Hi All,

This will be our first cruise, first family vacation and I'm way behind. I did order an FE on etsy. I have a lot of reading to do.

One question: any suggestions on transportation to the port to leave?

We are so excited we are just crazy stupid.

Thanks!

Welcome aboard Sporty! We have a few fun things planned. We'll be posting final details in about a week or so as a final reminder to all. We're having a ToT for the kids so let me know if you have any you want to sign up.

Wow, Thea! That's pretty warm. I actually had to turn on the heater! I'm hoping we have your temps or at least the 80's for the trip.

Laura was able to get the Navigators from last week's Bahamian Wonder cruise and posted to our Facebook group.

Hey Catherine,

Yes we would like to participate in the ToT! Is it too late to join the FE list? I have a small crew, DD is 6 and DS is 4.

I was the tracker for Group 5 of the FE. I will do a quick check with the other 21 Staterooms and see if it is ok to add you in. I am betting that they accept it, even though it had previously closed. The only problem may come in where some SRs ordered things for their FE gifts, so there may be a few that could not exchange with you. I will send out a shoutout on the FB page to see. Have you joined our FB page? "Disney HalloWonder Cruise 2013"

Welcome. Glad you got into the FE - it's awesome.

We are native San Diegans, now living in Temecula.

As far as transportation - we are driving and staying Friday night in Galveston. Will use the Hotel Galvez shuttle to take us to the port and back to the hotel when we return. There has been many discussion on here as well as Facebook regarding other modes of transportation. So feel free to ask away.

Hi all! So excited to be a couple of weeks away from our trip! I've been a long time lurker on here and this is our third Disney cruise.

Really can't wait!

 

[momofkenzie]

Excited to be taking our first Disney Cruise. My 3 year old can't wait!

 

[momofkenzie]

So I just discovered this group today, and I am afraid I'm too late for everything....
Are there things we can still get in on? My three yr old would LOVE these things...help!

Today I got to break out my countdown panties! Mickey, Donald and Goofy say "15 days until we leave on vacation!"



Back story: my wonderful aunt made my Mom a 30-day set of panties prior to a trip we were taking together a few years back. Each pair has a character picture and the number of days left on our trip. Since then, it's kind of taken over our family planning countdown, my brother's family and I all have our own set of countdown underwear (although ours are only 15 days). Even to the point that when my neices were in diapers, we'd spring for the character diapers and use a Marks-a-lot to add the number to the diapers!

Howdy!

Just joined so I could get some fun ideas and great decorating tips for our cabin. This is my sixth Disney cruise, but I'll be traveling with two newbies and can't wait for the "magic" of the Wonder to begin! Maybe we can meet some of you on the cruise. Does anyone know how many are on this thread?

I definately recommend for Kids of all ages, age 0 - 102. It's not just for kids at all.

I am having personalized FE gifts made for group #5 and am running out of time to update the list... Just wondering if the FE list for group 5 is closed now that it is at 25?

Hopefully everyone who wants to particpate is already signed up

Thanks!

We (Kristin and I) think so. Now, when some more people ask to join, we are going to have to help them figure something else out. But the asking seems to have slowed down now...
