It still feels so weird to have booked a cruise 25 months in advance! But I wanted the very same room we had on the Dream in May 2011, so here, I go. I called on the first booking day to roll over our bounce back reservation. Sorry, but we have the best room: the very last one on our deck, the biggest veranda ever and the best view of CC and other ports.

DD13 (at time of sail) doesn't know yet. She will be extatic!

Thank you for starting the thread, that's part of few things I still don't know how to do yet. ... so I had to wait for someone else to do it...

Might as well announce it already: we want to participate in FE. This too, I don't know how to start. So as soon as someone starts it, we're in!

Now, with this post, the "group" is already started 2 years to the day in advance! I guess we'll get to know each other...

See you onboard, and welcome to everyone that will join us later on,

Poussière de fée!

 

[dennisbryce]

Welcome
I was so excited to see someone post on here after I started. We just got back a couple weeks ago from our second Disney cruise and planning for this one is helping with the disney withdrawl.

We are definately doing the FE also. I will start a list with people who are planning on participating Sounds funny cause there are only the two families so far

 

[dennisbryce]

Here is list of possible names for our group:

"Minnie's Fantastyc Friends"- wlbbcb
Minnies Western Fantasy Cruisers- dennisbryce
"FALLing into FANTASY"- Clochette nordique
"Falling for Fantasy"- cathyalby

When it gets closer to our cruise we will post a poll and everyone gets to vote -

Chocolate Meet
Smoothie Meet

 

[wlbbcb]

We will be there!!! Just got it booked on 11/9/11 exactly 24 months out and it feels very weird, but man I love my DVC!!!

We have two cabins for 5 of us.

In cabin 7016:
Me: Wendy, celebrating 39th birthday onboard. I just miss it by a week actually.
DH: Ben, 49

In cabin 7018:
DN: Heather, 33
DS: Michael, 10*
DD: Gabrielle, 9*

*they have already told me that they will be spending as much time as possible in the kids club. I told them that we don't mind. ;p
My niece told us that she wanted to room with Mikey and Gabby and we said "okay!". We don't mind having a room to ourselves, although I am really excited about the connecting rooms.

We will join the fish exchange! I was just on the Dream 10/9 and we participated in it. My friend did it all and I was amazed at the thought, time and effort she put in. Participating in the FEE will allow us to walk off some of the food we will be eating!

Looking forward to the trip!

Joining in!

A group of friends and myself were on the Dream back in september, DBf and I booked a dummy cruise on board, and once the dates came out, decided this would be the best fit. Long enough away to save up for the cruise; and we knew we wanted a Western Caribbean.

So far, it's just myself...who you can refer to as Chia and the Boyfriend. We have invited all our friends who were on the Dream with us, but didn't want to commit so far out.

I didn't get to be apart of the FE on our last cruise, so I think it'd be fun for us to do this one! So sign us up!


Two years from now, we'll all be in Costa Maya!

Welcome, welcome

It is early but more time to get to know everyone.

Glad to see more and more people to be joining us. We have a long ways to go but more time to plan things

Is this your first 7 day cruise???

Welcome aboard to all of you! If we keep talking to each other like that, we'll all be family by the time we board the ship!

I'm already counting the rooms and the FEs gifts DD13 and I will have to make. We'd better start NOW! or we should do as we did in May 2011: we asked DD friends to help make some crafts. DD13 already knows what she wants to make, according to what she received in May.

What I also see is that most of us already cruised before and some of us are on bounce back offers (even if we played the dummy dates at first).

Anyway, if any of you knows how to start a spread sheet for FE on Gmail or Googles or the likes, please go ahead! (I would if I only knew how to... )

Poussière de fée!

Is this your first 7 day cruise???

It is my first 7 day cruise! I am so excited for it too!

I have pretty much been on each ship when they were new. But I've only ever done 3 night cruises. So I'm very much so looking forward to a longer vacation on board.

 

[wlbbcb]

Can we put a cut off date for signing up for the fish extender? Say October 1, 2013? Something definite so if someone is ordering something, they can have plenty of time to receive them?

 

[Clochette nordique]

Can we put a cut off date for signing up for the fish extender? Say October 1, 2013? Something definite so if someone is ordering something, they can have plenty of time to receive them?

Of course, we can! We decide what we want. The majority wins and since there are 3 entries yet and that the 2 of us agree, we make the majority. So, October 1st, 2013 is the cut off day for FE.

It just made me smile so much because it is still so far away. But I guess that if I answer you that early, I should be as much an "avid planner", (or worst "addicted"), as maybe you are!

And you know what? I printed 70 Xmas cards today with "Happy New Year 2013"!!!!! I guess I'm all wrapped up too close to the cruise. It also made the photoshop lady laugh so hard! She suggested me to use it next year, but the picture on the cards, is the picture of DD on the Dream with her princess dress. So, first: it's from a 2011 trip and and second: she will be so grown by next year, that keeping them for next year won't make sense anymore. They will go out like that and I will see who realizes the gap!

Anyway, FE problem resolved, if you agree. Do we really need to vote? What is the founding member thinking about that?

Poussière de fée!

 

[Clochette nordique]

I just re-counted the number of members of this thread, and there is four of us, already. I made a huge mistake: we will, have to vote.......

So, officially, what are the two other members (dennisbryce and chiamarie) thinking about October 1st as a cut out date for FE?

I kept wanting to ask that question early so that once the thread takes off, it wouldn't get lost.

I put it on the back burner so I don't get too excited, but once in a while, I day dream!

I think October 1st would be great
It seems so weird to be talking about it already but better to get everything organized now rather then later

Is anyone willing or wanting to be in charge of the FE's???

Also I know there are only 4 of us but anyone be interested in talking about meets and get togethers while on board???
We have done smoothie meets, chocolate meets, etc... on two other cruises and they were alot of fun... Just a suggestion

I could do be in charge of the FEE. I love organizing. It'll give me something else to do to get excited about the cruise!

I think a meet or two on a 7 night cruise would be great. On my 4 night Dream, I didn't participate in any. We had one at 3pm on arrival, but my friend and I had only just gotten onboard and I didn't make it.
