Amc3007 last posted on 10/14 and has room number 2145 and did ask to be on FE list but no activity since 10/14

Princess Kristen last posted on 11/5 and has room number 6042. I think they are planning on the FE exchange since she sent me a PM message.

Teenas only posted once

I am making FE gifts for the first two rooms above since I plan to mail all of the Fish Extenders on Wednesday to Melody in Florida to add to her FE gifts.

What about the Dunleavys are they still part of the FE exchange? On a post I thought she said she emailed a cabin number? I don't want to forget anyone...


I need to double check the things above... just be sure they are right.

Post 500 -

Princess Kristin is definitely part of the FE list- we have been in contact. She is anxiously awaiting her room number. Thank you so much for posting Dunleavys number- been trying to find out that information so I could add them to the delivery list. I can have a couple of the lists in my FE in case you don't have the final list before you leave.

Princess Kristin is here, and we are still in!!! Can't wait, it is coming up so fast We are not on the Delivery list yet, but our room number is on the other list. We are in 6042. Can't wait to have some fun!!!

Making sure the two list are consistent as I type! Have made updates to both lists and will repost them to the website tonight. The FE list is officially closed as most people have their FE gifts organized and ready to go! I can't believe we are so close to the cruise. I am still getting requests for ideas, so if you are still looking for ideas for FE gifts, remember they can be anything you can think of... candy, stickers, tattoos, keychains, magnets, notepads, and anything disney of course. There is a DIS thread that discusses just FE gifts if you are interested.

The other big thing that I am working on... the t-shirts. The company has sent all but a few my way. They should be arriving at my house in the next day or so. As soon as I get them organized and repackaged, I will send them out so they make it in your luggage! If you have not sent your mailing address to me- either by pm or email- please send it to me soon! As soon as I get them in the mail, I will send you a pm with the total cost. Can't wait to see the final shirt! Looking forward to seeing them on deck?

Question: Are we still meeting informally in the main lobby at 3pm?

 

[Snowwhyt]

Please, I need someone to type to me r e a l l y - s l o w l y please.

Question #1
Are we meeting in the place...
1) where we get our room keys before we get on the ship, before we walk threw a big white set of ears?
Or
2) on the ship near a big sets of stairs, a big holiday tree and I'm not sure what the rest would look like or which deck this lobby would be located?

Question #2
1) Are we wearing our shirts to the ship so a few of us can mill together in this meeting area and be found in a crowd?
2) Did we have another time set aside to wear the shirt?

I'm up for meeting in the main lobby at 3!

Herrqsmee- thanks so much for everything you've organized

Can't believe how soon we leave

How fun is that! Back to Back!

I've been checking out the weather, to get ready for warm/cold or wet/dry apparel. I sure hope not, but it looks like your Wonder cruise could be kind of wet for you.

Have you been on a rainy cruise before? With as many times as you have cruised you must have had a rainy day or two. What things are you planning if you have several rainy days? I know you have several kids listed for this cruise. Do the kids get bored during the rain? It seems several children's things are often planned for outdoors.

Does the pool close if its raining or only rain and thunder? Do they do more inside activity's? Would you recommend upgrading if we find out it's going to rain the entire time? We plan to use our room as just a place to sleep and shower. I currently have no plans to entertain there.

What do we pack if the rain continues? Rain boots & rain coats, decks of cards?

Sorry, I guess I asked lots of questions. I'm sure you have lots to do to ready.

This will be our families 4th Disney Cruise... we can't wait either... most of the times we cruised (once at Christmas) it was beautiful. I have friends that have never been to castaway cay because of weather. That won't happen to us! We like to play the games in Diversions. During the day kids can go in... at night it is strickly a bar. I have daughters 11 & 14.

HerQSmee thanks for all you have done with the FE lists and the T-shirts.

I am up for a meet, but I will be super easy to find.

I will have the large white bandage over the right side of my face by my eye.

I had to have suregery yesterday and luckily I did not need reconstructive surgery today as they first thought I would. But I will be sporting a lovely white bandage for the next 4 weeks....and no Pelican Plunge for me.

So just look for the lady with the big bandage


Thanks again HerQSmee

Would be so bummed if we missed Castaway Cay. I see it as a third of what our vacation is about.
I hope we will have the chance to have our daughters meet at 3pm when we get on the ship(if its "on the ship" lobby is where we meet).

I hope your eye we be better soon! How long do you have to wear the patch? And can you still swim, etc. Or can you be in the sun and wind?

 

[Disney Fans]

I agree that meet up at 3:00pm is fine, but if we don't make it due to running behind on things, we hope to meet everyone later or off and on the cruise!

 

[Namsupak]

Michelle- Sorry to hear about your eye, but what a wonderfully relaxing way to recover Feel better!

 

[Snowwhyt]

If someone misses the meet & greet on Saturday, let's plan a meet the next 2 days at 10:30 am?
We could talk about the things on the navigator for that day. Maybe arrange to join someone at an event later or try something that comes "highly recommended" from a well traveled friend who has already enjoyed an event on a prior cruise.
Come if U can for 15-20 minuets, both seasoned and newbie cruisers. Maybe Thursday morning also.
I figure if we set a time, try to meet if we can. Not able to go one day, no big deal maybe catch the group another day!

I've been sent a Navigator from the Oct 23-30 Eastern Magic. I have not opened them all yet its in several emails. If anyone would like them forwarded from me please PM me your email address so I can keep your address off the public site.

Single digit dance for me!! I am actually off by one day because I count it from the day I can LEAVE! LOL

8 more days, 8 more days! and my favorite, the one I am actually doing right now:

Edited to add: I don't know why my ticker is showing 7 more days, but I am not changing it. LOL

 

[scornell]

Both my daughters, their children and their husbands will be with us on this cruise. I am really looking forward to this. First they are excited about spending time with us. Second they made time to spend together. I am truly blessed that our family enjoys being together.
Put that together with how well Disney does every thing, what else could you ask for? Can't think of anything.

Steve

PS: I even like my sons-in-law. So look for the happiest 6'6" 70+ guy on the boat

 

[Disney Fans]

hummm How is the weather looking next weekend?? I hope good!!

I was looking at the 10 day forecast, so not quite into the days we will be on the islands yet, but as of the 20th it looks like it is forecasted to be highs 85, low 78. Niiiiiiiiiiiiice!

If you ordered t-shirts, please pm me your email address and mailing address.

Several of you requested paypal. If you previously contacted me through email, then I have all the information to send you a paypal payment request. Let me know if you can't do paypal. We will use snail mail to cover those payments. Shirts should be arriving on my door tomorrow. Looking to send them out ASAP so please get me the information as soon as you can.

Can you all believe how close it is getting. One week from now I will be on my way. I made it through DD's birthday party of 12 kindergarden girls having a day of beauty in my family room. This weekend is serious organizing and packing. I am worried about all the FE stuff taking up a lot of room. Has anyone ever shipped a box to their cabin? I read all the directions in the FAQ thread but worry about the box not making it.
