We're flying out of buffalo too! (but we're actually from Buffalo) ... we're neighbors!

Oh cool! We are flying out on the 8th in the afternoon, how bout you? This will be our first time flying out of Buffalo, when we go to MCO we usually fly out of Detroit.

We are flying down the 4th in the morning...The just in the last year re-did the security doubling the size so it's so much quicker and smoother to get through then usual...Buffalo has some nice non-stops to MCO though

Hi, this is our first time cruising. We are so excited. My name is Emily and i am 13. I am going with my parents and my sister Jessica, 16.

Hello Emily (and Jessica),

My daughter, Keighley, is turning 16 in two weeks and I know she'd be happy to talk to you both. This will be our third Disney cruise, first time to the Western Caribbean, and we cannot wait.

You can email me at cmclaura@aol.com and I'll pass your email along to Keighley to write back.

Regards,

Laura

I cannot seem to find the name of the Facebook site set up for our group. Can someone please send to me?

I continue to have incredible problems accessing this site, having to reset my password each and every time and I'm exhausted, lol. Perhaps the Facebook page will help me to keep in better contact with everyone.

Thanks.

I never found a Facebook site for this cruise. Is there one, or is it for a certain group of individuals among our cruisers?

I envy all of you who are able to check in and "talk" often!! I know I am after the Dec. 1 date, but since I was on the original FE list, I hope that I am still on the final list, though my name was on a 'question' list as I read through all of the posts that I have missed! The ages of our second cabin children are DD10 and DS9(cabin 7037), names Allie and Cole, respectively. Our cabin 7035 children are DS13(Hoa) and DD11(Madison). I went to the google docs and printed out the list, but there were still cabin #s missing. Is everything on the facebook page? My DD has facebook, so I will be having her log on to the page, hopefully. Any other info would be greatly appreciated. So looking forward to a break in the hectic life - relaxing for a week on the cruise!!

See everyone in a few weeks!!

My children love the pin trading and will probably have theirs with them on the cruise - what are your plans?

I am a huge fan of DCL pins. I have over 200 of them and am looking forward to getting some more

I have found however that the cruises are generally not that active in trading. The CM's in the shops have laynards and they have the nightly sale in the lobby with the officers trading the one night.

The problem for me was that there were very few DCL pins for trade. If I remember correctly, on my last cruise I only traded for 1-2 cruise line pins.

Here are a few pics of some of my DCL pins

I would love to meet up with anyone interested in trading on the cruise

Hey Everyone! Was away from home for a few days...went to a Christmas Ball and had a magnificent time. I'm definitely in the spirit now!

I will finish organizing a final list tomorrow, and let everyone know when it is ready. If you haven't sent me room numbers, etc. yet, please do so. One last shot for the FE if you are interested, also!!

Everyone ready for the Holidays??

Wow! Your collection is beautiful...I framed some of my pins...I just don't know how to put pictures on the dis to show them off.

I find it so annoying how little trading occurs on the the ship. We should definitely set a time to meet up and pin trade. My dad and I are seriously into pin trading and my siblings (9 and 13) are mildly into it (They have their books but mostly trade with cast members since we don't let them even attempt to trade with the sharks at downtown disney). I'm trying to think of a good time to meet up and trade...I'm thinking saturday wouldn't be a good day because obviously whatever general meet we have, plus boat drill and dinner...there isn't time...but does anyone know our first sea day? That would probably be a good day to set it up...

If anyone else or their kids or family members are into pin trading (weather serious trading or just having fun with cast members) speak up! and I'll organize a time and place for us to get together and trade and show off our collections...

Fawn, my mom (phred52) said she sent you the room numbers for our group...please tell me if you didn't get them so I can resend it to you

So does anyone have any suggestions on when and where we should meet up? And I know Newbydisney suggested we have something so we can recognize each other. I figure we should get on this as we are only 34 DAYS AWAY!!

For a general meet, in the past has been at 3 or 3:30 (I'm having trouble remembering when the boat drill is...considerably earlier then to boat drill starting lets say...) on the day we board the ship in the Promenade Lounge on deck 3... In general except for when a dis meet has been happening, that place is empty at that time. Anyone have other suggestions?

3 pm at Promenade Lounge usually works out well because it's far enough before the safety drill to not have to rush to get back to the room.
