Just searched and found a photo! Oh boy...now I have to find one for Ben. The boy would totally go for this.

I'll try to get Steve to take a picture of them tomorrow! In the meantime, back to the "drink of the day" idea as necessary pay back for all of Kristin's FE efforts ....

I can't remember what drink they were serving for the Sail Away last week, but it sure was yummy!

I will be happy to do more work on the FE if it means more drinks of the day for me....LOL!!

Thanks for taking the time to report back Beth!

We have cabana #19 book...and I'm trying to convince DH that it is worth it! How much total time would you say you spent in the cabana?

Thanks!

And here is the view on May 21st from Cabana 19 on Serenity Bay! Get ready everyone for some awesome blue Bahamian water!!!!

Skye and Hope are seven too! Before last October's cruise they emailed (mommy did the typing) Pudo's youngest daughter a couple of times before the cruise. It was a fun way to meet a child their own age pre-cruise -- they talked about sports, favorite princesses, that type of stuff, plus sent some photos so they would recognize each other on the ship. And it ended up that the parents all became friends which was an added plus. So if that appeals and your daughter wants to do the same with my twins, send me a PM and I'll get that started with them!

Keira would love that! I will send you a PM

Great picture Beth!!

Got anymore from the cruise to share with us??

I told Hanna and Hope today about emailing Skye and Hope they were excited if it meant they could get their own email accounts!!

Jen, we're getting them signed. Look halfway down the page and you can see what they look like..... http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2730184&highlight=vinylmation
They're cute and they aren't selling the blank ones anymore so they are getting hard to find. Also, you can't get them signed in the parks anymore probably because the costumed characters have a hard time holding them with their big fuzzy hands so you can only get them signed on the ships.

Yes -- the ones my twins have look just like that! I was surprised to see them being sold on the ship -- they were tucked away in a corner and they only had a few 9 inch ones left. Also as an FYI, the 3 inch ones work great too -- you just can't get as many character signatures on them.

Check your email again!! I resent the list. I had someone on both lists..The person is staying in group two!!

I promise group one I will not email you again tonight...lol!!

I think this has been me all day today!!

I hope they still give us signatures all over it, I've heard that they are getting stingy with the signatures. Some people have reported only getting like 3 or 4 signatures on their stuff.

We were able to purchase them at HS in April!! But we had to pay full price!!

I read the trick to getting more signatures was to include candy for the CMs... I mean characters

 

[jenanderson]

Let me know if you find any!!

I found the photo and totally love them. I am going to be trying to hunt down one for Ben. He will totally freak out if we can figure it out!!!!

BTW....just booked the hotel...we will be at the Residence Inn with you!!!

Just be really clear on the card you fill out with Guest Services (or the concierge hosts will handle it if you are in that category) that you want as many signatures as possible. I had the vinylmations in a ziploc bag with the multi-colored sharpies and also some hard candy, I think. The vinylmations we brought back last week were covered with signatures!!!

 

[sdchickie]

Just call the store I did, I just ordered mine a couple of hours ago.

Keira would love that! I will send you a PM

If Keira wants to email my girls as well she is welcomed too!!

Thanks so much for the advice. I will be sure to make a note about the signatures, have plenty of colored sharpies and include some candy.
