March 14, '10 "Wonder"ful cruise!!

[prissy_1975]

Okay, as a new member of this board (and only a couple weeks till me cruise ) I am going to make FE's for my cabin as well as for the family we are going with but wasn't sure how I sign up with the group to make sure we have enough stuff to give out and to make sure our girls will also receive. I think the girls will have so much fun going around dropping stuff off. I saw somewhere where it said that I should "bump" or "subscribe" to get on the list .....can someone please help.

I had already begun making magnets but wasn't sure what else to do. Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Please help this completely lost DIS'er - also, will this group meet up on the cruise? how do I find out.

HEY! welcome from one Texan to another!

I'm coordinating the fish extender exchange. I'm not sure if you have enough posts yet to send/receive PMs (I think you have to have 10 posts - so post something real quick - it can be a countdown, even!) I'll add your family to the list. I'll need the names of people in your group and your cabin number. After you've reached 10 posts (I think you're close, right?), PM me the information and I'll revise the list and send it out!

I'm not sure if we're planning to have a meet at some point. I really hope so - if for nothing else than to take a group pic. Is someone coordinating this? Should we just set a time and place?

Okay, will do.

So what does it mean to "bump"? I have seen this on some posts and not sure what its purpose was.

Basically, whenever you post a reply to a thread, the thread will go back to the first page of that forum. So, if someone is hoping for a response to a thread that has fallen to pages that may not be seen, it is common to simply type "bump" as a response to "bump" the thread back to the first page of the forum so that it will, hopefully, get more attention and have a question answered.

Personally, I subscribe to threads that I want to follow so that I won't have to dig through forums to find the thread I'm looking for. It's very helpful to me.

Welcome prissy.
Hope you have a safe drive and a chance for some well-deserved relaxation on this trip.
I too am feeling super stressed. Just the demands of work and everyday life!!
My biggest wish is that the weather warms up for this trip. I am also hoping it is NOT raining for our sail away party.
I have an obsession with checking the Florida extended forecast now that our date shows up.
Oh well--better than the snow and cold here.
I finished my magnets!! So, cool. That was fun.
I have the kids pirate costumes ready and DH and I have pirate accessories.
My DS has had several eye surgeries and has to wear a patch periodically. He is not impressed. So, pirate night it will be good for him to see that people want to dress up and wear a patch. He is a trooper. At our last specialist appt. we learned that the right eye is impaired ("blind") BUT he has compensated well. I am so proud of him.
Handed in my report cards today. Glad those are done!
Hope everyone's packing and final planning is going smooth.
My parents arrived yesterday at Cocoa Beach. So that means my luggage has officially arrived!! (they are not cruising)
Is 11:30 am a good time to arrive at the terminal??

 

[Louiepipbgeeco]

Forgot to ask---DO I need beach towels?? or do they provide these pool side?? What about at Castaway Cay??
IS the water safe to drink?? or should I bring bottled water??
