Halloween 2011. Oct 29th on the Magic

MommaMouse411- We had a great time at the game and the tickets were super cheap! LOL!! But thank you!!! Hey, you wouldn't happen to know anyone with Bucs tickets?:goodvibes

no on bucs...my company's not involved with the bucs :( if you like Hockey :) sometimes I can get tickets to those games (300 level )..
 
Thanks everyone for your warm welcome.

Since I don't have 10 posts under my belt, I can only PM staff, so excuse the personal responses below. I assume that I can respond if you PM me, so please feel free.

I was asked to provide some more info so you can get to know us, so here's a little bit more:

We're originally from Connecticut, but have been living out of that state since 1988. For the last seven years, we've lived in the Washington, DC area (Odenton, MD). Tracey is a sales assistant with a large promotions company in Maryland; I am a patent examiner with the US Patent & Trademark Office (yeah, I'm a Fed). I'm 48 and Tracey is 45; we don't have kids, but we do have eight cats (more, so much more, on them later).

So, who can explain fish extenders to me? I've seen pictures of them, but I don't exactly understand how they work. If someone is keeping a list of participants, please sign us up and let me know what we need to do (besides making the FE).

Dixielady908: Thanks for the heads-up on the 10/29 meet, we'd love to join in. our intention is to do as much with the community as possible, so please let me know what else is going on.

glindamood: Please add me to the postcard exchange, if you would.

Thanks again everyone!
Timmer

Timmer K...I'll add you to the FE..basically the fish extender is a wall organzier decorated disney style..and it hangs off the little fish decoration outside ofyour cabin door. All of us who are in the FE exchange will drop a little gift inside your FE throughout the cruise...its really fun..and nice to come back to your cabin and find a gift.

some gifts can be personalized, homemade, bought...you can give one gift per cabin, or one gift per person..or whatever you can do without breaking the bank :)....gifts can be a disney item or something you made to reflect our cruise...whatever you think is cool..

I've received homemade christmas ornaments
magnets
soaps
candy
pens
CD's with cruise music and CD with Disney music

my kids received
alot of stuff lol..crayons, tattoos, candy, markers, books, socks..just the other day the Winnie the Pooh wall rack we got broke..I was so sad..

anyways..its fun...

and Timmer..look in my signature and you'll see the OCt29th Fish Extender List, click on it and you'll see who's all participating

also need your cabin #

Thanks for the FE list add, MommaMouse411, we'll be in #5650.

Who's going to the parks prior to sailing? Any meets planned?

We're arriving at the Polynesian on Monday 24 October (via Amtrak AutoTrain - another first for us) and visiting the parks for the five-days before sailing. We'll be attending Mickey's NSS Halloween Party on Friday the 28th.

Now, we're battening down the hatches in anticipation of Irene.

Welcome Pooh and Tinker:

My name is Denise and traveling with Wally....this is only my 3rd and Wally's 2nd cruise.

We are having a cruise meet on 10-29 at 3pm in the promanade lounge, I'm the keeper of the list, so if you would like to join us, let me know and I will add you to the list.
There will be a FE exchange mommamouse411 is in charge of that list, we are having a postcard exchange, glindamood is in charge of that.....we are working on having a pajama (or come as you are) breakfast meet sometime in the cruise, but looking for any takers on keeping that list....along with details of that.....

I think I pretty much covered it....
From what I have been hearing, costum night is on formal night, so not sure if they will be switching formal night, either way, I will not be dressing for halloween, but thats all I know at this point.

Keep posting so we can get to know you better before the cruise.....

Denise

:welcome: to our merry band of cruisers. We are going to have a great time. My name is Gail and DH is David - children are grown so we are travelling by ourselves. This is our 13th cruise on DCL - with another one on Princess under our belt.
 
Strange computer behavior. Good morning everyone! Made it to Ohio without issue - other than the fact that it took me a bit more than 90 minutes to go about 20 miles. Glad I had just taken a pit stop when that happened - I would have been in trouble had I not.

