Not sure if it's been mentioned - but when / where are we meeting up on board?
I don't think we have planned anything pre-cruise either ...

Hey Sean! Check Amanda's post on page 1, but I *think* we're meeting at 3 in a lounge (Promenade?).... Maybe I should read that post again.

We're getting to town on Friday and staying at the Radisson. I'm not sure what time we'll get there, since we're driving down, but we'll likely be out of our room, letting the kids burn off some energy. Where are you staying?

Getting close!!!

Hi gang!

We are trying to book a Scavenger Hunt around Key West with Electric Cars through (www)ShoreTrips(.com) (Elizabeth) and we need a minimum of 12 to make it happen. We are only 4. If you'd like to do this, please reserve with ShoreTrips and let them know you are with Denise. We'd love to work this out. Looks like it will be a blast and is a neat way for a family or couple to explore Key West.

The company is flexible on start time so they will start whenever we all arrive to Key West.

[5 days to go!

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the "Magic" al suprises in our FE! We had so much fun with it and I cannot believe all the wonderful suprises we got!

Thank you absyBabsy for setting up the FE list and the cruise meet - my kids found some good buddies and it was so nice seeing people I knew and talking with you around the ship! Thank you Kniesj for the laynards - I didn't know how handy they we would be, but I am so greatful we had them on the cruise and now as a momento.

Hope to see some of you on a fuure cruise - we don't have definate plans yet (but have a "dummy" cruise booked - my kids keep saying, "I don't want to be on the "Dummy" cruise, I want the the "Smart" people cruise! " I keep telling them we ARE smart by booking the "Dummy" cruise - but they don't quite get it!) I am hoping for an Eastern Caribbean for our next trip - we'll see what Disney schedules for the rest of 2012 and 2013.

Take Care everyone and keep in touch!
Cathy

I too would like to thank everyone for all of the FE goodies. The girls really enjoyed delivering and receiving them. You all are so talented and creative!

Thank you Absybabsy for organizing the meet, the FE exchange, and for the spread sheet!

We had a wonderful cruise and hope you all did as well.

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a safe trip home -- nursetink, we were thinking about you when we read about the nasty weather in Georgia.

Thanks to all for the amazing FE gifts. You are a talented bunch indeed! AbsyBabsy, I've already been told to find out exactly when you're travelling next. (But I doubt we can make next weekend on the Dream, you lucky duck!)

And thanks for your company and generous natures - it was a pleasure meeting as many of you as we could. DD made a lot of friends which made this a very special cruise for her, and for us! I loved being in Palo with so many Dis friends -- not to mention having fun that final night in Rockin' Bar D.

We have rebooked on the Magic Eastern for March 10, and I know Dundasdad (and Dundasmom!) will be onboard. We're already counting down the weeks!

Best to you all

It was great meeting and hanging with your family. We are going the week after you in March (perhaps - I may move it - still debating) Then we are on the Fantasy 6/2/12 - love to have you with us!

The girls had such a good time - I will upload a video on my youtube (if okay with you since your daughter is in it).

You are very welcome. It was great organizing with such a great group of folks. Ya'll made the cruise extra special!

Hi gang, I just wanted to give everyone who participated in the FE's a BIG THANK YOU I loved the gift. When I returned I put most of the gifts (those I had not yet eaten or used on board) in a box. Well, I just went through the box and there is so much great stuff. Just to name a few of my favorites

The lovely scarf
big red handmade mickey ear pot holders
survival kits
magnets and clips
frames and hat
cards and candy
music CD with music for my age (I am not telling)
and I loved the message board left on my door.

It was so much fun getting back to my room. I hope I hit every room - I got a little confused during my rounds - perhaps it was the drink of the day? I hope everyone got the luggage tags and Florida pink flamingo. The girls loved making the scrapbooks and we all had fun picking out the songs for the CD.

Another big thanks to the Disers who came to the talent show and cheered Abs and Jabs on!

I also loved spending the sail away party and the pub night with my disers!!!!

We are booked for the Fantasy 6/2/12 and we also booked for March 2012 but we are debating about going on 2-7 night cruises in the same year. We really need a trip home to England to visit family. We are going to wait until we go on the Dream to decide which one to keep. We have disers from this cruise and one of our prior cruises on the 6/2/12 so I will more likely keep that one (plus I got a great deal)

Well, I am off to bed but wanted to let ya'll know how much we all appreciated everything. Our newbie (Jas) was somewhat overwhelmed by all the gifts and came home with them stuffed in a new bag. Her mother thought I bought them all and told me off!

Your forever Diser and Orlando buddy,
Amanda
