Hi Jen,
Good luck with the speech! I'm sure you'll do great!

Quick question... Just tried the site. Did the password change? I tried logging in and the original password is not working...

I will send you a PM with the website information.

I guess that lots of us will be bumping into one another at the port , as many families plan to arrive about 10.30 !!!!
I plan to wear my tshirt with our cruise logo on it !!!!!!
Maybe we could also think of a mini DIS meet for those who are staying at a WDW resort before the cruise ???
We could meet at a park / ride an attraction together ? or plan a meal ( counter service ?) or just a drink or snack (for the kids) ????

Other thoughts / opinions ???? laura

We will be at WDW pre-cruise so planning something along these lines would be great!

Alright...a modified version of the website is back up. You can check it out here:

http://web.me.com/jenbanderson/DreamCruise/Welcome.html

You will need a user name and password - send me a PM and I will send it to you.

Harry - I create the website using iWeb and host it on my .mac account. This makes it difficult to have someone else help with updating it. What I could use some help with is helping when new people join in or there is something posted that I should add to the site. I have been so busy that sometimes I miss what is posted. If you wanted to help by sending me an e-mail or PM if there is important information posted here, that would really help.

Would love to help out! If Laura adds info to her newbie guide - we can have new folks or "old" folks (<LOL>) send requests and updates to me via PM and then I a can compile and get those over to you in some organized fashion. That should make your life easier! Does that work?

I can try to put together a t-shirt using our cruise logo tonight. And I'll also update the CC5K shirt to include the dates of our cruise. So stay tuned. . . .

Can't wait to see a t-shirt with our cruise logo design. Thanks for putting it together.

Cute shirts, I'll have to get one.
For those of you doing Disney before the cruise I just booked a rental car from Enterprise for the morning of the cruise for only $ 39.00. Way cheaper than the bus! And they will come pick us up at the Beach Club. Now if only they would run another room deal, I didn't know we would be able to go a week early so I only booked 2 nights the last time they had the discounts.

Just wanted to reintroduce the idea of meeting for dinner the night before the cruise for those staying in Port Canaveral?

I just tried to grab the logo from BigDogHU75's post (linked in Laura's post above), but it looks like the graphic has been replaced by a box - all I see is a white box with a red "x" in it. What am I doing wrong?

Can someone send me the graphic so I can try to make a t-shirt with it?

Thanks.

 

[mrebuck]

Nevermind - found the high resolution graphic on the website Jen created. Thanks Jen!

By the way, the website looks great. Well done!

I just got an email for 35% off "selected rooms" for APs 6/3-8/13... that might help you (or let you know gen'l discounts may be forthcoming!)

Thanks, too bad I'm not an AP holder any more (expired on NYE) I hope they hurry up and release another room discount. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Hi Everyone,
it seems that there are a few interested disers for our meets and cabin tour.
If the moderators don't mind, then I have a couple suggestions.

Our first meet and greet at the Port should be at some location where we can group and find each other after we have checked in and while we are waiting to board. There will be thousands of other cruisers , so if anyone has an idea for the best spot we can meander to that will be great.

Also once on board we could have the another meet and greet for those who missed the port socializing. I know that deck 11 or 12 was suggested, but seeing that the pools and aquaduck and Cabanas restaurant are in those locations, it may be a bit difficult to pick out our disers.
Helen how about on deck 13, in the family zone to the left of Currents Bar at 2 - 2.30pm?

I was then thinking of helping to organise the cabin tour.
Maybe we could leave the meet n greet to start the tour at 2.30p - 3.30p while the cabins are still "new".Then we can join our families for our mandatory 4pm lifeboat drill.

Kristen and Jen I send you a pm.

Was that a special day for the car rental? Are you just picking it up that morning and then dropping it off at the port?

 

[sdchickie]

Just picking it up at Disney and dropping it off at the port. Cheap transportation. The other rental places wanted around $90 for the few hours that it would take to drive over. I'm guessing that it would be $39 a day to rent for the length of your stay.

I understand now. - btw on my iPad right now



My DH is a deputy chief of our volunteer department. Really proud of what he does.

Proud to sy the least! I can't believe there is still places in which the firefighting career still volunteer! But I think that my DH will still do it without pay, he loves his job!!! Im sure they are going to have lots to share, it's great!

 

[Princess Runner]

Hi, Glad to see you again. Send me your info. for the FE when you get a chance.. Thanks, a bunch!!

Did you get my pm with the info for the fe>?

 

[Mjasp]

Just wanted to reintroduce the idea of meeting for dinner the night before the cruise for those staying in Port Canaveral?

Is there a place large enough for all of us?

NYC has paid firefighters but all of Long Island has all volunteer firefighters.
