Hi Beth & Harry,

I found part 4 too...Thanks, for starting Part # 4 Harry!!

 

[Pudo]

Hmmm. Let's keep this chain going.

Hey Harry, Beth, Kristin I found this thread too!

Here here as well!

Brenda: I got an email back from Bahamas Segway. I had mentioned I knew another party on our ship who was booked on the 9:30AM tour:
"In that case, we current have 7 Segways available for the 9:30 tour. It's best to book through our website." Apparently your presence on the tour swayed them! I guess they'll just have to wait for all of us. Just have to confirm (again) with the rest of the party, and then hopefully we'll be waiting with you bright and early Friday morning.

We are almost done with our FE gifts! About 90% of the way there... next step will be packing lists/piles (and making sure there aren't any more quick trips to the store needed next weekend)! I'm so jealous of all of you who are leaving so soon. 2 weeks from today, we'll be lounging at Vero!

Hi Everyone!

Thanks for making the new thread Harry.

Back from the weekend with my girlfriends and spent most the afternoon napping as I did not really sleep much on Saturday night. Tonight will be a quiet night and I will be going to bed early!

 

[hmansure]

Welcome to part 4 - you guys are quick!

 

[sdchickie]

Woo hoo! still on page one!!! I just posted some pictures of my new bathroom on the old thread.

 

[sherreis]

Thanks for the link to our new thread! Serving dinner and then need to get to work on more FE gifts. I always procrastinate too long --thinking this won't take too long.


Busy week ahead. DS11 starts football practice tomorrow night and that is every evening from Monday through Thursday. DS15 is getting his braces off on Wednesday and he is ...and that is with being on his ADHD meds! 9 more days of work!!!!

 

[mrebuck]

Our FE gifts are finished, packed and ready to send to the ship! I can't wait to share them with everyone. They took four times as long as we expected, but we are very happy with how they turned out!

See everyone soon!

 

[DisneyWhirled]

I found it, too!!!

Busy time leading up to the cruise. Soccer practice, doctor appt, DD's two birthday parties, mani's, pedi's and phew, we will be there!!

For those of you who think packing stinks, I'd rather pack "for" the trip then unpack "from" the trip!

I went to check port canaveral web cam today, hoping to see the Dream, but she wasn't there!! I hadn't realized that she will be in port tomorrow. And I'll be at work....bummer!

 

[BigDogHU75]

Yeah! I found thread 4. I am still posting on the old one too.

Below are tips related to fish extenders & magnets.

1. Personalize your fish extender so there will be less chance for it to “float away.”

2. Secure your fish extender with a cable tie to the fish outside your stateroom door.

3. Put labels on the back saying "Belongs to the XXXX Family"

4. Visit the creative DISigns board or cruise magnets thread to request magnet designs.

5. Use magnets to help identify your door.

6. Personalize your magnets so they will not “float away.”

7. Put labels on the back saying "Stolen from the XXXX Family" or “This magnet belongs to room # xxxx.”

8. Magnets that have name and room number on them are less likely to disappear.

 

[Woobie]

Wow! Page 2 already.

What would be the latest date you'd feel comfortable sending a box to the ship ahead of time? I want to do this, but my FEs are not ready to send.

Hello everyone

Just wanted to say I found you too, but by accident. I'll have to go back to read the last pages of Part 3 to see if I missed anything last night/this morning. I am close to finishing my FE gifts too. Still need to figure out how best to package them together by room, thought I had a plan but it will take up a lot more packing/shipping space. I had a great sized box saved and I think DH threw it away although he's claiming amnesia as I'm asking him about it now.

HI EVERYONE!!

 

[elgerber]

Hi everyone, found you! I have been so dang busy I haven't even turned my computer on today. I think my FE is done now, pretty lame, but done LOL. Can we ship a box if it has candy in it? It isn't chocolate so it won't melt.
Did anyone answer if there is an embarkation meet scheduled?
I am in total panic mode!
