Mexican Riviera - Jan 2nd 2012

Hi Everybody!

My family is getting real excited about our cruise. We got our cruise documents today and are counting the days! My group has been on the FE list, but I wanted to give cabin numbers, names and ages. Here's how our family is broken up with ages in ().

Margie, Brian, Trevor (3), Karlie (1) = cabin #TBA
Richard, Laurie, David (16), Daniel (8) = cabin #2645
Claudene, Yetta, Rebecca (7) = cabin #2643
Nancy and Larry = cabin #2631
Doris and Debbie = cabin #2641

We're looking forward to exchanging with all of you!

I also wanted to update the FE list.

My cousin and her DD16 finally got their GTY room assignment. They will be in room #7631.

Hopefully, everyone else on the FE list will also supply their name, age and cabin # soon. My family is getting together to work on our FE gifts in 2 weeks.

Thank you. We're so excited! I'm going out to the mail now to check for my cruise documents.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Does someone have a complete "official" list for the FE? Would you be willing to direct me to it (or send it by PM)? Thanks!!

Also, has anyone called DCL to get any more clear information on the schedule for our cruise? I was thinking to call to ask about the schedule for dining rotations and special nights, as they must have them set by now. If someone has already called, it will save me the phone call!

Happy Cyber Monday everyone! Hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving...time to sew my mouth shut till the cruise...

Still no cruise docs I was trying to be all casual as I flipped through the mail this weekend around my kiddos, but inside I'm shouting...WHERE ARE MY CRUISE DOCS!!??

We're almost at the one-month countdown!!

 

[JacksGirlz]

Just got home and checked the mail and our cruise docs FINALLY arrived!

 

[Sorcerer Mom]

Cruise docs arrived!!

Wonder (no pun indended ) what movies will be showing? Last time we were on the magic, Goofy snuck into the theatre and started climbing over the seats and spritzing us with water...leave it to DCL to make sitting in a movie theatre fun!

 

[CADZNYCHC]

Would you be willing to PM or email the spreadsheet?

Oh yes of course...do you want to PM your email address?? anyone else who would like the spreadsheet, please PM your email addresses & i will update it with all the updates i'm seeing & get it right out to you!!! SOOOOO excited - we're on the countdown now!!!!! WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO (altho we don't have our docs yet)

 

[CADZNYCHC]

I'm not claiming this is the "official" rotation, and don't remember where I saw this, but I've got it marked on my spreadsheet (yes, I do one of those ) as: Casual, Formal, Casual, Pirate (P/V), Semi-Formal (Cabo), Casual. Could have been from a 6-night itinerary I found, which I think was an LA to Vancover? Would be interested to know if you found out anything from DCL that might be more definite tho.

Also, looks like we've got a full ship! Have been checking DCL's website to see what catagories are still left because I was going to inquire if an upgrade might be possible at port, but, as of today, our cruise no longer comes up when searching in January.

This will be our first family cruise and we are sooo looking forward to it. We have 2 girls, ages 6 & 7.5 yrs old....this is a surprise for them as well. I am interested in the FE...anyone want to share with me some ideas...as I'm no at all crafty.

Thanks

Kim

WELCOME Kim & family!!!! The cutoff for the FE was 11/18, but i KNOW i have extra gifts & i bet most will so HEY EVERYONE, IF you have extra gifts - do you mind adding Kim & family....???

Kim - the FE gifts do not need to be homemade craft items...they can be about anything...you can choose "cabin gifts" something that can be shared by all, or individual gifts. some of the things we've rec'd on past cruises are:
paper / pens / hilighters / tylenol / candy / laundry stain pens / cookies / magnets / bubbles / etc.....

How long ago did you leave MH?

Wow a full ship? I'm surprised!

From somewhere I have written down: Rot/Formal/Rot/Rot(PV)/Pirate(Cabo)/TillWeMeet. I'm not sure where that came from. I haven't had a chance to call DCL, but if/when I do, I'll post what I find out here.

I haven't started my FE yet, so I'm good with adding another family!

Can we get their info added to the spreadsheet?

 

[Kgladden]

Thanks for including us....and the FE ideas. If it's too late, i completely understand. Would still love to meet you all.

I lived in MH for over 20+ years....a Live Oak Alumni ('89).

 

[MotuIslander]

Wow! There is a lot more action over here than on that OTHER cruise board.

We've been booked for quite a while and this will be our first Family cruise in about five years (usually cruises are for my DW and I!). Looking forward to our first sailing on the Wonder!
