Sorry. We closed the FE list in early August. Many of us have made personalized gifts. You are welcome to come to our Dismeet at 3PM in the atrium on sail away day though.

It's getting close now.

Bought 2 new dresses, one for Palo and one for Remy. DH has to try on his suit because he has lost some weight and it may need altering. I also bought some cute running shorts to wear for the Castaway Cay 5k.

Really looking forward to the cruise and the F&W Festival....

Okay, I am definitely behind where I normally am for cruising. Have finally decided on my FE gift. Just got to get it together. Haven't made door magnets yet. Got to find ones I've used before as well.

I'm having trouble getting outfits to coordinate for family photo. Went shopping yesterday and did not have any luck. Hope to find something this week. The next two weekends are booked with football games and marching band contests, so it is now or never.

Can't wait to meet everyone. Ready to start packing, but having all the kids from church over next Sunday night, so my normal packing area (dining room table) will be in use.

We are staying at the Radisson the night before the cruise. Anyone else staying here as well?

Have talked DH into leaving as soon as DS (16) finishes marching at half-time Friday night. Going to stay in Atlanta area that night. I want to hit the outlets and DTD Saturday before we head to the Port area.

Hope everyone has a great week!

....

We might do the 5k if my feet aren't too swollen which happens from all the walking. I have been walking a 5k on the treadmill once a week to get ready for it.

I intended doing some packing today.... but it didnt happen......

I went shopping and then watched tv instead

We that have been participating in this group for the better part of a year decided to close the list in August so we could all prepare our gifts. There has been ample time to participate. Sorry. It's up to each Diser to make their own decision but most every FE group has a deadline.

We are room 7162 on Deck 7.

Sorry first time Disney cruisers and only second time on a cruise ship at all. Just found this website.

We are bringing some goodies to pass out. Guess I'll have to sneak and put some in the kids pouch so they won't be disappointed.

If any individuals are willing to exchange - just message me your room number and we'll make sure to put spread some magic your way.

Not feeling the magic tonight.

What is your's and how many people in your party? Not trying to crash the party, but this is so cool. Never been on a Disney cruise before and this sounds like a fun way to get the kids excited and meet some nice people on board the ship.

Thanks so much for the hotel info. Booking our hotel tonight and then I have to wait till next week's soccer tryouts to finalize our plans after cruise.
Thanks again.

 

[sherlovesmickey]

Wow! I see you guys have been on tons of cruises. Any tips for a first timer?

Would love to meet other Disney fans. Thanks for the invite.
Not meaning to be a slacker, but just found out about this cool tradition. I thought it was like trickortreating that you just put items in the extenders that are out.
Guess I'll just play Santa and shop for some items to put in tmy kids pouch.

If Anyone is willing to participate, we don't have to have the same homemade item that the others have. Really anything is fine. Just the experience. Please pass along your room number and number of people in your party.
We are room 7162 on Deck 7. Daughter 11, Son 6, my hubby, and me.

Guess we'll know how it works if we decide to cruise again. Looks like it must be a great vacation because lots of people have been on multiple cruises.
Counting down the days!!!

See all the theater shows at night.

Do not be early for dinner. If you are all you will have to do is wait in a line. Your table is already reserved.

Do not be afraid to order more than one of the same thing for dinner. You can have as much as you want.

See the comedy shows at night they start normally at 10 or 10:30. They are most fun.

Order mickey bars to your room. You order them by room service. They are the best.

Do you have early or late seating? Early is the best.

Dress up for pirate night it is most fun. Afterward look for the dessert buffet. It is very creative.

Most of all have fun and relax.

We fly in on Friday. We are staying at the Doubletree. On Saturday we head over to Sea World for the day to celebrate their halloween celebration. Sunday we board the Dream for 4 days. On Thursday when we get off are staying at the Merriott Residence hotel. We then head to Magic Kingdom for the day and that night on 10-20 we will do the mnsshp. (mickey not so scary halloween party). Friday we go back to Sea World. On Saturday we board the Disney Magic for the 7 day eastern cruise. When we get off we go the airport hotel and stay overnight and fly out the next morning.

We will be busy. If you have any questions please just ask. A couple of us are doing the 2 cruises. We were on a cruise last year we know what to expect. It really fun. You guys will have a blast.

I have an 11 year old daughter. It's our first cruise so not sure what to expect of the tween crowd. She is going to help me with the FE gift this week. We are getting very excited.

I am the countdown chic. I post the weekly countdown.

I will be traveling with my DH Jeff Our DD Kaitlynn (4) and I. This will be only our 2nd cruise.

If you have any questions just ask there are alot of people who can answer them here.

Anyone with 4 ppl want to split a cabana with us??? If so please message me. The cost to split would be $300 each family. I have cabana 6 reserved right now.

Hi Ladies

Could someone please re-email me the FE List to Broberts@amerisure.com? I seem to have misplaced that!
THANK YOU
Things have been pretty busy over this way but we are getting SO excited for this trip! We made dining reservations for Ohana, Biergarten, and Sci-Fi Cafe for after our trip but we are not staying on Disney property. This is the first time we have gone to Disney and not stayed with them but even with our annual pass discount the prices were outrageous this time!

We're staying off-site too, but aren't doing any ADR's this trip! Where are you guys staying at?

Hey everyone, is there any one that has any extra magnetic paper and can print me off two magnets? My printer has decided to go crazy and is messing up everything! I am pretty sure my DH threw away all our old magnets! I wasted 10 sheets of magnetic paper and only managed to make 3 magnets.
Please PM me if you can and I will send you the pics. They are for Claire's B day.
Thanks
Chris
