mizzkellzee...

I'm sorry I dropped the event on FB...I didn't realize that you'd set up the FB post as an Event. I'm a little more paranoid about sharing information that includes dates and such especially since it is a public post.

Sorry.

I was wonder what everyone has plans for.
We are booked to do the 9:00 sting ray encounter day one on CC and have a cabana for day two on cc.
In the Bahama's we plan on just doing a little walking around with a stop at Turtuga rum factory and some liquor store of coarse the straw market.
I really want to do the mixology tasting and maybe the martini or champagne tasting. What about everyone else.
Most of all for my DD I need to visit with Mickey and the gang as much as posible!!
Number thing I need is time to relax and watch the ocean!!!

Hi Michelle we are going to do the aqua adventure at nassau and on the 2nd day at CC we are doing the jet ski's, we dont have any other excursions planned yet but may well hire bicycles or something.
on board the ship we just want to do as much as possible, definately be at the meet and greet 3pm, may visit the RF, will watch the shows and definately doing the MSD. not sure about visiting the clubs or lounges, my DD will be though. oh and DS said 'we are getting room service mum'.

sounds like you have lots of fun planned, are you all well now and looking forward to your cruise. i know we all are, we are so excited we aren't even getting a full night sleep and are constantly surfing the net looking for tips and reviews.
speak soon sarah

My plan so far is...
Day 1 - Meeting everyone at the M&G, sail away party, checking out any M&Gs for 18-21 year olds, and checking out the nightclubs that night (which I'll actually be doing every night lol!)
Day 2 - Snorkling with the Stingrays from 9am to 10am, after that I'm going around the island to take photos and explore (I'm actually a photographer so I'm hoping to get some really good shots!), then getting back on the ship and relaxing and tanning in the adult only section !, and in the evening going to the nightclubs
Day 3 - I'm actually going on a cruise in February with my Mum, Dad, my best friend, and her parents where we actually stop in at Nassau so I figured I'll just stay on the ship (since I don't want to go off the ship alone anyways) and relax and tan since I'll be checking out Nassau in February and I've already seen this port before also , and again nightclubs in the evening!
Day 4 - Getting up early and just relaxing and tanning in the adult only section of the cruise for the whole day, and again nightclubs in the evening!
Day 5 - Getting up early and heading over to the adult only section of CC for the entire day !, and again nightclubs in the evening!
Day 6 - ... that's all I have to say about day 6... lol!

In between I plan on exploring the ship and DEFINITELY getting photos with ALL the characters and such but that's my basic plan I can't wait... mainly just relaxing and tanning (so I can come back to Canada and all my friends will be super jealous that I not only went on a Disney cruise but that I'm super tanned as well lol!!!)

No that's not a problem at all!!! I just made the group for everyone to connect if they wanted to that's all !!

Oh yes I'll also be going to all the shows every night, I have the late seating for dinner so I'm going to the early shows (around 6pm I believe) every night !!

I'm also constantly surfing the net looking for everything (mainly checking for my stateroom number !!!!!!) but I'm currently in the process of making my FE gifts , I actually changed my mind and I'm doing a small gift every day for everyone !!

We have started packing today! We leave on Saturday, so I thought it was about time I did.
We checked our FE gifts, so we have ALL of them (we are doing FE on both our cruises) and finishing the final touches to it. It seems they take up more than half of one suitcase!

Hahaha yeah I had to keep that in mind so that's why my gifts are easy to pack (so many other amazing ideas I came up with but couldn't do for that reason lol!!)

Maybe we should both call to get our reservations linked so you;re not dining alone!

You know, you can link your reservations yourself? It's easy ... online!

oh my goodness Karin, you are so lucky and you have a whole month of vacation. we haven't even sailed yet and we are already looking at next year and trying to tempt my mum, trouble is, she likes to explore so maybe the 7 night western cruise, france, italy would be better for her.

our FE gifts are ready and i must say we have enjoyed making them so hope everybody enjoys receiving them.

i am a little worried about dining as my DD and DS are such fussy eaters, but everyone keeps telling me to just ask for what they want, as Disney are accomodating.
apart from that we are looking forward to it.

I did actually ask to be seated with people (also preferably around my age) so that is my account but yes that would be amazing!! Incase they screw up and I'm sitting with children (not that I don't like children don't get me wrong but for dinner I would just like to be sitting with adults haha)!!

Sarah, our vacation for 2013 is all booked and I am already looking into 2014. How's that for obsessive planning.
If you consider a 7 night Caribbean next summer - may I suggest the ones on August 10 and 17? Would love to sail with you again.

Don't worry about your kids at dinner. The servers are so good at keeping them entertained. They are amazing.
Don't forget to order a Mickey bar for dessert! (They aren't on the menu, just ask for them. )

Sounds awesome, we could even all link our reservations together!! On past cruises I always find it fun to sit with a bunch of people rather then just a few!! Let me know if you guys want to do that !

Oh my goodness are these bars only for kids?!?! I really hope not are they the ice cream bars in the shape of Mickey? I totally want one Hahahaha! Ps I apologize if anyone does meet me, I'll probably act like more of a child (with how excited I get) then any of your children combined

Yes, they are THE Mickey Bars, the ones you get in the park. And they can be ordered by anyone! So ....... GO FOR THEM, girl!
And why not acting like a child? If you can't do it at Disney, where can you?

OK, I'm intrigued. Where/how can you link dining online?

oh thank you, thats so sweet Karin, i read your post out to Tianne, she said ' she hasn't met us yet, that may change' lol.
i keep reading that it's good to book onboard as you get discount, we will prob make a dummy res for now and finalise when we know what flights are available, we have to book them separately! we can't sail on august 17th though as my daughter kiara is 21 on that date in 2013, hang on a minute what a fantastic birthday present!!!
Jacob has his eye on the mickey bars already

We're a party of 3, you'd be 4. Sarah, how many are in your party? If we're under 10 we should be able to link reservations for 1 table.

They're a party of 3 this works!! I'm okay with it of all of you are !

Easy!
Open your reservation online.
Go to Cruise activities.
Once that page opens the last tab is "Link your reservation".
Just follow that and that's it.
I guess all you need is the other ones reservation number and birth date of the lead passenger.
Haven't done it in a while but I think that's it.
