[goofieslonglostsis]

Welcome Pam!

You can add me to the fish extender list. At the moment I've got cabinnumber 7631. (still not giving up hope of being able to upgrade to 6654 )


Crystal, it just goes to show yet again that great minds think alike. I was thinking the same thing, although you'ld have to replace the Atlanta-part for a Netherlands-part.

Deadline for signing up is Monday June 15, 2009. Names will be put into a hat and drawn from there. No changes as this gets to complicated. If children would like to sign up, we will have a separate hat for them.

I would encourage people to put ingenuity into their gifts - and to hunt the bargain tables and racks for gifts that may qualify. There are lots of options out there, so have fun with it. There should be at least 1 nice gift with a minimum of 4 gifts. The rest is up to you, if you choose to do more gifts or just the minimum, the important thing is that you have fun. A gift amount limit will be determined and posted here....so check back often!

Secret Mickey Reveal will be on Thursday October 1 at 2:30pm in the Promenade Lounge. Be sure to be there and find out who your Secret Mickey was so you can thank them for all your goodies!!

Lanyards and Name Cards - PM Sftnslky, Maggie62677 or lexiconjoe with your name, DIS name and how many you want to order. Let us know if you need one for a child and how many. We will look into getting shorter ones for the children.Deadline for signing up is Monday June 15, 2009

Wristbands - Please contact Spectrum-Turbo if you would like to sign up for a wristband. Design to be determined.

FE = Fish Extender Gifts - This is a fun "game" that was started several years ago by fellow DISers. For those who want to give gifts, please use the roster for names and locations of people. Participation is voluntary and you are not required to give anything to get anything!! All you do is purchase small gifts to put into the FE....this is usually done secretly. Some ideas of gifts are magnets, postcards from your state, keychains, pirate themed trinkets, stickers, candy, personalized candy bars, etc....This might be a good time to stock up on bulk items since we are in the Halloween season. Items do not have to be expensive. Just use your imagination and creativity. Please PM Disney Sweetie or Fire14 and we will add you to the FE list. Deadline for signing up is Monday June 15, 2009 Names highlighted in RED are participating in the FE.

List of People on Our Cruise


5. Crystal_27 - FE
Georgia

Just wanted to include my stateroom number for the list as well - 6634.

 

[Disney Sweetie]

Ok guys.....I just added everyone to the list but realized that this had already been started. Please accept my apologizes as I did not mean to take over what had already been done by someone else.

I did put an FE by the ones I know had said they were doing the Fish Extender.

If you would like for me to add to my list with your names, cabin numbers, state and if you are doing a FE, just PM me.

Pam

 

[Fire14]

Welcome Pam!

You can add me to the fish extender list. At the moment I've got cabinnumber 7631. (still not giving up hope of being able to upgrade to 6654 )


Crystal, it just goes to show yet again that great minds think alike. I was thinking the same thing, although you'ld have to replace the Atlanta-part for a Netherlands-part.

Bring me some Dutch Chocolate and some klompens.

 

[goofieslonglostsis]

Bring me some Dutch Chocolate and some klompens.

Be carefull what you wish for with the klompen. Before you know it, you'll have to walk around CC on a wooden pair.

Chocolate, don't even get me started, drool! I've got a fridge full of it (gotta love all those people that don't bring healthy stuff when your in the hospital, but the good stuff ) but aren't allowed to eat it yet. Talk about torture.

Our chocolate aint bad though. Nothing can beat real belgian chocolate, but we sure are in the top 10.


Disneydreamin; upgrading, great for you! What cruise are you doing in october?


I just mailed our TA so she can make our ADR's for our december WDW trip, finally the 180-day window came up. Nice and all and it sure hightens the excitement about wanting to hit that 45-day window so I can try to get my hands on a Palo brunch ressie.

 

[goofieslonglostsis]

PS; weird possibly stupidish question coming up; what is the scoop on different flavors of tea? I mean the hot version, not icetea. I've seen all kinds of herbal flavors available at WDW, so those would probably also be available on DCL. But how about fruit flavors? Are those available in the US at all? If not, I'll just have to take some of my own bags.

I recall seeing a big "box" of teas offered at some point during our cruise (Palo, maybe??) so I have to assume that there is a selection of teas onboard. And, yes, fruity teas are definitely available in the U.S. *Sigh* I wish I could make myself drink tea. It's so much more healthy than Diet Coke.

I'd do it!!!! and have friend and DH take pictures too. I have done my fair share of klompen dancing. Just give me fair warning so I bring socks LOL.

 

[disneydreamin247]

Disneydreamin; upgrading, great for you! What cruise are you doing in october?

We are on the Wonder 10/23-10/26.

 

[goofieslonglostsis]

Thanks for the info, Crystal!

As we tend to say; you must have been hit in the head by a windmill one time too many, which would also explain you living Holland. Just think about the look on the TSA-guy checking my luggage and finding a dozen pair of klompen in there.


Disneydreamin; the 4-day, not bad. If I could, I would hide in your suitcase.


Do you guys know that feeling of wanting something, getting it, but not getting the 'right one'? About 3 weeks ago or so I got a pincode from disney destinations. Woohoo, 40% off! Darned thing just didn't fit our december trip but was for april and such. And today I get another pincode. And yet again; 40% but not usable, as it is for august and september. I love that the pincode-fairy seems to know to find my email adresses (came in different addresses), but boy oh boy, I want one for december. Come on pincode-fairy, 3 times is a charm?

I'll be crossing my fingers for you, Hon! Since you first got one for April and then for August/September, perhaps Disney is now gearing up for a December pin-code release? Anyway, best of luck!!

I updated first post let me know if I need to add or correct anything.

 

[aristocats_lover]

Hey all! We are planning to do the fish extender too...I thought someone said list would be started closer to the cruise so I missed this!

We are in room 6582.

Are we doing any kind of theme for the gifts?

BTW, I think we need to come up with a cruise name/logo! I've seen other groups with really cute ones. I'd be happy to put some possible logos or graphics together once we have decided on a name!

A group logo would be cute IMO. I stated I'd do a FE list closer to cruise. As for Theme I was going to see what kind of cute things caught my eye.

A logo/name would be great, if you ask me. No inspiration here yet, though.


I don't know if we're going with a theme? I've decided to go with a dutch theme. Enough to pick from and I kinda like it to play a small version of Epcots World Showcase on DCL.

Love the picaroon pirates capturing the caribbean. I know the trip will get here sooner than we know but right now the days just seem to be crawling by. So glad Thumper08 has made reservations. Are most of you eating early dinner or late dinner. We have always done late - but I am thinking about early - Just don't know. I am wondering how much weight I can lose so I can gain it all on the cruise. Well - heading off to Austin in the morning for 2 days of hearings. So I guess I should get ready. Hope everyone is doing well

Best to all
Mal

Another vote for you favorite!!!


Mal, I've got early diner rotation. Not only am I used to eating around 6 pm, but to start somewhere around 8/8.30? That would mean your not finished until 9.30 or later? That would mean feeling like a stuffed turkey when I go to bed! And not to mention running the risk of eating a snack too many before diner and not having the space for a diner I would've loved. No, I'm more of the 'eat early, so I can have a 'late' night snack while on vacation'-type.

Weight, hmm don't even want to think about that one! Allthough, after 9 days of WDW I came home lighter and ate like a horse. And it's not like I get the walk-it-of-excersise. I think I've lost enough weight (about 20 pounds) in hospital last month to be on the safe side for pigging out on the cruise, but knowing me it'll be back on even before our WDW-trip. Good luck in Austin!
