"Once Upon a Dream" 4 Night Dream Cruise 10/16/2011

[buick86]

Is so sad today. My 11 y.o. sons beloved cat Stripey passed away suddenly. I was woken up this morning to my ds crying and yelling Stripey's dead. He was acting fine last night, like his normal kitty self. We have other beloved cats in our home too but Stripey was my son's and I feel so sad right now.
We rescued him almost 4 years ago after our elderly cat had passed away and my son was crying every night in bed for 3 months. He took out eldest cat's passing harder than everyone else. Stripey immediatly took to Richie and "knew" he was his cat. He would meow outside his bedroom door every morning at 6:45 to wake him up fot school. He was only 7-8 years old. We have 2 other cats who are 15 and 16 and are not the healthiest looking! Stripey was so young compared to them and was so strong!

We are so sorry for your loss He looks like a very pretty cat, our pets are part of our family. We lost our choclate lab with the bad dog food few years ago.

The same thing happend to my upstairs neighbor. She went off to work and found her cat gone when she got home.
We had to let my oldest cat go to heaven a few years back and I was the one that had to go to the vet. She was so dehydrated. I knew it was the best thing for her but the death was just like using a human and took me some time to get over.
Now we have two other cats Princess and our baby Midnight whom is the troublemaker!

I am new to this DisBoard, you were the first post I read on the cruise we are taking. What do I need to know and do. We have cruised with Disney 3 other times all 7 day cruises. This will be a back to back cruise because we wanted 7 days.

I am so sorry to hear about your cat. We have 2 old dogs and 1 old cat and I hate to say it but I hope they go in their sleep just so they do not suffer.

On a different note, does anyone on here make fish extenders? I looked on Ebay and only saw a couple. I made one just using super glue and after a couple cruises I do not know if it will make another.

 

[CGalbrecht]

I could make some. I know how to sew very well.

I purchased mine from a fellow Diser http://www.etsy.com/people/StitchesNBows?ref=ls_profile on Etsy. Just click on the link and choose her shop. I also have one I purchased from Ebay from Gradysmom. Both are good quality. I think I posted a pic of the Halloween one I got a few posts back. (in post 82)

Welcome to the cruiseI think if you want to be included in the FE list you have to post who will be going with you, there ages, room number, and food allergies. loveysbydesign is putting a list together and tinkmom2 is looking for a template to make list from a previous cruise. Am i right everyone? Also to check back often to see whats happening with everyone else. We also will be doing the back to back cruise our 3 day is Oct. 20 when is yours?

Any luck finding the format of a list on your computer yet? Scrolling through the post it seems like different people are starting different list and people are asking to be on the list and leaving their information and not getting on a list. Are you going to start this list? some of us are excited thats all

 

[tinkmom2]

No I am not doing the list someone else said they wanted to do it now but I want to wait until a month or two out. I don't have the template anymore for how the list looks. It's on my controller that no longer works. I just used a spread sheet in Microsoft works. I put the Diser name, cabin number(had it according to cabin and deck) kids names, adults names and ages, birthdays or special events, food allergies, and emails so we could all keep in contact and to send out the sheet when it's complete.

Are you going to do this for this cruise how about a list on the dis boards? so the rest of us can see who all joins and the kids that will be on there too. How about all of us work together someone does the list on the dis boards someone does a more detailed list to be sent out by email (the final) list. and someone keeping a separate list so we don't miss anyone. That way one person isn't responible for the whole list, emails, coordination of meeting each other and etc... which by the sounds of it the list will be very long. What everyone think?

 

[tinkmom2]

I think one person should be in charge of the list and we should have only one because it gets really confusing. What we did is had the emails so everyone got a copy and then posted notices on the Dis to make sure everyone is included.
As I stated previously we are going to have a lot of people either dropping or adding this cruise which can lead to a lot of confusion with the list. I will try to look through the emails and see if I can make something up to get us started.
If you all want to PM me with your info(need cabin number, who(ages), allergies, special events etc.. and emails I will see what I can do. I can add you as a GTY room is you don't know your cabin number

I am starting it now but am not getting too far. Some people have not checked in in quite a long time.

 

[Twinprincesses]

I think we should have people get their FE stuff in order in lists but I really enjoy participating with people that are active. While I understand people cannot and do not want to have a little mini chat room I like to know who my stuff is from.

 

[Twinprincesses]

Does anyone know if you can share a cabana with someone else?

 

[tinkmom2]

Does anyone know if you can share a cabana with someone else?

Yes I have heard you can. I was considering sharing with somebody. I hear the cabanas only hold 7 but I have also heard of people paying additional for an extra person. I am not sure how much the cost goes up with a extra person. From what I read the cost could be split between two staterooms. I might call DCL to find out more. I also haven't checked out the cabana thread lately.

We also want to go on the Dolphin encounter in Nassau and that's gonna be a chunk of change too plus Remys.....

Hi folks

Just thought I'd say a quick hello. I'm still working hard at trying to lose a little more weight and shift the last few pounds.

We're interested in doing FE so please add us to the list - not sure who is organising this I'll look up my cabin number - cant remember it right now

We've been saving hard and so far got the money for the flights... stupidly expensive from UK, just gotta pay for the cruises, villa hire, car hire and find some spending money now

Have a nice day everybody

Ok I am confused too. People were asking me to do it too lol Well we now both have a list started lol! Going back through the chats there are a lot of people that haven't checked in since the begining and several GTY rooms (guarntee rooms.) This is probably how the list is going to look for some time So love just keep up the list like you are doing

I had started it last week or so I think when one of the other dis'ers had asked if anyone was keeping track! It actually might be a good idea to have 2 of us keeping the list for now, in case one of us misses someone-lol! Always good to have a back up

Our family would love to do Fish Extenders. Cheryl (me) 42, Jon (husband) 42 I have three kids, Adler (boy) is going to be 18, Walker (boy)will be 15, and Jenna (girl) will be 12 when we go. We have no food alergies, our staterooms are 8002 and 8004 ajoining. We have another family going with us and I think they will want to do this as well. Justin 35 Brandy 34, Their kids are Taylor (girl) 14, Torey (girl) 10 and Robbie (boy) 9 I have their staterooms I just need to find them. They are on the same floor as we are but down the hall.
