[MrsMork]

That would be Me..

If you feel secure enough, feel free to post Cabin Number here... If not a PM will work..

We don't have little ones to worry about and Hey if someone wants to waste their cruise by stalking me.. More power to them..

We are in room 7500.. All the way forward.. last door on the right.. Need a map? We have Palo on Monday at 8pm.. We are doing excursions at both Islands and we are late night Dinner seating.. And we plan to attend the Art Auction.. DH will probably play some Bingo.. I'll give you a full schedule if ya want..

AND you have Palo brunch Sunday at 10:30!!

Thanks MrsMork for your post about your RV. Sounds wonderful.

This one place in Rapid City has not emailed me back, but I think they have only Class C and D. I think with 3 of us for less than a week should be fine.

O.k.... I am fairly new to disboards, but i will try!

secret santa: Alot of the dissers are participating in a secret santa exchange, where you hang a stocking outside your stateroom and then you put little trinkets, candy etc in the other participants. I don't remember who is organizing it, or if it is too late to join.

pirates: I just figured this out i think, someone should post the pirate scores soon, but if you post on a multiple of 100, 500 or 1000 you get a "pirate". I believe it is Jsmom who is keeping a tally.

and im not sure about the lime green lanyard but i love pins!

We are designing our own lanyards, since DCL is no longer giving out the CC Lanyards to repeater cruisers. They are to be $3.00 each, and Wendy is ordering them and keeping track of it. We need to order 100 of them. If we can get our group up to 100, it will be our cruise specific. If now, it will be dis cruise generic.

Oh wow that would be really cool to have a cruise specific lanyard!
are we close to 100?

 

[MrsMork]

...maybe I'm reading this wrong (or maybe it's my Monday-brain)...

...you need reservations for the character breakfast? How would I go about getting these reservations? (I didn't notice a button for that when I login to disneycruise...)

DD is only 2, so I'm not sure if it would be totally lost on her...

Everybody gets them. You will have a little card in your room and your servers will remind you of the day/time to show up.

I only bought my tickets 2 1/2 weeks ago, so...

I do not know what the secret Santa is,

I do not know what it means to get a pirate,

I did read something about lime green lanyards. That is the extent of my knowledge of the dis boards. Except, of course, that tonight I found out and old friend will be cruising too

Please clue me in....

Secret Santa also known as Secret Mickey Exchange.. We are doing a fun stress free way to start the Holiday season off.. We are hanging stockings on our fish and we will secretly go Cabin to Cabin and leave little presents in each others stockings without getting caught.. Pencils, Erasers, toys, tattoos, stickers, anything and everything fun..

Although, some of us are going to try to catch our "Reindeer" and take her picture as she tries to and Not get caught..

If you would like to join, please PM me your Cabin number and the age and sex of the children..

And if there are any allergies to anything..

 

[MrsMork]

Tina could probably tell you several places where you can get Spanx! But seriously, I think you can get them at Lane Bryant and I'm not sure where else.

Target maybe, or it might be their own brand there, but same idea. Or you can google and find them.

Hmmm...last count was 57 I think?? It will hold our KTTW Cards!

 

[MrsMork]

Is this New? Or only for people with young kids? Only offered on the Magic? cause we did the Magic last year and didn't get any tickets for it..

It is only on the 7 day and on sea days. I'm surprised you did not hear about it from your servers last year. We went to our first in 2002.

 

[MrsMork]

is the palo brunch attire formal like tux, formal like suit, or is long sleeve dress shirt acceptable?

resort casual for brunch and tea. No shorts, no t-shirts. Polo shirts and slacks for men, nice slacks or dress for ladies.

 

[AmberDaClown]

I am really wondering if we should skip the CB. I keep reading of continued disappointment. I know my DD will not care about the food, but not having the characters going from table to table sounds a bit disappointing.

What do the others with kids think?

They are called ASSETS at Target

Those involved in the secret santa, Is the list of staterooms being handed out at the meet and greet? We might not be able to go (we have our civil wedding ceremony before we leave port, this is to make it official, its a dcl thing i guess). And are people putting their names on the items or just dropping them in?

Is there a final count? we need to order our "stuffers" online

 

[mommyoftwinfants]

I am just taking a couple hundred of little things since their are 4 of us and we will put something in the stockings everyday.

Yes, yes I do.. Thank You soo Very much.. I am way excited cause we've never done Brunch

Now.. all I need is a High Tea and my Cruise is complete.. but, if I have to wait til September 08 I will wait..

 

[KrisannB]

thanks to everyone for all the kind words for my hubby, about my mom and the room upgrade. I was checking it out on the layout and it seems like it will be great. Last cruise we were across from the room where the luggage was taken in/out which was not a major deal expect when they were collecting the luggage the last night but it was no deal breaker. This time we have another room across from us.

Guess I need to have the room number changed for the secret santa list. Glad I had not made a door sign yet!

 

[MrsMork]

How do they board us? according to room catagory or do we get in line or something?

They give you a boarding number when you enter the port. The suites and disabled persons board first, then by boarding number.

Is there an Official time they start letting you on the ship? We've never been to the terminal where we got a number.. The last 2 cruises we were in a 3 though, so we got the concierge line and had no wait and no number..

What about people who use DCL Transportation at like the butt crack of dawn? Do they have to wait in the terminal too with a call number? Just curious.. We are flying in the night prior to sail date..

Heroes soon.. then Journeyman..
Back inbetween commercials

Yes, everyone except suites gets a number regardless of how you got there or when. They open the terminal around 10-10:30 and yep, folks are in line outside waiting for them to open so that they don't have to stand in line.

Great episode. Really caught us up!!!
