10/2/2011 Disney Dream 4nt

[nlginny]

Hi Y'all, Just thought I would drop in and say Hi! We are doing the 10/2 - 10/6 B2B and have been hanging around on the B2B meet thread but it's kinda dead. Hope y'all don't mind if I drop in and hang out here now and then! We will be @ CI&S night before. Don't know what y'all have planned, but if anyone is @ CI&S, maybe we could get together at the pool that night.

Hi BigRed1! Its been kind of slow here on the threads. Only 3 odd days left. Are the B2Bers organizing a meeting? Ours is 3 in the atrium. Dont know what day though. It would be nice to meet you and say hi!

I meant 30 odd days left, lol!

From looking at the development of hurricane Irene she will be a big and powerful storm by the time she gets to the Castaway Cay area. Early indications look like Irene may be a cat 4 in the area of Castaway Cay. I hope the island fares well since we are there in 6 weeks on our cruise and if there is a great deal of damage the island may be closed for a while like in 1999 and in 2004 after the island sustained damage from hurricanes. Castaway Cay needs a big dose of pixie dust to get through this storm this week.

We will be praying that Castaway Cay weathers the storm well!
We are in CT and Irene is heading right for us! We are used to blizzards here, but not hurricanes! The last hurrican to hit us was in 1991 and they are saying that Irene is bigger & stronger!

Wishing everyone in her path stay safe!

I saw 3 days and had to look to see if I posted on the wrong thread! We don't have anything planned yet, can't get anybody on the thread long enough to talk about it! I will start pushing buttons over there to see if I can get something planned. Even though we have different threads going, we are all Disers and it would be great to meet everyone!

From a B2B cruiser currently on the Dream, Castaway Cay has sustained substantial damage....

I am writing this from Olive's Restaurant in Nassau, on the Dream doing a back to back (this is the 2nd one.)

I was told by several staff at guest services that the damage is heavy and bulldozers are being sent in. A full team is en route today. They told me CC would be out of commission for at least a few cruises. Reported roofs blown off and water in Cookies II.

Hello Everyone!

Sorry for not being on to make FE updates! As you know I went out to the D23|Expo weekend before last and I ended up making an impromptu trip to Epcot on Saturday (Working for an airline has it's benefits...). I will get updates made today.

I think we are about at the point of closing the list after these updates. What does everyone think? That would put us right at the 30 day mark.

Once we have determined that the list is done and acurate, I will also put together a printer-friendly version that will spell it all out nicely. I think at this point it might be wise to get a confirmation from everyone on the list that they are indeed still interested (and on the cruise still...someone may have, as they say, jumped ship!) So, all FE participants, PLEASE send me a PM with confirmation. Also let me know any updates that may need to be made to your listing.

THANKS!

Oh, I also went to a presentation at D23 about designing the Dream and Fantasy! So cool! We got to see the new show going into Animator's Pallate on the Fantasy...I have not even seen the show on the Dream yet and am already excited about the new version! It will be very interactive.

We will be on this cruise as well .DH Josh (Me), DW Katie, DD (2) . First time cruisers and I have been away from the boards for awhile but now I find myself on here daily as the cruise approaches.

 

[YenSid1222]

Got cruise docs in the mail yesterday! Getting close now!

 

[nlginny]

I got our cruise docs too! Not long now!

MythicalBee, he won't be potty trained by the cruise so I think that means he's in the nursery. I hope he does ok in there I'm hoping he can make a few little friends and that will make it easier for him to be there alone. Are all your kids going to the Oceaneers lab?

YenSid1222, I would like to confirm that we are in for the FE thing, but I'm such a newbie on these boards and it says I can't send PM until I have 10 posts

 

[tarantim]

cruise veterans,
does the A after the stateroom number on our tags signify something we should know about?

 

[wltdsnyfan]

No Cruise docs here but got the Magical Express for before.

 

[Peruvian]

Hi yensid.
I confirm our participation in the FE list. We already bought the gifts. I can't send PM until I have 10 posts. No updates, the room still the same #7521.

I got my Cruise docs when I got home! I like the way they send them with the luggage tags in a little booklet.

I also have to tell you about this. The phone rang and it was DCL I go oh no what could have happened. Well my husband and my son were doing the jet ski's and they were calling to tell me they don't have them any more. Don't know when it starts but they won't have for are cruise. They got rid of them becaue of all the trouble they had with them. Oh well.

have a good evening

 

[MichelleCiav]

Hi! Like Peruvian, I don't have enough posts to send a PM, but wanted to confirm our participation in the FE program. All our info is still the same.

I can also confirm my sister's participation and that her info has not changed. (She doesn't have enough posts for a PM either). She added her name to the list under "melsmith" -- herself, husband, daughter and son.

If you have any questions, let me know. Thanks!

Our boys will be in the Oceaneer Club - I purposely potty trained him in May hoping he'd take to it so he and his brother could be together! Also, being at the very oldest end of the nursery's age spectrum, worried he'd try to wrestle the 6 month olds!!

There's a Facebook page for our group - I think we're trying to make a meeting happen?

We always worry about our kids in new environments, but they usually do great and we're comforted that we can check on them every 10 minutes if we want!!! It would totally annoy them, but hey - that's what parents are for
