We got no letter. Maybe next week.

We didn't get a letter either! We are so sad!

Hi everybody!
I've missed posting this weekend and look how much happened!
I've ordered my green shirts.
I haven't gotten a letter from DCL
I'm about to download my newsletter but I have dialup. So, I guess I'll start downloading, then do the dishes, and clean the house. It will give me something to look forward to.
I have two options for a dress for formal night .

I'M TOO EXCITED TO SLEEP!

I just skimmed thru the pages & added up how many green shirts we have so far....my count is 44. We are definitely going to stand out.

 

[MommyMinnie]

Just got the newsletter printed.
PJ is sooooo Cool!

All the other cruisers are going to be so jealous.

 

[MommyMinnie]

Lisa,
Is there a general idea about the banner? Size, Color, etc?

 

[lbgraves]

I will post a picture of the banner when I get it finished.

Have you guys seen the embarkation photo for the DD cruises?

 

[lbgraves]

Just browsing at DD.com and found something that I thought I would share. I did this for our last cruise. Mickey grad stuffed toys appeared on the beds (with the assistance of our stateroom host) on Thursday night with the towel animals (the day they have the kid's show). I also have a diploma that I made up for DSeaU. LMK if anyone would like the file with their child's name on it.

I had a moment to read the newsletter and all I can say is WOW. PJ you did a fantastic job. How fun to read and I love all the pictures.

 

[MrsMork]

I do like the embarkation photo. Can't wait! I'm too excited to sleep!!

The other cruisers are so gonna want to be us!

Have you already started it?
If not would you consider letting someone else do it?

Kim, please let Lisa email your address to all of us and let US send you SASEs. We would not want you to have to spend the $$ for shipping to all of us on top of all you are already doing. This is a very nice thing you are doing and we are very excited to have bracelets to identify our fellow DISers all over the ship. I think this is going to be another trip where everyone else on board is gonna wish they were us.

I saw this suggestion after my last post, I cannot remember if it was becca, but it would be really helpful. It would be a lot less envelopes to address! I will give Lisa my address to put on the website and if you can just let me know how many to send when you send the envelope, that would be great! When I did counts, I planned on at least 2 per child (loss factor) so when you give counts, know that I planned on that. Also, if you are an adult that has trouble with small things, you can get 2 or 3 extra too! I ordered 300. I wanted to post this now in case I forgot. I am still reading, so more in a sec.....

I am planning to use it on next year's cruise too. Once done...will do the job. If you wanted to do one too, feel free!

 

[kimerinc]

I was thinking about adding the double dip iron- on to the sleeve of the tee-shirts????? i know it would be smaller.....

Hey did anyone else get the packet from the cruise line today? It is a vary nice booklet that list all the shore excursions for Cozumel/Costa Maya/ and Castaway Cay, Quick tips for a smooth sailing, Gifts, Setting Sail-Disney Magic, and information concerning renting formal wear.

The letter that is with lists when your final payment is due and the date that you can start to make reservations.

We have been on 7 cruises and this is the first time we have gotten this!!

You got something? I am so jealous! Did you book through a TA or disney?

This could get confusing with the postage cost. Do you have access to a postage scale? That way you could use a 5x7 envie & weight it with different amounts of bracelets to make sure that they don't get returned. I'll just wait to get ours at 1900.

Hey I know those people!

Hi Angie! Say hi to Dennis for us!

PJ - great job on the newsletter!

 

[lbgraves]

You do? It's a great shot, Mary! Did you notice any of them with people wearing lime green shirts?

 

[lbgraves]

We ordered ours but were going to get a Lime shirt for DS5 and improvise ..But his will look like the rest when I am done with ..LOL

Were they out of them in the kid's sizes already? Did you talk your sister's family into getting them?
