July 28, 2012- MAGIC- NYC TO BAHAMAS

[Happy Goofy]

Day one would be best because by day two usually kids are already signed up for clubs and adults are at the pool or attending one of the other programs.

I'm back from my computer virus issue. Apparently, the info on the hard drive was not salvageable and I am starting from scratch. I just realized now that my door magnets were on there... oh boy, something else to add to the to-do list. We had so much time, and now in two weeks, we will be in NYC! So much to do, so excited and can't wait to meet everyone!

Ready to go

For first time cruisers if you are going to decorate your door you need to use magnets or magnatic tape to put things up. NO masking or scotch tape etc is allowed as they tend to pull the paint off the door. We have seen this happen and the people had to pay for the damage.

Just recently found the Disney discussion boards and have learned so much info I never knew existed such as being able to call a number and find out the movies showing on our cruise and decorating the doors. This will be my second Disney cruise and I am travelling with my brother's family who have been on five previous Disney cruises but have never decorated their doors. We will be decorating it this time (i immediately bought lots of magnets). I made a fish extender,and even though we won't be exchanging with others, I thought it would be nice to give little gifts to my nieces and nephew. The whole door decorating and FE idea is so cute. Now that I know about this aspect to the Disney cruise culture, I am hoping to do another Disney cruise soon so I can participate with others next time.

Welcome you are more than welcome to join us at our meet and greet 3pm promenade lounge sail day.

One week from today! Just found out yesterday that DH has a contact from work who may be able to get us company seats to the Yankees game on Friday night, so we may be changing some plans this week.

Also, DD was cleaning her room this week and found a book of WDW treasure hunts that we bought for a prior trip to the the World, and found that it includes the cruise ships as well as the parks. In the interest of keeping the scheduling to a minimum, I thought it would be too crazy to plan this as a group event. However, I am willing to make copies and leave for anyone interested on your stateroom fish the first sea day. I'll circle back the night before the last sea day with the answers so you can see how you did (and go back and look at them). Either post here, or send me a PM with your cabin number. The book is a few years old, so there may be a few out of date questions, but for the most part, I think they will still be valid. I can also leave 2 per cabin so you can still make it competitive within your family group (boys vs girls, parents vs kids, parent/child vs parent/child, etc). Let me know if you are interested.

Does anyone know if the kids clubs take children the morning of the 5K? Will they bring them to the island?

 

[Happy Goofy]

I think I have the same book. Is it a Passporter Book Treasure Hunt? We used it a few years ago at the park and had a great time with it. We even had some cast members looking for things. We got to meet the authors of it and I emailed Passporter last year to get another book but they are out of print so take good care of that book. They said they were thinking of coming out with a newer version but I don't know if they have. I will have to try and find mine and bring it.
