DREAM 5-night June 21 2011

[miztigg]

I just did my 1st FE exchange on out last 3 day we had so much fun!!! I would like to do it again . I have 8yr old twin girls and i also have a son who will be 15 on this cruise who love to hang on the sports deck.

Well, sure looks like we won't have a shortage of teen boys and their hormones on this trip! I expect mine to be a major contributor.

I was the keeper of the list for my last cruise - it worked very well. I would be happy to keep that list for this group. Did we ever agree on a name for our Motley Cruise?

How about we make the deadline for participation at the 75 day mark prior to the cruise?

Please feel free to send the following information to me via pm:

DisBoard Name
E-mail Address (for spreadsheet):
Names of Adults:
Family Name:
Names/Ages/(M/F) of Kids:
Stateroom No.
Cell Phone (in case of ship delay)
Location/State, etc

I'll send out periodic updates as time gets closer.

I know we are a year away from our cruise. We just participated in our first FE exchange on our first 5-day cruise June 13. The *keeper of the list* initially set a cutoff date for participation, which was about 6 weeks before the date of sail. This allowed the participants enough time to plan, purchase and prepare their FE gifts. Everybody sent the following information in a PM:

DisBoard Name
E-mail Address (for spreadsheet)
Names of Adults
Names/Ages of Kids
Stateroom No.
Location

He would list the following information and update a particular post so everyone could keep track. The new participants would be added in bold:

DisBoard Name
Jack (Adult)
Jill (Adult)
Billy (10)
Betty (6)

After the deadline, he emailed the Excel spreadsheet out to the participants that included the above information (including the staterooms). On Day 1 of our cruise, we all met and introduced ourselves.

Just thought I would share an idea.

Thanks so much Rani!! We love doing the FE thing and it is always well worth all the preparation.....always great to spread a little pixie dust!
One thing that was done on prior cruises was either to have a designated spot for a DIS board meet at the sail away party, and distribute any updates to the FE listing info, or have the keeper of the list put any changes/updates to cabin info on their door. We had a lot of changes at the last minute, especially with upgrades at port, etc. How about 60 days out for the FE deadline?

The DIS meet sounds great. We did that too. Also, 60 days out for the deadline sounds good to me.

I'll send out the last update of the list info no later than June 18, 2011. How about we meet in the Promenade lounge at 3 pm - bring your lists in case there are any changes and we can update each other at the meet. I wonder if there is a way to leave a final copy at the guest Services desk in case anyone needs it as a reference.

I just booked this 5 day and now we are doing a B2B on the 6/17 and the 6/21! It will be myself 46 and DD Skylar who will be 12. DH is going home after the first part of our B2B. Skylar and I just got off the 5 day Wonder last weekend. We had so much fun just hanging out! Look forward to more girl time together!

Ok - let's pick a name for this Motley Cruise so we can get ourselves working on fun stuff.....

 

[skylynx]

I like Motley Cruise.

 

[ranidayz]

You know, it just occured to me that there may not be a "Promenade Lounge" on the Dream. Do we know yet what the lounge closest to Guest Services may be set up a meet on the first day?
