Dropping by to say hello! We will be on this cruise also, and we were just assigned an 11B on Deck 5. Now that the GTY staterooms are being assigned, it makes the cruise seem just around the corner!

 

[Lexa]

Hi lunsusie...welcome aboard. And yes....our cruise IS just around the corner. When we bookd it seems so far, far away, but we are getting closer now.....

Mmonk, I will email you a FE list tonight. We decided to not split the group up until it reached above 20. The number of times you choose to distribute FE gifts is up to you.

No splitting yet....oh good! I have already starting making items for the people on that list I was given!! Thanks

 

[Whisky In A VAse]

MY FE holders have arrived today and they look great..... Some gifts have also arrived, some tickets for my stay prior to my cruise have arrived and it all seems to be getting closer and closer, which means we are all getting really really excited.....

I have almost everything ready for a group we have now for FE.

We got our FE few days ago, magnets are all done, FE gifts almost ready, I have to make t-shirts for us and then put all the stuff in suitcases....that will be a challenge

Hi everyone!!! What is it, like 42 or 43 days??

How's everyone doing?

I am starting to get my packing lists and everything organized. I'm trying to debate what to pack... I want to keep it light, but I have a ton of outfits I want to bring!

I am thinking that for bottoms, I'll bring a pair of black slacks, black satin?(ish) capri's that I have, and a jean skirt to mix and match for dinner. 3 pairs of shorts and a one top for every day on the ship and in port. Then a coverup and my swim suit. I also have 3 long casual flowy dresses that I want to bring and my formal dress....

This doesn't sound like "packing light" now that I am writing it all out though

I think it sounds like a good packing plan. But I'd also recommend a sweater or wrap for the evenings. It can get chilly at night and for me I get especially cold in the Walt Disney Theater during the shows. I guess they pump in the AC for the crowds or for the performers, but for some reason its COLD in there to me.

Now you gotta worry about shoes too....

Oh yes... the shoes

I am trying to narrow it down and bring multi functional shoes. I have a bunch of sandals that are comfy, but are also embellished really pretty so I can dress them up or down. It's just deciding how many pairs to bring.

And thanks for the tip about the cardigan! I get chilly too! I have a few options... I'll probably bring 2 or 3 to mix it up.

 

[jinia]

Thanks for the encouragement Lexa! I have just the easy stuff to do for fe so should be done soon...just have to add ears....

Now packing...hmmm still not their for the clothes stuff...have the toiletries and such...working on it!

If it is still possible, I would like to join the FE. I have been reading all of this for the first time. Can you let me know the information that you need and let me know if I am too late. I also have a friend that is in the cabin next to me that will want to join as well. THanks.

Hi all
I have been not checking the board for a couple of weeks and now I cant believe that it is almost time to cruise!

I am a little stressed though since I was planning on making my FE and have yet to start it!
