December 20 2009 3 night Wonder

[NatdelPozo]

Good news!! Looks like booking early is definitely the way to go We got our room assignments and we've been upgraded from Cat. 12 to Cat. 9 with a porthole.

We'll be in room 2510, which, from the reviews sounds like a nice, quiet room.

Can't wait to meet all you guys!

BEYOND EXCITED!!

Hi, Everyone,

We just got our Cabin Number. I guess we are really going. :

2026 mcl Katie & DDilara (13)

I signed Dilara up for "the Wild Side." I do hope she makes friends and has a good time. Meanwhile, DOM (dear old mom) will choose something a little less "active," possibly a manicure.

Still undecided about an excursion in Nassau. We've done "dolphin swims" and are looking for something different. Any suggestions?

Katie and Dilara

This may be the final F/E list. We have cabins for nearly all of the participating groups. We will continue to monitor the thread and keep everyone apprised of changes, but for those that are starting to travel in the next few days, this should be a real good start.

Here’s a printable image of the current F/E Ship’s Map for the 12/20/2009 sailing of the Disney Wonder. The cabins participating are highlighted in “DIS Green”. In this scale it’s a little hard to read the cabin numbers, but with the included cabin list, this should give you a real good idea where everyone is located as your walking around the ship. We can also email you the original Word Document that this image was created from if you want to PM us an email address. If someone would like to volunteer to print copies to bring and hand out at the DIS-Meet, just let us know.

If we receive additional changes for cabin assignments we’ll update the image and repost.

Just in case anyone's interested.... I happened to be in Macy's today doing some Christmas shopping. They've got a Mickey Sailor stuffed animal (aka: plush) with a travel alarm clock for $15!! The Mickey talks, too. I can't remember what it says, because I'm hiding it in the trunk of my car! But I think he says Merry Christmas. Just wanted to share! Way too excited! Almost can't contain ourselves

Hi Charleyann,

How funny is this - we were assigned room 2652, which I think is right across the hall from you!

Our category 12 was upgraded to a category 9, which looked GREAT until I read your review about the noises. Actually, I was fairly happy that we were not around a lot of other rooms due to our youngest son's special needs, and the possibility that he has a 'meltdown' and we have to stay in the stateroom with him until he calms down (which can take an hour or more at times).

Mom & Dad (Mike and Susan Canty) were assigned room 7009 - just about as far away from our room as possible! I think they may be secretly happy about that.

Funny how we both have special needs children and were placed over the engines and as far back as possible!!!!

It is great though to have a fellow diser beside us. You got a window at least!!!!

Have a great cruise!!!

PS....I work with autistic kids!

My parents have their stateroom number. Its 6313. Sorry it took so long they have been out of town.

Thanks for the update! That may be the last cabin number we need.

I see that they got one of the forward Cat-11s on the “Secret Hall Way”. We stayed in 6317 on the Magic this past summer and it’s a great location. There is not a lot of ships motion when your sleeping. These cabins are also very quiet and the traffic is pretty low because not many folks realize that there is a hallway hidden back in there.

Thanks again for the info. We’ll repost the list and maps in a little bit. Have a great cruise!

We just got the last GTY cabin number for the F/E list. Unless someone else joins in between here and the 29th, this should be just what everyone needs to pull off a successful Fish Extender Gift Exchange. We really wish we were going along with y'all.

Just for giggles, if someone wants to (and we mean only if you really want to) and has any extra F/E “stuff”, leave a little something hanging on the fish or the door handle of Cabin #2035 and include a note telling them that the folks who were originally going to be in that room hope that they are having a “Wonderful” cruise and wish them a Merry Christmas. You can include the DIS website address and your and our DIS-Names so that they can try to look us up on the boards if they want, and if not, then it would just be a nice little extra for their cruise.

Well, enough of that, here’s the updated F/E list (and we'll republish the updated map in the next post):

I will, our cabin is very close. We will be thinking about you in December, and hope to meet you on a future cruise.

Thank you! I know it’s a silly idea, but since we can't sail this time, it’s just a way of still going along for the ride. Have a great cruise!

 

[ShastaDog]

I can't believe how long ago I booked this thing, thinking there would be plenty of time to get everything ready, and now it is only a month away! I still have so much to do. But I'm looking forward to meeting all of you soon!

 

[mcl]

Wow, I just realized in exactly 30 days we will be sailing toward the Bahamas!
Happy packing, everyone. For me, the anticipation and planning is part of the fun. Looking forward to meeting you'all.

Katie

 

[Ware Bears]

LOL!! I can't believe that after over a year of anticipation and huge excitement that I completely missed yesterday's date of exactly a month to go!! What am I like!!

Needless to say, I am now getting more and more excited by the day. Three more weeks of work (well, I have to go in on the Monday of the following week but I'm not counting that ) then it's off to WDW we go!!

I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone too.

 

[Ware Bears]

Rob, Tamara, thanks for the updated list and map.

I am going to be putting together our fish extender gifts next week.

Are there any children on the exchange who are allergic to/not allowed chocolate or candy?

I would hate to pack something that they can't have and disappoint them.
