We'll all be chatting in person soon!
Hey! Should've mentioned it during chat but better late than never.
Packing tip for embarkation day. Think about what you want or need before your checked luggage arrives. We've had checked bags show up as late as 4:45-5:00. I do not like to run to the laundry room to iron my dinner clothes. I'll pack my dinner sundress in my carryon so as soon as I get to my stateroom I can send it for express pressing. Then when my luggage arrives and the express pressing comes back I can send out my other stuff for the rest of the cruise for regular pressing service.
If you want to lay out or do anything that requires different clothing, if you need meds, etc. be sure to put it in your carryon. You will be able to go to your staterooms around 1:30 but your checked bags may not arrive until later. Just a heads up & food for thought.

Great point! Although I'm personally more concerned with having a bathing suit and getting to the pool than pressed clothing. Lol!Hey! Should've mentioned it during chat but better late than never.

Yeah, the swimsuit is a bit more obvious. I really do hope to actually get in a cruise ship pool and/or hot tub on my September cruise(s). 5 cruises and I've only ever dipped my toes. What's wrong with me????? Lol!

Has anyone received their Mickey Mail yet?

One Little Spark...
Not at all on topic with your post, but having dealt a lot with Disney Travel, Front Desk people, and others at Disney (not sure what depts. exactly) trying to coordinate my MagicBand delivery (which, was a complete debauchle, I get into that in another thread later...)
Anyhow...I've learned that a lot of them have never heard the term "Mickey Mail"...because it slipped when I would say "you all shipped my mickey mail to the right address" "Um, Mickey wha...?" "Er...my welcome packet." "Oh."
Anyhow, just thought I'd toss in a random comment about that. <grin>

It normally comes around 40-45 day mark. Atleast that has been my experience
It's a lot to mail out!

That should be anyday now!
So, I'm off across the pond tonight, and when I get back, it will be only four weeks til our cruise!!
When I find Wi-Fi, I'll check in here to see if I'm missing any important news or tidbits, but y'all prepare for the onslaught of my newbie questions when I get back. Will I be missing any dates to sign up for cruise activities while I'm gone??
I will instagram from Ireland siobhan730 on instagram for anyone interesting in following the scenery.

Have a great time!! I always wanted to travel to Ireland and visit the land where my ancestors came from (My grandfather is a Feeney and my grandmother is a Mullen. VERY Irish!! lol)
Don't anyone throw me in. I can't swim!!
For the most part the pools are fairly shallow. Plus, they're so small you can't get away from the sides easily. But nobody shall throw you in or they'll have ME to deal with! Grrrr!!!

Safe travels to you! Have so much fun! Can't wait to see Ireland on Instagram! Definitely will be more interesting than the antics of my little dog. LOL!
Nothing to miss so don't worry. Everything is pretty much set and ready! Don't forget to bring us cool Irish stuff!!!!
You are very Irish indeed! And I'm sure you'd love it there (and it would love you back). If you get to go, you can look up my family (two of my cousins own a pub) !

My guardian angel!
And your adorable fluffy puppy (well, after her bath anyway) with the Irish name is one of my favorite subjects on instagram!!
One of my kitties was lying (moping, really) next to the packed suitcase this morning, and I tried to get a picture of him, but as soon as I pointed the camera at him, he moved. Cats are annoying like that--"oh, you want to take my picture? here, get a real close-up, like of my nose or my cheek"

Have a great trip - I am so jealous. I spent most of my time in N. Ireland, and only 1 day in Dublin, so I definitely want to go back and spent time time south of the border! ANd I will definitely look up your family!

Or my butt!!
I have one of my suitcases laying out already putting stuff in for the cruise, and I have to keep the lid closed to keep the cats from sleeing on my new clean clothes!

So I made my Fish Extender tonight. For never having made one and no real pattern, it didn't come out half bad, as long as you don't look real close. I will say I now understand the prices in Etsy for completed ones!
One more thing off the list!!!
