Halloween Fantasy On The High Seas - Eastern October 24th 2015

[Scouter]

Hi friends, I am brand new to this discussion board and don't know what I am doing. I would be extremely grateful for any tips you could offer. I just read about the fish extender exchange and would love to join in but have no idea what to do. Any advice please? Thanks! Can't wait to meet you all!!!

Hi Lisa!
Are you joining us on this cruise?
The DIS boards are awesome for finding just about any information you'd like
to know about anything Disney anywhere in the world! I've met lots of great
people through these boards and often tell people who I know love Disney to come here to chat, learn and meet new friends!
You just have to spend some time browsing around
If you're on this cruise with us, I'll add your name and any family information, who's traveling with you .... what you might be celebrating..... etc on our first page of information for this cruise meet thread.
Then I'll contact the couple who are organizing the FE to add you
Glad you're here!

Hi Leah!
Welcome! We'll let the guy organizing know. So happy to have another
family join us! Who's in your party and where are you all from? Have you cruised before? On DCL?
I'm Rose and I'm from around Syracuse NY and this is my 6th DCL cruise.
I'm traveling with my SO Bob.

Hi Rose,

We are from Sparks, NV and this will be our second Disney cruise. We were on a 3-day Dream cruise in April 2014 and now want a full 7 days on the Fantasy!

It will be myself, husband Victor, son Brayden (10) and daughter Peyton (8).

Better late than never, but we just booked today! Just DH and I, from eastern Long Island.


This will be our 6th Disney cruise, 7th cruise overall. This will give us the Grand Slam!

Hi Leah!
I just added your info on our first page.
Glad to meet you

It must be fun going with 2 young ones. Mine is grown and moved away.
I missed when he was little.
Your kids will have so much fun. A longer cruise will be great for them.

Hi!
Welcome!
We're NY'ers too, but from the snowier part, around Syracuse.

I'm just traveling with my partner too, no kids this time. Mine is
grown and has his first real job and makes more than me now so I've told him if he wants to go anymore, he's in his own room and he pays for it himself. That's a nice financial relief

This is my 6th cruise and I will also have sailed on them all after this one, same as you! I loved the Dream and
so can't wait to be on The Fantasy. Although, what I loved about my last cruise was that it was a double dip on Castaway
Cay! I wish I could be doing that again! I've done this Eastern before but my SO hasn't and I'm cruising with a bunch
of folks I've met on previous cruises so this one wasn't so much about the itinerary, just the company and completing
going on all 4 ships.

I've added you to the first page, but do you wish to give me names?
It's perfectly fine if you don't.

Hi!
Welcome!

Another couple with no kids. DINK's used to be the word back in
the 80's, I think. I'm showing my age, huh?

I've also added you and hubby to our main page.... care to share names or
a special celebration?

Lucky you from NC! One of the places I'd like to consider moving to
when I finally get to retire! Four seasons still but MUCH less snow!

I'm so excited to have new people in our group!


It's been so lonely on this board!

It's exciting to know we're going this year!

 

[Dyerneeds]

Welcome all newcomers!!

Mike aka Underdog here and i'll be joined by lovely bride of 40 years Robin aka Tart Annihilator! This will be our 11th Disney cruise.

Now that the Holidays are over we're hoping to start getting more excited about this cruise. Robins planning on retiring just before the cruise so we'll be in "celebration mode" big time.

 

[Scouter]

Mikey , why is it that whenever we come on here everyone else leaves???

 

[QuiltTeddy]

Hi!

Yes, you are considerably more north than us. We are on the eastern tip of the Island (Hamptons). Names are: Fred & Kathy

Look forward to seeing everyone and am so glad we suddenly booked this cruise, not having planned one for this year.

 

[oybolshoi]

welcome all newcomers!

This will be our 9th Disney Cruise and third time on the Fantasy (our favorite ship). We're also DINKs ...

Edited to add ... I'm Brenda and my better half is Jason.

It's not you Rose, it's me.

 

[Dyerneeds]

Well hello Mr FO!

Wow, Kathy, your signature is impressive, with all your trips and
also for being married over 30 years! Congratulations to you guys

Wow, this ship will be filled with DINKS!

 

[Scouter]

It's not you Rose, it's me.

It's the both of us. We're not just DINKS, we're DORKS!

Well hello Mr FO!

Thief!


Anyone wondering about the FO, it was a made up thing about being the first person posting on a new page, a First One or Fresh One.

Yeah, we do silly stuff when we're bored because there is no one else to play with. Yup, dorks.

 

[Scouter]

What's everyone's plans before or after the cruise?

We'll fly in the night before the cruise and most likely stay somewhere near port, not sure where yet.

Then, we're planning on staying at WDW until the Thursday after we get back from our cruise.
I'm dying to do the Food and Wine at Epcot one day and then one day doing a Backstage Magic tour.

Luckily, Bob is game, as he really would much rather be hiking, camping, fishing....

Well the plan is still in place for Robin to retire at the end of Sept. Then we'd get our "snowbird" place all set up before the cruise and after the cruise just head there and spend the winter in Florida! Im seeing a little hesitation in Robins actions lately though as she really does like her job and gets paid pretty well for it and hates giving up all that money. The next few months will be decision time for her for sure!
