[scrapycruiser]

I am working on my FE so if anyone is interested this is the current male/female breakdown participating in the exchange. This number may change if more families join us:

Men - 13
Women - 21

Children under 18
Girls - 8
Boys 7

17 cabins in total!

Thanks !
I have the same totals.
Stateroom # 6156, 2 adult females : Cindy & Deloris ( my SIL & MIL )

Have finished my homemade FE's and made 3 extra .
Is the cut-off Feb 1 or Feb 6 ?

We're getting close...can't wait !!

Hey maybe I've missed it but is there a DISmeet scheduled yet for this cruise? I'd really like a friendly face or six in the crowd . . .

I haven't seen any mention of a DisMeet. It would be fun to see each other, even for a brief moment.

Since we are not required to bring our life jackets to the safety drill, we could meet prior to the drill at the Bon Voyage Bar on Deck 3 around 3:30 ???
What does everyone think, any other suggestions ?

Great. I had Cindy and Deloris as 2 adult female. I think the cut off is Feb 6 - one month from the date.

I am still trying to get all materials. The one item I thought would be the easiest to find, has become the most difficult but I am getting there!

I think meeting prior to the drill is a great idea!

Maybe we can put something on that identifies us. On my last cruise we had something green so we could recognize each other. I was going to make cruise t-shirt for my family but I am meeting some resistance

I plan to wear a lime green Tee.
Home Depot has Mickey shaped
lime green paint sample cards
that some get, laminate, punch
a hole in it and put it on their
landyard. Or you can make a
small lime green ribbon

I may wear a lime green tee as well. The rest of my family maybe not but I think if we all have something lime green, we will be able to identify each other at the bon voyage lounge.

I'm still not clear about the 4-night dining rotation. Which restaurant is repeated ? I've read different answers.

 

[tdizzle]

HA !! Just remembered I have a lime green tank top!! Problem solved identity confirmed adventure awaits!!!!!

Still not sure. I am hoping at this point it is the same restaurant on the 3rd and 4th day because I made reservations for Palo on the 3rd night. I think we will know by tonight when all those on the MV start reporting.

Good Morning Everyone,
I have updated the FE Exchange Please go to post #184 on page 13 to see the list. I still need a few cabin numbers in order to complete the list. I personally think the cut off date should be today since we have so many cabins participating....What is your opinion????????

Cindy

PS Hey scrapycruiser, I love the idea of the lime green mickey heads

Hi, We are new to the FE exchange and are really excited to contribute! Not sure on one thing though, do we bring something for the stateroom as a whole or something for each person in the room? Thanks!

Hi !
You can do whatever you want. I like to make my FE, and I make 1 for each cabin and then give some inexpensive things to the kids. With a small group, like we have, I buy things according to age & gender. I get things from Oriental Trader, or from the $ rack at Michaels or Target. I would guess, including the materials for my cabin homemade FE and the kids I have spent about $75.

But to keep the price down and save on suitcase space ( I refuse to pay for an extra suitcase) 1 gift per cabin is totally fine ! I just get carried away...just ask my husband !!

Hope this helps !
See you soon !!
