NEW March 3-10, 2012 - Western Caribbean with the Magic!

[yucaipagal]

I was thinking of taking my kids to go see the Secret World of Arrietty and then thought, hey I wonder if they are showing that on the ship. So I called and they are not. They are showing: Toy Story 3 3D, Gnomeo and Juliet 3D, Tangled 3D, Cars 2, Winnie the Pooh, Pirates of the Caribbean 4, War Horse, Real Steel, the Muppets, and the Help. Thought you guys might like to know

Thanks for the info. I am surprised they aren't showing their new releases. They have one opening on march 9 the.

Thanks for the movie info. I wouldn't mind seeing the Help again and I know DH would like to see the Muppets again. This is our 3rd Disney Magic cruise and I think I've only been in the movie theater once. There is always just so much to do and so little time!

All the clothes are laid out in the guest room and ready to be backed. The main thing I need to take care of this week is getting Fiona our English Bulldog ready to go to Grandmothers for the week. My Mom loves having her but it means packaging all her meals in separate baggies, giving her a bath, getting her nails clipped, washing all her toys, blankets, and bed etc. Yes, she's a Princess even though she was named after a Dreamworks princess and not a Disney one. We were going to name her Belle and then the day we picked her up DH said "you know she's beautiful now but she's going to grow up to look like an Ogre" so Fiona it was.

I'm still watching the extended weather forecasts. We both have Friday off but right now it just looks like showers on Saturday so we will probably keep our flights were they are.

Fish extender gifts are done! Sorted. Packaged. Packed in 1 suitcase weighing in at 45#. Freaking out my husband that we will have yet 1 more suitcase. But its done!!! And we are soooooo close! It is kind of funny, usually when we do our two weeks in the parks, back home gets hit hard with snow. This year we went early in October so no snow until the 22 inches for Halloween after we got home. Then minimal for the rest of winter. Now that we are about to do Disney for the 2nd time, snow is coming. Several inches. Hope it does not interfere with our Friday flight.

I gave hubby the deadline of last Thursday to have his clothing together...he complied! Or else he would have been packing Thursday night...

My clothes are packed, girls clothes are packed. FE is packed. Not just gathering up the extras/toiletries, etc.

SO EXCITED it's finally here! Little one and I will be arriving Wednesday and hitting Magic Kingdom Thursday and Friday.

I am so impressed with how much packing everyone has done. Alas, I am not even close. I am pretty overwhelmed with preparing everything else for the week away, but I am getting the laundry done today My FEs are done and my daughter is mostly packed, next comes my son

Amost all packed. Just DH stuff and day to day stuff left. So excited it is almost here. We leave in 4 days.

Finished my last few door magnets and our pirate night t-shirts. They didn't turn out fabulous, but they will work.

Don't forget our group meet at 3pm at the Promenade lounge when we board our cruise. Can't wait to meet everyone!!

Quick question, and forgive me if it's been posted before.

For the FE gifts, do we package them in a way that it has the giver's name on it? Or is this done anonymously? I went to Party City last night and totally loaded up on pirate and Disney stuff. The cashier said, "are you having two separate parties?"

 

[Shoopdeedoo]

Help! See my post above. I need to know. Thanks!

 

[aberrydisneygirl]

For FE gifts I printed labels with our names and state. I think it is really up to you, but fun to know who all the fun goodies are from. This is going to be so fun.

 

[yucaipagal]

For the FE gifts I made a label that has our family name and my disboard name

I finished our FE gifts last night. I spent all evening packing, but I think we are almost finished! DS is very excited and helped put his clothes into his suitcase (of course everything unfolded in the process)! We can't wait for Saturday!

Um, I hear you! My husband looked at the two giant plastic bins holding the FEs and was like, "We have to take that??!!" We're already one too many suitcases on this trip...

Also, we went to Hawaii at the end of January and it snowed here while we were gone as well. Today it started snowing again and they're calling for more. We are going to get out just in time again! LOL More wierd for me because we live in Seattle and get snow like, 1-2 times a year.

 

[Keurigirl]

I am about 90% packed and the stress is almost starting to relieve itself! We have a missing shoe of my sons that I need to track down, but otherwise we are very excited!!!!!!

Everyone remember where we are meeting our first day??

 

[Shoopdeedoo]

Thank you for all of the gifts and surprises! It was so fun to look outside our door and see what is in our FE most every day

Where did everyone go after the cruise? We just checked into a hotel near Sea World. Its a nice place to decompress after a week of Disney. I think I can say, we are Disney'd out!

I also want to say thank you to everyone for our wonderful FE gifts. The kids loved finding all of the gifts everyday and it definitely helped keep them entertained when we needed to be in the room. There were some absolutely great items that I never would have thought to bring that we used everyday.

We stopped over at Downtown Disney for a couple of souvenirs and then over to the Polynesian for lunch and Dole Pineapple Whip before heading to the airport. I think my daughter and I could have handled a little more Disney but my son and husband were definitely Disney'd out.
