July 7, 2013 - 4 Night Bahamian Cruise - Disney Dream

[English Channel]

This time next week, we'll be sailing

I think my family was scheduled to give out our gifts on July 9, but we will be giving ours away the first day or so of the cruise. We want everyone to have the opportunity to use them. Also, it doesn't matter to us when we receive other gifts. So, please don't think we will be upset it you don't pass it out on you scheduled day.

 

[English Channel]

Do what you want. It's a vacation. Slooow down and relax.

We will probably end up giving out our gifts on the first day too....it will allow us to explore the ship as this is our first cruise.

Hello, this will be our first Disney cruise, and were supper excited. Just found out about the fish finder thing, and would like to join the fun if possible. I would like just for my daughter to join the fun, she is 8, and loves giving gifts. If someone could please let me know either way would be great. And also if it is possible to join how do we go about finding out how many people will be participating.

Thanks

Afternoon;

I believe it would be too late to enter the FE Exchange. Originally we had all agreed that June 15th would be the last day and then someone wanted to take part and we had all made an exception. However, it is only 6 days until the cruise and we have families who are coming in from overseas for the cruise and they have already created their FE gifts based on the previous numbers.

I have plenty of extra FE gifts to give so I could always give you one and you could give it to your daughter if you like--I will be in room 2006 with my daughter so stop by sometime and I will be glad to give you the little gifts we made.....but I am pretty sure it is too late as other families are traveling to Orlando for the cruise and also coming in from out of the country for the cruise so the numbers they had for gifts are pretty much set in stone from what I believe.

Others can chime in on what they have going if I am incorrect.....you never know....some might have made extras like I did....I really could not speak for others.

We are having an awesome time in the USA so far I should have enough gifts for the extra room. If you give us your room number I will put a gift in your fish extender

Oh yeah if anyone is interested this is what we have been up to so far.

My friend Laura and I have been enjoying Vegas while my husband enjoys his transformers....sigh

 

[RGLakatos]

Since our new friends have enough FE Gifts for the other party interested.....if I could get the room number as well we can drop a couple FE Gifts in your Fish Extender too!!

I wasn't sure they would have extras since they came in from another country but since they do I guess we can add you to the list and see if anyone else has extra FE gifts to go around.... =)

Welcome to the group!!!

Finalizing travel plans these next two days. We plan to catch a Tampa Bay Rays game the night before sailing. After we get back, we're going to spend a few days at Universal. Also, we just found out that a family friend in the minor league got called up to the Yankee team stationed in Tampa, so we plan to watch one of his games before we head back home. All in all, it will be a packed 10 days for us. Can't wait to get started!!!

 

[JacksonFamily]

Fine with us, we have enough! If you want the whole experience there are 14 adults and 7 children in our group. A few pages back you will find the list of room numbers and number of members in each room. We had a schedule of when to deliver goodies, but I think everyone is wanting to enjoy their cruise and will probably pass them out when they have the time. Welcome and I don't know for sure but I would bet most people in the group have extras to give away.

We had prepared an extra just in case the other family responded, so we are ok with adding one. Just post your stateroom number so we can include you.

Morning....


Just wanted to let everyone know that I have a website I will be uploading various images from our Disney cruise.

My daughter and I recently started taking pictures together as a daddy-daughter hobby....so we decided to create a website with our images from various trips etc. There isn't much there but will be in the coming months as we have several trips planned.

The site is www.photoabsolute.com

If you see any inconsistencies in the site from page to page let me know through the contact form....it was a bit elaborate to code....LOL.

 

[Melgy79]

Oh great!!!! Thankyou all so much. We started making gifts last night, bc she wanted to give them even if it was to late for her to receive. She is going to be SUPER excited.

We are booked for room #10044
Childs Name - Allie - 8 years old

Please let me know if i need to know anything special!!
Cant wait

 

[sleepydog25]

RG, thanks for taking up the slack. Wedding prep and family gatherings have left precious little time for me to get on here. Further, internet connection at VWL and Disney has been dreadful. Hope this posts, actually. We're in for extra gifts and presenting them whenever. Welcome Melgy79 and family!

 

[RGLakatos]

No problem.....I'm sure your very busy with wedding plans and traveling.

Should be a great time for all to be had on the cruise....I'm really looking to get away from clinical rounds for a few days and spend some time relaxing and having fun with my daughter.

Between clinical rounds, patients, officiating various levels of soccer and research I really need a break!!

See you guys Sunday!!!!

Wedding ceremony over (yesterday), and we've had a blast these past few days. We're in the concierge level in the Lodge, so our internet connection is much better, just little time to touch bases. Still planning to meet at 2 p.m. at Vista Cafe tomorrow. Hard to believe it's just one sleep until the cruise! Thanks again for picking up the slack. Off to see Wishes from our balcony!!

 

[bethybobs]

Thank you to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Heng and I had the most amazing time on the cruise. We loved all the gifts and I hope you enjoyed ours too. We are now in sunny Key West and already wish our holiday (vacation) would never end. Hope everyone got home safely.
