November 25th, 2016 - Black Friday on the Wonder

[Huskiesrule]

Yikes, I'm glad I wasn't on that ship!

 

[hamm1207]

We haven't cruised since last April (thanks to our Tiny Human...) and I've completely forgotten the current price for Palo. Is it $25 or $30 now? We like to try and get one dinner and one brunch on a 7 night cruise.

 

[Huskiesrule]

I don't do Palo but I want to say it's $30 or $35 now.

Don't know if this applies yet to our cruise, but you can now do the breakfast and meet and greets online http://www.disboards.com/threads/book-character-breakfast-and-meet-greet-online.3517072/

 

[hamm1207]

Great minds think alike...I was about to post that too

 

[Huskiesrule]

Ok totally random thing here - Happy Donald Duck Day

 

[hamm1207]

It's hard to believe Donald Duck is 82 years old! He looks great for his age!

No, this thread is for those of us who are excited about cruising and want somewhere to chat. I will pm you for your FE info.
ETA- my "rules" for the FE are on page 16 post #315.

Welcome to our cruise!!!

 

[zimzim4]

I learned someone else started an ornament exchange on the unmentionable site. But I'll start the
Christmas Cookie Receipe Exchange
PM your cabin # and email.
20 cabin limit
Pass out your favorite Christmas cookie or other baked goods to each cabin
Very easy !! Yummy !!

Great idea....We are driving from Southern California the Monday or Tuesday before cruise. So what would be the best way to get cookies to stay fresh?

Breakfast Meet and Greet? I had no clue this even was available! I'd love to do this. I guess we want early entry to ship to find out on navigator about this stuff???

You do know this is about a recipe for cookies and not actual cookies being passed out, right

No, this is something you sign up for on the website like you do for excursions. I think you can sign up when your check in day(platinum, gold, silver) comes up

If I understand it correctly, you're right and we'll be able to book the breakfast meet and greet as well as a princess meet and greet once we're able to check in and book excursions and what not.

It's a recipe exchange... for health concerns, you're only allowed to bring unopened prepackaged foods onto the ship. We usually bring candy for movies and shows.

It's always exciting to get Mickey Mail! We got our latest edition of the D23 magazine yesterday. I haven't had an opportunity to read it yet (last night's free time after the baby went to bed was taken by the Stanley Cup final game), but it looks like it'll be about Shanghai Disney. On a side note...we're heading to WDW next weekend (for a day or two) to go check out the new DVC lounge at EPCOT and the new ride/area in Norway.

 

[Huskiesrule]

I am jealous! My only trip to WDW this year was back in April and I am not planning to go again until next April. I have to go to the parks if I am cruising out of Port Canaveral-it's a law or something Then again Florida in the summer - hot, humid and lots of tourists
