Anyone else get a call yesterday from DCL stating our arrival time changed in GC? My DM was at my house and took the call we either are going from 8:45am arrival to 7:30am or vice versa I looked on the website and it shows 8:45am arrival so I think that is the updated time but just looking to confirm and let you all know in case you have private excursions booked with an early start. Hopefully someone else got the call and got the message straight

Ok I think I answered my own question. I logged onto my cruise and it looks like my excursion time for Stingray city/turtle farm/hell was changed to 7:30am (yikes I hope we have warm weather) so obviously we will be in GC fairly early. Sorry for the confusion

Ok...hello fellow FE participants. I will update the spreadsheet as well, but wanted to let you all know of a slight change in our plans for our cruise. My stepson will be joining us on our cruise as well. His name is Connor and he is 11. This is a BIRTHDAY cruise for him! He will be 12 on the 29th! I AM IN NO WAY ASKING YOU CHANGE YOUR PLANS OR TELLING YOU TO INCLUDE HIM IN YOUR FE GIFTS!!! However, wanted to let you just in case you get to our room and think you missed someone or have the wrong room. We just found out the other day he will be able to join us. I will have a little something for him on our door or fish, just don't know what yet.

If you have any suggestions on how to help me make him feel included and feel special please let me know. He is not on our custom made FE. I ordered it based on just my husband and our 2 kiddos going. I was thinking of getting him a magnetic hanging organizer for the door or something. If anyone has an idea that won't make it look like we just "threw" him on our cruise let me know! We already requested the door decorations for his birthday.

Thanks and sooooooo ready to go!!

Ok...something just crossed my mind...Is the DISMEET spreadsheet also the FE list? I just panicked and thought, OMGoodness, what if there's a separate sheet for FE's and I have bought enough stuff???

Shauna - Thanks for the heads up. I will add Connor to my list. You caught me just in time was planning on packing up and mailing stuff to ship this Friday. How many pockets is your FE if you and DH each have one then you can convert one of the others to Connors and make a special B-day pocket out of cardstock or felt to place over one of your names. Then you and DH can share a pocket. I do not think anything magnet would hold up once stuff is placed into pocket. Another option is to make a pocket/slash bag (check main boards I think there is a thread on new-sew FE ideas) that is individual to him maybe a sports theme that he like's and try to attach to your FE with ribbon or zipties either above or below. I am sure he will be appreciative of anything and not feel left out

Spreadsheet is updated from original list that was created by Princessisis. The spreadsheet has everyone that is particpating in FE marked with a yes under FE column. If you followed spreadsheet you are fine

I think we might be interested. We might do the wine tasting for giggles.

Your timing is just about perfect. I just finished the FE gift (but yet to do my FE for the door) yesterday, so I can still put one together.

My wife and I are going on our first cruise wondering who else will be going.
We are so excited and looking to have fun and Relax hope to hear from others soon and would like to meet up.
Take Care,
Phil

13 rooms not counting you're own room(14 rooms in total). We still are awaiting Princessisis room assignment. Should be anyday now since Doc's will be mailed out soon Can't wait to do the doc dance!

I am not trying to be a downer or anything, but this is the count that I have been going with because we had agreed on the end date. I just realized that there are now 15 rooms beside my own and I do not have enough gifts for everyone!!
I am not sure that I can pull everything together in enough time. What am I supposed to do in this situation?

alamere1496 if you already have all of your gifts put together then that is fine. I am sure DVCphil will understand if not everyone on the list has extra gifts to go around since we set a cut off a while ago. Don't worry it will all work out and ......... only 15 more days until we sail

15 more besides our own?! I think I am missing one then... the count I had after the cut off was 13 rooms besides our own.

Phil and his wife an 1/2 way in luck with me... we are finished out FE gifts but I have extras of some gifts, but not all... so we will be able to drop off a little something from us.

Who are we missing? I am confused because I KNOW we said 13!! At least I know it's not just me who is confused!! LOL!!

I don't get 15 - based on the list I get 14 rooms minus ourselves = 13 rooms, then add Phil and Wife if we can (wish I fortunately can). I just want to be sure that I have everyone covered.
