    Jersey Week in November

    LOL!!! I'm not trying to imply that. :) I've worked with many folks from Jersey and haven't met one I don't like. A few I couldn't understand but they probably said the same thing about me.. :) Y'all have a nice day, ya here.

    Jersey Week in November

    I've seen several posts referring to "Jersey Week" in November. I did a quick search and found this site: http://www.njea.org/NJEAConvention/ Is this what everyone is talking about? Are the schools out the entire week or just the days of the convention?

    Crowds and Weather in May vs. November

    How do the crowds and weather compare the first few weeks of May vs. the first few weeks of November? I'm thinking May might be a little warmer but that would make the pools feel a little better. My guess is November is a little cooler and less humid. What about rain? Probably more...

    Trading into DVC

    Thanks all and Howdy, TAMU91. I'm TAMU88. It looks like I'll be investigating the direct trade route or staying off site. The specifics on the unit are it is a floating week on a 2BR/2B unit with a garden view at Marriott's Waiohai Beach Club.

    Trading into DVC

    We rented points at VWL 1 1/2 years ago and loved it. We considered buying DVC at that time but didn't. This year's big trip was to Hawaii where we bought a Marriott time share on Poipu Beach on Kauai. Now we are looking at going back to Disney next year and are wondering about trading our...

    Do ride rehabs end early?

    I was really looking forward to Big Thunder Mountain on our upcoming trip to the MK. The rehab schedule has it opening up the day after we leave, Nov. 22. Any chance they might finish and it open up while we are there?

    What to expect as a WLV renter?

    As a DVC point rental rookie I've searched these boards and found lots of answers. I've found the posts on the room cleaning options and charges, what items to expect in the kitchen, and even the map to the WLV floors and rooms. I think my expectations are set for all those things. Now I...

    Cell phones in the Bahamas?

    Can you use US cell phones in the Bahamas? I have a relative in poor physical condition and I want to stay in touch while we are on our 4-day cruise. Anyone tried calling from Nassau, Freeport, or Castaway Cay? I'll try Verizon tomorrow but I thought I would run it by the people who have...

    Nov. 17-Pin Trading Cruise-Who's Going?

    Thought I would follow cindilou's lead and post something to get the thread bumped up again. I've had the cruise doc's for probably 3 weeks now so that part of the excitement has worn off some. My 3 year old DD had her tonsils out last Friday so we've been watching a lot of Disney movies...

    Convince me to stay at the Poly !

    I've been to Disney World about 6 times all for business. I've stayed at Cont, CBR, CS, and the Swan. Next month, I'll finally be taking the family including DS (6-yo) and DD (3-yo) and staying at the Poly for a vacation. The primary reason I chose the Poly is the location and the...

    Employees getting paid by DCL

    There are many reasons to register the ship in another country and the labor issues are just one of them. I seem to recall there is a law in the US that was passed in the early 1900's that is still in affect that makes it advantageous to register outside the US. I've seen many posts in this...

    Nov. 17-Pin Trading Cruise-Who's Going?

    Not going for the pin trading. Just going so the kids, DS 6 and DD 3, have something to occupy their time while DW and I relax. After 3 days at the MK and the Poly, we're going to need it. No worries, sail happy!! :cool:

    Freeport

    Thanks eskimo and all for the info. Since the regatta is canceled we'll probably take the family to the dolphins in Nassau. We have a 3-year old DD who isn't permitted on the swim so DW or I will have to do the Experience with her. Then we'll spend most of the day on the ship in Freeport...

    Freeport

    When I booked our 4-day cruise we were getting a day at sea. I liked that arrangement but it looks like we will be stopping at Freeport now. My DW will like the extra shopping opportunity. :) I was planning on doing the Blue Lagoon Dolphin Encounter at Nassau but there is a similar...
