April 30, 2012: 4 night on the Magic!

[momx2in2005]

I have a few questions, if pertaining to you could you specify....thank you so much.

Turlepondkid- Kristen and Dave - could you add names, age and gender of your kids please. I see that they are w/ their grandparents, but still need the info for FE.

Emtmom0104 - Is Dylan a boy or girl (a friend of mine has a daughter named Dylan, so I thought i'd ask you) and is Jayden a boy or girl.....thank you.


ALSO...regarding my own (momx2in2005)... my daughter, Adysen will be 5 yrs old a few days after the cruise. And Ayden is my son (7), in case anyone needed to know boy or girl.

I guess I over looked the "who's your favorite character" response....but if anyone still needs or wants the info, here you go.

Adysen (5) Ariel
Adysen (7) Wall E

Kimberly - Rapunzel
Ivan - No favorite

My main gift is done, or rather in the production stage, but Dave, as long as something is on the FE hook, shall get something from me.

momx2in2005.... I wish you had given me the characters yesterday!!!! I moved out of the design phase yesterday!! The item will still be done, just not personalized.

Well, today is my last day here at work - I'm leaving at 2pm and we're starting the long drive down to Florida

I'll try to check in on the thread between now and Monday (love having Wifi on my new phone!) but I can't make any changes to the Google FE document - what's there is the final version.

Can't wait to see everyone on board! WDW/DCL here I come !!

Turtlepondkids' kids are Sabrina 11 and Noah 10.

See everyone soon!

Hi - I wish I was going on this cruise - but I am not

But some good friends of ours are - and if you happen to see them, please give them a shout out!

They might be easy to spot - it's their son's Make a Wish trip. He has a blue Make a Wish T-Shirt - but I doubt he will be wearing it everyday . He's 11 and will have a brace on his left leg. They are a family of five.

Have a great trip everyone!

 

[momx2in2005]

woo hoo....we leave in 24 hours!!!!!

 

[turtlepondkid]

Could this day BE ANY LONGER?!?!!?! sooo EXCITED! packed and ready to go....watching the DCL promotional video and squealing in a pile of anticipation on the couch!!!!!!

Can't wait!!!!

Cheched in at the Animal kingdom lodge villa. Renting DVC points worked very well for us. Dinner tonight is at Ohana. Can't wait to board the ship tomorrow… and love that disney deluxe hotels have free WIFI.

Hi! I was reading the cruise before you had some illness. What did you guys experience? Did it seem more people then normal were sick? We are headed out on the May 18th cruise and just trying to prepare! Thanks!

 

[wmharley]

We are sad to be back. Our little one asked where we were going this morning at 7am and we said home. He cried and cried.

Then at breakfast he askeed for us to take him to the Club, and started to cry again.

It was fun. the kids enjoyed getting the FE gifts although the wife and I in our cabin and my brother/sister in law in the other cabin were friendly upset my mom got the tote FE and not us!!! lol

I hope some of you (4 cabins) woke up to a bunch of items at your door this morning (friday). They were the ones without FEs on the doors when we went through. I know my mom talked with one couple (the engaged ones with the quickly made FE) so they shoudl be safe. SuziQ and Aimbo and Pixiedust and Eyore were the others I think.

The Thompson's had a great time!!! Thank you to everyone who brought all the FE gifts! Our kids loved coming back to the room everyday to find a little surprise gift! Hope everyone has safe travels. We are headed home now...only 450 more miles and loaded down with lots of dirty laundry!!!

We didn't have sickness in our family, but there were several children sick on Tuesday. One threw up in the children's pool and another got out of the pool and threw up in front of me. The parents of the first child continued to let him swim, so I reported it to the activities director, only after taking our three out of the pool. They roped off the pool, drained it and cleaned up real well. Everyone we got close to a restaurant, they were handing out antibacterial wipes. SO glad I didn't read this before our cruise or I would have worried!!! I think anytime you have recirculated air, you run the risk, but it was great and no problems for our family. The ship was VERY clean!!!!

That must have happened after noon. We were in the pool prior to noon that day. I dd see the after effects in the Atrium when we waited for some characters to show up. One mother after us, had a hyper kid that was running around, getting in front of people taking pics at the mickey statue in front of lumieres and throwing himself on the floor were the "lunch" was deposited. I told her, she said thanks, then left the kid to keep doing it. eww.

Now Iknow Thursday the adult pool was drained in the afternoon. I guess some adult also couldn't hold it.

drive safe. We managed our laundry yesterday..

Our kids though really miss the boat so today I took them to the community pool, or as we call it, Deck 9. Home is Deck 6, and the bathtub, is the Goofy hottubs.

The wife missed the soft serve icecream. We are going to dress up and create a menu for dinner tomorrow at Lumiere's (dining room). Today tey ate in Parrot Cay (living room).

Man we miss that boat.

We were on this voyage and experienced sickness after leaving Castaway Cay on Wednesday. We thought that we may have eaten something bad on shore.
