Coffeeguy48/Coffeegirl.....do your friends that are traveling with you have a DIS name?

Pam

 

[Coffeeguy48]

We have a couple other families from FL also......Oviedo, Land O Lakes. Just let me know your cabin number when you get it and I will be glad to add you to our list. Take a look at the list and get familiar with our group. We have approx. 63 with your family now.

We are planning on meeting on deck 10 directly across from the big screen at 4:30 for the sailaway party. Hope you can join us.

Pam

Hey, we're from Land O lakes.....Do you have kids going? What school? Where do you live in Land o lakes?

 

[Coffeeguy48]

Where has coffee guy been? Are we doing a room for wine night or out on the deck?

First, we are probably confusing you because both my husband and I use his coffee guy name... oh well. Sorry. Okay, SO I (coffee girl) heard back from Disney. They can not accomodate our wine party in the evening. It would have to be during the day, or as they recomment about 5:00 before dinner. If we still want to do it at night, we can do it ourselves. We can meet and if we want some snacks just order them individually from room service, no? Should we all bring our own wine glasses???? we will need to use plastic if it is up on deck.....So, to make things easy, let's do this..... 10:00 Deck 10 AFT 1st night...Bring a snack, a bottle of wine to share (or not), and glasses or cups for yourself (remember, no glass). I am sure you can get plastic cups on deck but not sure about wine glasses.....How does that sound to everyone?

 

[Coffeeguy48]

Speaking of Fish Extenders, I'm working on an Excel file with the list in order of room number and have listed all the pertinent info for each family (hopefully). If anyone wants me to email them the file when it's done just send me a pm with your email address.

I think we will all need the info... perhaps you can bring copies with you and hand it out at the sail away party? Or Just post the link here so we can download it and print it....

 

[Coffeeguy48]

On one cruise I was on, we had so many people participating that I did one deck per day. Of course it was an 11 night cruise, so I had time!!

Oh and the love bugs have finally made it to Mississippi! Does this mean they are not in Florida anymore??


Pam

OH NO! THey are here! Disgusting little things!

That 11 night cruise was a blast! In 11 days there were a lot of get togethers! Did you go to the wine party hosted int he Disney Suites, oh my goodness!

Coffeeguy48/Coffeegirl.....do your friends that are traveling with you have a DIS name?

Pam

No, no Dis names. BTW I did tell you all that I got the buttons, right? I won't put them in the FE's but hand them out at the sail away party, aye aye!

My DD(13) goes to Seminole Middle. We are hoping that she can meet other girls so she feels good going to the Big Kids/Teens activities. We did tell her that it is a family vacation, so if she wants, she can stay with us. I just think it will be nice if she can do some things with friends. That way, maybe, just maybe, the DW and I can sneak out a date.

Quick question. If we are not going to Palos, do we need to bring dress up stuff?

If so, I'm sure I'm going to need another luggage piece with two girls.

I am bringing 2 casual outfits and 1 dress up just because I want a family picture. After the confusion about pirate night and dress up night being on the same night I opted for dress up. I may bring some kind of pirate themed tshirt just incase it ends up being a different night.

Of course you dont have to eat in the dining room, therefore no need for dressy clothes. Your option.

 

[TiggerzFan]

If it weren't for Palo, I doubt our crew would be brinigng anything dressy, opting for the Pirate attire. There probably isn't even a time for my DDs to wear Princess dresses. This 3-night cruise has me stressed... there isn't enough time to do everything. All the more reason to rebook onboard (as always) and beat the fuel surcharge!

I am totally stressed also! How do I do everything that there is to do???

Happy Birthday Colby

Hope you have a GREAT Day!! Can't wait to meet you in 17 days!!!!




Pam and Family

Pam you're awesome! And you're right behind. Group Birthday party over wine !!!! Yipeeeee, can't wait.

Sounds good. Let's get a back up plan. If the wind is whipping on deck 10, as it sometimes does, how about we meet by the adult pool on deck 9? If it's raining, how about the internet cafe/lounge bar area on deck 4 next to Animators?

Pam, let me try to remember who is sailing with me and who's in which room!
I am in 1051 sharing a cabin with Bloondaddy (DH Bill) and Colby (DS 7 )
next door in cabin 1053 will be Poppy538 (Pop - everybody calls him that-), KayBear (DD Kaylee 14), and Kelsi Jo, DD 11.

If it's raining, how about ? QUOTE]


SHHHHHHH. It does NOT rain on Disney Cruises!

I have had a change of plans on our t-shirts. The ones of you that are making your own, are you using a Disney design? I was just wondering if we were limited to what pictures we can use due to copyrights? Any ideas?

Pam

Pam, not sure if anyone replied to this. I certainly do not have any sort of official answer, but this very question was posed on the Creative DISers boards (of which I'm horribly addicted to lurking) recently. Of all the replies, no one was ever questioned, at least at the parks, on their shirts, but rather many CMs complimented them. There have been some very nice DISigners that have been requested to immediately "cease with infringements" by Disney but that appears to be rare.

I say go ahead and design your shirts! Let us know how it goes. That reminds me, I REALLY need to get going on ours! Oh my, the time is closing in on us, isn't it?

 

[kaykels]

Okay, I'm off to Atlantic City for the night with 2 friends. If I hit the big one we'll stay on board for the next cruise and I'm keeping my Dis Friends on the ship too!

 

[cruisindisney]

FINALLY!! Our cruise docs came this morning! I was beginning to worry.

We're telling the kids this next weekend so they can wrap up school stuff before we leave.

Oh please let me be one of your DIS friends!!!!


I know Dan and Katelyn are in 5122, but does he have a DIS name?

I just got to work after being at the annual Sr. Breakfast at the high school. They honor the seniors, pass out awards and scholarships. My daughter is graduating with honors and received 3 scholarships from the local Junior College. She got 1 for $250, 1 for $1000 and the last one is for full tuition!!! She is going into nursing. We are very proud of her. Couldnt ask for a better birthday/Mothers day gift!!

Gotta get to work for a little while. Will check in later.

My Oldest daughter is 11, almost 12. She can't go to the teen lounge for obvious reasons but loves to hook up with friends and roam the ship. I think she has a better time that way. I guess they will meet at the sail away party and perhaps become bffs!

We LOVE the pirate party and dress up . It is one of the highlights of the trip! It is so much fun! Seeing everyone running around like pirates, the entertainment, the food and the fireworks! It is just wonderfull!
