BTW...finally got our passports yesterday and our cruise documents too! Phew!!! Now just to pack, organize everything etc.

Been busy for a few days, thought the boards would slow down as we are all leaving/packing/last minuting, and boom! New people! Welcome, RoyJack. Great to have you along.
I'm getting nervous about my FE gifts not being good enough - you guys are so organized! Mine are not NY specific, not wrapped, and pretty generic. Hope all the kids remember it's the thought that counts (It's the time that was my problem!)
Donald & Daisy - the address to send stuff to the ship is on the first tacky post on the DCL board, near the bottom.
Hope you all have a great last few days (we still have 9), safe & smooth travelling, and we'll see you onboard!! and

Shipped my FE on Monday should arrive on Friday. $9.75 for 11lbs. IMHO well worth not lugging that around. I even had them box it for me for $3.75!
Address is IDS 9001 Marlin St. Cape Canaveral FL 32920

Don't worry about what is given. The kids will be excited for the whole thing. The ages helped but it was hard to find trinkets but fun too.

Jen...we too are leaving on the 16th in the afternoon. It seems so close when you say it. I'm glad I'm not the only person that hasn't started to pack. I have made sure that the kids can wear certain things, and have shopped for the additional things. Having a packing list does help me. I don't know what I'd do without my lists? It even tells me what to do before we lock the door to the house.

LeeAnn....I know how you feel. It would be wonderful to get on the plane with just my purse. I have a friend I work with that went to WDW- MK only for just the day! She caught the first plane of the day out of Baltimore, picked up a car, picked up another friend (whose wife didn't want to go to the park ), went to MK, took the last flight home. I would love to do that!

benseven............I worry about the same thing about the FE gifts. I hope my creativity works out okay. We'll see. It is just fun to get fish mail.

Later......off to teach for the last night for two weeks.

 

[disney4dana]

Somebody want to help me fill out the Bahamian Immigration Arrival Form, please?

Nothing says "We're only here because DCL stops here. I may not get off the boat at all. I'm not a terrorist."



mk

No box for that answer? No terrorist check yes or no?

Dana- I'll be looking for your bracelet on the bus.. so if a strange woman introduces herself as Jennifer.. that's me

I'll put away the mace that day!

BTW...finally got our passports yesterday and our cruise documents too! Phew!!! Now just to pack, organize everything etc.

No documents yet for me hopefully in next day or two. The OCD in me can not handle not having them.

I have layed out everything for myself and the kids. Not sure what DH will wear other than pirate wear I have gotten him. We may have a last minute shopping trip still in the works. I feel like I am forgetting something tho
Then do you believe my in laws~~they planned a family reunion for Saturday! I still have manicure/pedicure and hair appts! Would I be put on the BAD daughter in law list if I cut out early?
We leave for airport evening of the 14th. Flight is at "God awful early time" on the 15th. I arranged to stay at a hotel with free parking while we are gone and free airport shuttle. So I have 2 1/2 days of work left

Roy ~~ sorry it was so difficult. Keep in mind soon you'll be on

[disney4dana]

Just checked fedex site my FE have arrived!! Definitely NOT FAIR

Is anybody taking a nebulizer for breathing treatments?

DS6 has his asthma under control with daily meds (Advair), but uses
Albuterol through the nebulizer for acute trouble. We don't like to travel without it. . . but he hasn't needed it in about two years. . . and I'm thinking how nice it would be not to lug the nebulizer with us as a "just in case" thing. . . But you know that if we go without one, we'll be in the middle of the ocean when DS's asthma kicks into full gear.

So I thought I'd ask if any of you would have one on the ship, just in case? We'd bring our own mask and meds!

Please PM me if you'll have one you wouldn't mind sharing in an emergency!

And I still haven't figured out how to fill out those silly Bahamian Immigration forms. Y'all thought I was kidding, but I really don't know what I'm supposed to put on it!

mk

 

[disney4dana]

Sorry MK~~ can't help you with either problem. We don't use a nebulizer. I can understand not wanting to lug it along for "just in case" Maybe there is another person who uses it regularly who could help out.
As far as the forms, we don't even have our documents yet. So I don't even know what it looks like.

When are you going to be at Kona? I'll meet you there.

Dana

 

[MickeyBeast]

Need to start packing and getting organized this weekend. Starting to feel a little stressed ( I am type A and the rest of the family is too laid back).
We leave bright and early next Thursday.

Did anyone see the AP story onthe monster truck that ran into the crowd? That was my DBil's store and my uncle was the wrecker that pulled it away! Nothing happens in my town~~now this. I hope everyone was OK.

Sorry MK, can't help with the nebulizer either.

I'm a little confused about the forms too- everything below the email address. We're doing the land/sea, so I was just going to ask the DCL desk at the hotel.

Yes, It's been all over the news here. Glad to know you (or your family) weren't spectators when that happened. I heard a lot of children where injured.


Only 3 more days of work! The days are slowing dwindling down. My DH asked me last night 'What am I doing to wear to dinner'? Like I have to plan everything for him.. He wants to wear jeans, even though I know some people say it's ok, I told him I think he'd be more comfortable in khakis b/c jeans are so thick.. plus they would look so much nicer in our pictures... it's that all that matters..

 

[Jen76b]

I need some help on my FE gifts. I have everything except I need 4 items for 12 yr old boys. Will someone PM me to give me a clue on what to get? I can't find anything specific from TX (keychains are $3 or $4 which I think is too much to spend). Any ideas?? Please PM me so we can still keep it a surprise.

Thanks!
Jen

My cruise documents arrived! MK ~~ I felt the same way after trying to figure it out ~ like a dumb...
My TA was ever so helpful! Here goes the answers
Arriving by --other ship
Date of Arrival--leave blank (she's not sure if it castaway or nassau date)
City--Pt Canaveral
Intended stay--0
the rest in section #2 blank
trip purpose--vacation
number of visits--what your number is

Then at port or at cruise desk all you have to fill in is that date.

Several were treated and released. One mother and her young daughter were airlifted to trauma centers. Keep them in your prayers. I think she is 4.

Hello Dana,

When we went last August the check in desk at the terminal told us to put the Nassau day for the date which is the 20th. It may have changed.
