Sailing the Ocean Blue...October 6, 2012 Eastern Fantasy

Thanks for the reminder Beth!! I didn't even realize we're at the 7 month mark. I can hardly wait. I officially bought my first FE gifts just a few days ago.

Woohoo!!!
Jamie

Woo Hoo Jamie I am getting soo excited and kudos for buying some of your FE gifts, I still have to do that, have a bunch of ideas and will probably start buying them next week...I still have to buy my FE, I wish I was creative enough to make my own...but no I am not (unless I make one of those duct tape ones )

And how fitting was it that the Fantasy arrived in PC on our 7 month mark

my kids would think it was hilarious if someone did FE gifts with duct tape!
I really love to make mine, just need for find some time, and need to get taxes done asap first. I don't like just crafting for the heck of it, it has to be a gift for someone, then I get the most satisfaction.

Anyone check out the webcam at Port Canaveral? http://portcanaveralwebcam.com/ she is SOOO pretty! Any of you techno people know how to grab a still shot? Too dark now but maybe tomorrow I could get one.

Go the portcanaveralwebcam.com and make sure you have it full screen and click CTRL and PRTSC (print screen), go to accessories and click on the paint program and then CTRL and V, which will paste it on the blank screen. Save the original then go and crop just the image so it doesn't have the rest of your desktop image and save that image under a different name. Let me know if this works, if not I will try to get a good pic and post it on here.

Oh and when I was referring to the Duct Tape thing, I meant the actual FE Extender...there is a thread on the Cruise line forum where somebody made a FE Extender out of Duct Tape.

There are some threads running about making your FE with duct tape, and they look good!!

I see it. Refresh your screen and see what happens.

Which post are you talking about? Your last post is still on this thread.

I tried to get a pic of the Fantasy today, but could not get a good shot because of that darn fishing boat in the way!!!

Hi Group!
Just back from 3 days at Disney World. There are a lot of things being refurbished for our future enjoyment, so if any of you will be going prior to or after the cruise, you will be in for a treat. The Fantasyland expansion is going to be fantastic, the "pictures" look great, and you can see some of it is almost done. A lot of Main Street is also being re-done. It will be gorgeous I am sure! Let me know if you have any questions!

I won't be going for a couple of years I used up 2 years of my dvc points for the cruise

Glad you had a great time

We did that in 2010. It was tough, but that's what the points are there for, right? Better to have them than not!

They must know we are coming ... . I'm hoping that some of it will be done by the time we head there. Just amended our booking yesterday to 7 nights at PORS - Royal Guest Room - Magic Your Way Plus FREE Dining package before our B2B.

We never had a dining package before at Disney and DW is so excited ... am busy looking at all the menus of all the various places we can dine at! ... plus staying at the soon-to-open Royal Guest Rooms ... and cruising on the maiden season of the Fantasy ... I don't know which part I'm more excited about ... WDW or DCL??!! ...

What's even more sick is that we are looking at heading to DL a few weeks after we return from the B2B as it has been 16 years since we were last there ... making up for all the lost time we have been away from Disney!

Free Dining and then a cruise? I don't know about you, but I would need a new wardrobe after all that food! Sounds like an awesome vacation!

Thank you for telling us! We are heading to Florida a week before the cruise to go to WDW!! Figured we might as well do it since we will be out there and use my DH airline miles wisely! So excited....but more excited for the cruise I think!

Do y'all know you can call red phone booths in UK Epcot? I had forgotten about them. But as I was digging through my computer looking for something, I ran across their numbers!

I always knew that they worked and have not used a pay phone in so long that I forgot you could actually call them....I think they may be the last pay phones around.

I think it's about time for my Palm Tree to move from the fireplace to the beach!
