Thank God there will be no rain. Wish it would be a little warmer. But how can we go wrong with 70's and sunny

When I last checked- Anaheim this week is warming up to the 80's F !!!

The good news for all of us, though, is that Puerta Vallarta, Manzanillo, and Cabo are all also sunny and in the 80's F !!! (At least for the next few days, hopefully that continues for the following week)

San Pedro is a little chillier because it is on the coast. Weather should be warmer as we head south. But, it reminded me that I need to pack light sweaters and jackets.

I wondered that also, I would love to be with the group on here.

If it's like our other dolphin things we should be able to gather and get in the same group, anywhere from 6-8 people with a dolphin. We'll just work extra hard to get you, Dany, her DD and the 3 of us in a group, that is 6.

Everyone in the FE--please look at the FE link right before you leave, and print out then. I had another change come in yesterday for NordyGirl. I will change those cabin numbers to red font so you can easily see the changes.

Thank you Kristi!! Last minute room changes will be noted but the labels may still show old room #.

 

[LiserAnn]

Wow, lots of exciting stuff going on around here while I was absent!

Well, I haven't done too well with my packing but today is the day. Still working on our big "reveal" to the boys. Right now they think we're going up the coast for a few days (hehehe) and my oldest is very upset to be missing a few bday parties on that silly "up the coast trip". But I have a feeling the sight of the Wonder will make all that go away...

Kel - I just found the FB page for this cruise...PM me and I will tell you all about DVC! Yes, there are perks for joining while at sea...

so what was the whole mess on FB about? since the person removed their posts I missed the gist of it. By giving one's name and ages - one is not really giving away enough information for identity theft - but if they are asking for more. I am NOT trying to rile folks up again - just asking what I missed...

3 more nights at work...and super sick to boot...never fails. A little PD for a speedy recovery from this stupid URI would be appreciated!


Welcome to lizac - I have enough extra FE gifts - so I will be sure to include your and yours - total number of people in the cabin is 3 or 4?

Thanks. I am actually taking dh with me (too chicken to do it on my own) so no worries if we aren't together. At least we all can walk to the center together.

I second that Sandy. For those of us driving, please drive safely.

...I am down to one final project due on Wednesday. Come Thursday morning I will be officially in cruise mode....kids are jumping off the walls and ready for this cruise. And Ann is outside spray painting Mickey tshirts. Oh my gosh....only one more week

Spray painting them! I can't wait to see them. DH actually brought the suitcases in the house. They are opened up a ready to be packed. I threw a few things in, so it's a start.

Well... I just want to make it clear... I know that I joined late.. but it was not intentional... Again...I had no idea what an FE was... I really appreciate everyones responses... I don't want anyone to feel like they have to put anything in it... I went shopping today and I found some knick knacks... I will be walking the halls with my girls and we are just going to put them in the FE's we see...... It will be exiting for my girls...I will probably go out and buy some more this week... I spent the entire weekend making this FE and it came out pretty good. I found a website called Scrapping the Magic and I followed the steps to make it... It came out very nice...Looking forward to meeting you all!!! Lissette

No worries!! I am pretty sure I can speak for the majority that we are more that happy to add a few more children. Now off to finish our FE. Can't wait to see what cool FE's everyone has. Don't forget to have it up first thing, I deliver on the 18th.

Hi all --

Now that I've finally (FINALLY!) started packing, I came across the cute little pirate girl dress (size 3T-4T) that my DD wore at Pirate night on our last Disney cruise 2 years ago. All of our pirate girls have outgrown it, so if anyone wants it, I'll bring it along. PM me if you're interested, and I'll send you a picture of it.

Safe travels everyone, and we'll see you very soon!

Yes, please drive slowly and safe. It is not a race to get to the hotel first. No edging out the other Wonder bound drivers. Save the ruthlessness for the port

Oh Lissette, no worries at all. I am always happy to add extra people in. I always have extra kids at my house, in my car, taking to the park, I always seem to have more than my 3. I plan for extras Glad you found our group. Take a look at the meets we have planned so we can all meet in person. Have you checked out the website at

Okay, did not get any packing done today. But we did our final Walmart trip for sunblock and snacks for the road. Got an extra SD card and a car-charger for my Ipod. Why is getting ready for the trip almost as expensive as the trip?

 

[lizac]

Yes.. I have to remember to print this and take it with me so that I am not lost... LOL...Just started packing for my girls.. need to get some sleep... it is almost 12PM EST and I need to get up for wk... very tired... have a laundry list of things to do... LOL

I used the Scrapping the Magic instructions for the sewn version also. I'm changing it just a bit, but turned out really cute. I have some treats for your girls, too.

Cripes!!! I knew I forgot something today...I made my now second to last WallyWorld run. It least I can take back a pair of Joe's pants too.

 

[CasaMartinez]

Wow, been tied up all weekend and came back to lots of pages to read. Thanks again for the birthday wishes!! I'm almost done with my FE's and lanyards. Should have it all done by tomorrow.

Thanks for the response... As I said I am sooooo new to all of this... What are the lanyards for? Where do I post our names?

Hello - The lanyards are just another fun way to recognize everyone from the disboards. It will have the first name of everyone in your group and the disboard name on the bottom. They also come in handy to carry your key to the world card. If you interested you can PM me or post here. All I need are the first names. Also they are $1 each and you can pay me on the ship.

 

[Travelbee]

Welcome Lizac! I added your info to the website!

I put a poll on the website on where we should hold the SM reveal. Please go and vote. It'll be on Day 10, last sea day at 4 pm. If you can't make it, it's no big deal, Helen and I have the complete list and will be able to tell your SM who you are!

For those traveling soon, safe travels! It's chaotic in our household. DH is taking a work trip and won't be home until Thursday night and then he has to head back out to Vegas AGAIN on Saturday. Sunday cannot come soon enough...

 

[MiniCoops]

As I start with all of my packing...Do I need to pack a hair blower or do they have them on the ship?

I agree to whoever said that getting ready has become more expensive than the trip.

I can't wait for cruise day!!!!
