Realfam, the suggested meet is

3pm deck 10 at the backetball courts

. But maybe there's a better spot? I've never been so can't recommend. Or even another time.

*** Updated with Amylia's information ***

amylia403, welcome to the cruise. I'm glad that you're able to make it. Sounds like it's been tough.

For this cruise, we seem to have a small FE group. What we said we'd do is exchange gifts each day (except for the last sad day we all leave the ship) since it's such a small group and short cruise.

I'll assume by now you know what the FE is (just a thing that hangs from the fish ornament outside your door that people can put stuff into). If you search the forum, there's lots of pictures of them.

So, yes, as someone else put it, they're just "small little treasures". No one expects large amounts of money to be spent. I do believe what we agreed to do is a gift per child and one for the room. But I'm sure everyone has slight variations of that in mind.

However, unfortunately, it's pretty late. I don't know if others will have time to add you in. I'm leaving in 60 hours. I think some others may have left already. But I will certainly get you into my list, but I cannot speak for anyone else.

Here's the latest information that I have collected of those in the FE group:

Goofynewfie----- dad (Chris) mom (Kim) 11 boy (Alex), Room 2580

Ladyleslie------- Mom (Leslie) Grammy (Sandy) 9 girl (Julianna), Room 6131

Realfam-------- Dad (Alex) Mom (Michelle) 14 girl (Maggie) 2 girl (Rebecca) Room 5506

Skyman8963-------- dad (Skyler) mom (Jamie) 8 boy (Ethan) 4 boy (Caden), Room 5018

Amylia403------ Mom (Amy), Dad (Patrick), 10 boy (Jacob), room 6086

Did I miss out on anything important? I've never done this either.

 

[amylia403]

Thank you everyone! You have all been so helpful! I can't wait

 

[amylia403]

Sure Our room number is 6086 and it will be me (Amy) my DH (Patrick) and our wonderful DS (Jacob 10)

 

[amylia403]

sorry We are in 6086 and will be at BW the night before and BLT the 2 nights after. We wern't able to budget for theme park tickets, but are looking forward to a great vacation together!

I updated my last post with Amylia403's information.

Okay that sounds good ( i might be a little late - i have a spa appointment at 200pm)

However I'll be real easy to recognize as I'll have a green mickey mouse head on my shirt that says "Do you dis?" (My daughter has one that says " My Mom can sure Dis!")

We are getting closer!!!


We still havent told dd we are going yet!!!! I was sure we would of slipped up by now.... But no we are still holding on to this secret. And its killing me!!!!!

Great to have you amylia we can surely add you to the fishe extender. My wife has most of the ags made up but since justine marie dropped out we can just transfer the stuff to you. Except for the stuff for the girls.
We are also staying at the BW before the trip, we will be arriving Next Saturday and really dont plan to do much Disney until the cruise. We will be at a Waterpark on Wed though and try and relax before the cruise.


Goofynewfie have fun and we will see you soon

did a great job with the FE since to be a good size group to me, any larger and I think my wife would have gone nuts.

 

[PMDR59]

how about 230 at at mickeys kid pool sure there will be nobody there at that time ( jsut kidding)

3pm deck 10 at the backetball courts, might be only time I get up there.

I will have Ohio state shirt on,


wish I was leaving now, still another week to go

Sounds good to me. I'll look for the Buckeye

 

[GoofyNewfie]

I suspect this'll be my last post. Dog show tomorrow and we leave early early early Monday.

I can't think of any recent pictures I can throw up, and I have no idea what I'll be wearing. You could try looking for the tall bald guy that looks like he doesn't know his way around the ship.

See y'all soon.

Oh, PS, the only reason I was worried about hurricanes is that it can delay the boat docking from what I hear. Once I get on the boat, I'm good.

 

[amylia403]

We won't be doing any Themeparks while we are at the hotels either We couldn't budget in passes, but I know my son will enjoy hanging out at the pool and searching for hidden Mickeys! (His faaaaavorite thing to do!) Hope everyone has a safe trip and lots of fun!

 

[skyman8963]

we have decided not to go, boys have been real bad today.

second thought we will go they can stay home.

Amylia403 maybe we will see you at the pool Wed evening. We will be with the 2 little blonde brats.

see you all soon

 

[amylia403]

You know if they get too out of hand you could always dress your yorkie up as a child and leave one behind. I'm sure the yorkie would enjoy the cruise...lol We have never stayed at the BW, but my son has seen pictures of the slide. While we are not giant clown fans (hahahaha) he's still pretty excited about trying it out

I lied. Not my last post after all. We couldn't sleep so got to the airport early. Way too excited. DS came in to wake us up way early.

We're at POR for our 10 days before the cruise. We're park-ing like there's no tomorrow. Even (and don't tell anyone else on the Dis), the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. DS really wants to see that (and maybe me too just a little bit).

We're also going to try for a Busch Gardens trip, but I'm a little worried about the drive. In my old age I'm findin' that driving in major traffic freaks me out.

Anyways, boarding in 5 mins. Gotta run. See y'all soon.
