Spring Break 2011 on the DREAM

I am getting so excited. We have yet to tell the kids about the cruise. It will be their Christmas present. :santa: I took the Disney Dream logo and added text to it that says "Spring Break on the Disney Dream March 27 - 31, 2011" and had it made into a puzzle. They are going to have to put the puzzle together to figure out what their present is!!!

We booked this cruise on 1/28/2010 and have managed to keep it a secret all year long! I can't wait til the kids find out. They have been following everything about the Dream's construction and float out online. They will die when they find out we're going on it and it's only 3 months away!!!!!:banana::banana:

Had to share my excitement!!!

Very cool! Make sure to video them as they do the puzzle.

It would be helpful for me to have the staterooms listed with the number of adults and children with the ages of the children in each stateroom. We customize the FE gift according to the people in the stateroom. No sense giving things for kids if there are no kids in the room. Thank you if you can provide the breakdown.
 
Yes, I agree. It would be helpful to have Disboard Name/ cabin #, and also # of adults, and children, both sex and ages. Maybe a mini spreadsheet could be made easily and emailed/PM'd or posted whichever is easier. Also any allergies or special information we might need - ie. disabilities or physical limitations. Anything that could affect the gifts.
Thanks for your efforts!
 

hi ~ I have been keeping a running spread sheet with this information on it and have emailed it on request. I update as I get more information and was planning on posting after the new year asking for email addresses so that I could email updated spread sheets to everyone. If you prefer we can start now. Also if you give me permission I will add your email address to the spread sheet.

Please send me a private message with your email address and I will send you the most updated sheet per emails I have received. If you want me to include your personal email on the spread sheet let me know.

You will received an email from eskrick@live.com, Eilis, that is my personal email. I will do this tomorrow as I would like to give others a chance to get this spread sheet.

Take care!

Does anyone have the link to sign up for an FE on the March 27, 2011 Dream cruise?

I just found out about this FE (fish exchange) thing from a friend, but I cannot figure out how to find it on here.... HELP Please!!!

Plus what is the FE? she told me a little about it.:dance3:
 
We are so excited to take our first Disney cruise on March 27 and celebrate 25 wonderful years together. We are taking our 5 year old granddaughter with us. Our son, daughter-in-law and their new baby are also going on this cruise and we would love to get to know our fellow cruisers!
Following this cruise we are going to the Flower Festival at Epcot for a few days. It's going to be great!
:banana:
Not sure if fish extenders are used on the shorter cruises. Any advice for us?

We are excited to participate in the FE gift exchange during the cruise. However, I don't really understand how it works. Can you explain how many gifts we need to bring, how many times we will be giving the gifts, the types of gifts typically given, when they are distributed etc? I'm shopping for items but it is hard to know what items will be popular with everyone. Thanks for the info.
 
Hi everyone! Was in NY over the weekend and stuck in the blizzard! Sheesh here we were going to surprise my parents and we got the surprise. We got home on Tuesday Thank God and of course with everything going on I got the flu! I am planing on sending out the sheet today with all recent updates and information you are looking for. I would love to be able to repost on the beginning page the information but I did not start the thread. I will email the origional thread starter today to see if they would mind updating the origional 1st post with information on where to find info re FE's in our thread.

Happy New Year!

Hi everyone - just booked and paid today:)

Myself (Lisa) and dd (12) are looking forward to exploring the Dream!
 
I've been telling my 10 1/2 year old that her and her friends will have a tween stack hangout and I just read yesterday that it is for 11-13 yr. olds. We are both bumming about this and are wondering how rigid they'll be on the 11 year old age thing. Her other two friends going on the cruise are 10 1/2 too so all are in the same boat!:sad2:

Generally, each family gives one gift on one day. The gifts I have received have ranged from personalized picture frames, bubbles for the kids, pirate related items for pirate night, Disney tattoos and stickers, candy, handmade luggage tags. The possibilities are endless. You will probably want to choose something small because the FE pockets are small and you don't want to take up precious luggage space. I try to make the gift fit the age and gender of the giftee. For example, on my last cruise I did silly bands for the kids and aloe vera for the adults. The babies got tiny board books.
 
Hi everyone! I haven't been on in a while, thought I should check in and catch up on what's going on! I cruised in November on the Wonder with my parents for their 50th anniversary, it was a special time. I loved it! We walked the 5k, if anyone is interested, I can provide details...

I am so looking forward to this cruise in March, I think I have a good idea for FE gifts, I will PM you esbrick for the spreadsheet of people that are participating so I can start my planning.

Back to reality tomorrow, kids back to school, getting into our regular routine again...

Hi everyone! Hope you are all doing well!

Just a quick update! Sorry for the delays in sending out the FE list. I sent them today so please check your emails for an email from eskrick@live.com. :goodvibes Unfortunately the flu and traveling got the best of me! It is the first NYE in years I spent in bed :sick: Well, at least I will be able to make up for it in March right!

Currently we have:

55 Adults
24 Girls
17 Boys

I am still missing info from some people and i have PM'd you for that information and also to confirm you are participating!

Hope all of your holidays and plans are going well!

Best,
E

Usually they are pretty strict about the ages. They would only allow a 10 yr old in if her birthday was within 30 days.
