Try TransGates. They have reasonable rates.

I can't believe we have just 2 weeks left then it's cruise time. 1 more week at work then 2 full weeks of vacation. I prepaid my gratuties last night one more thing off my todo list. Now today after work I will go shopping again and buy Jesse some dress pants.

OK, we were talking on the FE group on Facebook about the advantages of having a group page on there vs. just using the DIS boards and Wendy talked me into starting one for our group. I have uploaded the cabin numbers for the FE groups, location cards, a photo from the Magic when she got into port in Galveston and some Cruise Tips and put our meet in an event on there. I did make it a closed group - we can open it up, but I don't like having people with other motives posting ads etc. on a group page, so I kept it closed. You can friend me on Facebook and ask me to add you to the group - or if everyone wants to open it up then anyone can post.

I know it is close to sailing time, but I figured better slow than not at all! Hope you will join us!

Great idea on the FB page. I just asked to join.

I have set up a swap with another Girl Scout on the cruise. My daughter can't wait to meet her! Are there any other Girl Scouts that might want to meet each other and have a swap trade? For those that aren't Girl Scouts, swaps are "special whatchmacallits affectionally pinned somewhere."

We make cute little trinkets that we trade with each other. It's as if everyone in the FE group met at once and traded our gifts with each other. Girl scouts turned 100 years this year and we will probably make something with that theme.


Only 1 weekend left....

Awesome thanks! Is there a way you can add the rest of my family who is also cruising? Or do they just have to request an add? They aren't on the DISboards but they use FB a lot. I requested to e added

Once you are a member, I think you can add other members.

I just have to LOL the statement "and Wendy talked me into starting one for our group." No arm twisting was involved.

I like that it is closed to members only. There are plenty of open groups to join for other Disney discussion.

Lol - well, it was a good idea Wendy, I just wouldn't have thought about it if you hadn't suggested it. It has been easy to add people to the group, so all they have to do is request to join or have someone in the group add them. Also, please feel free to add photos, documents or anything else.

So. we have a cabin assignment!
I am delighted!

Roadmans are in 7540

They are usually pinned on with safety pins. Go on Pinterest and search for Girl Scout swap. You will see tons of ideas. I always put our troop# and date on ours. When we did the Girl Scouts 100 birthday at Epcot, we printed Minnie Mouse in a GS uniform, added beads and it was done. I'm thinking that when we meet other Fe members on the first day, that might be a good time to trade them. Or, if we miss the meet and greet, we can put them in the FE pockets.

If you are interested, PM me and I'll make a list!
