December 23, 2009 ~ Christmas on the Wonder!

[JohnsPrincess]

Yeah, I'm trying to finish up here in Kuwait. I've run out of boxes. It's such a pain. There are a bunch of things I don't want to trust to the post office and that takes up a lot of space/poundage in my suitcases. So there's a LOT more stuff I need to mail than I had thought. *sigh*

I'm done buying what I need for my FE gifts though!! I think/hope they will be well received!!

I just completed our online checkin! The cruise will soon be here. Lots of snowstorms across the country(Canada)! It will be nice to leave it all behind for a while.

2 weeks!! Two weeks from today (it's Wed here for me...) we're setting sail!!! I leave Kuwait on Monday night so after that I'm not sure how often I'll be able to get on the internet but I'll try to check it before we push off!!

Lori - you have my email address now so if there's anything important, please email me! Like if a room changes or anything!! Thank you!!

Be careful travelling Lexi! And welcome back to the US!

I'm waiting on one room number yet, I'll email when I get it. I'll also have it posted on our cabin door on the boat.

Has anyone thought about a meet while onboard?

Just wondering if there was any interest....

Thank you! It's my great-grandma's birthday so my mom says she'll be watching out for me. Here's hoping because I really don't like flying. Lol

Sounds good!

I wouldn't mind...I just don't know when we'd be able to do it??

Well, we caved on this trip...We told the kids!! Just too much going on with school holiday parties, 2 of my kids have birthdays and the 2 cruises. Now at least they can help with the packing. We did online checkin for the 1st, still working on the second. We were at MK last night till 1 a.m. so we're running a little slow today. We figured we'd hit all the parks before the cruise to get us in the mood!!

We'd be interested in a meet, if there is one. I haven't even started getting things together yet, but we did leave the essentials,(sunscreen, goggles, arcade cards),in the luggage from last month.

Here's to a short last week of school for the kids!!!

Hi everyone! Just one week to go! We are flying into Orlando on Mon and staying in Cocoa Beach for 2 nights precruise. Hope everyone has a safe trip to the Port.

Just wondering if you've gotten your cabin numbers so I can update the FE group?

THanks!

 

[mickey squared]

I'm starting to put piles together...and finally did the online check-in.

What is everyone doing in the Bahamas?

I hate to pre-book in case the weather is too iffy. Since we'll have 2 days at Castaway, I don't know if we should do a beach...hmmm...decisions, decisions

One more week!!!

See everyone soon.

 

[Tomskatt]

A week out and we finally got all our confirmations and tickets!!! Thank you Make a Wish! We are all so excited!!! See you all in a few more days!!! Now we gotta hope we can get in on any registrations at this late date... Ahhhhh, it's all good!

I've got it. I just have to wait till after work hours to send out the PMs for update......Just call me Bob Cratchitt!!


They'll be out tonight in everyone's boxes.

Heading to the Airport in the AM, there have been cancelations today due to the storm in the US. We have a direct flight from Toronto to MCO so we should be OK. See you all on the Ship!

 

[JohnsPrincess]

Did everyone have a wonderful time??!!

We had a Blast! Even my husband, who complained a bit about the cost beforehand, loved Everything!

 

[TheBeadPirate]

We had a great time also!

We met Patricia and Marguerite and her bunch and they were great!


We decided to book the 2010 Christmas cruise..... till I priced it yesterday........ Holy moly!




Thanks for all of the great FE gifts!

Hey Lori and Rick,

You guys should have stayed on with us. We played every round of Bingo and won 6 more times plus more raffles!! Of course, one number away from the jackpot!! We had extra spa gift certicicates that we didn't use, we wished we could have given them to you. The crowd was very different. Much more foreign visitors from land and sea, so not much socializing. The good part was the customs line to get off the ship was so short for US citizens.

And, Castaway was much warmer and brighter. Maybe we'll meet again. We don't have any plans yet...

Thanx to everyone for the FE gifts...my kids loved them. We missed them on our 2nd part of the trip!!

We had a great time! After the cruise we stayed 2 nights in Orlando, the first day we were all so tired we just took it easy at the hotel. We booked the Dream onboard for March 2011. It priced out about 2500. cheaper then this Christmas cruise. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!

It was a great trip for the kids. They had a ball. I however, strained my neck and back at the airport and was in agony 99% of the time. I must apologize to my FE friends. Everything was so wonderful and generous and I am so appreciative! My plans, however, fell apart. I sent my kiddies and hubby to do most of it and it didn't go as planned. If I missed you, I am sorry. If you found doubles of some things and not enough of others ... that's all my fault for sending an 11 year old out to do it with his dad! I found some stuff in the luggage when we got home. Argggh! Anyway, glad you all had fun!!! Happy New Year!
