SCHOOLS OUT!!! May 23, 2010 Wonder Cruise

[mousehse]

Hi Cruise Friends
I can't believe that I am posting this but we are, unfortunately, not going to be cruising along with you all. Don't want to go into much detail, but the timing of leaving home just isn't going to work for us this time. I really hope you all will have a great time and that the FE exchange will be a great success. All of the roll-call and FE exchange info has been updated and if I can help anyone to take over, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Trying to take the positive approach and know that we will return to Disney before too long.

Awwww Wendy, sorry that things just aren't going to work out for you for this cruise. Thanks for taking lead on our FE exchange and DISmeet. It is appreciated. I guess we'll be able to take it from here on in.

Hope you can plan that next trip soon!

Anyone taking over the FE and meeting?
I don't want to bother spending the time and money to make the FE if we are not going to do it.
I would offer,but,since I have never cruised before,I am not sure I would do that great of a job at it.
Any ideas on what we should do?
Cancel or anyone else want to step up to handle the FE stuff?
Hope we don't have to cancel,I am so looking forward to meeting you all,and hope,that even if we can't manage the FE,that we can still meet up on the ship!
See you in 52 days!

LotsaMickey:

I say we're still on. We have the list and we're having a DISMeet at 3pm in the Promenade Lounge. That much is in stone. I'll take on updating of the FE list if there are any newcomers, if that's OK with the rest of you.

JohnPA -- Thanks for stepping up to the plate -- I'm with LotsaMickey, never done this before and just was afraid to take over -- I really appreciate you saying you could handle it for us.

Just wondering -- post #69 has us all, but no room numbers -- are you going to create something that has this, or get everyone's info at the meeting? Do I need to PM our room number to you and an email for you to send a list to? Personally, I'm okay either way -- if it is too much work -- we can just go off the #69 post to figure out how much stuff we need for the FE and print it then add room numbers when we get to the meeting. Just curious -- don't want it to be a pain -- just FUN!!!!

If there is anything you can think of that I could do to help -- let me know.

Thanks!
Steph

Take a look at post 70. It has all the stateroom numbers except for hchic05 and tink576 that are gty status. We can update once onboard and they know their stateroom numbers.

I've put the info into a spreadsheet and was thinking of putting it up on google docs for all to see. You need to create a login for google if you don't already have one though. What do you all think? Put it up there or keep editing here? Only problem is I can't edit the original list on post #70 so I'd have to start yet another post to find.

You all can PM me, I'll set it up to go to my email so I get it on my phone right away.

EDIT - put up on GoogleDocs. Here's the link, you should be able to view without signing in. Let me know if there are any problems.

48 days now! And only 42 until Pam and I arrive at BLT to start our celebration!

There were a number of folks that expressed interest in joining the FE list, but never got back to MISSALLEN or Mousehse with their info. Please make sure to PM me if your name is NOT in the TOP list on the spreadsheet (link is in my signature).

We'll stick with the May 7th deadline for the FE.

[JohnPA]

Hey Coffeeguy48. Hope you make it! Let me know as soon as you know if you'll be participating so we can get your info on the list.

[JohnPA]

Lotsa and MickeyBoat (and others):

Keeping track who are cruisin' noobs so the others will know and maybe offer advice when appropriate.

 

[LotsaMickey]

Sounds great! I will take ANY advice or tips that anyone has!
We have never been on a cruise,so,we have no idea what to expect,what to do,etc.
So please,feel free to offer up ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that you got!
