Tigger - you're going to miss trick or treating at home and get there too late for MNSSHP - where are the kids wearing their costumes?

POST #1502!
I WAS TRYING TO BE 1500 BUT WORK GOT IN THE WAY!

CAN WE MAKE 2000 BY SAIL DATE? THATS ONLY 16.6 A DAY

How many kids are in your party...I'll try to make sure I collect stuff for all of them.

You ALL are so sweet to be willing to share your MNSSHP candy.

The girls are going to be so shocked when they get the candy!

 

[wuv tigger]

It's getting harder & harder to keep the secret ... secret!

 

[tinapomp]

That is soooo wonderful!!!! I'm so happy they're excited about planning their costumes- you must be ready to BURST every minute of the day with excitement!!! I'll have some candy for them...

LBIGIRL67- aren't you taking a limo to the ship? We are too, and we're stopping on the way to purchase a case of water and a bottle or 2 of wine for the room- then we're going to check the case of water in like a piece of luggage. The wine will go in a small wheel on cooler- no ice- and small enough to fit through the xray to get on ship.

Do you just put on one of the DCL luggage tags when you check it in your luggage? Would they give extras for us to do that?

I'm sure we can!
As things get closer we are all going to get more and more excited, and the only people who will understand are here on this thread!

1. They get to wear them on the plane and at this point they will know about the cruise.
2. This is part of the scheme ... I can't let on that they won't be T&T'ing but seeing Mickey & friends the next day.
3. My sis & family live 45 minutes from Cape Canaveral. I may have them meet us there for some fun & games & pool time. IF my kiddos get to do this, it WILL make up for missing Trick or Treating at home!

I can plan to post EVERY time someone else posts. That should get us there in no time.

Yes, that is what i read. People have posted that they stuck a luggage tag on a case of water and it showed up in the cabin with the luggage. I have a BIG baggalini that I can stuff the water into if they say it needs to be in a bag- but I think it will be ok as is.

Excellent, thank you!

along with a cheesecake on a stick

 

[plutospup]

Well, how about Key Lime pie on a stick (dipped in chocolate optional), and a Philly cheesesteak.

BTW... we will hit 2000 posts within the next few weeks!

O.K....got some documents from AAA today, arrived via DHL. However, there are no Mickey Express tags in there, since staying at PC ahead of time, and no DCL doc's....sooo confused. Making a phone call.

"Pluto's Pup I've been Boo'd by the EDCs!"

the above line on so many emails....what does that mean? And can you actually pick up water in Key West?

 

[jblb1020]

As I am sitting here at work I am thinking that next month at this time we should all be on the MAGIC! That means not having to make my bed, not having to worry about what to make for dinner and not having to run my kids to dance and soccer!! AND I will have CHOCOLATE on my pillow before I go to bed at night! I can't wait!!!

I'm pretty sure that all of the parts come seperatly.
Magical Express tags are shipped seperate from your WDW resort info which is shipped seperatly from your DCL info.

(so lots of packages to look forward too.)

I am trying not to psych myself up for getting the packets.
Based on past trips, DH and I won't get our docs until the week of the 13th.
The WDW info I think will come by the end of next week.
(and it its sooner I can be pleasantly suprised... If its longer.. I will panic!!)

Yes
Next month at this time we will have all met face to face!
Probably we will all be heading back to our staterooms to get ready for the lifeboat drill!

Actually, one of my favorite memorys from our 2006 back to back cruise was from our 2nd lifeboat drill. One of the crew members who we had interacted with a lot on the first week was one of our muster station people. When he saw us he did a double take and gave us a big hug!

 

[wuv tigger]

I think we will be finishing up on the muster drill at this time.

Maybe thinking what should we wear to dinner. Do the kids want to wait for dinner or should we feed them now so they can go to the kids club?
