05/09/2009 May 9, 2009 7-Night Eastern St Maarten... Watch Out!

[scottie]

Could anyone tell me where I could buy a CD of Disney Clip Art... I would like to make some magnets for my grand-daughter cabin door and surprise her...
She loves the Disney Princeness and Tinker Bell and the Faries...

You may also want to check out this thread on the main cruise board.... 230+ pages of Disney graphics for magnets and other fun projects you may think up

Just got off the Phone with Hyatt- placed an order for my Stay Certificate for Friday night! Cant wait for the big day to roll around!

I had to book rooms for relatives before and after the cruise. Did I miss a deal?

Thanks,

Valerie

No, I don’t think you missed a deal unless all the rooms are gone for the stay certificates. I guess they have limited rooms for it.
Here is a link to the part of the Hyatt site for them:
https://www.certificates.hyatt.com/ConsumerCerts.aspx?icamp=HY_GiftCards_HPGS

Basically I called the Hyatt reservation number and asked to book a room for a Choice level Stay certificate. They booked the room and held it with a credit card.
I then called the number on the Stay certificate part of the site and bought a Choice level certificate for $135 plus $6 FedEx. That covers the cost of the room, no tax on top of it so a pretty good deal compared to all the other rates out there.

When you check in at the hotel you hand over the certificate and head on to the room! I have never done it before but read up on it via the DIS boards and people who have and it sounds like a nice way to stay at Hyatt MCO and save a few $!

I want to apologize for my delayed response regarding the FE; I misunderstood and thought we were already on the FE list. We are definitely participating! Here is our info:

DISboard name: akl432
Room: a guaranteed but not yet assigned Cat 12
Names: Frank (soon-to-be 60), Esther (61), Nicole (29)
Celebrating: We are celebrating Frank & Esther's 36th anniversary and Frank's 60th birthday.

We booked relatively late (March 6), so I'm not sure how far in advance we will know what our room number is. Do you have any suggestions for how to handle this?

Can't wait until May 9!!!

 

[DisneyMommy1022]

Ok I have received all my confirmations so tomorrow I will post the list with the total room's, adults, and children!

Hi,
I was just reading through the post i would take it the FE list is closed. I Bought an FE and will still hang it so my daughter can see her door decorated

Can't Wait til we sail away Hope everyone Had a Nice St. Patty's Day

I thought it would be fun to post a pic of ourselves so that when we get on the ship we can put a face with the name... Just thought it would fun!

Kristen, we (meaning someone else) did this for our westbound Panama Canal cruise. Here is a link to the archived site: http://www.tiggerfan.net:81/canal/

Each thumbnail opened a larger picture. It was great for putting faces to screen names and made it a lot easier to spot people on the ship. If we did this sort of thing for this cruise, we could add a column for the FE participants, special occasions, a link to the FE map at the top, a page for excursions, and any other info we can think of.

I'm not the most artistic or technical, but I can whip something simple up if enough people are interested in seeing a list with photos.

I think it would be great to have something like that for our info!!! OK What do you need from me? I am willing to help in any way possible!

Do you know what room # your in? I will be sure to drop something off for your daughter. Last year on our cruise (we were not part of the DIS boards yet) my daughter saw all these people with their FE so she made one in Ocean quest (out of paper) not knowing how or what it was all about. We asked someone that we saw handing out their gift. Not expecting anything several people drop off gifts (that's true DIS LOVE) and I added a few for her (it was a 2 week cruise) it was amazing how excited my kid got when they saw something. I'd like to pass on that DIS love

 

[Royfam]

I like this idea!

I agree, I love it!!!

 

[dollysmom]

I Love this idea!!! I mean I thought the bracelets would be a great ice breaker, but this is even more informative.

I agree - we may/may not be able to give to everyone, but I'd at least like to know where the kids may be so we can try to make their day with a thought here and there.

To all that are involved in the FE exchange. I am going to leave this up to you. I know that some of you are wanting a TOTAL # of rooms so that you can get your gifts done.

THanks Royfam,
We booked Room 6134 (SVR) I was also going to bring some things to have her find she's going to be 4 this is her B-Day cruise i know she would enjoy passing things out too so i was going to bring some for everyone anyway. I understand there has to be a cut of time and we booked late. Thank you for having the Disney Spirt it what makes everything Disney Special

I'm tring to catch up on all the post my coworker laugh @ me because i spend all day now reading the boards than doing my job LOL.

Kristen -

I'm fine with adding the last two families to the FE list. I think there is still enough time to prepare for them.
