May 28, 2009 Wonder Cruise - Anyone Else?

[goofydad99]

If the way things normally go for Disney movies and premears........Up will be debuting our first night.

Will you go?

I think we will. It seems like a fun way to see the movie.

 

[dthogue]

We just saw the previews for "Up" today while at the Hannah Montana Movie - my DD - said "that premiers the day after my birthday - can we go see it for my birthday with my friends? Just smiled and said we'll see

We will let it up to DD if she wants to see it - altough since the cruise is so short to begin with, I would rather wait til we get home to see the movie and partake in other ship only activities - if only the cruise were longer, I agree it would be a fun way to see it.

Apparently it premears during a special midnight showing.

Now that would be cool - wonder if I can stay up that late

Tammy,

That is my biggest fear! The kids are going to be so over the moon crazy that first day. The good thing is we haven't planned a big day for Nassau. All will be well.

It looks like it will be in 3D which should be awesome!

 

[dthogue]

We don't have plans for Nassau either - I would like to take a carriage ride and walk through the straw market, but we plan to do that after lunch. My DD will be so excited if we get to see UP in 3D.

Do you know if they show the premear in the regular movie theatre or do they show it in the large theatre to accomodate more people?

Tomorrow marks the one month til departure day for us - we had a yard sale over the weekend. The money raised is going towards our trip expenses - so with that I have everything paid for. I'm ready to go!!!

Is anyone concerned about this swine flu going around? Kinda scary!!

It does make me a little nervous. I am glad we aren't going to Mexico. Hopefully it will slow down in a month but I guess it could get worse. The 5th graders from my DD's school are in DC this week. I am kind of relieved that she didn't go.

My DD's 11th Bday is the 29th. I don't know why I typed the 28th. I guess it was because I had just read your DD's b'day.

Got all my FE gift shopping done.

It was fun but also stressful. I had so many ideas of things to do and changed my mind lots before finally settling on some items. Now I just need to make my fish extender for the door.

Whose excited?

We sure are!!!!!

 

[live4christp1]

Does everyone have their room assignments now?

 

[dthogue]

Christy,

I'm EXCITED

and it driving me bananas not being able to talk about it around here - I'm just so happy that I have you guys to share the excitement with.

Great job with the FE gifts - I keep going back and forth with what to do - it will be Hershey related, so hopefully I can get it onboard without it melting. My no-sew FE is all finished, packed and ready to go!!

Cindy,

What are your DD's names - how old is your other one? We will have to make sure that the girls meet once we are onboard - it will be great for them to have someone to go to the clubs with. It will be fun for them to have someone to celebrate their birthday with!

Tammy

I sent everyone in the Fish Extender group a PM tonight. Please let me know if you didn't get it.

If you have your room number please let me know and I will add it to the list.

Thanks!

Emily will be 11 and my other DD is Ally and she is 7 and 1/2. I have read here on the DIS that they will probably let her go in the older kids club with her sister. I have prepared her for the younger one though. We are traveling with some friends that have 2 DD's age 12 and 9.

We are planning on getting onboard as early as possible so we should be able to meet out by the pool. It will help them to meet kids before they go in the clubs.

Do you have other children besides the DD turning 11?

I noticed you are in PA. We are coming up to Philadelphia and Hershey in late June.

We live right outside of Hershey - are you planning on going to Hersheypark? Brenna's 5th grade field trip is to Philadelphia - the day we leave for the cruise, so I imagine we will be traveling to Philadelphia over the summer to see the things she will miss. Were are you from?

I have 2 older DD's 17 and 19, but they are staying at home this trip - although they aren't too happy about it.

What fun to travel with friends the same age - that will make the clubs alot easier for the girls.

Tammy,

Did you use the directions from the boards for the no-sew one. I can sew a little but I don't like too. I've been going back and forth over what to do. I know how I want to decorate it. Just got to get it done. If you used the directions here does it seem to be pretty sturdy?

Thanks,
Cristy

I haven't posted in a while, so I thought that I would say hello. We are a family of five sailing on this cruise...we are on the FE gift exchange list.
It will be me, DH, DD (10), DD (8), and DD (3).

Christy, DD (10) loves Hannah Montana and High School Musical, DD (8) loves anything pirate, and DD (3) loves Mickey and Goofy.

We are planning on meeting at the goofy pool at 3 b/c I want the girls to meet others before going to the kids club. It is our first ever cruise so we are all a bit nervous.

Andrea (from TN-since there seem to be others)

Cristy,

I followed the basic instructions here - I would have liked to have sewn one, but my machine died and I never replaced it. I used no-sew glue and it seems to be pretty sturdy. I also hot glued ribbon to the bottom of each pocket to re-enforce it, so I'm hoping it holds.

Hi Andrea,

Good to see you around again - my DD loves Hannah Montana too - don't be nervous about the cruise - you are going to have such a great time. The kids are going to have a blast - we have quite a group of girls in the 10-12 age range.

Since we have agreed to try to meet at 3pm on boarding day, we might want to decide on a specific meeting place - since the area is quite large at the Mickey pool it would be better to determine an exact location so we are not wandering all over the place looking for each other. Anyone have any ideas? Right side of the pool or left - its been a few years since we were onboard, I honestly don't have any suggestions.