Timmer - I added you to the postcard list.

Postcard Exchange - purchase local (to your area) postcards to distribute to your fellow cruisers. I will keep the list open until October 1st so if you would like to participate, please send me a PM with your name and cabin number. I will PM the list to everyone participating with the final list October 2nd.

Prayers to everyone that Irene doesn't cause you any damage. Glad to see that she has been downgraded instead of upgraded.

We are headed to the clinic at some point today - guess I best eat my Wheaties so I am ready.

Morning and happy Saturday....

Wally is working this morning, so I am just doing some cleaning around here....:crazy2:

So does anyone have any plans for the weekend??? Nothing here, just going to most likely go grocery shopping at some point, mow the lawn and thats pretty much all the excitement I can handle in one weekend.....

At least the weather is really nice...

Have a good one all

Timmer K...I'll add you to the FE..

MommaMouse

I just want to clarify that we are now at 12 cabins participating in the FE. At what date will you close the FE list? Just trying to plan the cabin gifts.

Thanks so much.
Desiree

PS I'm not sure if you saw my post from a while ago but our cabin number is 6146. I noticed it wasn't listed on the FE list you have.
 
well just a minute to say hello again.. got to get some sleep for Yes... i do work on sundays.. i'll be you know where i work... yes i do. will try and post tomorrow night.:hug:
 
Good Morning! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. We got to the clinic yesterday and he was up in a chair - STARVING! But, since they tore his esophagus when they put in the vent, that has to heal before he can have anything. One more trip into the clinic this morning and then the six hours home.

Have a great day everyone and I will check in tonight.

Another tidbit of info on us: all of our cats (we've got eight currently) have names that start with 'Z'.
 
Hello everyone! Looks like we will be joining you wonderful group of people on our first Halloween cruise!:cheer2:
I'm glad we have an active board! I would love to read through all the posts but we live way out in the sticks in WV, so no high speed internet for us, and even satelite internet doesn't do well where we are. :surfweb:
A little about us, we, Tammy(32) and my husband David(33) are platinum on RCCL, have sailed carnival, and this will make our 3rd Disney cruise. We sailed this interinary back in Sep 2009. We decided to go to Hawaii last fall and this year debated between the RCCL Freedom or Magic. We love disney and have never done a holiday cruise, so I'm sure it will be great!:goodvibes
I hope we are not too late to join the FE list. Please add us if you would. We done this the last time and had a wonderful time and received some great gifts. We had almost 30 rooms. I'll use my same poor excuse for a fish extender, I don't sew and I don't know anyone that does, so I did my best..lol :laughing:
We don't have a room number yet. I booked a VGT with restrictions, and will let you know as soon as we do for the fe list. Man, I know I'm taking a chance but it saved us nearly $900 and hopefully we will get some pixie dust!;)
Well, looking forward to getting to know you all in the next couple months. Hope everyone on the east coast in Irenes path is ok!

My name is Denise and traveling with Wally, no kids...they are grown so just the 2 of us.....I think we are all getting very excited as we are 61 days out:cheer2: I booked this cruise back in November 2008 so its been a very long time coming. Also we are having a meet on the 29th 3pm in the promanade lounge, let me know if your are interested and I will add you to the list....

Tim, I think with 8 cats and all the Z names, I know that I would get confused and be calling them the wrong name....:eek:

Well getting ready to head out to the store, have a good day

Denise:banana::banana:
 
Ok I just noticed that my ticker isnt working....I will give it to this evening then go to another site and put a new one up.....Love my countdown ticker!!!!:love::lmao:
 
Hey everyone! Trying to recover from 3 days of birthday activities...who knew a 6year old could party so hard!:lmao:

We are still taking a link of our countdown chain each day, but ds4 keeps trying to sneak over and take more off...I kindly explained that even if the chain is empty, the cruise wont come up any faster:rotfl2:

Oh, and did I mention I have been sick since Thursday?:headache: Oh well, at least we are getting closer to cruise time.:thumbsup2
