Sept 20,2011 Wonder Repositioning Cruise

Hey there. We're going to be on the repositioning cruise, and are very excited! I just found out about this site, so hopefully I'm not jumping on too late for a meet-up. Any information anyone has to share for a new cruiser? We have NEVER been on a Disney -or any -cruise. We've got two girls (nine and five), and would love any thoughts, ideas, meet-ups, etc!

Thanks!!!

Welcome!! This will be my second cruise and my daughter's fist..so we're newbies as well

Thanks. I appreciate the recognition.

Still in awe of you traveling with only a carry-on. Wondering too, how long have you been into running?

In other news, I got my hair highlighted today for the wedding and cruise -
You and I will match! I have been gradually going lighter over the summer and this is the blondest my hair has ever been. Takes a bit of getting used to ...but now I really kind of like it!

Tara got home from Los Angeles Sunday so Monday was a nice family celebration.
Now, if only I can get her to UNPACK her suitcase so she can REPACK the suitcase...:lmao:
 

We couldn't wait any longer. Yesterday was the kids' first day of school (all two hours of it) so we did the big 'reveal' when they got home. After the shock wore off a bit, we sat and watching the Disney cruise DVD and then the girls got to go through the pirate stuff to pick out a costume. As expected my 6 year old does not want to dress up. We did compromise and she will wear something at least for a photo...I'm hoping that she'll change her mind by pirate night pirate:

Not sure how we're going to all make it through the next two weeks :cool1: but at least we can all talk about it now rather than dh and I disappearing into another room to whisper!

How exciting, what a great video! That went perfectly and they were so excited! Yay!
 
Pam and Nate, all the best of your wedding day :) If you get a chance at some point we would love to see a picture of you all dolled up!


We are also able to include the newbies to the FE, when we ordered our FE gift, we had to order 100 minimum so we have...ummmm...a few extra :rotfl: Rick, Holly, Angela and Maggie, welcome :)


I have officially started my to-do list for this trip. Took in Steves suit to be cleaned, have to buy him a new shirt and tie as they "somehow" have been misplaced. Oh honey, if it was only that easy to not have to wear a suit again. I also have to also get to a salon to get those nasty greys dealt with. We also need one more Disneyland ticket, does anyone from BC know if BCAA sells tickets? I went to the Disney store in Metrotown and they only sell Disney World tickets for some odd reason.

Today is our first full day of school so I finally get some alone time. I am off to do some housework (fun) then going to go to Chapters for a Starbucks and pick out some cruise reading material:banana:

You can buy your other DL ticket online....it's usually the same as going thru AAA & a tad less than at the gate....

here's the link...

i didn't even realize you had linked the reveal video...so just watched it!!! that was sooo cute!!!! what a great way to surprise them!!! but why is the camera on??? :rotfl::rotfl2::cool1:
 
Thank you!!! :love:

And thank you for the welcome to the Northwest. ;) It sure is a beautiful part of the world, isn't it?! ;)

Your welcome.

And yes I think the PNW is beautiful. But I happen to be prejudice....LOL
 
I'm glad that so many of you are excited for the trip... I'm starting to get things lined up my self and I usually don't pack until the night before.

So a couple of quick pictures.... the first is one of FE gifts and the next is the shirts I made up. Sorry the picture of the pin is so a bit out of focus

ohhhhh those are GREAT!!!! i REALLY wanted to use our cruise logo photo for my gifts, but the company rejected it - had to be my "own" photo...so when you get your gifts from us - you'll know why the photo isn't this one. It IS a photo a took from another Dis cruise though

I don't think NCAA sells Disneyland tickets anymore. We got ours at flight centre .... It was 'cheaper ' then some online sites at $188 for our 3 day hopper. I don't know how much it would be for 1 tix.
 
Or I could have looked at the start of the thread :) Any way we could be added?

Rick and Holly Chisa, Angela (9) and Maggie (5) in stateroom 6048 Deck 6


I think we have some extras too ! It's gonna be fun :)
 
I'm not sure but yes I will be running the Tinkerbell 1/2 in Jan.

i just saw on Facebook that Run Disney uploaded many of the 1/2 photos....have you seen them - are you in any of them?

Oops I meant bcaa. ( stupid spell check function)
 
Well that is disappointing. Disney Online was/is completely out of Mickey Mouse Cruise Lines Captain Plush. How in the world could they be out of that item with 3-4 ships in the fleet?:guilty:

Anyone have any other sources for these items? Know anyone that is cruising right now that could get two and in the mail to me prior to Sept 18th? I'd pay so long as that person isn't trying to make a profit!pirate:

That was cute...

We're a week and a half away from boarding the train. Think I need to get started on making our fish extender? :eek:
 
WOW! What an awesome idea for a FE gift! Those pins are awesome, and your shirt looks great too!
