September 22, 2012 Fantasy Eastern "From Fantasyland to the Fantasy"

[kpadalik]

Guess what came today

We got ours today as well! Put it in my pile of cruise stuff. Also finished printing most of my magnets tonight. Had many of them left over from our last cruise, but had to print up some new Fantasy-specific ones

I can't wait to see the Tube. Having been to London, I'm looking forward to seeing all the details Disney is known for.

Question: Does anyone know details about the "Rainforest Room"? I've heard it mentioned, but there's not a lot of information.

I have never been to the Rainforest Room, but I've read about it. Apparently there are scented shower/steam rooms, heated tile loungers, hot tubs (I think they only fit two people in them) that look out onto the water. It's supposed to be very relaxing. They used to offer a day pass for $15, but I thought I read somewhere that they are only selling the week pass now. And you sign up for it on the ship, not ahead of time.

Question: Favorite specialty drink on the ship?

My favorite is the Bon Voyage!!! Second would be the Konk Kooler.

I've been researching that a lot. It's one of the extra pay things that gets my interest. You can buy 1 day passes ahead of time $15 + $1 fee. (At least it's still listed on the website) You have to order by fax/mail/phone. Go to in room gifts and shopping then onboard gifts and amenities between the Halloween candy and the water.

I did this successfully last week. Booked one one-day pass no problem!

I love a virgin Miami vice when I cruise. Makes me feel like I'm on vacation.

Question: What, if anything, are you dropping off at guest services for the characters to sign?

I'm hoping that it's not too late to sign up for the FE. If not, please sign DD Lindsay (turning 25 on the 26th) and myself, Bev, (turning older on the 23rd) who doesn't have our cabin assignment yet.

Thanks.

Five weeks from today

Hi Bev,

No problem! I have added you and Lindsay to List B!

Thanks! Jen

Hi Everyone,

We have had a couple of FE changes today.

We had an addition to list B (see above)

And a removal from list A- the Hollandmiller family has changed their dates and will now be cruising the week after us.

The master list has been updated to reflect these changes.

Happy weekend, only 4 more Saturdays to get through!

Question: What, if anything, are you dropping off at guest services for the characters to sign?

Last year we bought a Mexican Riviera t-shirt in the gift shop and took that for signatures. I hope to do something similar this year along with a 9" black vinylmation and silver sharpee.

Question: What shore excursion are you looking forward to the most?

Love the Q&A....I will admit, I don't get on here that much anymore lately, I have been on the FB page more often.

Shore excursions: The Champagne Catamaran snorkel & sail in St. John...hoping to snorkel with some turtles!

To answer the "what to drop at GS to sign"...I have a print of the Fantasy with all the characters that I received from watching a Samantha Brown webinar that I want to have signed. I may drop off 2 more photo matts as well. Not 100% sure on that one yet.

Question: what ON BOARD "excursion" are you looking foward to the most? (i.e. spa, tasting class, Palo/Remy, etc)

Hi Lisa - if I am looking at this correct, there is really only 1 new cabing on the new "B" list that wasn't on our original A list, correct? So the total rooms is still 36 since we lost the Holland Family and added Bev & Linda. Right?

You can add us to both lists, I will have more than enough of our gifts so we can spread the pixie dust to everyone on the B list as well. It was actually cheaper to buy more than I needed!

We are going to drop off a frame matte. We did a very wide picture frame before and it was a very smooth surface some of it smeared. Not super noticable. We like the frame idea the best. We have pillow cases and tshirts but the frame is seen everyday

I love a virgin Miami vice when I cruise. Makes me feel like I'm on vacation.

Looking forward to the mixology class in the skyline!! Heard great things about this. May have to do two if offered on different days!!!

Question: which restaurant are you most looking to experience?

 

[amazedbymickey]

Are there any secret areas (like deck 7 aft on Magic)?

 

[DLW8]

I was reading a thread on the DIS where there was an active group that called Disney and got their own private mixology class. I know there are a bunch of us that wanted to do several of the tastings, so didn't know if we could get a count on a specific one and see if we can get a private one? Thoughts?

Awesome! Will do!
The process with our gift sounds similar to yours, I think great minds think alike!!!
