Disney Wonder March 20th 2011 sailing

OK so I have a few FE questions...lol. I went and got all the goodies for the kiddos for the FE exchange. My concern is the bulk and weight of the gifts..I mean, they wont take an extra suitcase, but will take a lil bit of room..

I found some things (without giving too much away) which I don't feel are too heavy, but wanted to see if maybe I am putting in too much. I basically have a "goodie bag" for each of the kids and a lil sumthen for the adults too. Each bag has like 3-4 items in it...(spent bout $2 per bag). Is that "normal?" I'm just trying to get an idea if I'm doing enough, too much or just right TIA for any suggestions ...thanks!

I'm doing the same... a little goodie bag for the kids, and something for the adults.

We're hoping too...the one thread said that they didn't have it because it was too many princesses...So my daughter says, why can't they have different characters? Why can't it be Alice or the Mad Hatter or a Tinkerbell tea?

On our Disney Cruise last year, it was an Alice in Wonderland Tea along with the Mad Hatter....

Hi All,

Sadly, we won't be bunking at the Doubletree the night before our cruise.... my mom decided to move that weekend, and my son has a 2 PM baseball game scheduled. We won't even leave San Diego until after 4:30 PM....

I hate that thought that I would be spending over $400 on 2 hotel rooms only to arrive at 6:30-7:00, have dinner, sleep and then leave in the morning....

My budget hurts just thinking about it....

AND... my mom's new place is 30 mins away from the port, so I can sleep at her house and drive in on Sunday AM right before boarding time.....

So, I wont be at the Doubletree meet on Sat night, but have fun everyone.

Cyndi

Have been listening to music this morning. It's dreary weather here in the NW, but I think we're thankfully past the snow.

Knee Deep--Zac Brown Band and Jimmy Buffett

Gonna put the world away for a minute
Pretend I don't live in it
Sunshine gonna wash my blues away
Had sweet love but I lost it
Got too close so I fought it
Now I'm lost in the world tryin to find me a better way

Wishin' I was
Knee deep in the water somewhere
got the blue sky, breeze and it don't seem fair
the only worry in the world
is the tide gonna reach my chair
Sunrise, there's a fire in the sky
never been so happy
never felt so high
and I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

Wrote a note, said "Be back in a minute"
Bought a boat and I sailed off in it
Don't think anybody's gonna miss me anyway
Mind on a permanent vacation
The ocean is my only medication
Wishin' my condition ain't ever gonna go away

Now I'm knee deep in the water somewhere
Got the blue sky breeze blowin' wind thru my hair
Only worry in the world
is the tide gonna reach my chair
Sunrise, there's a fire in the sky
never been so happy
never felt so high
and I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

This champagne shore washin' over me
It's a sweet sweet life livin' by the salty sea
One day you can be as lost as me
Change your geography and maybe you might be

Knee deep in the water somewhere
got the blue sky breeze blowin' wind thru my hair
only worry in the world
is the tide gonna reach my chair
Sunrise, there's a fire in the sky
never been so happy
never felt so high
and I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

Come on in
the waters nice
find yourself a little slice
grab a backpack
otherwise you'll never know until you try
when you lose yourself
you find a key to paradise

I have to admit I tend to lose track of things planned. I know there's the meet and greet on the Promenade deck at 2:30. Is that right? Is there also a celebrations get together?

I didn't plan anything, and I don't think anyone else did either.....

I am using this to send notes/little gifts to their staterooms. Nothing big, just a little treat to say Happy Birthday!!

That is very nice of you!! I wanted to make sure I wasn't putting my name down for something and then didn't show up!

 

[thelionqueen]

I know what you mean....I am still in the middle of Girl Scout Cookie season and am swamped. Trying to get ready for this plus I am bringing family who have never been on a cruise.

I am going to blink and it will be March 20th!

 

[Vegaslover]

Just a reminder that we are having a meet and greet on day 1 in the promenade lounge at 2:30. Day 1 meaning the day you board the ship at LA port.

Lots of kids will be there. This meet is open to anyone on this forum with or without kids. We'd love to see you!

I used my commute this morning to wait on hold to speak to Disney. The current list of movies anticipated for our cruise are as follows:

Oceans
Toy Story 3 (3D)
The Sorcerer's Apprentice
Step Up (3D)
You Again
Secretariat
Tangled
Tron Legacy (3D)
Gnomeo & Juliet (3D)
I Am Number Four
Mars Needs Moms (3D)

I think Mars Needs Moms will be shown as nighttime entertainment one night, but could not confirm this.

16 days and counting ... Much to do before then!

I like the list. But really, secretariat? it's been on dvd for quite awhile.

 

[cruisindisney]

Thank you for calling about the movies! I just knew someone in our group would be checking on that for us.

I am anxious to see Tangled again. LOVE that movie. Glad it comes out on dvd right after we return.

We leave 2 weeks from TODAY! I have so much to do!

 

[Vegaslover]

I am really excited to see toy story 3 in 3D. I didn't get to see it in 3D when it came out.

 

[thelionqueen]

Great list of movies, thanks for checking that out for us!! It is getting SO close now! I'd like to see almost all of those movies, so that's great for me

I will be at the meet-n-greet on day 1...can't wait to see everyone
