January 29, 2011 - 7 Day Eastern - WOOHOO!!

Just wanted to let you all know that the list for the FE is complete on my end, I just don't always have a chance to update the main post. Anyone that pm'd me will be on the list, and a master list will be posted sometime after the FE sign-up closes. If people want to make their own spreadsheets, that is fine, but I would suggest not offering it up to others as my list is the only master list. I've been quite busy with work the past few weeks, so I don't always have a chance to update post #26. Mom2Brats had a few questions, so I figured I'd wait until I had a re from them to put them on the list.

Hey no problem!!!! Thanks for doing it.....

Woo hoo! Is anyone else finding themselves more excited about planning the cruise than Christmas?????

Me Me...I keep thinking ..... Oh god I have to put up the tree and all that stuff before we go.... Sorry I have kinda lost the Christmasy spirit....I have been playing Santa for 28 years and ready for someone else to do it....

I am sooooo excited about the cruise especially now that I know real people that are going on it too!!!

Thanks! I am glad that I'm not the only one! My Mom laughed at me on the phone tonight when I told her that I wanted to get my Christmas shopping done so I could start concentrating on the trip. What great holiday spirit I have! It will come back, I hope.... I'm not ready to give up playing Santa just yet, especially after having a talk with my DS (9) about Santa tonight.

Since this thread has become so active recently, figured I'd let you all know that I'll be spending a week away from my computer, so you won't see any updates on the FE list until roughly November 7th. I have added a link in my signature to the post that has the list of participants that is updated as I get requests to be added. Hope you all have a great week!

I also wanted to apologize here--I wasn't trying to step on any toes, but was trying to share a technique that was helping me visualize exactly what was going on, FE-wise.

I wasn't trying to be rude/snarky in the post, the main issue was that the post you made didn't have an up-to-date person count, so some others were getting confused as well. Now we don't all have to go back to Page 2 to get the FE list...just try to find a post of mine and it'll take you right there!

Excited that I have the day off, and I can catch up on all of these posts!

Just read that the Palo price is going up on the Magic starting with our cruise. In Passporter's newsletter, it says brunch and dinner will go up to $20 per person and high tea will be $10.

Im not enough of a food lover to pay extra for a meal when I can get my meals for free....

We were thinking of doing a brunch, but since it's our first cruise, wemight just skip it.

We are trying brunch for the first time next week. I can report back on what we thought, if you'd like.

We'll deffinatly have full report about Palo...we went to dinner there on the Wonder on our 2nd cruise (3-night, no Brunch/Tea offered), and now we'll be doing Dinner, Brunch, and Tea. Brunch sounds really nice, but I think if I was planning a frist cruise again, I would be fine with what we did and skipping the Palo dinner (it's nice to see all of the rotational & special menus). There's so much to take in and I just can't believe it's so close (not just the cruise I'm about to go on, but the Jan one is getting pretty close, too!!!).

WE did brunch on our cruise a couple of years ago. It was our one truley alone indulgence. At that time, it was only $10 per person. I don't remember it being super spectacular and at $20 a person, I don't know that I will do it again! We go to brunch at the officer's club here in DC and the view is spectacular, the food pretty good, and we only pay $25 so I just can't see paying for a brunch on the ship where food is included! I guess I am just not that into food!! I think I would be just as happy going to the adults only pool and getting a drink at a table for two for our alone time! Plus $40 will buy at least a couple of mojitos.....
