I received the package everyone was talking about from Disney today. It has a booklet on gifts, the Disney Magic, and a tips for excursions.

I haven't received my package yet that everyone is talking about. I feel left out

I hope it arrives soon. I wonder why they are mailed at different times...hum....

Another question, looking for some ideas on telling my niece about the cruise. I was thinking of getting 4 small gifts and have her open them in order leading up to the cruise. I was thinking about sand & shells, a pirate item, then I'm stuck for an idea. The last one I was thinking of using the postcard we got when we booked that's from Mickey...or ????
Any ideas appreciated! Thanks!

My package arrived yesterday.......what a disappointment! If you've cruised with DCL before, it had no new information. I was hoping to see a recap of the excursions, but all it had was instructions to visit the website. I guess I should take a look one of these days.
I am happy it finally arrived as I was beginning to think that maybe we weren't really booked on this cruise afterall. (In which case, I'd have my trusty TA straighten it out!)

WELCOME HOME, HEATHER!!!!!!

We have owned at OKW since even before it opened. One the few wise decisions we have ever made!

PLEASE ADD SHARON, KAYLAH AND I TO THE FISH EXTENDER LIST!!!

We are in room number 7636....way in the aft.

I have a couple of FE's to pick from....think I'll bring my snorkeling Mickey FE....it has wider pockets!

Will we have a "master list" of all the rooms? I usually take that and make a map from floor to floor....makes it easier to sneak around and drop off goodies.

Thank you!! We are so happy!! We are taking our first trip "home" to SSR since our home resort isn't ready yet. I can't wait to finally go on our own points!!

I've got you added to the list!! (both lists!!) We'll just need the names/ages for everyone (ages for the kids) so we all will know who we are buying for and how many things to get!!

Yeah!! Glad you decided to join in!! I have two lists going right now THIS ONE has names/ages and room #'s along with everything else.

Then I'm going to keep a running list updating it as people post HERE with the names and ages of everyone participating and the room #'s!

Sharon, a Group of girls in a cabin, in the woods, no running water, do they walk to the seven-eleven to take a shower

How does she like roughen it in the outdoors? Everyone been telling me that Gail and I need to check out Bomba's Shack in Tortilla, Full moon crazy baby

I'm trying to post pictures of our fish extender and very simple door signs from last year's western cruise... not sure if they are going to work though!
I made our fish extender with iron on tape only- no sewing!

Partially answering for Sharon....these aren't your typical teenage girls. They've grown up in Cave Creek.....little western tourist town....and followed their dad & uncle around on his fishing/camping trips all their lives. They're beautiful girls, but they aren't foo-foo girls!!

justmestace · 01-25-2009, 12:39 PM

I already have some door signs designed for this cruise, just haven't printed them out yet.

This is our FE and some signs from last summer's Mexican Riviera cruise. I keep a small notepad and pen in one pocket, so someone can leave us a note if they need to.

He's pretty cute. Maybe HE wants to leave me a note??

Heck if all I have to do is drop you a note to have a private dinner, you'll have one by the time you board the ship!! Now how do I tell the wife she will be eating on the Lido deck with the kids while I dine with the Duchess

OF COURSE the wife comes too! I am, afterall, one of the Escaping Moms. It's all about us women.

And by the way, someone needs to clue you in....I am the Queen. Ask my family.

Just don't ask Peter!
