April 29, 2012 ~ Aloha! ~ Inagural Wonder to Hawaii-Part 4

[chip&dale&fun]

Just to make this absolutely clear, I am not proposing to organize the PJ breakfast. I am sure that this can be a lot of fun, but it is not my thing. I was planning to get a venue for an hour one afternoon for the Mascot Meet and Greet. If people want a PJ breakfast, then I am afraid somebody needs to come forward to take ownership of this. I am more than happy to help get the word out and to add it to the Navigator, but that will be the extend of my involvement in this particular project.

Corinna

Thank you for agreeing to get a mascot meet organized.........

There's more happiness in giving than receiving right? So I think I'll just take the kids and find random FEs and drop in a little gift. I think my kids will love it!

I also have an extra FE gift. If you want to PM me your room number as well, I'd be happy to help.

Hi, my parents are going on this cruise and I have been reading along every so often to see what is happening. I am trying to put together a packet for them so they know what is going on ahead of time. I believe I read on here that Formal night is Day 2, Semi Formal Day 12 and 14 and Pirate Day 13? Is this correct? If not can some one tell me the days? Thanks for your help. And I will fully admit to how jealous I am of everyone on this cruise. I so wish I was going.

I have friends who are going, and they have been harping on pirate day forever! lol

@DisneyManFamily4 - Hang up your FE, I have extras as well. I'm only in 2 groups and most of the people are duplicates in my second group, so I'm delivering to a bunch of additional cabins that aren't in either of my group.

I am kicking myself right now! and about ready to burst into tears.
First off, Hi again everyone. It's been a really long time since I've logged on and kept up with all the DISers. I've been working and going to school 7-9pm weekdays, not to mention spending time with the family on weekends. Anyway, I shouldn't complain, I've got a job now and I'm REALLY looking forward to our cruise.
Anyway, I would just jump on and check the spreadsheet periodically and I never noticed any changes. This week is my spring break and I was getting ready to do the FE gifts. I log on and start reading, backtracking all the posts and I get to all the posts with all the activities closing. So I'm off the FE gift exchange. I just responded to a couple of PMs but I wouldn't blame them for saying it's too late. It's all my fault. I should've known something was wrong when the spreadsheet wasn't showing any updates. I should've just popped in and asked.
Sorry to lay that all on you, I just don't know how I'm going to break it to the family. I really dropped the ball on this one.

I have shipped the Fish Extender gifts to California today, but I have some spares in every category and for one or two families, they will just fit in my purse. So if you let me know your stateroom number, I will add you to my list.

GOOD Morning, Happy Cruisers

My precruise crafting is almost done. WHAT am I going to fill my time with for the next two weeks?



I have an extra - pm your room number. How old are your kids?

I love to deliver fe gifts - I did three rounds on our 7 day cruise, but they weighed less and there were FAR fewer of them

Happy day, all!

I hear you. All my gifts are done, have been sorted and shipped to our friends in California. I could not believe it, but I shipped 10 Pounds worth. I am glad that I have decided to ship them as this would have made a big dent in my baggage allowance. I feel strangely bereft now. I still have the kits for the jewellery workshops to do and make a gift for my Secret Mickey, but then I am officially done.

I too got on the list too late and have gifts available...anyone else in this fix please send your room # and I will deliver! Anyone with extras...I'm in 5137!

Who is in your family/ party and if there are any kids, what are the ages? I am doing individual gifts so need to know this information. Again, I have enough spares to cover your family.

Those are the dates we last heard, but......all is subject to change. They really just need to know that there will be 1 (or maybe 2) formal nights, 2 (or maybe 1) semi formal nights, and a pirate night. We are fairly certain that the first formal will be day 2....

We are just two big kids, Rick and Elaine. Thanks for all the great replies.

Hello All:

I remember Padalyn (Cayla) posting that she got bumped out of her handicapped accessible room (7636) because they didn't require it and was now in stateroom 8560, right??

I'm trying to confirm because ThreeBrits' FE lists still show her in 7636 and she's in every FE group.

Can someone confirm?

Thanks!
Stephanie

Wish I had someone to ship mine TO. I'm thinking I'll just ship an extra suitcase and pay for it.

For those who have sent me messages asking if I changed the "minnie" Dis meet at the Doubletree, the answer is no. This meet is in addition to not instead of the one at the Doubletree on the 28th at 8 pm in the lobby area near the bar. Do both. Let the parties begin.

Folks, As she says - this is a SEPERATE MEET - these two venues are miles apart and most of the folks at Disneyland won't have a car to drive over to the Doubletree, hence, a second meetup.


DIsneyland Pre-Cruise Meet


7:30 - 8:30 pm Saturday April 28 by the fireplace in the Grand Californian Lobby -

To attend: please pm your cell phone number nlt Saturday 4/28 at 6 am with DL Meet in the subject line and I will then give you mine - I don't want to just post it on the public forum. If the timing doesn't work for those who sign up, we will come to a new agreement.
ed to say . This time and location will likely stand, but please pm anyway, just in case there is a last minute change.

I updated my assorted spreadsheets as soon as she posted and I have her as 8560. I even remember that she chatted with Amyreneemt saying that they are now neighbours and they are in 8562.

I considered this, but I checked a second suitcase in October and

A) I have to take all my baggage to work as I am heading straight from work to the airport on April 25th and I commute by train. I think I just about can cope with one suitcase and a carry on, but not with a second suitcase.

B) It was quite cramped with the extra suitcase in an inside cabin. I am pretty sure I have to bite the bullet and check a second bag coming back, but I am sure they will sell me a nice bag either on the ship or at Disneyland.

Good POint! Although we stuff the cases under the bed, I had a giant one once that wouldn't fit. The room host took it away to store elsewhere.
