May 2, 2009~~~Magical MAYniacs!~~~ 7 day Western....Updated, April 3,2009!!

reposting this, trying to keep it current on the last page til the 4th!

Ok....so as I see it we have a few things to think about. I think it is VERY important to make sure that everyone in this thread is included and that no one feels left out or left behind because they haven't been on the thread for awhile. It would be nice if everyone on the thread could give their input, so I am posting this here and then on the first page of the thread ( I will continue to post important info etc. on the first post in case it is difficult to find in the thread, especially as it grows) so that everyone can vote or have input etc.

Please vote on: (voting begins July 22....ends August 4th)

Cruise meet on first day- Promenade Lounge Do you want 2:00 or 2:30??

Fish Extenders- Information on what a fish extender is, is provided below) Who would like to participate, and how many people in your stateroom?? (list to be tabulated at later date if we have enough people interested)

Toribelle: would you be able to keep track of the votes for us? Once July 29th has come and gone or the majority of people have voted, perhaps you could post that? (Toribelle agreed to keep track for us)

Fish Extender Info: (provided to us by Tazgirl1981)

Here is a link on the Fish Extender info

And what you do is each member that decides to participate in the Exchange Buys or makes one of these and has them hung by their stateroom door. Then Everyone gets or makes gifts or brings something special for each person participating in the exchange. You dont have to give much, it isnt to break the bank so to speak. But its something fun and its neat coming back to your room and having a gift or two waiting for you

On the other meet that I am on, They made a list of who all is participating and then their stateroom Numbers and AGE and/or occassion of who all is traveling (in case you want to do something related for gifts) and Each person gets a gift for everyone (whatever you want).

You can assign people to give their gifts on certain days if you want everyone to get a gift each day or if you like or it can be a free for all (meaning you can give them out whenever you want to during the cruise). But each person is supposed to get a gift Also you can either just get gifts for certain ones or you can get gifts for everyone thats participating (depends on what the rules are going to be) for the cruise meet that I am on for October, You must bring something for everyone on the list...about 16 people so far participating on that one. But not every cruiser participates or has to, just whomever would like to

Im the same as you...Very vocal behind the computer...VERY SHY in person. :eek: I mean I have a hard time talking on the phone to people that I know, let alone talking to people in public :scared: I want to meet everyone on the forum but I have a hard time doing it. Also I have my DS that goes with me everywhere and I was thinking the same thing about a meet that I am going to be doing in Oct...I noticed that I don't hear of any kids being mentioned anywhere and a lot of mentioning of alcohol and such, so I'm not sure I'm going to be that excited about that meet :confused3 . I know that it will be much better if we allow those with kids and significant others that may not be as familiar with the forum to join in and feel comfy as well. :hug: My hubby doesn't come on the forums either but he at least is very outgoing and vocal and not shy at all (we are complete opposites in that way).And is very happy meeting new people no matter who they are or where we are:thumbsup2

What exactly is a "White Elephant Exchange"? sorry just never heard of it LOL

Hmm some name ideas for us...lets see, I can come up with a few ideas and see what everyone else comes up with (sorry a lot with the MAYniac theme):

The Quiet Cruisers :lmao:
The MAYniac Cruisers (since we cruise in may)
The Disney MAYniacs
Magical Mayniacs (since we are cruising on the Magic)
Stern Mayniacs
Captain Mickey's Mayniacs
Mickey's Cruiser's


Those are just a few for now ;) I could probably go on all night with those time of names but I dont want to get carried away. :rolleyes:To ask

ok, i haven't caught up to the end of the thread yet, but i really like these names...esp Magical MAYniacs! Very creative :goodvibes
 
Here is one for ya. Hope it comes through.

:banana: Hey everyone, looks like for now May 2nd is still a 'go' for us next year. Looks like we might be able to get the extra days out of school for step-DD's graduation to 2 instead of 3. Now if only DD stays well and doesn't miss too many days before May we will be there!

I need to go back and catch up on what I've missed on the threads but no time now unfortunately. From a quick overview it looks like a lot has been going on! I love the button idea, the proposed names (my vote above), and the fish extender idea.

Does anyone else have a DD that will be close to 7 at the time of sailing? I was just curious...
 

Hey everyone! Thanks for the welcome. I just want to say that if the voting is over, I love the name Magical MAYniacs and if the voting isn't over, I vote for Magical MAYniacs! :rotfl:

A bit more about us: we're also from Canada (yea!). We live out west in Calgary. It's our second cruise but our first Disneycruise. My name is Annie. I'm 45. My DD is Emilie. Our DBF (which looks funny when I write it, since I see BF and think Boy Friend, not Best Friend :rolleyes:) is Dorie. I've sent her this link, so hopefully she'll join in soon.

Pirate at Heart, when I saw the list of folks, I immediately saw your DD's name on it. It's nice to know there's another parent with the same worries. I do hope she and Emilie hit it off, which will make the cruise much more fun for both of them. I know Emilie worries about finding a friend on the cruise.

Btw, Pink Elephants is a reference to Dumbo. I like Pooh, but I love Dumbo! He's my favorite character, and Pink Elephants is my favorite song in the movie.

TTFN.
:dumbo:
 
Thanks laura001 , that would be easy to remove that. No problem. Im glad you liked it.
 
Wow... I've missed a lot! Since the voting is still open, my vote is for the MAGICAL MAYTIES.

Count me in for the fish extenders... there are 5 of us.

Also, I like the first and fourth pictures.

Apparently, I'm going to have to check in here a little more often!popcorn::
 
Okay, I went back and looked again and if we're voting on pictures as well, mine is for the 4th. :cheer2:
 
That looks nice mom...Thanks for sharing!!

I like Pooh, but I love Dumbo! He's my favorite character
My son LOVES elephants so its natural that he loves dumbo as well. :lovestruc

Just so all you new ones know...I will post some about myself :goodvibes

I am 27 (well will be in Oct) and this will be my 3rd Disney cruise, the first one was last year and it was a 4day on the WONDER, my second one will be this October (first 7 day on the MAGIC) and then of course my third will be this one. And I will be sailing with my DS who will be 3 in Sept, and my DH who is 30. We will also be joined by my mother :wave2: (hi mom: choco_latae) and Father :wave2: (hi dad: Charley53) and sister (she doesnt post on here but hi Jenny if she is reading around mom) For their FIRST ever cruise :woohoo: and my MIL (Mama Sally, she doesnt post on here but maybe I can talk her into joining as well):rolleyes1 and this will be her FIRST ever Disney cruise as well (she has been on other cruise lines before though)

You are right....please don't be a stranger!!! :goodvibes Thanks for voting!!!
 
How is everyone doing today? Good I hope :thumbsup2 Just wanted to say hi to all who are reading and posting today :wave2:
 
Hello! I haven't been posted in a really long time (like since the first page), but I wanted to say hello to all the people that have posted since and are coming on our cruise.

I also noticed a lot of people from Oregon on the list (anyone else bringing 3 and/or 5 year olds?). I was wondering if anyone had bought plane tickets yet? I will be flying out of PDX and checked airfare today (we'd be using frequent flier miles for two of our four tickets, so I wanted to book early). The tickets were $789 per person one way! I know in the past is was $200-$300 to fly to Orlando, which I know was too cheap and they have now adjusted for the airfuel, but that still seemed like a lot to me.
