Wanted to share that Zulily.com has a whole ton of Disney character basket stuffers under the "Follow the Bunny /Character" section today.

Zulily is a kid related flash sale site where items are on sale for 3 days. Shipping is a little longer but the prices are really good. You need to sign up with an email to see what's on sale.

I love DCL, but sometimes I want to with their website. I can't believe how long it took me to put in gift cards to pay for the cruise - it was almost like they didn't want my $$.Thankfully the gc website was working so I could transfer balances! Now I need a

So, I had posted about the issue of paying with gift cards and figured out my problem after 2 days of buying and trying to enter codes. DCL's site does not like gift cards that start with 6109 for some reason 3 states for buying gift cards and half of them I had to transfer balances Just a heads for anyone who is using gift cards to pay off the cruise! Now back to waiting for the cruise

My family will be on this cruise. Me, DH, DS 15, DD 11, and my in-laws. This is our 2nd disney cruise we've all taken together. We usually take a trip or two annually to Disneyland but we fell in live with DCL 4 years ago on the dream on a 3 night cruise. We are so excited to be able to spend more time on the ship this time.

It's always nice to "meet" a fellow DCL fan. The thread is quiet right now, but hopefully it will pick up this summer

For those in the FE, we are still holding at 8. Just patiently waiting for more people

We'll be on this cruise! Our girls are 7 and 8, and they don't know about it yet! I'm trying to come up with a neat way to tell them! They are going to flip out when we tell them!!! This will be our first DCL, but we have been on several Carnival cruises in the past. I CANNOT WAIT!!!

The main forum has had many ideas for how to surprise kids if you do a search. I have read everything from just waiting until they get to the ship, a scavenger hunt and solve the puzzle to name a few.

 

[Janna_h42]

I thought about the idea of the puzzles piece scavenger hunt. But I'll check the thread for other ideas. Thanks for the reply!!

Whatever gets us through the next 257!!! days until the cruise. My favorites are as it reminds me that I have a ghost to return to Haunted Mansion and cause who doesn't love the Mouse?

 

[Janna_h42]

Part of me can't wait to go on the cruise and wishes it were this week, but the other part of me LOVES the planning part of Disney trips, so I actually enjoy the build up! I'm so conflicted! hahaha!!

 

[Huskiesrule]

I wish the cruise was closer, but I planned a trip to WDW next month to hold me overI don't know that I like the planning so much as, really it's a cruise. Not much to plan until I am on the ship and then my hardest decision is going to be on deck or on the balcony! Right now I am focused on getting everything for the FE's cause I love to shop.

 

[Janna_h42]

Oh, I'm a shopper too! I have been planning FE's, ornament exchange, our pirate night outfits, and our other daily shirts to wear. (Yes, I'm *THAT* Disney addict that plans out our outfits! ) Man...sure wish we could fit in another WDW trip before our cruise! My husband would NOT go for that, but my kids would! HAHA!!! I'm raisin' 'em right!
