We have new pictures. We are up to 33 pictures in the album. Deck 8 is now represented - Joshua121301 and crew. We also have pictures of Crainbow and his crew mate as well as Tomspixie and crew. This is getting good!!!!

Decks 5,6,7 and 8 are all represented with 5 leading the way. Any other takers?

Has anyone started on Door Magnets? I started kicking a few around today.

Any thoughts for a common DIS Magnet?

Hello Everyone! My kids and I made a paper chain (red, black, yellow and white paper) that started today- 6/1- to count down to the cruise! It runs the length of our stairwell at the moment, can't wait 'til it's almost gone!

I'm excited we're almost to the 90 day mark, and jealous of those of you who have already made their Palo and spa reservations! Hope you didn't take my spots =).

Those of you with the magnet pics you've posted- I love them! Where do you get the clip art, and what program are you using? I've downloaded a Disney font, but the only program I have to do anything like that is something like Print Shop. I am sure I could make something up in Print Shop, but not without the artwork!

thanks!

Courtney

Courtney: I love the idea of your paper chain! I'm going to make one tonight with my son. Great idea!

I like the door magnets you are all doing. My DH laughed at me when I told him I wanted to do one. He'll just have to get over it. I like the idea of a group one too. I'll have to play around with making one for our family.

Jeff, I emailed you a pic of our family - DH Dennis, Me Melissa and DS Edison. We're in 7596.

Welcome Felkos. I like doing Palo (brunch) at about 11:00 AM. Glad to have more dis members on board.

Thanks

You guys have done an awesome job on door magnets!!!!! Do you do it strictly from your own computer??? Remember, we are very un-techy!

We are currently down at WDW and enjoying time with the kiddos! They have really been gearing up for golf season! All summer is full of tournaments and then our oldest will start high school. She is planning on participating on the girl's golf team and it is in the fall!

Hope you are all enjoying the beginning of summer! Pixie Dust to all!!!!

This one is a bit butchered up, but it was a fun idea.

Ahoy everyone! Just popping in to see how many have made their Palo, spa, excursion reservations on-line yet. I'm guessing Castaway Club guests can do it tomorrow. Can anyone in suites give feedback on the process? I'm hoping everything is quick and easy. Can't believe we're in double digits!!

Does everyone have their excursions picked out? I think we're going to do everything on our own especially since we want to head out to Maho beach to watch the planes for a bit. Looks exciting! Anyone done this before?

"I'm guessing Castaway Club guests can do it tomorrow."

CC members can start booking on Sunday, 4 JUN. That is what my ressies say and there are two 31 day months over the next 3 months.

We have not decided what excursions we are going to take. This is more a chill session for both of us. I know that we want to try the Palo brunch, going to shoot for Sunday or Monday. We have not decided on doing the dinner also.

Luckymommyx2,

The online booking was very simple. It's pretty much point and click. It automatically adds to your daily itinerary in your reservation.

Thanks Chuck. I didn't see a date anywhere on my reservation that stated when I can start booking. Now I'm a little nervous. Do you remember what screen? I just finished filling out our passport info on-line so that's taken care of.

Thanks Brian...I'm hoping everything goes smoothly.

No fair, you mad me look up the online ressie. It was not there, but on my paper copy it was listed with the date. Online it mentions 75 days before sailing you can make a ressie if not a CC member. 90 if you are. It does have me linked with the CC# that I had sent to me now. Sunday morning is going to be interesting to see if it works.

I have not filled out the forms yet. I am thinking of doing it soon. Want to get that out of the way ASAP. Also need to sit down and talk with the DW on what we do on port days. Me being the pale type that turns various shades of red, the beach is not really an option.

Wooooohooooo Three months out, paid up and almost time to try on line resservations! Now we're getting excited. It's always so much more real when we have it paid for.
