August 16, 2011 – 7 Night Alaska Sailing

[mellers]

Hi, I am looking to either make (I don't really sew) or buy a fish extender. I am going on the Alaska Cruise with my daughter (9). Do you know how to join a group so we can exchange gifts in the fish extenders during the cruise? I think this will be so much fun but it is all new to me. Thanks.

Yes, welcome to our cruise group!

 

[Juldara]

I meant I would wait until you added me to a group to buy the FE. If I'm added, I'm buying it now!!!! Thanks. Let me know what else I need to do and how I find the people in my group? Should I send you my cabin number? Never done this before so all new to me. Thanks for organizing.

 

[Juldara]

Thanks for posting the FE rules. I would like to be added to both groups (Mickey and Pluto). There are two of us. My daughter is 8. Let me know what additional information you need (like room number). Do you email us the lists and cabin numbers or post here? If email, I can send you my email also. Thanks again.

 

[Juldara]

I just wrote my daughter is 8. She will be 9 by the time of the Cruise

 

[Juldara]

Thanks Karen. So happy to be part of it.

The only other thing I need is your cabin number, and I will add you to both lists. Everyone's cabin number should be posted, except one or two, so you should be able to find everyone's FE with no trouble. I will post The Big List in just a minute.

My Stateroom is 2070. Also, do you mind adding (or should I?) no gum for us. Thanks. Julie
P.S. Do you have any thoughts if it is worth upgrading to be on a higher floor (5, 6 or 7)? Not sure if I will do it as but just wanted an experienced Cruisers opinion.

I'm Julie and my daughter is Maya. I'm happy to post on the email with the FE groups but didn't know if you prefer just one person (you ) doing. Let me know. Thanks.

Hi and welcome to the cruise!

I thought I would chime in here. "Worth it" is a very subjective term. I think you made the right choice by getting an ocean view room. For what it's worth, you would have a more comprehensive view from an upper floor. I also noticed that 2070 is right across the hall from the kids clubs, which might be loud, I don't know. I have only ever sailed on upper floors, so I do have some bias for the areas I have enjoyed.

Regardless of which room you sail in, you are going to have a wonderful trip!

You're on the list, and I've added the "no chewy stuff" constraint. It's fine to post a reply to any message on the list, but what I try to do is, as soon as I see it, to add the new information to "The Big List" so it doesn't get lost, or I miss it when it's close to cruise time. Welcome aboard!

Thanks for letting me know. I don't want to be near the kids clubs. I'm going to see if I can change it. If not, it will be fine.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Julie and my daughter is Maya. We are staying in room 2090 (switch from our other room). Look forward to the Cruise.

 

[Juldara]

Thanks for letting me know. I don't want to be near the kids clubs. I'm going to see if I can change it. If not, it will be fine.

As of now they moved me further down the hall to 2090. Thanks for the tip. I'm going to see if I can move up a couple of floors. Can't wait. Julie

 

[Juldara]

I moved to room 2090. Thanks for all your help with this. Can't wait to meet everyone.
Julie

[Mrs. Gumdrop]

I have developed a new obcession. Disney Vinylmations!

In order to keep myself from going broke on these little babies, I have decided to start trading.

I am going to aquire one VM to trade, and then keep trading it to see how many different VMs I can get my hands on, one at a time! I am going to kick this practice off on our Alaska cruise. So if you are interested in trading, let me know!

And if you see me in Mickey's Mates trading, say Hi!

Burnaby is not far outside of Vancouver:

We're not as big on Vinylmation, but my daughter (thanks to her cousin's gift from Tokyo) is in love with Duffy and Shellie May. Any others with bear obsessions?
