The dream christmas cruise dec 2-6 2012

[Madisonsmom926]

Welcome Heather! We are from PA, too. We are in Luzerne County near Ricketts Glen State Park

Hi!! We aren't too far away from each other then! Very cool!!!

 

[Madisonsmom926]

Hi Heather and welcome...you're going to love every minute of it. We also take the kids, but have to nearly beg them to join us from time to time. They love the kids clubs. We make it a rule to have dinner and breakfast together, but still realize this is their dream vacation too. It's nice to have adult time too. We don't get much of that here. I'm a homeschool mom so time with other people is good for both of us. Looking forward to meeting your family. See you soon.

My girls are very excited about the kids clubs. In the beginning of planning Maddie, DD12, kept saying "I don't want to go to the clubs, this is a family vacation". But now after reading and watching things online she saying "well maybe we can go there for a few hours!" Lol. They both are beyond excited!! They keep crossing the days off of our countdown calendar!!!

I will let Jenny and RIchard know since they don't get on here and chat. SHe just depends on me to let her know what is planned since this is their first ever cruise and also their first ever DIsney.

Wow...This is my first ever FE gift exchange so I don't want to make a mistake. I have a count of 38 Adult gifts and 15 Child gifts to give. Of course I will remove my family from the list so I don't have to bring my own gift....lol. Am I correct in my count? Please let me know. I just finished packing all the FE gifts and they had their own suitcase....lol...

that's what I have on my list too. 38 adults (not including my DH and me) and 15 kids.

I'll probably pack a few extra goodies just in case more are added.

I am counting 38 big kids and 15 children, ones who have ages after their names, and that includes everyone. I hope I am counting right. I think I remember SHOEVG & IVYHVC25 are 2 adults each.

THE ADULT POOL ON A REGULAR DISNEY CRUISE CAN BE ALMOST YOUR PERSONAL POOL AREA WITH SO MANY KIDS MANY STAY TO THE OTHER POOL AREA. LAST DEC THERE WERE ONLY 6 OF US THERE ONE TIME. WE EVEN HAD OUR OWN BAND PLAYING . WE HAD A ONE MAN GUITAR PLAYER AND ANOTHER TIME A 3 MAN BAND PLAYING CARIBBEANING MUSIC. ON OUR MEMBER CRUISE IT WAS VERY BUSY SINCE THERE WERE ONLY 200 KIDS ONBOARD. THE LAST 2 YEARS ON THE MEMBER CRUISE WE HAD A BEACHBALL TO WHACK AROUND. I POSTED PHOTOS ON THE THREAD A WAY BACK OF THE POOL COMPARISONS

Sounds like a winner to me!

ADULT POOL ON REGULAR DISNEY CRUISE.

ADULT POOL ON DVC MEMBER CRUISE. WE HAVE SAILED WITH THOSE PEOPLE IN THE POOL ON THE MEMBER CRUISE AT LEAST 6 TIMES.

IM NOT SAYING IT WILL BE EMPTY BUT MORE PEOPLE WILL BE AT FAMILY POOLS. WE HAD FUN WITH THAT BEACH BALL. WELL UNTIL A LADY SITTING AT THE EDGE OF THE POOL ACCIDENTALLY GOT ER E READER SPLASHED. WHEN THAT HAPPENED SHE FRANTICALLY CHASED THE BALL AND BIT A HOLE IN IT. WE FOUND ANOTHER ONE, THE GUY PLAYING THE GUITAR PLAYED OUR REQUEST, SO WE ALL STARTED SINGING THE JIMMY BUFFET SONG, DONT BITE THE BALL.

 

[dvc deernut]

for anyone who doesnt have a copy of the list with all the names including madisonsmom and monual you can right click on the last fe list post and a window opens up and one of the choices is print. Press that and it will print that page. If your still having problems and cant open the email with the list you can always write the list down.

Im just making sure everyone has the list. I have a list here written on paper i put circles beside your names once i have notified you asking if you have the list. Once you reply i fill in the circle. Thats the list im bringing with our fe gifts to do my final check to make sure i have all the fe gifts.

 

[katiebear]

She bit a hole in it?? That seems harsh! Why would you bring an e-reader poolside lol?

Thanks for posting the pics! Can't wait!

It would appear that that Lady has anger issues. If you don't want your e-reader to get splashed then don't take it near a pool!! Just my opinion!!

 

[reigle4]

Mark me off your list our color in my circle...lol I have packed my FE suitecase and at least have one thing checked off my to do list. I am sooo excited. We just booked another cruise (on celebrity) for the beginning of Feb. so now I am a bit overwhelmed with lists. This one is our adults only cruise. I haven't seen my cousin in over 10 years and so we are meeting her and her hubby on the ship for a 7 day Eastern Carribean. BUt first things first...Let's get this party going. I will be counting faries in my sleep

 

[amanda202]

Anyone here doing the Castaway Cay 5K on this cruise?
