Yippie!! Time is running short and that means pretty soon I won't have to work extra hours for our vacation!!

Was anything decided on a meet and greet? Sorry if I am reasking something, but with my long days for the next two weeks, my brain gets a bit fried.

My dd13 will be 14 in December and is a bit shy when it comes to making friends. I thought if there was going to be someone her age on the cruise then maybe they can talk ahead of time and it would make it an easier transition for her so that it would be like she already knows someone. She is wanting to move up into the 14-17 group if they will let her but, I prefer her to stay in the 11-13 year old group. (Even though she is mature for her age). She is afraid that there are going to be mostly 11 and 12 year olds in that age group.

My DD Leia is 14, maybe they can meet up. She lives to dance, and loves tennis and school, particularly math. She wants to be an imagineer designing Disney roller coasters when she grows up.

I'm all for a 3 pm meet at the Promenade Lounge on Day 1. Count me in. I just hope I'm not the only one there.

I will totally be there. And DH should be wearing his "I'm on a boat" shirt so it shouldn't be hard to find us.

It sounds like we're arranging a meet on the first day, boarding day, at 3 pm in the Promenade Lounge. The Promenade Lounge is on the 3rd deck (?) and near Parrot Cay and the aft elevators.

I think I'll be wearing a purple sun dress (as it stands right now).
IMONABOAT will be wearing his "I'm On A Boat" t-shirt.

3rd deck, that's one deck up from our room so I should be able to find my way there! I have no idea what we are wearing yet. I'm sure I will post as soon as I know LOL.

I have sent out PMs to the seven participants of the SECRET MICKEYS. Please let me know if you have questions. I worked to make sure that Palmfam, Baxfam and Jaxsmom08 didn't have each other since they are family. So it worked out in the end.

The following seven cabins are participating in SECRET MICKEYS:

1.) Lenz4
2.) Palmfam
3.) Baxfam
4.) Jaxsmom08
5.) Paigerpoo
6.) Bluecashbah
7.) Schachteles

If each person listed above could fill out the following questionaire and PM it back to me ASAP (like before Friday if at all possible) so I can randomly match people up and get you your SECRET MICKEY so you can start getting prepared.

If you have any questions, please let me know!!

The Promenade Lounge is on the deck 3 just forward of the aft elevators and Parrot Cay. As you board the Magic, the CM's will point you down the hall to go to Parrot Cay or over to the aft elevators to Topsiders for the lunch buffet and you will pass through the Promenade Longe along the way. Here is a link to the layout of the Magic. Just click on "Virtual Tour" and select deck 3.

Cool career! My dd is Isabella. She loves music (her ipod) and her cell phone. She plays basketball and volleyball and likes math. She wants to be an accountant when she grows up. I am going to ask her if maybe she wants to email or facebook (if your daughter has one) her to see if they can get together on the cruise and if she does, I'll pm you her email or facebook.

This will be fun!! I can't tell you what my DH and I will be wearing, maybe I will wear my "I'm bringing Grumpy Back" t-shirt. I just hope the transfers we arranged for from the GF to the ship goes well, we were not told where to be on the morning of the 10th. I guess I better make a phone call....

I have to get that "I'm on a boat" phrase/song out of my head, its driving me bananas!

haha glad i could be of annoyance! its track 1 on the CD in my car so i manage to hear it quite often hah

 

[Anj]

So it's an actual song? I've actually caught myself chanting it in my head LOL.

I'm in that phase now where everything I purchase has to do with the cruise. Summer items are marked down 75% off here, I keep buying stuff and my friends are like 'too bad you can't wear it til next year'. Oh no, I'm going somewhere warm in a few weeks!

I bought pirate tattoo's today, as well as adult eye patches and pirate lanyards. Is it pretty standard to use lanyards to hold the KTTW?

 

[SoccrMom]

All,

I am so sorry to have dropped the ball on the FE stuff. I have to say that within the last six weeks my life has fallen apart in pretty much every way. I am just struggling to keep afloat, and this was one thing I could put on the back burner while I fought to stay ahead.

Please check the spreadsheet for the most accurate information. I believe that it looks like there are

schachteles
Palmfam
BaxFam
Jaxsmom08
Paigerpoo

That is what is on the spreadsheet. That you very much Schachteles for taking over while I was on a huge mental break.

Boy, after the hell of a beginning of a school year, I am certainly ready for a break on the boat!! I'll be the lady with the drink of the day in my hand at all times.

yes it is indeed an actual song

that is a censored version of the song paired up to a video someone made this year on the DCL...i almost fell over laughing, i posted this video before, but for those who missed it, here you go!

 

[Anj]

Thanks for the video, that was funny!

Denise,

I know how those times go, I certainly hope I didn't offend you by kinda just taking over. I get to be an obsessive planner by the end and just needed to get my things together.

Hope all is going better! Look forward to meeting you on the ship!

To everyone participating in the FISH EXTENDER swaps...I just sent each of you a PM with information for the 14 rooms of participants. It includes the people's names in each cabin along with ages of the kids and their room numbers...so you should be set to go!

Hope everyone is getting excited...I know the next three weeks is going to be LONG...though I am eagerly awaiting September 28th when we can book the cruise to Alaska!!!

Can't wait to meet everyone...we will plan to be at the lounge at 3pm on sailaway day!!
