This is the final list of participants for the FE List. I still need some information from a few more people. If you are one of them, please contact me with it ASAP.

If you requested to join before the end date, and you are not here, please let me know ASAP and I will correct it. I think I got everyone, but just in case someone slipped through the cracks...

Chris,

I sent you a PM. From what I can tell, with OGT, we won't get our room number until about 14 days out.

Also, are we having a meet or at least a board somewhere that can list room changes (i.e. port upgrades)?

Thanks again for setting up the FE list.

Jeff

That's going to get DW squeeling when those arrive at our house.

Unfortunately we won't have our room number when they arrive, but at least I have something to look forward to now before the room is assigned. I totally forgot about the docs coming soon.

Congrats on getting yours already.

Hi everyone
I haven't checked in for a while. I did a silly thing and spilt coffee over my laptop and now the keyboard and USB ports don't work. I've been lost without it. It was my baby. I've gone out and bought a little laptop that will be lighter for travelling so thats a good a thing but wont be able to get my other one fixed until after I get back.

Its getting close now. Only two weeks and five days - not that I'm counting - until we leave. My house is a mess. I have suitcases and FE preparations all over the house. I am looking forward to leaving winter behind though. We're all a bit tired of the cold weather and rain. Looking forward to some sunshine and heat.

I got an email from my travel agent this morning telling me that our documents were sent out Fed Ex on July 9. So hopefully they will arrive soon.

I've sent a request through but it just said join group and didn't give me the option of adding my DisBoard name. I don't really use Facebook a lot so wasn't sure if I had to do anything else. My name on Facebook is Suzanne Honnery.

To everyone that has joined since I last checked in. Hi. Can't wait to meet you all.

To all those experiencing some tough times. I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you all get the opportunity to experience a nice stress free break from everyone.

 

[PrincessBelle39]

I Love Chris's Door. I have about 12 magnets made right now, waiting on a couple more to be be made and I know there are some more from my mom in law to be. I LOVE IT!!!! I love all these little extra things, like the FE and the big pirate night and the magnets.

I love it too. Looks Awesome. We don't have any magnets. Hopefully I can come up with some spare time to organise something before we go.

Can some of you share the excursions you signed up for and did you book them through DCL or book them yourself. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
My sister and I are 2 adults traveling and looking to find some great excursions.

Also are any of you coming in the night before and where are you staying or are you flying in in the morning - using Disney transportation or something else. Coming from NY second cruise but it has been a while. Not sure what to do.

And what is FE???

HI Antoinette
We are actually coming in 17 days before. Its a long way to travel so we are making the most of it. We have rented a villa at Windsor Hills which we have done a couple of times before. We love it there. We have rented a car for our entire stay but are actually dropping it off at Disney the morning of the cruise and are travelling to port with Spaceport Transport. It just worked out cheaper for us to do that.

We've booked all our tours through Disney.

In Grand Cayman we are doing Discover Native Cayman and Saltwater Forest. I haven't had much success finding reviews on this but my Mum (Antmeal) is a non-swimmer so we wanted to do something here that we all could do. We did the Island Tour and Butterfly Farm last time so wanted something different. I would have loved to have done the stingrays but really wanted to something all together.

In Costa Maya we are doing The Mayans Through the Ages.

In Cozumel the four of us are doing Fury Catamaran Sail Snorkel and Beach Party. Mum is doing the Atlantis Submarine Expedition. We did Chankanaab dolphins last time which was awesome. We would have done that again but are going to Discovery Cove in Orlando instead.

We also have Palo brunch and dinner booked.

I got an email from my travel agent this morning telling me that our documents were sent out Fed Ex on July 9. So hopefully they will arrive soon.

I read this message and immediately went to look at the mail. Got into the house late and forgot to look before now. Unfortunately, no package. I am soooo jealous.

Can't wait to meet up with everyone and enjoy a much needed vacation.

See you all real soon!!

Hi Chris,

We got our cruise documents yesterday.

We haven't been assigned a cabin yet. We will let you know as soon as we get one. Can you add my daughter's name to the FE list? Her name is Courtney.

Thanks for all your hard work,

Pete

Sounds like you guys are well prepared so far I think we will be doing StringraySailing in the Grand Caymans and maybe on of the beach clubs in Costa Maya. Not sure about Cozymel yet. Thanks for writing back. Hope you have a safe trip. I am hoping we all get to meet each other - not sure if that is being set up - would be nice to meet for a drink at one of the pubs or bars.

Booked Excursion with Stingray Sailing they got great reviews on tripadvisor and they have been very helpful with corresponding and very reasonable $45 with transportation http://www.stingraysailing.com/boat_gallery.html

They still have room if anyone is interested - the more the merrier!!
