May 2, 2014 - A WONDERous trip through the Locks WBPC

Good day. Is it too late (way too late?) to be added to the FE group? If so, would anyone be interested in exchanging with us?

Thank you! Also, what is the FB link so I might inquire there too? (If it's closed that is.)

If anyone needs information, I was on this cruise last year and it was nothing short of amazing! Feel free to ask and I'll help if at all possible.

Welcome aboard.

So the bad news is the FE sign-up closed last week. That being said it seems like in the past week there have been a ton of people who joined the FB page. Perhaps you could coordinate a small group of late joiners or see if anyone who signed up for the first one would be interested. That happened on one of our previous sailings. There ended up being a small group of 10 cabins.

Here's a link to the FB page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/637605662932146/

welcome aboard scubadudette

I have a question or 2! Sorry, 3!

1. Do you (or anyone ) know if the TVs on the Wonder have HDMI inputs?
We love to review and delete pictures that evening we took them.

2. Do the cabins on the Wonder have the same clock radio with the MP3 player inputs?

3. How about the outlets, does anyone remember how many there are
and should we bring an extension cord with more outlets?

I can't help you with the TV question. The Wonder does have iPod docks. Outlets are in short supply. There is one behind the TV and two by the desk. You are also no longer allowed to bring extension cords unless they are for medical reasons.

They are HD TV's on the ship but you are no longer allowed to plug anything in into them. The clocks have the 30pin iPod Dock. So if you have a new lightning connection iPod it will not work. Also you may no longer, as perviously posted bring your own power. From what I understand you can get one at GS. I think you have to leave a $50 deposit which will be refunded.

Thanks for the quick answers.

Well, we just bought some peripherals for my tablet so we will be able to view the pictures there.
It would have been so much easier on the TV though!

If I remember correctly, the clock radios have the MP3 inputs
(yes, believe it or not we do not own 1 apple device!).
Correct me if I'm wrong (well the Dream had them and the DVC resorts have them).

Leave the extension cord at home. Check!

FE is closed. You might be able to make your own group with the newbies. If you don't find anyone else, I'd be happy to exchange with you!

Thanks,

Welcome! It's great to hear from repeat canal cruisers! Maybe we'll be repeaters next year.

I organized the Candy Exchange, and I could at least exchange with you, if you are interested.

I guess it's too late for the main FE group... As a first time cruiser, I didn't realize it would be cut off so far in advance (most posts I've read said 2 - 3 weeks). Does anyone know if there is another "last minute" group set up? This is our first cruise ever and I'd like it if my kids found some goodies

Thanks!

Hi Everyone!



We're getting closer! I just ordered DH's tux and ordered our photo CD. It was actually cheaper than I was expecting! Maybe I was just being pessimistic. Got our cruise docs on Friday, ordered our Disney Visa Rewards card, everything is coming together!

Lol us too, I thought maybe since someone from Escondido got it I'd have gotten it since I live near one of the major mail sorting facilities in the area, but no such luck!

Just realized that we start our trek across country 3 weeks from tonight.

We still haven't decided whether to take John's tux or not. I love him wearing it(and seeing others in them too, including cute little boys) but just not sure this time.

We got our cruise documents today.

Not here as yet. My Dreams TA said DCL have now outsourced the mailing and they were mailing earlier than they used to but can't say I have noticed.

I am down to 19 days until I fly to Florida! Just managed to change my seat assignment to one on the upper deck economy class on the A380 for the flight back home from California! Very excited!

That's a long flight. Yay for your new seating!

2 weeks from today, we begin our journey with 2 nights at Solivita, a 55+ community we are favoring as a retirement community!
