Sept 8, 2011 Dream - FE final list complete

[MikellaCinderella]

Time to get this party started!!!!!!


I know we have 4 1/2 months to go...but who's excited? Our adventure is in less than 5 months. I don't know about you, but I started planning this trip in January of 2010. I'm excited!

I finally got my FE and autograph pillowcase for DD in the mail yesterday!! I'll post pics when I get a chance! LOVE how they turned out!!

Cool! Can't wait to see them. I need to get busy making my FE. I think I also decided what I am going to do for FE gifts - not hand-made...but cool nonetheless.

Here are the pics of my FE and autograph pillowcase!! LOVE how they turned out!!! The extra pocket on the FE at the bottom really isn't for anything, lol. I just wanted the extra graphics added.

I'm hoping to be able to do the Castaway Cay 5K on this cruise...although it really depends on how soon I get my arthritis under control and if I'm flaring while on the cruise. I need to be able to start training soon if I'm going to run. But, I really want to do this...even if I have to do it as a fast walk instead.

Who's going to join me?

Do they have beer breaks every 1/2 k?

No. But that would certainly make it more interesting, wouldn't it?

Glad you asked , because I am planning to run the CC 5K twice during our 2 stops at Castaway Cay (we are doing B2B). I run on a daily basis and have run on CC on previous cruises. IMHO it's a great way to start a wonderful day at that small piece of paradise

I'm definitely hoping to do it on the first stop. I might try it again on the second stop (also on B2B) - depending on how the first one goes.

Hi everyone

I hope u are all ok and looking forward to our cruise!!!

A few questions for everyone that has cruised with Disney before ...... tickets .... do we receive our tickets in the post before we go or is it a totally online thing now that we fill in and print off???? We are wondering as we fly out 2 weeks before we actually get on the Dream so if we receive our paperwork through the post then we may already be in the states before it arrives.... i hope this is not the case but i really need to find out.

Fish Extender .... is there a kind of cut off date that we have so i know how many gifts to buy ??? How many people do we have in our fish extender at the moment??? Do we usually get alot more people adding on at the end??

What is the Castaway Cay 5k??? My hubby and I both run a few times a week but didnt know about a 5k on Castaway Cay ... i dont know if i will be fit to do anything but lounge when we get to CC as we will have been at Coronado Springs for two weeks prior!! So will be so tired with all the parks!!!

We are starting to make some tentative plans about our whole Florida holiday now so its starting to become more real which means we can get a little more excited By the time we board the plane at Manchester we will be in an absolute frenzy!!!

See u all soon xxxx

Unless it's changed recently, they still mail the tickets. They come with the tags for your luggage but I'm not sure how much before the cruise they send them out.

Bring on the frenzy!

The cutoff for the FE will be the paid-in-full date (90 days I think). We currently have 8 cabins participating. I will be emailing the current list of participants to everyone within the next week or so - I've been kind of swamped at work...so I will hopefully get to it soon. If there are any FE participants who have not PM'd me your email address, please do so soon.

The Castaway Cay 5K is an informal run the morning we arrive at Castaway Cay. The start time and gathering point will be in the daily Navigator. I've been reading differing reports. It seems that on the longer cruises, they actually give out certificates and water bottles to participants. They don't seem to be doing that as consistently on the shorter cruises. So, no promises on the goodies, but I think the run itself will be reward enough for those who enjoy a good run.

Hi all I'm Sarah and I'll be joining you. I'm sailing solo and it'll be my 5th cruise.

One question-- Do we have any platinum or concierge members who have been able to make reservations yet? If so what does the availably look like for Remy?

Hi Sarah! and Welcome aboard, it is so good to have you sailing with us! I will be sailing with DW and DD(9) we will be doing B2B being this our first leg, 3rd and 4th Disney cruises for us. I am so looking forward to surprising my wife with an adult only dinner at Remy, so I definitely hope there will be availability.

I look forward to meeting you aboard beautiful Disney Dream.

Hi Thanks for letting me know about the FE details, we paid in full a while ago so i didnt know about the 90 day cut off date .... Im looking forward to shopping for some goodies for the FE`s!!

Just spoke to my hubby about the CC 5k and he thinks he may do it but it will depend on the day, I would also like to have a go but one of us will have to keep an eye on the kids and I probably wont be able to wait to get to the beach!!! We cant wait to go to Castaway Cay !!!

See u soon xxxx
