We just got back last night after spending a couple of days at Disney. Thanks to everyone who participated in the FE on the cruise. It was great fun and the boys loved coming back to the room and finding gifts. It made a great trip even better. I am sorry I missed out on the meet up. Time seemed to go faster on the cruise and we ran out of time to do everything we wanted to!

Thanks Minnie Monellen for running the Minnie FE.
Thank you for all your hard work. I was not sure I got all FE's but I thought it was because I was the trouble maker up in the tower (deck 12) behind the magic Disney gate. It was still a total blast and all the gifts were GREAT.
Also I was the trouble maker to flip over the FE to hide the gifts and add a "flags up" on delivery of an FE gift.

You're very welcome! The Minnie Group had quite a variety of gifts. I gave the NYC tote bags with the cruise emergency kits. We also got cups, cozies, and magnet clips from South Dakota, an assortment of Mickey calendars, notebooks, pens, and cups, and a very humorous door magnet about Fish Extenders. I loved the honey and bee hive candles you gave. Thanks so much!

Im confused...what is the minnie group??

We had a BLAST!! Loved all the gifts!! One person didn't have a FE so I don't think that person was in the room.
I gave the gift bags for the kids, key chains and frames I hope everyone liked them <3

Thanks for the well wishes! She was crying bcause she wanted to go to preschool this morning!

We also didn't receive all our gifts and left our FE out as well. Not sure how often it happens. Maybe someone decided to take the gifts from our FE before we got back to the room or ?

At least some went the extra mile to find replacement gifts when their luggage was taken. We appreciate that very much! Thanks OnMedic!

Glad you liked the gifts!

Thank you! I hope your little one is feeling better.
They have not found our luggage yet. So I would say someone is enjoying lots of gifts. I am not sure if we got all of the gifts or not. Lost count.

OnMedic, thank you for going the extra mile and getting replacement gifts. Love the colorful pens!

No problem. I was so excited to be in the FE group I didn't want to miss out.
Thanks for organizing the FE group. It was a lot of fun.
I noticed you have been on other disney cruises. Just wondering if you found this one not as good as the older ships. I found the food and our server not the greatest as well as our table locations 3 out of 4 nights to be in an awful spot. We really enjoy Royal Caribbean and I was so excited to do the disney cruise as I love everything disney but my husband and I were a bit disappointed. Not sure if it was because we had our hopes up too much.

Just wanted to say thanks to Ellen for the organization of the FE group. Also, thank you for all the nice, thoughtful, and creative gifts.

We unfortunately had a very sick little girl and didn't get to enjoy like we could have. We had to fly home early and miss WDW. She got a nasty 48+ hour throw up bug (15 times), a cold and ear infection. She is now in antibiotics and on the mend.

We hope everyone had a great time!

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!

I think you asked me where we got my daughter and son's shirts from at the meet and great.

Sorry I'm so late posting this, thanks for all of the Mickey group FE gifts! If someone didn't receive their Mickey mirror keychain from me let me know. I have a few extras.

I've been on other cruise lines, but this was my first Disney cruise. I found the food on the Dream to be mediocre at best, even Palo was just "ok" for dinner. Our server, Cat, just didn't seem interested in doing anything more than was absolutely required. However, our assistant server, Henry, was wonderful. Before the cruise I read so much about people's great dining experiences, that by the time I got on the cruise and experienced it myself, I came away from it somewhat disappointed. We're going on the Magic this summer (NYC to Canada) and I will definitely request a server for that cruise.

We loved the keychain and the candy! Thank you so much for taking the time to make them!
