Turkey Day Gang 2009

Guess which 2 are me and Larry in that picture...

As for Andrew, sorry Karen, but he was not "little" two years ago....

As for the 12 gty, I believe if you have 4 people in your party, you are guaranteed to get at least some upgrade as the cat 12 cabins only sleep 3, but, as Michelle posted, you will likely have to wait until you get the luggage tags about the beginning of November.

Sherreis, yes my fiancee made it. We planned it out together and she did the sewing. I couldn't wait for her to get it to this point so I could post it!! She is absolutely awesome with the needle and thread, ok the sewing machine does most of the work!!! She has also made a dress for herself for the cruise. She made the flowergirl's dress for our wedding as well.

I remember the group taking a photo for the 2005 cruise also. Great memories!!!

We had a Cat 12 in June and everyone got their assignments at 35 days out. Since this is Thanksgiving and they may wait for late bookings, it may be later but that is pretty much the norm.

Cat 12's with 4 automatically get a Cat 11 or above. Keep in mind that you can only go up 3 categories to the highest of Cat 9 on a Cat 12. After that if they needed rooms, they'd bump Cat 9's to Verandahs and then move insides to Cat 9's... etc.

Even though we aren't completely fiished, here is what our FE looks like (I hope I do this right!!!):

This is fabulous! We so cheated and ordered one.

 

[Morgey24]

Love the FE! I recognize the fabrics from the "fat quarters" stacks at JoAnn's becuase I used a pirate theme, too for mine!

Has anyone booked a 2011 cruise yet? (the Platinum folks?) We are thinking about booking Alaska but 2011 seems SO FAR AWAY... Not sure I want DCL to have my $$ that long.

Dustermom, thanx. As I said, my fiancee did it all.

Morgey, you got it right. We spent about an hour to an hour and a half at JoAnn's getting everything. There were a couple other pirate fabrics that we liked, but decided on the one you see.

Waiting for my fiancee to get back from Philly so we can do our door sign.

Can't believe it is less than 2 months. One month from tomorrow for the wedding and then 4 weeks later is the cruise!!!

Thanks everyone for the PM...

We have a lot of good ideas for the mini navigator...

I will have them at the port (thought we would be there early, but may take the Disney Transportation from Animal Kingdom Lodge, which might put us at the port late) But will have them at the sail away party...


Trying to get a handle on everyone..

Please let me know if I left anyone out

Hey guys,
I have updated FE again and added names to the crewmembers cruising. Have fun!

 

[sherreis]

We're halfway down page 2. Need to do something about that.

[Mickeyhugger]

58 days till the cruise and trying to make it to 5000 posts

Rob

 

[alwayslisad]

we are still going for that 5000 posts. Ok I will help today

 

[alwayslisad]

So Happy Friday everyone - in exactly 8 FRIDAYS many of us will be in ORLANDO - getting ready for the big day!

 

[alwayslisad]

Some of us LUCKY people will be arriving Earlier than that since we are either attending a party at Mickey's Place or visiting with Family at Star Island Resort.

 

[alwayslisad]

We leave NH on Saturday the 14th and drive to Boston. We fly out on JetBlue early Sunday morning to Orlando and arrive at about 10am. We have a condo rented at Star Island for the week - mostly as a home base as we have two things planned. We have a two day pass to NASA and a two day pass to SeaWorld. So that would take up - Monday and Tuesday = Nasa Wednesday and Thursday = SeaWorld - Friday we pack up and head to MCO to meet up with my sister and BIL who will arrive at noon.

We are going to put together our FE gifts and relax and enjoy -

Then Saturday morning we are up and ready for that FIRST bus to the PORT!!

 

[alwayslisad]
