SCHOOLS OUT!!! May 23, 2010 Wonder Cruise

[JohnPA]

Quick FE question.
Are we supposed to put anything saying who it is from or anything? And when do we pass them out,AM,PM,mid cruise,each day,end of cruise?

Just want to be prepared is all!
See you all soon!

Yep.

Basically any and all of the above. From what I've read, you can deliver anytime, one day or all days. We are giving one handmade gift, and that will include a card, sort of. Then we have some smaller gifts that will be dropped in from "Mickey" occasionally.

OH AND - 9 MORE DAYS! Single digits now.

Great! Thanks so very much! Can't wait! I am going nuts!!

I just checked the ship layout,and noticed that the promenade is the deck on deck 4? It looks like it circles the whole ship,I was just wondering if there is a place on the deck we should meet,like by a store or cafe or something?
Just wondering,want to make sure we are in the right place!

Take a look at deck 3. There's a lounge called the Promenade Lounge (thanks DCL for making it confusing). I believe that's where it was suggested we meet. It's by the aft elevators, in between Triton's and Parrot Cay. Here's a link to the deck 3 layout.

My son is making some magnets for me and I'm having him make a DISGreen DIS tag with JohnPA on it. Should be easy to spot me if I can find a place to put it!

Thanks so much! Glad I asked,I'd be wondering around deck 4 LOL
What is AFT? LOL Sounds dumb,but,I am not a boat person,and have never cruised!

How do you make magnets? I have seen photos,and can't figure it out!
Do they make magnet paper for the printer or something?

Thanks again! Prom. LOUNGE deck3! At 3! LOL

AFT is the back of the ship.

Yep, they make magnet paper. My son is a graphic artist, but we sort of got our signals crossed. I called them magnets, so he figured they needed to be shrunk to 'fridge magnet' size. They're still nice though. Some of the magnets he printed on sticky paper and then applied to sheet magnets. They'd probably stay on a car going 80!

One week! Only ONE WEEK! We leave tomorrow to start our vacation at WDW.

 

[LotsaMickey]

Awesome! I will have to find some and try and make a few! I like the sticky paper idea,sounds easier for me LOL I was going to print picutres and just glue magnets on the backs LOL

So excited that there is only one week left to go!

 

[LotsaMickey]

5 more days!!!! I am more then ready for some sun!!!!

5 more days!!!! I am more then ready for some sun!!!!

Not a lot of sun today down here, but HOT! Great day to sit by the pool and drink Mai Tai's! MK yesterday for a quick bite and some ice cream. Neat to walk from BLT to MK. No buses to wait for! Can't wait for cruise, but don't want to rush it since it will mean that the first half of the vacation is over.

Hit the Outlets today for a pair of khaki's and a pair of shorts. Ended up with a bit more, but at 60% off, NO PROBLEM!

Look for me at the Promenade Lounge. I'll be the one looking lost!

 

[LotsaMickey]

Glad you are having a good time!
Yes,I heard the weather is very hot down there today!
My aunt works at WDW,she said it was unbearable today!

I will also be a lost looking person waiting for our meet LOL
But I am way to excited!
See you all in about 3 days!!

 

[disneycr8zy]

Leaving today - see everyone tomorrow!

 

[JohnPA]

Hope everyone made it home ok. We checked in to Jambo House around 10:30am but the girl at registration didn't like the room they had us in, so made a call and got us a nicer room. BUT, it wasn't available until 1:00pm. Ran into one of our tablemates walking around.

Booked cruise for 5/22/2011. Wonder if they have a meet thread yet

 

[LotsaMickey]

We had such an amazing time! Will do a report,as soon as I figure out how to post pics LOL

Can't wait to cruise again!

Coronado Springs was beautiful,room was amazing!

Am now a pin trading addict!

Got home last night around midnight,rough flight,went by a lot of storms,not the best way to end things,but,we made it home safe.
Came home to ours boys,and our 5 year old who came down with ChickenPox 2 days into our trip!

Great to be home !

Thanks to everyone on here with all the helpful tips and answers to our questions!
It was so awesome to meet you all the meeting,and get to know some of you throughout the vacation!

Can't wait to see everyone's TR's!!!

 

[JohnPA]

First day back to work. ARRRRGH

Booked 4 day for 5/22/2010. Wanted to do a 5 day double dipper, but we're taking Pam's brother and his wife. He's more apprehensive about cruising then Pam was, so only 4 days.

GREAT to meet you all!

(the things from us are luggage handle covers to make it easier to spot your bags at the baggage claim)

Thanks for all the great FE gifts, we had a blast.

 

[LotsaMickey]

Awesome!
I can't wait to take our boys!
We will also be doing a 4 night,and we may be bringing my grandparents as well,and going in on the suite on deck 13 I believe?? Not sure,but it has 3 rooms and 2 full baths,think it would be perfect for 3 kids and 4 adults LOL

Thanks to all for the awesome FE gifts!We did the frames,hope they come in good use and remind everyone of the magical time we all had!

The luggage straps are a great idea! I knew it was some sort of strap,now it all makes perfect sense!What a clever idea!
Also,please let Pam know,her needle work was Incredible on those scented pouches! I was very amazed!

Also,got a very beautiful,hand painted I do believe,candle with Tinker Bell on it!

The Hand Towel from J.T and Paul,,,just all these beautifully done hand made gifts,it was so cool to see what people can do! So,thanks to everyone for all the time and effort on the handmade gifts,and to all the thought on all the other gifts,the snacks,the fun lighted jewelry,it is all so awesome! We were so happy with everything we got,and our boys loved everything we showed them! Can't wait to do it with them next time!

Hope we all can keep in touch,share our stories from this cruise and cruise's to come!
Nice to meet you all!

Kristal and Tony Tinsler

Sorry I'm posting this so late after returning...been crazy busy.

We would like to thank everyone for all of the wonderful gifts we received. The best was the friendships that we made.

Speaking of FE gifts....we've been told by a couple of people that they had issues with the cds. I don't understand it because we tested them...maybe it was a bad batch of cds or an issue with my drive. If you will PM me your address, I'll will make a new cd and ship it to you.

Here is a pic of all of the gifts we received. (You can click the photo and it will take you to a larger image.)



Below are links to the pics from the cruise. While I took about 3500 pictures, there aren't THAT many posted.

Day 1

Day 2 - Nassau

Day 3 - Castaway Cay
