It doesn't appear that anyone else is joining the forum for this trip or the FEE.

I wanted to start preparing the FEE with the current head count we have confirmed.

Hey, guys! We finally got our room assignment from DCL this week! We will be in 2109.

48 more days to go! We got our room assignment. We booked GTY 11C category and got a 09C room. Pixie dust is perfect for our 10th year anniversary celebration. We will be in room: 2108.

Our fish extender has been ordered.

We book a beach resort getaway in Puerto Vallarta and a Palo dinner and lunch.

We are so excited! Can't wait to meet everybody!

Oh, fun! You must be right across the hall! We booked a GTY 11C and got a little bit of pixie dust too. I think our rooms are a 10 something, but not sure. We are mostly excited that our family will have adjoining rooms, (we are also in 2107) because we weren't sure if we would even be near each other!

Yeah, we should probably finalize things pretty soon. I think the list on page 2 needs to be updated still, though.

That's awesome ! Where you coming in from? We're planning the Mexican Riviera on the 25th too. We did the same itinerary last year at about the same time. If this is your first, and it's on the Wonder - I have a ton of simple tips that will make the trip even more enjoyable. Are you travelling with kids ? We're bringing our boys - 7 and 9 and coming in from Calgary, AB Canada...Let me know !!!!

Just booked on this cruise! This is our first cruise as a family and my first Disney Cruise! We would love any tips or tricks that any past cruisers have to give. This cruise will be DH Garret DW Amy DS Ridge 9 DS Austin 7 and DS Ty 3. I would love to know what everyone's plans are for port excursions especially what would be fun with kids. Can't wait!

 

[WardFam]

Also we would love to join the FE, but we don't have our room assignment yet. We will let you know when we get it.

Hey, So what do we all think about getting together in the Promenade lounge at 3PM on the day of departure? I've read that a lot of other cruises do this, it gives us time to get on board, and time to get together before we have to do the muster drill. By going to the Promenade Lounge, folks with kids can easily join us and we can all get together and say 'Hi" before we embark on the cruise and all sorts of stuff.

What do you think?

 

[sheadley]

Sounds good to me!!!!

Hi Everyone! We just booked our first ever Disney Cruise this morning and we are excited! We are wondering if there is still time to join your FE exchange. We booked guarantee cabins, so we don't know our stateroom numbers yet. We were told that we might not even have cabins next to each other, but we are keeping our fingers crossed that we will.

We are a family of 5:

DH - Jeff
DW - Cynthia (me)
DS - Brandt (16)
DS - Spencer (13)
DD - Madilyn (9)

If it isn't too late to join your group, may we request no items with peanuts or soy be exchanged with us. DD has severe allergies to these. Thanks!

 

[sheadley]

Sure! I'll update your info in the master list! Glad to have you with us!!

 

[sheadley]

Also, I am making some personalized items and was wondering for those who are comfortable, to let me know your last name so I can personalize better. If you'd rather leave off your last name, that's fine. I can also generalize them.

Thanks!

Wow, the FE is getting bigger. Just wondering how everyone was thinking of distributing their gifts. Just one time? Daily? One deck per day?

I think we were going to be assigned days so that the gifts arrive throughout the entire cruise and not all in the first two days.

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to see if you have closed your FE - We just booked this cruise. Yes it is one of those last minute plans but can't beat the VGT pricing for a Disney Cruise. We have done these VGT's with Disney before any got a little Pixie Dust and got a great cabin.

Folks,
What do you say that if possible we get together at the Promenade Lounge on the first day around 3PM? I've read in some other Trip Reports that the DIS groups meet up there for a little bit to say "Hi" before the muster drill takes place. It might be fun, just to put some names to some faces before we all start giving/receiving gifts.

It wouldn't be a requirement, but just an option for those who wanted to get together for a little bit. What do you think?
