Anyone going on the Wonder Oct 14, 2010?

[aan1701]

Sounds like everyone has nice plans. I personaly will not even concider going to MNSSH for two reasons. The first: I think it is way to expensive. Since I already have my Premier Pass we just can't justify the cost of this short 5 extra hours in the park especially since when we get back form the B2B we can do the MK till 2 in the morning in the Sat the 23rd. The special Fireworks and parade are not worth 50+ bucks in our opinion. Second I really do not like Halloween. I have never liked dressing up and being something I am not. It is probably my second least favorite holiday. So we will just enjoy the F&W and do some shopping with a CM friend of mine that works at DCL in celebration.

We just booked this cruise!

We will be attending MNSSHP on the 17th too. We are annual pass holders and agree the price is a bit stiff, but we will be meeting up with friends there and are sure to have a great time! I doubt we will dress up since we do not have children... but maybe we will.

Welcome aboard! We love MNSSHP and we are AP as well! Cant wait to go!

MNSSHP=Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party!

Ahhhh, of course! Thanks!!

I'm not sure what time frame we have for this cruise yet, but sounds like it would be fun to look into. Here in Cali I read that they are bringing the show out here this year for the first time, so may try it closer to home too.

We're really looking forward to a short cruise for the first time though & then a few days at DGC when we get back.

 

[Disneyfun1]

We are flying in saturday before the cruise and going to the party on tuesday night. then after the cruise, we go back to wdw for a day and fly home on monday.

Lisa, Thanks for the updated FE list!

Sharon, I see that you're doing FE gifting for both weeks on your B2B. So am I. Now I have a dilemma. I can't hand out the same thing to you both weeks.....hahaha......so I'll have to be creative and specialize your FE gifts. It's a good problem to have, IMHO (in my humble opinion).

Well Deb, I'm not the creative type at all so I might be in real trouble. Of course if that's the least of my worries, our trip should be fantastic.

Hi! We will be on this cruise too and it's our first. We are excited and we have a lot of first timer questions, so forgive me. Going on this cruise is my 2 year old granddaughter, my daughter and son and of course me. My son turns 30 on the cruise and I want to show him a good time. Any ideas on decorating the stateroom?
Also, I see there is an optional dress night. I read pros and cons. Is this for adults only?
Any tips you can give a first timer trying to show her family a good time let me know.
I hope to meet all of you. I have read about fish extenders, that sounds fun. What do I need to do?
Thanks
Susy

I'm sure lots of people will answer and we all had questions our first cruise so ask away and we will try to be helpful.

On the disneycruise site you will find decorating party themes for your stateroom. Some people make door magnets and decorate their doors. Many people like to customize their gifts and choose http://www.theperfectgift.cc/

Everyone can dress up if they choose to do so. Not everyone will want to participate. I would have to say that just being onboard is special and that the entire cruise is a good time. So just enjoy yourself. You will get a pamphelt called the Navigator slipped under your door each night while you're out to dinner. When you return you can review it for the following day's activities and see what you want to do. Many people bring highlighters. You always have more to do than you will have time for. Also, DCL has special celebration packages available on it's website. You should look over them and see if any interest you.

You can make fish extenders or buy them on ebay. LisaG520 is organizing a FE list. Request to be added to the list and give her your information.....names of adults and kids in stateroom, kids ages, stateroom number. Then you put your fish extender outside of your door and DISers will secretly deposit gifts while you're not looking. At the same time, you follow the list of participants and give your gift to each one on the list. You can gift per cabin or per person or per child depending on your gift. Some people make gifts, some go to the dollar store, etc. It should not be expensive.

I hope that helps a little Susy. I'm sure you will think of more things as you go along. Please ask. We are happy to help.
