Mexican Riviera on the Wonder 3/25/2012

[mjhayes]

Hi Lesa!!! Thank you! Our family consist of four of us. My husband Mike, me Jodi and my two children... Liberty (girl-8) and Shepard (boy-8). Our room number is 1054. I want to get this right... . Each family member makes a gift for each person in our FE group??? So if there were 40 people in our FE group My family would make four sets of different gifts equaling 160 gifts? I am super excited, but I think my brain is moving faster than it is soaking all this excitment up. HAHAH! We are newbies so I might need a little extra magical help.

We will be there on deck three if that is the plan. :0)

This will be our first cruise with Disney. We have sailed Holland America and two Carnival Cruises. I have heard Disney's Cruises are the BEST. We have two eight year olds, we are from Illinois, and DVC members.

Welcome! Just a warning you WILL get hooked on Disney Where in Illinois are you from?

And your room number too Glad to have you on board!

Lets figure out a meet up time after lunch!! Say 2pm in the Promenade Lounge on Deck 3? Should give us enough time before muster, no?

Sounds good to me. I will have copies of FEs for everyone.

 

[cadeclaire]

We'll be there!

We'll be there!

I was just wondering what we can do if someone has a room change or an upgrade on the day of boarding. Maybe we can make a Room change list just in case...but then again if everyone makes it to the meet and greet we could just let everyone know then...sorry I'm kinda thinking with my fingers and my mind is all over the place. It's been one heck of a week...I feel like this and like this and like this all at the same time

We are from northern Illinois between Rockford and Dekalb. Had snow yesterday and it's melted today. Just got our docuents yesterday! Yippee!

That does happen. What we have done in the past is just change the room number on our sheets. I will also have some hanging on our door for those who can not make it to the meet and need a sheet. Hope you have a better weekend

We are not that far. We live in Elk Grove

Wow - this FE list is about twice as big as for our other two cruises! I am starting to worry about getting everything there. Has anyone ever tried to ship stuff in advance?

I've been wondering the same thing! I read on some other threads that LA doesn't have a place for us to send to, but if you are staying at a hotel they might accept a package on your behalf.

I heard some FE's can grow to over 100 staterooms, so my pocketbook is pretty thankful we only have 23 so far!

Getting SO excited to fly out in 31 days!! No cruise docs yet that everyone else is talking about. Does everyone get them or just if you don't fill out your paperwork online?

I'm glad we aren't the only ones who haven't gotten anything yet! I was starting to wonder. We filled stuff out online, but I also wonder if it's taking longer because we used a travel agent and maybe it has to go to her first and then she routes it to us?

 

[mjhayes]

Yep! Elk Grove is not too far. Praying for a snow day tomorrow! I teach so I pray for those sort of days often.

 

[acpalmer]

Snow day for us today!

Those warm beaches of Mexico are sounding better and better all the time.

Well, finally decided at staying in Long Beach the night before. One thing less to worry about

 

[mjhayes]

We are using our DVC points and staying two nights at the Grand Cal. Coming from IL we never know the weather. My fear is SNOW when we go to fly out. If things are delayed we still am going to make that cruise.

 

[cadeclaire]

More snow last night than expected, which is always fun. Same worries about travel delays in/out of Denver.....we are going in a couple of days early, so I'm confident we'll make the cruise! AND, I plan to purchase items in LA instead of flying them!
