It's is part of the fun. I think it's part this is our 1st ever cruise AND 1st ever Disney anything......that and I'm the only one in the family who knows!

OH wow! Yeah on my first cruise, I was dying! But first Disney anything? OOHHH BOY are you in for a treat! Have you been on another cruise line? I have heard that Disney blows the others away with the service. I dont know because i had never cruised with anyone before but I am in love with it. But if no one knew, that would be hard as well. I cant keep a present a secret to save my life!

 

[JenGC]

I totally agree! I love the pre-cruise anticipation. I love reading about the cruise and coming on this board and talking about the cruise. Actually I love anything that has to do with the cruise! My family does not get me, so this is my only outlet!

Yeah a lot of people seems to need this outlet LOL Thankfully, that is not my situation. We are constantly dealing with Disney things since I make things Disney for my business. The only down side is that I dream about being there all the time

OMG.. Now I have Carly singing in my head!

LOL!

I am glad to know that there is not something wrong with me......I am obsessed with this board and the anticipation of the trip. My husband thinks I am whacked with how obsessed about planning things out already that are 6 months out. My son does not know about the trip until Christmas so I can't talk to him about it........
I have been on Carnival cruise lines before but never DCL and am soooooo excited! I am happy to hear that it is under 200 days away! YAHOOOOOOO!

Since this is my first Disney cruise ...how do we know how many FE gifts we will need? Also, were you able to find recent navigators?
Thank you very much for answering this newbies questions.....

Well, about 6 weeks before we are suppose to sail, we will close the FE list, then you will have your final list. Until then, I just kinda make the gifts as people sign up. No problem on the questions! Ask away!

I can't wait and feel I have so much to do and no time! lol

I went to Hobby Lobby yesterday to start getting ideas for the FE exchange......this could get expensive!

I noticed that the cruise list had not been updated for the FE list? Has anyone gone through and counted how many? If not, I can go through the threads and count if nobody has it down? Just trying to figure out what to do for the FE gifts.....Thank you!

Wow that place looks awesome. It is a bit too far for me, I guess I have to stick with Michaels.

Thanks for the info.

Yea, the one here is in the old wal-mart so it's HUGE! We have a Ben Franklin Crafts and Jo-Ann fabrics as well here, so I have some choices.

180 days!!

(just had to get a little whoop whoop out of my system, lol!)

Has anyone ordered non-DCL trip insurance yet? I am thinking of calling insuremytrip-anyone use them?
We have had 2 close calls with weather and flights up here, and I have to be sure it will cover for flight delays or I will stress right up until we land in FL.
DCL won't work for us because we didn't book air through them so it wouldn't be covered, and it won't cover our stay at POFQ before the cruise either.
I am anxious to get it booked, and get the flights booked. Then there is nothing left to do but anticipate

Jen, when you update the webpage, feel free to put Dave and my ages in. We'll both be 46 when we cruise.
