Hello Everyone,

We're sailing on the Thanksgiving cruise as well. It'll be me, DH, DS (13) and DD (11). We're from The Woodlands.



Hi Julie---Heidi mentioned you were on this cruise. It seems like so long ago that we all sailed together on the Med. We're starting to get excited about this one!

Hi Sharon,

I thought that was you (poohkinandpiglet). Welcome!! So glad y'all can join us for Thanksgiving. Can't wait to see familiar faces again and of course, meet new ones too

Here is an updated list of the F/E exchange.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AsmkQNaikh9OdHdTcHFfaEdDdmVXQmlUV2JtZkxnaVE

This is a list of everyone that has PM'd me - it looks like there may be others participating that had not PMd me.

You should be able to download the list from google docs, hopefully I set the privacy settings correctly.

We, unfortunately, had to cancel our cruise recently. We are very sad, but my parents are moving to GA to be closer to my brother and we are feeling obligated to visit them in their new house for Thanksgiving, sigh.

Hope you all have a great time!

Hi Dagny,

Sorry to hear that you won't be joining us. Hope you can make it on another DCL cruise in the future.

I PMed you our room info along with my sister and BIL but it's not on the current list. How do we edit/revised it to get all the new people on there? Thanks.

Julie

Hello Everyone,

I need to figure out how to do those smilies from my phone.
Cause that's exactly how I feel.

 

[cruisecrasher]

60 days!
And it's my birthday!
30 feels much less old than I'd have thought.

 

[dato63]

Considering my next birthday I'll hit 50, 30 sounds awfully young to me!

Happy birthday! I hope you enjoy every bit of your 30s!!

And yes! Since we are heading to Galveston the day before the cruise - we are under 60 days. . . .

Hey everyone! I am just getting caught up with this thread!

cruisecrasher and poohkinand piglet- I live in the Woodlands also- Sterling Ridge!

jules4172 and pookinandpiglet- are you talking about Heidi from White Glove? i know her too, we were on the Fantasy july 4 cruise together.

hadleyzoo- I have a 12 year old son also.
abs1978-I have twin boys that just turned 2 last month.

Some of you were asking about the pillowcase markers. I have used both sharpies and crayola fabric markers and don't see any difference in the two. I have seen both recommended by members of this board.

I was told by the concierge that the formal night is Nov 18, Pirate night is the 21st, and semi-formal night is Thanksgiving the 22nd.

Hi everyone, I created a FB group for this cruise, since i don't know of one that already exists. We had a FB group for our last cruise and it was very helpful!

In case the link doesn't work it is called " November 17, 2012 Disney Cruise on the Magic"

Hi All - I decided to join in on the posting. We will be on this cruise as well. It will be myself, DH, DD12, DD7, and DS5. My parents will also be joining us. We live in the Atascocita/Kingwood area and my parents are in Austin. I sailed on the Wonder in 2008 with oldest DD and my parents, but this will be the first Disney cruise for my DH and two youngest children. We are all super excited and counting down the days.

Thank you!!!!

Does anyone know when the FE will be finalized and closed? I just want to make sure I have enough of everything I need.

Is it too late to join the FE list? I read back through the previous posts and wasn't sure if I should PM Dagny or not?

Thanks!

 

[thedisneydiva]

Actually there is nothing going on over on the FB page yet- I just created it yesterday. On the 4th of july cruise on the Fantasy we had an awesome group of over 82 people in the FB group-it is not meant in any way to replace this board but it is easier to share photos over there and get to know people, add friends, etc. In addition to this thread. Even after the cruise the group is still going strong with people sharing pictures, etc. I don't think I even know how to post a pic here, LOL!

I wouldn't email Dagny, she has posted that she had to cancel her cruise.

Those who have sailed DCL before - is there normally a cut off date? I guess it makes sense there would be so people would have a good head count to prepare for. If so, how far out is it typically?

I'm still working on mine - so leaannk if you wouldn't mind sending me your information I'd be happy to add you to my copy of the FE list. Need stateroom #, how many adults - and how many kids w/gender & ages.
