Hey Marcy, Do you happen to hang out at scrapshare?

I do not, but I am a HUGE scrapbooking geek! I already pulled out my Cricut and my Disney cartridge to start thinking about my door sign of the day. I don't know if I'll have time to top my twice daily door signs from our New year's cruise, but I'll sure try!

 

[cinderella97]

Thanks!

I think its time for me to go to bed!!! Good night all!

I already pulled out my Cricut and my Disney cartridge to start thinking about my door sign of the day.

You are so lucky. That seems like such a neat tool to play with. Happy sign making.

Hey, I just spent the day in Manawalcan? at a soccer tournament, is that near you?? Regarding seasickness, I am the worst but have never been sick on DCL, and the worst could be the sea days heading out but maybe not in July, so worries!!

Manalapan maybe???? That is about 40 miles south...exit 123 on Garden State Pkwy.

You from Jersey? What Exit? lol

2 words for you "Seasick patch" you need a prescription in the US, but over the counter in the Great White North if you have any friends from there coming.

Agenda for meet.......[Sunday at Studio Sea at 12:15pm]

1) Grab bags
2) Group Picture
3) Updated FE list?
4) Chat..........ok, so how will we identify ourselves.......is there some way we can have our names to identify us? Who has done this before......suggestions??

No cruise meet till the shrimp runs out at Topsiders!!

 

[31Buzz]

If any of you are concerned about seasickness, which you REALLY shouldn't be, get the seasick patch thru you r doc or over the counter if you are in Canada or have a friend in Canada. You can also get tylenol with codeine OTC up there too. I miss Canada

We lived in Alberta in 2000-2001 I agree, OTC medications are very different from the US. I still am amused over Tylenol PM with two separate pills - the sleep aid and the Tylenol.. At the time, Allegra and Claritin were still prescription in the US, so OTC Allegra was wonderful!

I never thought I would be updating the list this close to sail time.

Hi guys -- I wanted to introduce myself because I just booked the July 18 cruise today. Whoo hoo! We're in a GTY Cat 6 -- it's me, my dh and my 2 dds, ages 9 and 6.

I won't be on the boards much because of work over the next 3 weeks, but if you have any cruising questions or Orlando questions, please don't hesitate to PM me. We live about 45 minutes from Port Canaveral and 40 minutes from Disney, so we're pretty saavy about all things Mouse!

I hope to run into some of you -- my dd1 already pulled her lime green t-shirts out today in advance of the cruise!

Welcome to the group!! See you in 3 weeks!!

Manalapan maybe???? That is about 40 miles south...exit 123 on Garden State Pkwy.

My DD had a soccer tournament..........my parents have a place in Brigantine, but we live in Bucks County, PA......

Hey Marcy, here's our Fish Extender list.......if you're interested sign on soon b/c we're stopping it on July 1st.........welcome aboard!!!

 

[♥sassy♥tink♥]

Anybody else feel like 3 weeks is FAST approaching.... I am VERY HAPPY, but feel really behind too! It will all come together... always does! I just think "where will I be on July 18th" when the stress settles in .... HAPPY PACKING EVERYBODY!!

 

[MarcyIn Florida]

No cruise meet till the shrimp runs out at Topsiders!!

That will be 12 minutes after my kids get there on Saturday, so you should be safe with a Sunday meet.

 

[MarcyIn Florida]

Hey Marcy, here's our Fish Extender list.......if you're interested sign on soon b/c we're stopping it on July 1st.........welcome aboard!!!

Yes, yes, yes! Thanks for the reminder!

Just for my own clarity, we make our own FEs and then bring on stuff to put in others' FEs?

 

[Dizzyworld]

Agenda for meet.......[Sunday at Studio Sea at 12:15pm]

1) Grab bags
2) Group Picture
3) Updated FE list?
4) Chat..........ok, so how will we identify ourselves.......is there some way we can have our names to identify us? Who has done this before......suggestions??

I've made name tags for our family that we pin to our lanyards. The kids only use them until after the Dis Meet.

We changed them this year to include the group's logo. Last year we had name tags that had the DCL logo on them. The first day we had a bunch of people coming up to us asking questions about the ship.They thought we worked there.

 

[noahsmom]

Yes, yes, yes! Thanks for the reminder!

Just for my own clarity, we make our own FEs and then bring on stuff to put in others' FEs?

Yes that is correct. We currently have 37 families participating in the FE exchange. If you are interested let me know and I can add you to the list. Cut off to be added is July 1st.

Send me a PM with the following information: stateroom # (if known), names of everyone in your party plus ages of the kids.

Kelli

 

[noahsmom]

Noah and I picked 15 lbs of strawberries this morning. Now I'm making Jam. So far I've made 4 batches, I have enough sure jell for 6 batches and enough strawberries for 18 batches.

 

[Macavity]

No cruise meet till the shrimp runs out at Topsiders!!

DD says to tell you that if you eat too much at topsiders you won't have any room for dinner....
