The later time works much better for us. Need time to enjoy lunch and make additional freaked( spa and Palo) if available.

Hi all! We are getting close to the FE cut-off date. Since there has been so little activity on this cruise meet thread, I just wonder if anyone else will even join. I was thinking about moving the cut-off date to the end of this week. How does that sound to everyone? It will help me with my gifts, since it takes a bit of time for me to complete each one.

Also, I was thinking about just emailing the list out to each person. If you could please pm me the email address you would like it sent to, I will send them out after the cut-off date. I will also have extra printed out at the meet on the ship that first day.

Ilene, I know you have listed four staterooms in your party. Are all of those folks participating in the FE? I have them listed now, but want to make sure that they actually want to participate. For instance, there are two other staterooms in our party who are not participating in the FE, but will be there for the meet on the first day. Just let me know so I can be sure that the list reflects their preference. Thanks!

That's all for now.... getting closer......

Sounds good to me! I was also going to ask - do we have everyone's names on the list? I usually do personalized items so need at least first names (although last names would be great too)

I'll PM you my email info.

Can't believe how close it's getting!

I am ok with making the cut off when ever.... thanks for your work on this Deb!

Sounds good to me as well. I still have to book hotels and train and it keeps creeping up on me.

40 days! I'm so excited. We changed around our excursions a little. We are now booked for rail & hike in Skagway, Helicopter to Glacier in Juneau, Kayak in Kethikan, and local tour in Victoria. I'm so excited. We have our hotel set for before & after. We'll arrive in Seattle on Friday and will stay until the day after we debark again. Looking forward to meeting you all.

We get into Seattle Saturday evening and will stay until the day after! We are at the Sheraton Seattle -

 

[DisFanInCO]

We're getting in on Saturday night but still not sure where we staying. Trying to balance being close to the port and visiting our friends who are out in Issaquah. Such tough decisions

Did you book the Sheraton through Disney? Just wondering if rates are different through them as opposed to what's available online.

We did book the Sheraton through Disney as well as the transporation from airpor to hotel then to port on embarkation day; and then on the return it will be port to hotel and next day to the airport. That way I don't have to think about NOTHING... just where to eat and what to see while in Seattle...

 

[debc1212]

I am waiting on some info from some of you. If you haven't pm'd me your email address, please do so. Thanks!

My family is flying into Seattle Thursday evening. There is so much to do around Seattle that we are having a hard time deciding what we want to do for those days before the cruise. We will have my MIL and SIL with use (though they choose not to participate in the FE). We are staying at the Marriott.

I am trying to decide how best to pack my FE stuff. The flying thing is messing me up. I think I can fit it all in a small carry-on bag. What are you guys doing with your FE gifts?

And, by the way, has anyone started packing yet?????

 

[IleneF]

We are getting in Sat early but staying with family. Got my cruise docstoday -Yipee!

 

[queenbee99]

Where are you staying? Would you mind sharing along with the rate? That is on my to do list this weekend.

Yippie!! i checked the mail today and got a WONDERfull surprise the offical cruise documents were there! I tell you i was on !
It's almost just a month away, i'm already packing..kinda..i'm at least picking my clothes out for the trip. If there's any Twilight fans out there i bet your going to love my formal night dress!
Looking over the doucments and everything is there..sweet! Our Palo reservations, were doing Palo brunch the first day and 11:00, and our last night were going to have dinner at Palo at 8:30.
and our 2 excursions are there, Awesome! Weve been to alaska before so for Skagway were just going to kick it and go shopping. In Juneau were doing the whale whatching and wildlife quest and Kitchean were doing the Lumberjack show, disney exlusive and 7:30 am..eww! oh well! more time for shopping!!
Anyway, just realy excited to hand out my cute little FE gifts to everyone.
I can't wait!! this is going to be so much fun!!

I noticed on my paperwork it says ashore on the Tracey Arm day. I thought we didn't get off the boat that day? Anyone know? Thanks!

Hey Ilene - I know your cabin is doing the FE... but is the other 3. I really need to have that clarified as that can change the counts on the gifts... and i am trying to figure the packing thing out....

Also - I think the Sheraton was $220 a night... but can't recall.

We got our Cruise docs on Saturday. I seen too that is have 3 hours ashore on the Tracy Arm day - and that made me scratch head.... I thought it was just a sail through.

 

[IleneF]

YES! All four of our cabins are doing the FE, we've had great fun making and designing them...we're all very excited!

 

[queenbee99]

Do we know yet how many cabins are Participating?
