Welcome to the group

We will have to do a group meet on the first day/night. It would be nice for the kids to meet others their own age. As much as my kids love each other , having someone else in the picture always helps.

I suggested earlier in the thread (and will probably do so again as we get nearer the time) that we try something which we did on our last cruise - a candy/choc swap. We had a DIS meet on the first afternoon (just before the lifeboat drill) and we all bought candy/chocolate from our home town/county/state. It was a great meet and we all enjoyed trying some of the goodies on offer

Changing a vacation because of chocolate. My mom's chocolate addiction is getting a little out of hand.

haha chocolate tastings yes.... martini tasting no. I have to say I'm a cheap date I'll have to go to boozer boot camp before we cruise so I can increase my alcohol tolerance!

Not too worry our group never lets any alcohol go to waste during the tastings even if that means we have to drink it all...

We just booked this cruise last night! Only 509 days to go! (far too long to wait!)

There will be 3 cabins in our group; we are second-time cruisers but the other are newbies.

9052: Sherry (shelbecat), Bev, Casey (dd8)
9054: Dave, Shauna, Alison (dd7), Lindsey (dd4)
9055: Diane, Alexandria (dd19), Amie (dd16)

We will bring the Canadian chocolate for everyone! Also likely participate in the FE as we did on our last Dream cruise and it was a lot of fun.

Welcome aboard Sherry and company!
We'll have to co-ordinate which chocolate to bring so we have a good Canadian variety!

no secret... I just didn't find out myself until midnight on the last night

FYI to my fellow Canadians....Apparently if you are from a country where the drinking age is lower than 21 you just need a parent sign something at guest services and they will add it to their card that they can have alcohol.
