When u tried it the first time was the reservation completely paid? They will only print the time next to the seating if it is paid for. Good luck!

Yep, and I just tried it again this morning!
Thanks!

I also tried it this am just for curious sake and got just what I see when I pull it up online.

Hmm. I just did the e-mail trick, but it only says main dining (good to know), not the particular dining time.

I can't believe it is so soon - whee! But today DD8 said this Friday was "pajama day" at school, and of course she wants to wear the pajamas I was trying to keep all clean and freshly washed for the cruise.

Someone asked before about pj's at the kids clubs -- I am having my girls bring acceptable pj's or similar comfy clothes in case there is a sleepover party event. Does anyone know anything about that?

I was told that Goofy's PJ party was only on the seven day cruises. Something to look forward to on our next cruise!!!
See everyone soon

Really weird! I did mine on 7/6/07 and it prints the time right next to the second seating. Guess they took it out on future stuff. Oh well, guess you'll have to wait until embarkation. Hope you get what you were wanting!

Hi! I just found disboards the other day and this is my 4th post. All the information here is great!!
My family will be on the Oct. 7 4-night cruise to Nassau and CC. (I'm not sure if it's Magic or Wonder, sorry! It will be me, dh, ds-15, dd-11, dd-5 and mil and bil. We hope to snorkel, hike and kayak and maybe that banana boat or paddle boats. ttyl!


HaleysMom2 , what does this mean?

Still have to make our door sign, get it laminated, and buy magnetic strips

I'd like to make something, too, if that's what everyone does!

This is going to be sooooo fun!

 

[wwwosie]

Some folks for the fun of it make a sign for their door. There's a thread with ideas on the main board. The sign has to be magnetic because you are not allowed tape of anything on the doors. It's not something you HAVE to do, it's just for fun.
I have the magnetic paper staring at me but haven't come up with a sign yet. YOu can get it at staples.

See you sunday!

 

[HaleysMom2]

Wow! I in less than 24 hours, we will be in DW!!! I can't believe it's finally here! Our plane leaves at 10 tomorrow morning. I *think* got everything done on my list...now I just need to start packing! I spent most of the day today on a mad hunt for a bathing suite cover-up. Gosh...those are NOT easy to find this time of year...especially for a pregnant woman! Finally found some maternity pool pants to wear....thought I should spare everyone the sight of my glowing white skin and extra pounds I'm lugging around these days! Haley said that I should get a shirt that says "I'm not fat, just pregnant"!

I wasn't able to find a plain white, inexpensive pillow case for signatures, so I ended up getting a photo album for them to sign instead. Anyone know if this is okay?

Emily, Taryn, Rachel, and Sophie...Haley is so excited about meeting all of you! We will see you at the Mickey Pool at 3:00 on Sunday!

I found the pillow cases on sale at Sears (now I just gotta remember to pack them).
You could buy one of those XXXL shirts that are so popular with the "gangsta" crowd, some of them are just one color.

It seems that Haley's shares Taryn's sense of humor when it comes to teasing mom! OY!

Have fun in Disney World, we'll want to hear all about the MNSSHP... (you guys are going right???)

Sorry if I'm asking too many dumb questions, but I'm new to this.
1. Do I have to have magnetic paper or can I just have a laminated sheet with magnets on the back?
2. Are the only people who put signs up the people who post here?
3. Are there a lot of people who post here who are meeting?

I thought it was a good idea to have a different sign for each day. Mine will probably have the day of the week on it but with the same pic.

I know I'll have more questions, but I want to post this so it can get answered before everyone leaves!

I have laminated mine and put magnets on the back.

There is a meet on Sunday at 3:00PM at the Mickey pool.


Has anyone checked out the weather in Nassau yet? It is calling for rain on Monday, so we need to start saying our prayers now.

No dumb questions...that's what this board is for! I've asked many of your same questions before! No worries!
1. You do not have to have magnetic paper. You can just stick magnets on the back of your paper (laminiated or not). We went the easy route and just made a sign on Word, glued it to some construction paper, laminated it, and then put magnetic strips on the back. I got the strips from HomeDepot...they have sticky backing on one side to stick to the paper, magnet on the other to stick to the door.
2. Yes, I beleive the whole door sign thing is a Dis Board thing.
3. I beleive most of the people on this thread (going on the Wonder Oct.
7-11) will be meeting at the Mickey pool at 3:00. This is mostly so that our kids can make some friends...I'm hoping that it will make my DD8 more open to the idea of going to the Oceaneer's Lab so that DH and I can at least have dinner at Palo...and maybe go to the quiet pool once!

One more thing...the Dis Board people are able to recognize eachother in DW and on the ships by the lime green Mickey heads. These are just paint chips that you get from Home Depot. The color on the chip is actually called "Alien Green". People attach them to their bags and such so that they can recognize eachother. Does that make sense? I got several and laminated them. We will put some on our door, and I will also put them on our beachbags. Hope this helps!

Just got DD10 to pick out images for our door sign. Now I really should get off this board and get to it.

No question is too silly. I bought magnetic paper only cause I've never tried it and I like playing with new things.
I actually think the door thing is cute, and with my sense of direction, it will help me find my room.

Nassau weather: there's another thread on the main board regarding the weather next week. I think we'll be o.k. I didn't book anything for Nassau but now I have to get off and get my mom some rum cakes. I think it will be fun to walk around and see what there's too see (I understand it's not much and there's a lot of hawking of merchandise, but I'm used to that having grown up where I did).

Monica: remember my tips about bribery...

Two more reports for work and it's DOOR SIGN TIME!

 

[glassslipper2004]

Wow, I can't believe how close this is!

Taryn, Haley, Emily -- Sophie and Rachel can't wait to meet you. And I can't wait to meet everyone, too!

Anyone else on this trip doing Palo Monday night? I started reading a thread about the food there - yum!

Circling back to an earlier post - we are planning on wearing our pirate stuff during dinner, too. I want to make sure not to miss the party - last year, when I went on the cruise without kids, we had late dinner seating and missed the fireworks. Hopefully the show won't interfere.

I don't even want to think about bad weather. Hopefully it will be warm, and even if it rains, just a little here and there -- right?

Have a great trip, those of you who are leaving tomorrow - we will see you on Sunday!

Yes! Bribery! Hahaha! I almost forgot! I think between meeting your daughter and the other girls and a little bribery, she should be okay with the Oceaneers Lab!

 

[HaleysMom2]

Quick Question: I know that we need to have a day bag for the day we board the ship since our stateroom may not be ready for a while, but do we need a day bag for tomorrow (the day we arrive at the resort)? I don't know if the room will be ready when we arrive or not...or if we will have access to our luggage or not. For some reason, I'm thinking that our luggage is taken care of from the airport to the resort, but I'm not sure. Isn't that what the luggage tags are for? Don't know if we will be able to get our stuff soon after arriving at the resort so we can start our day, or if we will have to wait hours for it. I did not plan on packing such a bag for tomorrow...so I hope this is not the case! Anyone know for sure?

I'm glad you found this site. I see you have a 15yo son. My sons are 11, 14, and 16. The pool meet is an informal meet for people who have "met" here. I hope there are plenty of things to keep the teens busy. From reading other reports, I think they will be busy. Hope to meet you there. And don't worry, I haven't made a sign yet either. But we all plan to dress-up for Pirate night, including the boys.
