    Interesting article about onboard art auctions

    I really dislike these art auctions. They do seem to have a sleezy/con-artist vibe about them. I didn't see one actual bid in the two sessions I watched on our last cruise. I miss the silent auctions they used to have. Those were fun to watch throughout the cruise and they had some pretty...

    Pix from the 10/13 Eastern

    Wow! What a coincidence. Thanks so much for taking our picture we don't get a lot with both of us in them. I always hate asking people but it's the only way we can get them. I hope the one of your family came out OK. I get asked to take pictures for people occasionally (people think the gear...

    Pix from the 10/13 Eastern

    Thanks for everyone's feedback on the pictures. I'm flattered that some of you mentioned you'll be using them for your desktop wallpaper. :) I'll try to answer a couple of the questions I saw: Q: "How'd you get so few people in your pics?" or "You must have shot pretty early" A: Actually, I'm...

    Disney Magic Eastern, 10/13 - 10/20 2007

    Let's see. It kinda worked out like this: Night 1: Casual food from Goofy's. We had a fair amount at the welcome aboard buffet so weren't that hungry. We were going to do Topsiders casual dinner but realized it isn't open the first or last night. Night 2: Topsider's casual dinner. Night...

    Pix from the 10/13 Eastern

    Hey all. I've posted some pictures on flickr from our most recent cruise. I've created a different "Set" for each day in the collection here: Full Set If you don't want all the detail I've also created a "Best Of" set here: Best Of Hope you enjoy them. I sure enjoyed taking them.

    Anyone else think they've overdone the "Pirates" stuff?

    I like pirates as much as the next guy. They're really fine folk. And I love the ride and the movies and Keira Knightly can hang out with me any day but after our last cruise (Magic, 10/13) I was sick of anything with an eye patch. It just seemed impossible to escape. Pirate night, pirate menu...

    Disney Magic Eastern, 10/13 - 10/20 2007

    Oh, I hope I didn't give the wrong impression. We had nothing against our tablemates we just never met them. Didn't dine like we were "supposed to" once on this trip. For the record: 5:30 APL Table 32 diners on the 10/13 Magic are da bomb!:thumbsup2

    Stateroom outlets

    That's not quite true. The outlet is a standard outlet but just doesn't have the "oomph" to power something like a hairdryer. I used it on my last cruise for a small digital camera battery charger. I completely agree with your suggestion to bring extension cords. Something I've, regrettably...

    Eliminate Repeaters' Benefits?

    Heh, actually we just did that on our last cruise. The CC line was easily twice as long as the regular line (and took twice as long to move). I hopped into the regular line and was done much earlier. To answer the OP's question....I think *perks* for repeat cruisers is great but disagree...

    Disney Magic Eastern, 10/13 - 10/20 2007

    Great trip report! We were on the same sailing and also thought it was a great trip. We also had the 5:30 APL seating. If you were at table 32 we were the couple that never showed up. ;)

    It's true- I am addicted to cruising

    After 5 I'm still in love with them (though I can't wait for the new ships/cruises). And to think I used to scoff the DCL when it first launched. I haven't yet drummed up the courage to try another cruise line though.
