Disney Dreaming on 3/27/14

[Momto500]

I am finishing up all of my FE gifts... and super super excited!!! Packing the box of all of them to send to the ship tomorrow. This has been a nice way to build up the excitement for the cruise, for myself and the boys. So, since I'm home alone tonight, I had to share with those that would understand the excitement!

That really IS exciting! I agree that the FE preparations are such a fun way to look forward to the trip.

It's going to be here before we know it!

Thanks so much for positing the movies showing.. I am totally excited. Cannot believe we are this close. Finished up all of the FE gifts yesterday, they are all sorted in zip lock bags by cabin... waiting to be packed. I just cannot wait!!

Has anyone else started packing? I know it's premature, but I dragged out our suitcases this afternoon! My DH thinks I'm nuts-- our FE's (combined with my mom and dad in-laws) take up a whole suitcase. Oh well- we will need the space to haul stuff home, I'm sure! Anyway, the kids and I are mostly packed, and DH will throw a few things in the night before and be all set. We're ready… let's go!!!

We have been picking out clothes and setting them aside for weeks.....This is a month long cruise right??? LOL

Seriously, I wonder if the weather will be colder than normal....it is everywhere else.

Oh my goodness, I'm so glad you mentioned suitcases. I forgot about the airline breaking 2 wheels off my luggage on our last trip. Time to buy some last minute Mickey luggage, maybe? I appreciate this reminder!

Hi happy go lucky,

Sorry about missing the fish extender deadline. I know it's still going to be a great trip for you!

Although our fish extender gifts have already been boxed up to ship, I made some extra magnets, so I'll stick one on your door to say "hello" and wish you a happy cruise.

It's hard to imagine we'll be at sea in less than 2 weeks!

Is it too late to join in on the fish extenders? I'm not totally sure how to do this, but I have bought some stuff for the gifts. I just haven't been able to find how to join in. We have three kids. Is it still possible to join in?

 

[WaltDisney2014]

Fish Extenders has closed BUT I would be more than glad to participate with you. I too missed the deadline! Please post names and ages here along with your room number.

My # 8643 Ashley 11 going on 12

That's a great idea, WaltDisney2014! Hopefully Happy Go Lucky will join your group too. Hope you have a wonderful cruise!

Is anyone else headed down for some park days before we sail? We decided to get in the pirate mood by booking some pirate rooms at Caribbean Beach. I've always wanted to sleep in the pirate beds. Arrrrr!

Awesome Disney2014! We are #8134 and I have Braden (11), Conner (9) and Haley (7). Anyone else wanting join in late would be great! I have extra stuff I will bring. I need to read up more on how to do this... But we are excited! See you all soon! We are doing Disney World Tuesday and Wednesday.

 

[mikezipk]

Happy go lucky, do you want to join in?

 

[Momto500]

We leave Monday morning for Orlando, and we too will be @ WDW Mon - Wed before the cruise. Staying at All star Movies though. Is everyone excited? We didn't send our FE gifts in advance, as I originally planned. Used an entire suitcase packing them. extra baggage fee is still cheaper than the USPS shipping.

 

[junebugTN]

Momto500, I have always wanted to stay at All Star Movies. I love the theming!

We are so excited! We had a Disney themed dinner last night and played a Pirates of the Caribbean board game. That was fun, but then I had a dream last night that I forgot to pack my fish extender....oops!

While packing, I thought of another tip of things to consider bringing. Take small bills with you if you're going to the markets in Nassau. We just had twenties on us, and several vendors were unable to make change. My husband felt it was a ruse to get you to say, "just keep the change," and it worked on me. But this time I'm going to remember small bills so that doesn't happen this time.

Thanks for the tip!

Now maybe you can help me with something....what exactly can you do on the ship when it is at port? I mean besides swimming and the aquaduck? Can you go to a movie? What else do you recommend. Castaway cay will be too cold to snorkel or swim right?
