FE thread: Disney Dream, 29th August 2016!

[AJHILL]

Yay another birthday!! If I am understand correctly you can't private message anyone until you reach 10 posts.

 

[AJHILL]

I am in the same boat, didn't feel comfortable sharing my info on the feed.

 

[Twilight Terror]

@JayHatch16 Thanks, I have added you to the list. As AJHILL has pointed out, I cannot PM you, and you cannot PM me until your post count has reached 10. Feel free to explore the board and start posting any questions you have about your upcoming holiday, either in our other cruise meet thread, or in the appropriate forum for your question. It is surprisingly easy to share your ideas, ask questions and give feedback. Before you know it, you will be up to 10 posts, and addicted to the DIS!!!

* * * FE UPDATE * * *

Greetings fellow cruisers! I just wanted to let you all know that we have 5-weeks until the cut-off for our FE group. I can't believe we are so close already!

We have a great FE group developing, with just over 10 cabins and 40 people participating! I am only doing rough numbers right now, as there is still plenty of time and room for change!

For those of you who are new to cruising, I just wanted to remind you about creating your fish extender. This is the bag(s)/shoe/letter organiser that you hang from your cabin door for others to place their FE gifts in. You can go as all-out-crazy as you like and make one, or you can buy a simple wardrobe organiser to act as your Fish Extender, again this is a personal choice for you and your family. If you need inspiration, have a look around the cruise forum, as many people have come up with creative ways to make FEs, particularly those who are not as handy with a needle and thread as others!

Happy cruising

Thanks for the update!!

We are very happy to find this FE group and would like to join. This will be our first time being part of an FE.

We are 2 grandparents and 2 grandchildren Dylan 11, Summer 12. We would also like to share our personal room info when we are able to PM as others have requested.

 

[Twilight Terror]

Hello and welcome @pjOhana - great to have you on board. I have added you to the list. As soon as you hit 10 posts, I will message you for further details! In the meantime, feel free to explore the boards and start asking all those burning questions you might have! You can also chill and chat with your fellow cruisers in the meet thread, which can be found here: http://www.disboards.com/threads/august-29-2016-4-night-bahamian-on-disney-dream.3420547/

We have reached the magic number 10. Now what happens??

Can we get a rough count of the number of staterooms on the FE currently so we can make sure we are in the ballpark for making enough gifts? Depending on the number and our schedule less than 20 days may not be enough time for us to make all the gifts we need.

Of course @BelleInBlue! And I know what you mean; we only have two-weeks! We are keeping our gifts small and simple! Anyway, as it stands at this moment in time, we have:

13 cabins/families participating
46 people (26 adults/20 children)

Please note that the actual total number of people may change because not all families have provided further details on party numbers or ages. This is my best estimate at present from all the information I have received. I hope that gives you enough information to be going on with.

If you need to know anything else, please ask or send me a PM.

I have just been checking in on post counts, as I know there are still a few people who want to share information privately. Remember that you need to have a post count of 10 to activate the private messaging section of the message board. You will need to have access to this system in order to confirm your participation and receive the final FE list.

I saw a few people who have not quite reached 10 posts yet, so I am just going to link you into this post. You still have a few weeks to increase your post count, and I know some of you are very close Feel free to come chat in the meet thread, or ask some questions around the rest of the forum!

Hello! Could someone tell me what the cut off date for FE sign up is? I'm sure someone has mentioned it before however I have over looked it! Thanks!

 

[JayHatch16]

That's really cool @JayHatch16 Will your mum be staying in the same cabin or is she on board in a separate cabin?

Excellent! I will add your mum. Great that you all get to go together! We love going crushing as a family! You still have a few more weeks to go at the moment, so don't worry too much. It's remarkable how quickly you'll get there without even trying!

 

[Twilight Terror]

Break out the hot glue!

I haven't decided if I might need the hot glue, the cold glue or just the laminator.... Fitting our FEs in between costumes for MNSSHP! We are hitting the deck running on return to port - dock, go to hotel, possible nap, then early evening to MK for dinner before MNSSHP; it's going to be one very busy day!
