[Maryrn11168]

Patty (ptea) Great news!! Hope your grandmother feels better!!

Pattiwig, Hope you have a safe journey!! and very little traffic on I-95!!

To everyone starting their journey: Have a safe trip and see you on Saturday!! I'll be the one with a drink in my hand!! Maybe more than one drink!!

I am hoping to have almost everything packed tonight. Dry cleaning will not be ready until tomorrow, so the garment bag will wait until tom.

I couldn't resist checking in one last time!! Does anyone know if we have to tender at any of the ports?

 

[LV Disney Fan(atic)]

No, no tendering at any of our ports.

We are leaving in the morning also for our long flight. Can't wait for Saturday!!

 

[Pattiwig]

Leaving in about 2 hours for the LONG drive. But at least it is finally here. See ya real soon!

 

[Maryrn11168]

Have a safe trip!! I can not believe we leave tomorrow!!

 

[Maryrn11168]

Welcome home everyone!!

We had a great trip...now comes the hard part: laundry and recovering from sleep deprivation!

Thanks to all for the great FE gifts...It was such fun for everyone to see what was in those pockets each day. The kids and I loved it!

It was great getting to know Dana, Holly, Emma, and Hannah from AZ on our day at Coki Beach. I'm so sorry that I completely spaced-out the meeting in the Promenade lounge on Saturday at 3:00 to meet others. It was in my brain earlier that day, but in the excitement, somehow 4:30 arrived before I remembered!

I hope everyone had as great of a trip as we did. Is anyone planning to write a trip report??

Patti I.

Hi everyone, we arrived at 11 pm last night. We had such a wonderful time! Thank you to everyone for the great FE gifts, everyone was so creative. It was fun getting surprises everyday. Getting back to reality is going to be tough.

Dany, sorry we never got to meet, thank you for putting this thread and the FE together.

Mary, it was great putting a face to the name.

Cruisin Castaways, we loved having breakfast with you and your lovely family, hope to keep in touch here on the board.

East Islip crew - welcome home, it was fun meeting you all.

Thank you so much for all of the wonderful and creative FE gifts!!! We feel really bad since the FE gifts we passed out consisted of little zip locks with candy We were totally shocked on how creative everyone got and what everyone passed out but we know now what to expect the next time! I'm already thinking about what we'll be passing out! But thank you guys so much for everything! It was great We had a totally awesome trip! The Bernard's tour was wonderful! Thanks for putting that together! We're looking on planning our next cruise aboard Disney's Dream next year Anyone else already planning the next trip, LOL!

Hi, everyone -

It is so hard being back at work today; the body is here but my mind is still lounging on the beach at Castaway Cay! We had such a great time. I’m sorry I didn’t get to meet everyone. I had planned on going to the meet, but I don’t know if it was the bonine I took Saturday morning or just the stress of getting ready for the trip that finally caught up to me, but I laid down for “just a few minutes” once our staterooms were ready and next thing I knew it was time for the lifeboat drill!

Thanks to everyone for all the great FE gifts! It was so much fun checking the FE everyday. JeffAmyCole, you don’t need to feel at all bad about your FE gift – the candy was greatly appreciated! As were all the other gifts, no matter how big or small.

We rebooked on board for a “fake” 2011 date to take advantage of the discount and OBC but we’ll end up moving it since we really want to do a 7 day on one of the new ships. We have a Western Caribbean planned on the Carnival Dream for next April which I’m sure we’ll enjoy but it won’t be as great as Disney. Keeping my fingers crossed for 2012!

Hi!

I am going to Disney World in about 3 weeks. I just wanted to know if it's Spring break the week of April 25th in the States?

Thanks

There are many different weeks for spring break in the states. It varies by state, school, religious holiday, But I think they are all finished by the end of April. Some colleges are actually done for the year and kids are going on school end vacations! Hope this helps. It should not be over crowded at that time of year.

 

[Maryrn11168]

Thanks to everyone for the FE gifts!!! Between all the candy and now our Easter candy I'm done with chocolate for a while!!! The generosity and thoughtful gifts were amazing!! Had a great time on the Bernard's tour (even though we were late!! LOL!! funny story for later!!)

I am also sorry about missing the Dismeet. My kids got stuff delivered to the room they "had" to open and some make a wish details that I had to take care of. I hope you all had fun!!

Did we have the best weather ever!!! Not even an overcast day!! I can't believe it's over!!! We are booked for a 5 day 'double dip' on the dream for Aug '11. WooHoo!!!!

Thanks everyone for the FE gifts. It added much to the trip.

 

[our2disneygirls]

Hi everyone! Sorry for the late reply but we wanted to also express our thanks to everyone we met! We loved the FE gifts and were also really impressed with the creativity of many of them. We also had a great time with everyone we met.

We're already booked for Spring Break next year on the Wonder going to Mexico. I know the Bishops are headed to Alaska, but maybe we'll see some of you again. Til we meet again!

 

[FirstTimeDC]

We made it home. We had a great cruise, as well. We didn't do the FE. Sounds fun though. If anyone is interested I did write a trip report with tons of pictures on the trip report board. It was fun reliving it all!

 

[Pattiwig]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone who was on this trip has pictures from the adult scavenger hunt on the first night, in Rockin D Bar. It was followed by Match Your Mate. My son participated, but I didn't go, so I have no pictures. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
