We are going on the Feb 16th Dream Cruise in 2014 and are interested in the Disney meet and greet (and possibly fish extenders). How do we join? Is there a limit to the number of people allowed for this group? Would love specifics on how to join!

Thanks,
Connie

to the DISboards and our cruise thread!

Unfortunately the "official" FE list was closed last week.
If you want to get on a latecomer list, please let me know everyone's first names and ages of any kids, plus your stateroom number.

Connie, by posting you already joined the cruise group. There will be a meet and greet on the first day, but we have not yet made any definite plans.

As for the FE, just see my other post to you and let me know what you think.

Now that was quick, Connie!

I will start the latecomer list lateron today. I have some things I need to get finished for work first.
This weekend I had 3 requests of people wanting to join the FE, so I guess there will be some more people joining until the cruise.
Tom and I have just started making our gifts and we will join the latecomer list as well.

So exciting to cruise with first time cruisers. They are going to love it. You are wonderful grandparents treating the girls.

Appreciate your quick response too. Do you have any gift ideas or links to sites that have ideas to pass along? Is there a money limit for the gifts? Thanks, Connie

Connie, this is a very good thread to get an idea on FE gifts - http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1980639

There is NO money limit, spend as little or as much as you want. But other than the gifts in this thread you could always get something that is from your particular area, postcards, candy or something.
Since Tom and I travel from overseas our gifts have to be small and lightweighed (esp. since we hand out (small) gifts every day). In February we love to bring European chocolate and candy to add to our small gifts. In summer that is a NO GO!
It is up to you if you give a cabin gift or a gift to every person in the room. This should just be fun, no worry!

We just got our Fish Extender, and cruise docs in the mail, can't wait see some of you guys on the ship.

We always pick a time on the first day (before the muster usually) to meet up with everyone from the thread, so I assume we'll be doing that this time too. I was thinking that I might set up a quick get to know you game for the kids, I have no idea what kind of game but I'll think of something. Any thoughts on this? My kids really like to get to know a few kids before they get to the clubs, it makes it so much more fun when they show up at a club and they already know one or a few of the kids

It feels exciting, doesn't it? Our FE sleeps in our Owner's Locker box and our docs have not arrived yet, but at least we will already be on our way to the US in one month's time.

So far I have not even thought about a time for a meet and greet. On our other cruises we always had one at the Vista Cafe at 3pm. That should give everyone enough time to have lunch and check out the stateroom before meeting.
What do you think?

I think that makes sense. I have only previously sailed the smaller ships so I'll have to find the Vista Cafe What time is muster 4:00 or 3:30?

I believe muster drill is at 4pm.
We had our meet last year at the Vista. Pretty centrally located.

Safety drill is at 4pm, so 3pm meet time gives us an hour's time. Vista Cafe is easy to find. It is on deck 4 opposite from where you will enter the ship.

Looking forward to the Meet and Greet, and a get-to-know you game is a great idea!!!
