According to the Swan and Dolphin Hotel Weather Station the wind is gusting at 69mph, rain is falling at a rate of .96 inches per hours. It has rained 14.44 inches just today. Incredible to say the least!!! Thanks a lot for reports.

>>What are they like? Is there any better than others? I could say they are like WDW in the ocean. If you have kids, they will love it and you will love dropping your kids at deck 5 and having a time all for yourself (unless they beep you). Do run your numbers, IMHO about a 4 days cruise you...

Vero Beach in the summer can be very busy particulary around the Four of July Holiday. Late afternoon storms with lighting are frequent so guests are encouraged to leave both the beach and swimming pool areas for their safety. The no-see-uhm! bugs are really anoying during the evening or early...

Wholeheartly aggre, Doug. At least they should offer us a substantial discount when buying our passes. It would be interesting enough to find out how many of us commited a trip to WDW when the economy took a dive for the worst. You can easily cancel a hotel ressie with 72 hours to go without...

Okay, I admited. I got sick. Not so sure if it was because I road Test Track twice just before doing it (back to back, because it was really empty and I was riding single). Not so sure if I broke rule # 1 of don't close your eyes and always lock your sight on your own screen. But there is...

It is called Tropical Depression Twelve and here is the National Hurricane Center website http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ It looks like you are going to miss it by a day or so, but you will still might suffer from the typical afternoon showers. Definitely, go to the water parks as soon as they open...

Crowed. But, not as much as other similar occasions when the crow move you in the direction that you don’t want to go. Having spent NYE at WDW more than once (i.e. last one in ’99 when the economy was much better and people traveled a lot more). The early evening rain on 12/31 played a major...

RickW. Before we interchange any further comments that our much appreciated moderator would not agree with; I think that at some point, you have to draw the line regarding abusing smoking in the verandhas. I am not a smoker. Never had it. Never will. I would not be bother by the ocassional...

We are quite all right and ready to go back again. No sickness here, our room was in deck 7 midship just around the elevators.

Brenner965. If the room was designated non-smoking then you should have reported this ilegal activity. The verandha is considered part of the room in that beautifull ship and not the patio of your condo. Period. We witnessed a similar complaint from another passanger (from a very upset...

I salute him. Just wish to agree with his attitude toward work but I draw the line after living the premises every day. To be in contact with mundane stuff there is always CNN in the room's TV and it is free of charge. To do the private stuff, I am afraid you have to pay the 6.95 fee for all...

SuperDisneyDad. I salute you. On my first cruise I had to deal with a fuzzy toddler to be, and had to carry a cooler packed with soy milk, my baby was lactose intolerant. Then somebody told my wife that for our second cruise we should call DCL for the special dietary needs department and...

Just returned from the 1/26 cruise. Our second cruise. Our wish list: more Castaway Cay. We were let go off the ship around 9:30am and had to be back on board at 4:30pm. Not enough time for us, despite the fact that we live just 20 minutes from the beach. Disney is in absolute control of...

mouseclick1. Just a word of warning: After you book you need to call Castaway Club and confirm you will get those perks while cruising again. The following happened to me: I booked following the rules (the fine print) and I assumed that Castaway Club would know of my booking, wrong. I...

According to the Ages 3-4 Navigator for the 7Days, the Participation Confirmation ends at 7pm during the first evening. So, yes it is open to drop in at the time, but you might want to have your Palo reservation for 8pm just in case your luggage is delayed, remember Palo is a formal restaurant...

Mjasp. Relax. I am sure the stabilizer were deployed; otherwise, it would have been much worse. Not everyone got sick either. I think the more you think about it, the more you feel the rocking. Personally, I have no explanation. We took no medicine whatsoever, we ate like pigs while on board...

Just a word of warning to everyone who has to be wired while cruising. The Internet Cafe has some restrictions regarding the acceptance of cookies which is sometimes required to be handled for some secure web based POP mail viewers, so you either have to loggin in the clear to see your email or...

So sorry to read all the postings about getting sick while on the cruise. We enjoyed so much despite the significant rocking of the ship; let's be honest, it was really hard to walk a straight line. My toddler (4 years old next month) enjoyed so much that even as I write this, she is still...

Sure!. I suppose you are going to take a courtesy van from the rental car counter at the airport and be driven to the rental car depot that is located along Lejune Road. You will need to take Lejune road and go south toward 836 xway (about 3 miles south). This is a toll road so be ready to...

Debs Hill What about Mother's Day. That's in May, so I agree with Eva. We did almost the same a couple of years ago, a few days at WDW and few others at VB to spend Mothers Days weekend at the beach. The crows at WDW were light (well before the rush of Memorial Day) and VB was already...
