Steven - I am sorry the FE lists have become confusing, but we are a group of near-strangers going on vacation, not a military unit. We are all just doing our best to keep all the balls in the air.

Folks were encouraged to add their own information to the Master List, FE 1 page. That list was not managed by anyone in particular. I can't say why you weren't included there, but I added your name and new room number to that doc after you posted that you had returned to this sailing. The mini nav is the document that is on lock down so that everyone had time to print it out and take it with them.

With so many ways to communicate (the first day meet up, Stephanie's board) I am sure your information will get around, along with the info for other folks with recent changes.

I am looking forward to giving and receiving FE gifts. If we can all cut each other a little slack, we can have a great trip!

---I was responding to a query by Dishy24 - not being able to find my information. As stated, I was not a (last minute) addition, but rather, I was on both lists for quite some time (hence, my confusion).

So, with two lists containing separate information ... a third list is generated for distribution. I can see how it can be confusing. I am not sure why one of the three lists was locked down - anyone can print from a live list at any time. Asking for a correction to be made (not an addition) is not unrealistic - but rather - common sense. Expecting 351 people to run around the ship (instead of making an online correction) does not make sense to me.

I don't mean to be rude, but if there was an issue with accuracy with list 1 or 2, it likely should have been addressed before publicizing list 3 - don't you think? It seems as though I am a fair target for others to blame. If there is a problem with the information - deal with the problem, not the messenger.

I feel like I am going to be sick with stress (not literally). They keep adding more reports and tasks that I need to get done before I leave tomorrow!!! Saturday just can't come soon enough.

I love them. I am rooting for them to win. I was kind of sad to see the father daughter team leave this week though.

Me too, on both counts!

We're MARRIED!!

CONGRATS!!!!!!! That's AWESOME! And I can't wait to meet you both

I think was meant was breath! Relax! You are going to be on vacation in less then 48 hours. All of this stuff will work out one way or another. Isn't that a great reminder for all of us! Myself included!!

Steven--There was a mix-up with the master list a couple weeks back and we were all asked to re-enter our data so that one person didn't have to do it. That's probably when you were lost but glad to see that you have returned.

Let's all take a deep breath. Even for those of us flying Saturday morning it is really only HOURS away.

My friend, Lorrie, who is sailing with me is expecting a new grandchild the day we return. Has anyone ever been contacted at sea on the emergency satellite phone number? Can her husband leave a message on our stateroom phone if we are not in the room? Is the $7 per minute charge on both ends? With all the things we are planning to do and the time changing I can't imagine being lucky enough to receive that call.

We are leaving out of Philly on US Airways on Sat. at 6:40am. Anyone else on that flight? Looking forward to meeting everyone. Can't wait. Almost packed but still getting panicked calls from Lorrie. Poor girl has to work through Friday, saving all her days for the new baby.

Here's a Hug for everyone.
Karen

I think the only one who has to be there for the baby to be born is Lorrie's daughter But looking forward to the happy news is fun, too.

(Wondered why they were calling you shore-to-ship about this) - Then I went back and re-read your post and saw that upcoming grandma could miss the birth because she was off having a jolly old time at sea and would like to know how daughter and grandchild were doing.

You don't know how many things I've missed on this thread - I'll be reading along and see a post in quotes and think, "where was that?" and go back and see info I totally missed.

Let that baby stay in til its due date!

I just got the ok to leave work tomorrow at 330p

Will drive home from work, W&M transportation will pick me up from there to go to Hertz

WOOO HOOOO! I'll call you on your cell when I land to see where you are.

In fact, I'm still not finished making the FE's . I got most of it done, my friend is going to help me even if she has to work on it while we're driving down tomorrow to the hotel.

Kristi

Don't forget you have volunteers to help on the ship if necessary!

Hi all. We are on the Westbound TA, but have friends on this cruise. Just want to say to you all to have a wonderful trip. Look after the Magic for us!!

Thanks Marilyn!

Lunch break at work...desk is in pretty good shape...still hoping to leave early.

Karen, you could have already looked into this but Cell phone may be her least expensive way to take a call. I have AT&T, my per minute cost inboard DCL is $2.49. I think the main question will be if we get reception in the middle of the Atlantic. I plan to leave my phone off (Definitly Data Off) but will check it every few days. When it is on, incoming text are free and outgoing at .50 cents. Not sure how tech savvy your friend is but this could be a alternative solution.

See everyone Saturday! I'm working tomorrow so I'll be sound the boards.

 

[Happy Goofy]

Congrats to the newly married couple. Will see you Friday at the hotel.

My DH won't be home til 11:00 tonight. He's packed except, ....
0645 flight, in the morning, no sleep tonight. Anyone else going to be up tonight to keep me company and so we can start the 5th thread?
Lauren- I tried to PM you but it won't go through.
Cheers, Jennifer

I'll be up, but I'm in the wrong thread... I'm on the May 15th Med cruise. Figured I have read so much already around here that I might as well start reading about the other cruises too.
