Mon. July 25, 2016 Magic 7night Dover to Barcelona -Who's in?

[RACHEL_GB]

Hello HPW, I saw you over on the test board just now!

Ditto and ditto - I am too excited but I haven't told the children yet. I am using these boards as an outlet for my excitement

It is me, my husband, daughter (9) and son (6). I am not going to do FE this first time as I want to suss it all out first, but I hope you all have a great time doing it!

Is anyone else on a GTY cabin? I wonder if we will get our cabin assigned soon.

Hello there Rachel, French Family and HPW! I am so excited that our trip is just around the corner

Rachel - I will have to look up the Beefeater Tower of London tour and the MBNA Clipper! Thanks for sharing the tip

Isabelle - I actually have never been in an FE Group with a name before! But if you have some suggestions for names, I think that would be a fun idea Meanwhile, I will go ahead and add you to the FE group.

HPW - Yes, I will add you to the FE group!

 

[RACHEL_GB]

Is anyone on here GTY? I'm going mad checking it every day, surely it must be soon!

I know there is a separate thread for people to post about their GTY assignment but wondered if anyone had had theirs

 

[kayochan]

I am not on GTY for this cruise but have had one in the past. Our last GTY assignment/tickets came about 3 weeks before.

 

[RACHEL_GB]

Hi - I just logged on and we have it! My daughter split water on my MacBook and killed it yesterday so I haven't logged onto anything since then. It must have come through this morning.
We didn't get an upgrade but I thought we probably wouldn't. A little nervous as stateroom reports are mixed re: noise but I am sure it will be fine

 

[kayochan]

Rachel: Congrats on getting your GTY assignment!

Hellooo All

Just booked the Food Lovers Tour in Barcelona for some post cruise fun! They have different food tours. We are going with the Market Tour which is during the day (most are during the evenings). The Sweets Lover Tour which is another daytime tour looked great as well. These are small group tours (not private), but they can do private tours upon request and availability.

Appreciate the heads up! We booked all 3 also. And thanks for adding us to the FE list. Getting excited for the cruise!

I am really excited about the cruise too!! A friend from Spain has told me how fantastic the seafood is there and am looking forward to checking out some restaurants. Maybe a lunch in Vigo at a local place.

Hi All!

Since the trip is coming up fast I would like to organize a Fish Extender group! I have participated in a couple of FEs and they are always a lot of fun. It sounds like there is some interest in this, so anyone who would like to participate, please let me know information regarding your party via Personal Message or post on this thread.

Here on the boards, we will list out the disboard usernames and simple party info but we will keep the stateroom numbers and actual names private (if given). Please provide kids age at time of travel and any food allergies.

FE List (will be updated as additional people request to join):
Last date to join - 6/18/16.

Kayochan: Me (DW), DH, DS (14), DS (9)
LordPluto: Me (DH), DW, DS (19), DD (15)

Frozen's French Family: Me (DW), DH, DD (10).
dwcsk8: Me

Thank you so much for organizing this! We are so excited to participate!!! Please keep me posted. I'm new to this so its all a bit confusing.
Tatgal818: Me, my sister, my niece (14)

Hello Osric and Tatgal818!

I just added you guys in!

Here's the final participant FE list:

Kayochan: Me (DW), DH, DS (14), DS (9)
LordPluto: Me (DH), DW, DS (19), DD (15)
HPW: Me (DW), my mother, DS (10), and DD (7).

If you have not sent me your stateroom(s) numbers, please do so as soon as possible so that I can send out the distribution order/assignment list. Our cruise is 8 days (7 nights) and the assignments will be for day 1 (boarding day) through day 7. The FE gift can be one per stateroom or for each person in the stateroom.

If you have a preference for your assignment days (beginning, middle or end of the cruise), then please let me know asap. Meanwhile, now that we know the final participant list, we can all begin getting our FE gifts together! Assuming that everyone can receive PMs, I will send out the list with the actual assigned dates in the next couple of days (allowing for last minute stateroom updates and any preferences requested.)

Also, anyone interested in an onboard meetup? In the past, we have met up during sail away (while they play music and we wave to the people on land as we sail away from the harbor). It gives us a good casual venue to meet up and chat up at the beg. of the cruise
