09/18/11 - DVCers Take Over the Dream (S.S. Member Cruise 2011) - Thread #13

I am just sitting here snickering at this thong picture. We all will be shocked if we actually see somebody wearing one of these on Castaway Cay! I know I would ! This group here are so much fun.

Hi Marsha!!!

Just before or after the cruise, I will send the latest Mini-Navigator back to you. I really appreciate you getting me off on the right foot, as I would have never invented anything that nice. We have more names this year, so I'm really having to scrunch things together, to fit it all in.

DO YOU THINK YOU CAN SCRUNCH JUNIORS CLASS IN, WE MIGHT NEED IT AFTER DINNER

Happy Friday Dispeeps!

WHERE DID YOU FIND A POST CRUISE PHOTO

 

[Hoosier John]

For the first-timers, DVC has a tradition of taking a group photo during the second morning at Castaway Cay of everyone on the ship who is interested. Probably 1000 people line up at Boat Harbor Beach forming the next number for the number of times they have done this cruise. So we might be forming a huge "10" out of people standing in the sand. The photo is then taken as a birds-eye view from a cherrie-picker.

I wondered if this year we wanted to create a cell of DISpeeps within the others? We would probably need to meet somewhere before the photo and move in as a group. And I would think we need to meet somewhere other than Boat Harbor Beach, because once we get there, they will be ushering us into the formation.

Lara and I have done this a couple of times, but opted out other times. Is anyone interested in trying to form a DIS cell? If we all had the same color on, we could form an image (Hidden Mickey?) within the larger group.

Another advantage is that if we can pick out our group, at least we know where we were in the photo. I've tried to note where I was standing to pick myself out of the crowd, but have never been able to do it.

Sounds like a good idea John.

John, Make sure this gets added to the mini-nav, 11 am CC pilates @ serenity bay. Let me know how many sign up.

Okay, so far we have one guy from northern Indiana. Anyone else want to join him?

Just wanted to pop in and say "Safe travels to everyone & have a dreamy cruise."

We loved the Dream. We went last month. I wish I had more time. The 5-nights were not enough. I did not get a chance to explore every inch of ship. Take plenty of pictures and post them when you come back. Take pictures of the gifts you get. When we were on last month, we received the standard DVC lanyards but they were in a nice DVC wooden box.

Great to hear from you-Molly asked if Charles was going "with us"- Take good care we'll miss you.

Hi John
I did a quick search and found a 2003 DVC Member Cruise Blog http://monorailgreen.info/member/Intro.htm
Green neon shirts, neon green circles held by each person to form a "Hidden Mickey"? I figure neon green would stand out because it's the theme of the Disboards

When we are on the cruise, Charles asked if Molly was on the ship. When I told him she was not, he asked why not.

I still have quite a bit to do. Waiting on my memory card from Best Buy - says I should get it Monday. Thought I'd have it by now. Ordered last week.
