[KarlaG4Kids]

Bags are in the car, kids are giggling and can't go to sleep, everything is ready. 6 hours to go....and I'm sure I won't be able to sleep either!

 

[KarlaG4Kids]

Were here!

 

[Scoobypop]

We're here! All checked in at Animal Kingdom and hanging out at Uzima Pool having cocktails, swimming and taking in the sun. Boarding the Disney Dream tomorrow for our back to back cruise. See you all on board Thursday!

I'm so jealous. It seems that everyone has started their vacations early. I'm making a mental note for next time....Start the party early

Yes, even just a day early, you can just relax and enjoy knowing all the main travel is behind you and now it's all relaxing and smooth sailing ahead!! (oh-and a couple of pre-cruise Captains Mai Tais!)

I'm glad you are relaxing...we sure aren't! Up at 3:45 am, on the plane for the trip to Orlando, checked in the resort and off to Epcot by 1:30. Now back to the resort to crash...it's 11:00pm. But it was a fantastic day!

Awesome Day today spent 11 hours walking Epcot, lots of things to do and best part the kiddo enjoyed every minute of it!

Tomorrow we tackle Magic Kingdom for Mothers Day!

Hope everyone is ready to cruise we are having an even harder time not talking about it and spoiling the surprise.

 

[OregonDisneyDreamer]

In 72 hours we will all be on the Dream dining or watching the show!!!!

 

[onecoolpilot]

I just realized that we have not set up a place/time to meet once onboard, unless I missed it. Any ideas?

 

[magicmommy]

We are at AKV waiting to board our bus to the port. See ya real soon!

 

[KarlaG4Kids]

Well Fellow cruisers, I hope your trip was as wonderful as ours was. Wasn't that t storm at sea last night pretty cool!!! Thanks for all of the neat FE gifts. It sure made for a fun trip. Safe travels home to all of you!

 

[allonte]

We're back home We had a BALL though! Thank you soo sooo sooo soo much for the FE gifts. You are so awesomely creative and talented. Farrah loved coming to the door and finding the gifts. She also had a great time delivering. Awesome!!

We are home, what a great time we had on the cruise. Thank you for the wonderful fish extender gifts. Everyone was so creative, it was a great surprise to come back to our room and find them.

 

[onecoolpilot]

Whew! We finally made it home as well. I'm sad that we didn't get to meet everyone from our group, but it seemed like all we did was run around trying to see/do as much as possible. Samantha had a blast delivering and receiving the FE gifts. We were able to eat dinner with some cool people (snsfrady's family, and gymstarr and her daughter) and had a great time there too. I think I passed by Chris and Rob at shutters Sat night, but I wasn't sure and didn't want to interrupt your conversation. Next time I'll make sure to meet everyone in our group. I also saw a couple of FE's hanging on doors that weren't on our list, so we dropped some candy in those each night too.

I wish we were still there. We rebooked while onboard, but have not settled on a date yet. I know it will be a 7 day for sure. Maybe well get to meet up again.

That's an awesome way to spread pixie dust!

Just back today from a fantastic vacation, Back to Back cruises, then 3 great days at WDW. Just wanted to say Thank You to all for the wonderful FE gifts. It was quite fun, but I have to admit, with the size of the ship, delivering the gifts was a more daunting task than the Magic and Wonder, even with only a handful of FE's! Sounds like everyone else had just as much fun. Sorry I didn't get to meet as many of you as we would have liked, but as it's been mentioned, the ship is SO big with SO much going on.

Jeff, that's so funny that you passed us, I actually think I saw you and said to Rob, "I think that's onecoolpilot", but he didn't think so. Well, until next time, thank you all again!

Hi Everyone,

I have a big favor to ask, in my rush to get everything packed and ready I forgot to take pictures of the gifts we made and handed out. I was wondering if someone could maybe take a few pictures and send them to me.

They were the Mickey Mouse drawstring bag, pillowcase

Thanks,
Kristie

I want to thank everyone in our FE exchange for the fantastic gifts every night
We had a great time delivering the gifts and seeing all the doors and FE. It was a magical first Disney cruise. Thanks Kristie for the wonderful gift you made. I will think of our first cruise every time I use them.

Thanks again to everyone and I hope we "meet" again on another Disney cruise.

 

[onecoolwife]

Thanks for posting the picture of the bag!!

We loved receiving all our gifts as much as giving them. We were going through it all tonight (last suitcase to unpack) and WOW all the goodies covered half my king size bed. We will always have lots of goodies around the house to remind us of this wonderful trip thanks to everyone's creativeness!
