    Help!!!!! Atlantis Resort Excursions

    We have gone to Atlantis a few times. We didn't do any of the set excursions. Just took a cab over to wander around. My sister and some of the kids walked through the aquarium. Guess it wasn't all that grand, but it's hard to compete with Baltimore & Monterey. A few of us just hung around &...

    February Weather

    Me & my girls have sailed in February two times. This past February was COLD in Florida, but once we hit the Caribbean waters, it was great. The only rough waters we had were the first night. It seemed the water at Castaway Cay was fine. I like my water warmer, but it didn't seem to keep the...

    Disney Transfers

    We are also flying down on a Friday night. My sister called (I forgot who) and they said the first bus was at 10:30 am. You shouldn't have a hard time finding the ticket counter. It is down near the baggage claim area. You will also see the "welcome folks" inside the terminal area with...

    Need Help to Decide-Swim with the Dolphins

    At the Dolphin Encounters in Nassau you can do a Swim or an Encounter. You can go to their website at www.dolphinencounters.com to read the difference between the two. You can book the Encounter through Disney or directly with the Dolphin folks. The Swim has to be booked directly with the...

    Need Help to Decide-Swim with the Dolphins

    We will be swimming with the dolphins for the 2nd time when we cruise in Dec. We have asked what would happen if the ship had to change its itinerary. We were told that we would not be charged if we can not make it due to circumstances beyond our control (i.e. ship not docking). I am going to...

    Flat Stanley Project

    Too bad Flat Stanley has to be back by Oct. I love Flat Stanley. My DD had that project 2 years ago. We sent Stanley to a friend in Arizona. She did a great job with him, pictures, items native to Arizona, etc... We don't cruise until Dec. I hope you get Stanley on a cruise. It will be great.

    Kidney Disease & Cruising

    Thank you both. I'll be making some calls. I'm also looking in to a stretch limo service. I want to make this a REALLY special trip. I think everyone (all 13 of us) would get a real kick out of having a limo (or 2) waiting for us. I'm going to keep that one as a surprise from me. :Pinkbounc

    Kidney Disease & Cruising

    About 6 months ago, my wonderful niece (27) was diagnosed with Kidney Disease. We are very close & my way of handling bad things is to ignore them & think they will go away. Well, about 2 months ago she went back to the Dr. because she was feeling bad. They said it is progressing faster than...

    Need excursion help, Please! ~ Dolphin Swim or Encounter? (Nassau)

    The wet suit was included. We went in December, so I guess it was a good thing we did have the wet suits on. The swim really is great. We even got to feed our dophin. They give each person a fish & the dolphin will swim up to you to be fed. I wasn't real keen on holding a dead fish, but it...

    Need excursion help, Please! ~ Dolphin Swim or Encounter? (Nassau)

    Go to www.dolphinencounters.com. We did the dolphin swim and absolutely loved it. At the time my little one was 6. It took her a few minutes to warm up to the dolphins, but once she got used to their size she loved them. You should have enough time to spend at Atlantis. It depends on what...

    Celebrating Birthdays?

    I have booked the last 2 cruises in February, which is my youngest daughters birth month. The first one was about a week before her birthday, the second two weeks after. Both times I had my AAA rep let Disney know that I would like to celebrate her birthday on the ship. The head waiter asked...

    Are the banana boats fun?

    My two girls 12 & 8 loved it better than I. My arms were really strained trying to hold on. My 8 yr old fell inside the boat & it was VERY difficult trying to get her back up. When the men in the boat saw that she couldn't get back in her seat they slowed down until she was seated properly...

    getting cash onboard

    I recently went on my second Disney cruise. I tried to cash a check (they do have $100 daily miniumum). For some strange reason it got rejected. The service desk said that they would call the bank for me, so I went and got the phone number. They were kind enough to call the bank, but they...

    2/16/03 Wonder

    The current (kids) movies that were playing were Spy Kids II and Jungle Book 2. We were able to catch Spy Kids, but things just kept getting in the way of Jungle Book. I didn't really catch what "Adult" films were playing.

    2/16/03 Wonder

    What started out as a lousy start, turned in to a GREAT trip. We barely left Richmond, VA before all heck broke loose along the East Coast. A number of flights had been cancelled, but ours was scheduled to leave on time. Well, we boarded right on time. For the next 2 hours, we sat in the...

    Gift Baskets???

    Ok, so I am a major procrastinator, but can some one please give me the name of the company that will deliver gift baskets on the ship? We leave on Feb 16th and I forgot to order something for my daughters birthday (the 17th). Thank you very much. :smooth: :bounce: :Pinkbounc

    The good, the bad, the Disney - Part I.

    Well, it started out pretty good. I laughed at the death threats. That works for my girls too. My saying is "I'm going to shorten your life span". Looking forward to reading your next installment. :)

    Wonder/WDW/Discovery Cove (very Long!!!)

    Thanks for the posting. I am doing a 7 day land/sea vacation in December with my Mom, DD1 (10) & DD2(5). I love reading about others vacations. I'm learning a lot. I didn't think I would do Palo's, but now I'm thinking my Mom might like to be pampered in an adult's only setting. Thanks for...
