Still no cruise documents

Getting real nervous at work. There's so much I have to do to prepare. Also, projects have slipped in their deadlines by months and are now all converging to start the week I leave.

Yes, we are lucky enough to be doing back to back cruises - the first on the 14th.

We got our documents today. Nothing spectacular. I guess I am getting excited so I expected "ta - da here they are". Instead it was a small little booklet. But I am still excited. One week from tomorrow we are heading to Florida.

Ok, re-read some of these posts and realized I am a little bit behind. So, Preludes at 3:00 we can do. I have a costume for our DS who is 8 for the pirates event in the evening. Do people wear costumes to dinner as well? Adults? Kids? I have ordered me a costume and ordered a fancy pirate shirt which I am hoping to convince my husband to wear. Hopefully all will arrive before we leave.

On the fish extenders how many people are considering participating. What are your thoughts on how many things to bring to pass out. I figured whatever I didn't use for this I can use for passing out at Halloween.

Can you mail items to the ship? It might be easier to mail the package of items I am going to pass out.

Just a few last minute items.

Thanks

Okay, in case anyone is interested I called Disney today to find out what movies will be showing on board. They added the typical disclaimer but said this was as of September 27th. Here is the list (I apologize for any misspellings).

Game Plan
Under Dog
Wild Hogs
Meet the Robinsons
Bridge to Teribithia
Invincible
Pirates of the Caribbean
Ratatouille

We finally received our cruise documents today. No free upgrade, but on the plus side, we do have secret porthole cabins.

Fish extenders ... sound goofy, eh? Next to each cabin door there is the fish-type note clip. The fish extender, I believe is an extension note clip.

Lori - yes, adults do dress up for pirate night.

What are people handing out?

Also, did anyone make magnetic door signs?

We made a couple of door signs. We leave for the airport in about 12hours I was snowing today so good timing
See you all in just over a week

I think I'm going to have to get busy with door signs this weekend.

This coming weekend is targeted for packing. The DDIL and grandson arrive in Chicago on Thursday, Oct 11th so I don't think we'll be able to do our usual pack the night before the trip routine.

Are people handing things out? To whom? What sort of things?

Ok, if we get it pulled together we will be passing something out on the ship. I want to get it pulled together and then mail it tomorrow so that we don't have to carry it to the ship. We had fun shopping at Oriental Trading Company. We got these cute little containers with glow in the dark lizards and balls (my son's choosing) and then a little piece of candy made from Hammonds here in Denver. I think that is it. If you want to be sure we make it by your room and you are willing to share your stateroom number let me know.

I have the materials to make a fish extender it is whether we can pull it all together.

Oh my gosh . . . we leave in five days . . . breathe, breathe . . . everything will get done.

I can't wait until I can relax.

I am currently going crazy at work. There is a major project that was supposed to be finished two months ago and was delayed. My team gets hit with their end of it while I'm away. I have gone into hyper planning mode in trying to get people ready carry on while I'm gone.

Well it was nice to have met up with you all on the ship hope you all had a wonderful cruise. We just got home late last night and the whole trip went really well
