How exciting to have just booked such an awesome vacation!
It must be awesome to travel with your family, especially since your DD lives so far away.
And btw - your granddaughter is just too cute!

There is ALWAYS room for another family!
Hope everything went well booking your cruise. This is going to be such a fun cruise, with so many DISboarders on board!

First cruise! How exciting! You are going to love cruising with Disney. There is so much to do and see - so much FUN!!

As for the FE, could you please PM me everyone's first names, the kids ages and who is in which stateroom. If you already know your stateroom number, that would be awesome too, so I can finalize everything on the list.

Just finished reading through all of the posts. Glad there were only 18 pages.

Dizneeat I pm'd you our information although I think our room number is 6096.

For those interested in gifts from Shirley I did it for my 2 boys (15 and 12 at the time). I was a little nervous as they are older but Shirley helped my select some items and the kids loved it. They really do a great job and will work with you.

Looks like we are the fourth family from NoVA and the third with roots in Winnipeg. Interesting coincidences.

Travelling is me, Laura, husband Richard and daughters Amelia 16 & Emma 14.

The girls are making our FE with Beauty & the Beast representing me & Richard, we will let you decide who's who !! And Alice in Wonderland for Amelia & Tangled for Emma.

We intend to bring lots of UK sweets and Cornish goodies for our fellow FE's

Looking forward to meeting you

Hello all...

We ended up changing our dates and will not be traveling with all of you...

I know it would have been a great time, but daughter decided to take the girls out of school for our cruise!

Good luck to everyone!

Just kidding!!! Seriously, I hope you have fun on your other cruise! I have a twisted sense of humor, but I am sincere.

Let me guess...you're going on the August 31st cruise and save a grand. I wanted to do the same but family said no. I'm always thinking of ways to make the budget last. Good luck!

Hello all! We will be on this cruise, too. Hubby, DD 11 and myself along with another family. First Disney cruise. We previously cruised to Alaska on Royal Caribbean. We are on the 11th deck. Looking forward to it!

I was wondering if people have decided on what they are doing before and after the cruise as well as during it. We are trying to look in to new things that might be fun.

Hi,
I'm meeting up with family at Disney World. I'm on a two week vacation (surf & turf).

 

[linkandclover]

We just changed rooms to 7678. I gave up the verandah for a higher room number and extra spending money. My DH thinks I should have a direct line to Disney because I have been calling daily to make travel changes.

I think we will stay for 2 nights at a resort (maybe go to a park- my kids don't seem to care what we do) and then after the cruise my husband wants to drive a Ferrari (there goes my spending money)

Hi people,


Just checking in to the thread as it's been months since I subscribed and joined the FE list. We are in full on planning mode and have brainstormed FE gift ideas this weekend.

Getting excited now as this is a huge surprise for our kids

 

[indans123]

Wow, to the captains meet up, thank you Lady Leslie for the info. Will you be there? Hope to meet lots of new people and make some wonderful friends
We are busy doing our fish extenders, keeps the kids busy its half term here so they are off for the week.

Before we come on holiday I get the girls to make 'shoe box' money boxes that they decorate Disney style and they earn their dollars by chores for their spending money, That way we all win, I have a tidy house and the girls have money

See you all soon

Laura

We're still planning our pre-cruise activities - my state senator is working on getting us the free Kennedy Space Center tickets, so we'll probably arrive at least a day early and do that. We're also thinking about planning a 2 or 3 day stop at Hilton Head pre-cruise (we'll be driving from Va. to FL) and perhaps a day or so at the Ron Jon resort that everyone keeps talking about.

Post-cruise we have to head immediately back to Virginia so that the kids and I can get ready to start the new school year!

Looking forward to our first cruise together (we had each cruised once before we met). My in-laws are taking the whole family on this cruise (9 of us all together), so very excited! I'm obsessed now with reading posts on what is going on and things to do on the ship. Have to remember I need to RELAX on vacation though!
