family wanting to particpate in the FE or just your son? We counted you and your husband......

THanks,
Cassandra

Howdy and i am just sooooo excited i can't wait. I hope we are ok with all three of us for the FE.(me, DH and kid) If not no biggie.

Casiland finished our Fish Extender the other day, and I love it. So nice to have crafty friends. I completed the FE gifts for the adults, and I am now ready to start packing. I can't wait to go on the cruise. I feel like the little kid and the parents in the Disney commercial where the kid says"I'm to excited to sleep".

The one thing I am looking forward to the most is to disconnect from the internet, cellphone, and any electronics. I am bringing books to read. What a treat, no cooking, cleaning, work, phonecalls, e-mails.....

Hi everybody. Almost there. Just doing some research for special things for the cruise. Did anybody do that "pay it forward" postcard. Someone on a previous cruise will send a postcard to your kids, and then you have to do the same to someone else. Dont know exactly how it works, but it seems interesting. Also has anybody heard of the secret deck on deck 7?

 

[chrisrunty]

We've been to the secret deck 7. It is a small deck that is usually empty and has some lounge chairs etc. We didn't stay there just looked at it because there is so much we want to do on the ship.

We've been there too. Nice, quiet place but everytime we went there was always some ladies there doing yoga. So, not really that secret anymore. lol

 

[Mindyjoy]

I've read that sometimes DCL will host morning yoga on Deck 7, which interests me, but on the recent MR Navigators it looks like yoga is held in the fitness center. Maybe too cold to do it outside on this coast.

 

[Mindyjoy]

Has everyone been following the story of the missing Wonder Cast Member? My heart breaks for everyone involved.

I noticed that too. Maybe they'll start to have it on deck by the time we cruise since it will be a little warmer? Either way, I'm going to TRY to be there

Yes, it's such a sad situation. My thoughts and prayers go out to all those involved. I just honestly can't imagine how hard it is for the CMs right now.

Well MAYBE we can try to motivate each other.

I still haven't decided if I'll be taking a vacation from exercising. I'm bringing my workout clothes, but, we'll see how it goes.

 

[DisFanInCO]

I'll definitely need some motivation! My DH just laughed at me when I told him I was bringing my workout clothes. I'm sure he's right, I'll probably want to sleep in or something, but at this point I'm telling myself I'll be really good

Hmm, maybe we aren't the best people to motivate each other!

I have been following.. sad... a little scary.
I just hope that foul play is not involved. There is not too many facts out right now. It should all come out on Sunday when the ship returns. I'm sure there will be media at the port.

 

[mafpi]

Yes, I've been following since day 1. I actually called DCL today, and they just refered to the statement. Prayers go out to all affected.

 

[mafpi]

I just ordered my stateroom gifts. I ordered a flower arrangement, the bon voyage decorations and sparkling cider and chocalte strawberries. Cant wait to see my wifes and kids faces when they see this.

Poor Mickey. Talk about an eye-popping experience.

Hoppin, I see you have 7 year old twins too. Do yours like the kids' clubs? Mine (b/g) have been a little hesitant in the past, but I'm hoping they'll meet some friends and want to spend more time in there this trip.

When we cruised on the Wonder in 2008, they cried and did not want to be left alone. The twins were 4 years old at the time and had not started school yet. They were used to being with mom all the time. As long as my oldest was with them, they loved the club. My older daughter had to stay with them in their club, then we would pick them up so that that my oldest can go to her own club
Now that they have been in school for a few years, all they talk about is going to their club alone! I guess since they have been in school, they have gotten used to being left there with no mom or dad so now I think they are ready to take on the club! ...... I hope!
