[Bo'sMom]

I just sent an email to the TA to tell her to make my final payment. Wahoo. I am so excited. I'm sure you guys are already on top of this, but I just realized we are on the daylight savings cruise..an extra hour on the ship! Yay!

Congrats to those who made final payment. *cha-ching cha-ching* I can hear it all the way over here.

I just the love the wealth of information these boards offer.

As much as I would love to organize this shindig, I've gotten the impression that Ronnie and maybe Beano pretty much have a good handle on this. I would just want there to be a central spot for getting up-to-date information. Luckey - it would be a great big help if you could keep the first page - your first post - up-to-date with current information. Of course, the info would need to come from whoever holds such info. I believe cabin numbers involved (only the cabin that will be Trick or Treated - for example, we have 2 cabins, but will only use one for Trick or Treating), names aren't needed (for privacy reasons), but number of children and age range would be helpful. If we don't want to "publicize" the list there, could we at least have an email update to see who is all going - maybe sent out every 3 weeks and then a final one about 2 weeks prior to sailing. Also, I would like to see what dinner seatings everyone has in case some of us would like to link up and share - better to sit with a Dis'r than a stranger. Times for the different meets would be very useful on the first page. I believe there are shirt designs for purchase, back on page 93, but the links didn't work for me. That info would be great on page 1. Also, I like Ginger's idea of a cut-off date so we can get a final figure. Once we figure the total number of kids involved, we can decide on how to split into smaller groups (if that's what we all want - personally, I like this idea because of the control issue), and set up parent or older sibling helpers for the groups. Then we could figure how many paddles we need to make. If we split up groups, it would put a damper on the "scavenger" type of ToT'g, though - unless we set up different color groups or something for the door magnets. Complicated but possible.

I would like to throw out another suggestion for an alternate Dis meet onboard. Sunday at around 10 am? Where? I don't know; could we possibly pick one of the lounges? Someone recently familiar with the ship could help with this. We haven't been on DCL since 2003 and I keep getting places mixed up with another ship. Can't keep it straight.

Luckey: Here's a link to another thread and how they keep all of their info on the first page updated: REPO 8/20 CRUISE

So first things first - I nominate Ronnie or Beano to be in charge of this shindig. Nothing like pressure. Seriously, I don't want to jump in and do a take over. I am more of a "tell me what you want me to make for the party" type of person anyway. I'm just really, really, really, really excited about this cruise. I would love to take a shot at creating the maps of the ToT'g staterooms, though. That would be fun.
I finally got one of my daughters to post on the teen thread. Getting there...

 

[Nicsmom]

Do we have a rough count for T or T? I have to place an order at Oriental Trading for my DS's b'day party and would like to order some halloween goodies as well. Do you think 50 would be an accurate estimate?

 

[DisneyDmbNut]

Ronnie - I am in 2571...I have a question...I won't have anyone in the cabin because I will be with DD...what do I do???

Anyone having a problem with DU website..I am trying to make another payment and the site isn't working!!! AGH!!!

 

[Hockeychic]

Hi, Kim!

I have the FL Tours number at home...we have already booked. If someone hasn't answered you by this evening, I will be happy to post it for you.

Also, I am trying for pre-cruise weight loss too! Since the 19th of May I have lost a little over 30 lbs. - I weigh tomorrow, so I will have an exact number by then. I am shooting for 50 lbs. before we leave. I think that the hardest part will be to keep it off once we start our Magical journey...will I see you in the fitness center or are you going to take a week off and have total relaxation?!?!!?

Keep up the good work!! I can't wait to meet you!

Hi!

I am the one that got the t-shirt thing going. I am so sorry that the links didn't work for you. Unfortunately, I don't seem to be computer savvy enough to get the design posted. If you would like to PM me with your e-mail address, I will be happy to send the design to you, along with the ordering info etc. Just let me know!

 

[tiggerandpooh]

hey hockeychic,

i too am trying to lose 20 pounds before the cruise

also the number to fl tours is 1-888-832-2111 or 1-407-857-3580 or 1-407-857-9606, the site is still not working. if you call them let me know if they are still in business cause we booked with them and now its making me nervous that there website is not working..

 

[Cruising Dreams]

Well I am glad to see I am not alone I too have been trying to loose weight. I have lost 30 lbs also and hope I can loose another 20. Unfortunatly, that won't be my goal weight but I will feel better than I have!! I started early spring and lost about 25 and then June and July.....nothing!! but lost 4 lbs in the last two weeks and I have to have faith that it will continue to come off

Thank you laddies for putting this out there. I feel inspired

 

[*love*2*shop]

[For those of you who have gone on a Disney crusie before..DO you recommend getting a LANYARD to hook your key card to( aka THE $ CARD LOL) Or what the heck do you do with it as to not lose it?

How many of these nifty things to you get( I want one , me, me ..please lol)

 

[MoranClan]

Hello everyone..

I strongly suggest the waterproof one you wear around your neck...It holds a little more than your key card..I go swimming with mine all the time..Never has leaked...

Bobby

 

[tiggerandpooh]

where can we get them

 

[princssdisnygina]

Hello all! We are in room 6628 I believe.

And to those of you looking for the card holders that are waterproof and can go around your neck, I know they sell Disney Cruise ones in the gift shop onboard which is where I got mine. Just a thought!

Gina

 

[BeanoC]

Yep, they have the waterproof cases in Mickey's Mates onboard, but if all I am carrying is my KTTW card, I just put it in the inside pocket of my bathing suit, since KTTW cards ARE waterproof!

Okay guys - Ronnie has the list and we'd be willing to post that information and keep it updated with the help of Luckey. The thing is, we need to know what all of you are comfortable having posted. The benefits of putting the info there are mainly so we can keep an accurate head count of all the kids involved for ToT'g. I think it's important to get at least a rough estimate of the number of kids to buy supplies for. The cons depend on how much info we actually put up front. I was thinking of having the stateroom number (**only the one used for ToT'g), User Name, # of kids, and age range. Mine would look like this:

7034 - Trishy 4 (9-16)

There would be no kid names mentioned and observers would need to look on this page (110, I believe) in order to know exactly what the numbers represent so I think it's fairly safe for security reasons. We could leave the age range out if you want, but I'd like to get the older kids something different than the younger kids and this would help give me a more accurate number. Please post your thoughts so we can go ahead with posting the list. If you guys want a more detailed list, we can have a running email list going for our group. You can PM me also if you don't want to post your thoughts on the thread. Another idea is to post 'main' or 'late' for seating times in case anyone wants to try to link up and share a table.

Next question: How do you feel about a 2nd meet. The initial cruise meet is at the sail away party, but I know from past experience some may not be able to make it for one reason or another and it'll be very crowded and may be hard to find the group. How about meeting on Sunday at 1:00-2:00 in the atrium or something similar? Let me know what you think and please offer suggestions.

Input is very much welcome. Thanks!!!
