    Brief crowd/spring break update and map offer

    We decided to "sleep in' and arrive at the parks just before 9am. The lines were so long at each park entrance that they merged in the middle. At 3pm racers standby was 105 minutes. I hope the rain thins these crowds because it was crazy.

    Pooh Sized on SW Airlines

    YOU NO LONGER HAVE TO PURCHASE A SECOND SEAT. Their policy has changed. They request that you do, for seat counting purposes... But they will refund you EVERY time, full flight or not. If purchasing a second seat isn't possible... They will GIVE you a second seat, no charge, at the airport upon...

    "Inappropriate fondling" news story kill your buzz?

    I don't think I'll be sailing Disney again. What bothers me is that according to the report I read: (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/disney-cruise-line-failed-promptly-notify-cops-girl-11-groped-report-article-1.1351027) the child reported the incident immediately, security was...

    Target Brand sunscreen-does it work??

    It worked well..:but for me ohmygod it made my face feel as if it were on fire for 30 minutes after application. No pain on my body and no sunburn anywhere despite being very very pale and I burn under fluorescents lol.

    How strict with ages at kids club?

    I'd be a tiny bit concerned with a just 3 year old. My 3 (almost 4) year old boy went to club and didn't have the best time ever. Because of the mixed ages and there is NO close supervision it is a fairly rough and tumble environment. My son fell a number of times -- one time quite seriously...

    Pregnancy on DCL

    I just sailed the Magic on 4/26. I was 21 weeks pregnant at boarding. I brought a doctors note (scribbled on a prescription pad) noting the week of my pregnancy. I also visited the doctor the week prior to boarding for a final AOK. On boarding, I mentioned to the check in CM that I was...

    Any thoughts on battling after cruise dizziness???

    I do not get sea sick. I am prone to ear infections though .. so perhaps it's my ears that cause me to get "land sick" every time.

    Any thoughts on battling after cruise dizziness???

    I was 100x more miserable getting off my last cruise than I ever have been seasick. I really hope someone has something that will help because my upcoming 8 day might just ruin me for a solid week afterwards. Still totally worth it.. but still.

    Same day flight as cruise departure?

    Bahahahahaha!! I actually spit my drink out. Preach! How many years will you be in purgatory if you suggest a same day flight and something happens? It's one thing if *I* miss the ship...but if I in any possible way can be blamed for my MIL missing it? Oh god help me then...

    Lifevest/PuddleJumper/Arm Floaties?

    Puddle jumpers are great. BUT they max out at 50lbs. My 5 year old is too big so we will have to do a vest for him. He's still a very iffy and nervous swimmer.

    Can a 14 year old leave ship in port alone?

    I was probably one of those children who could've handled Nassau on my own at 14 no problem. MY CHILDREN?? Not a snowballest chance in Hades. Heck.. I'd be worried if DH went off the ship on his own. ::yes:: I've seen how that man reacts in a panic situation and I am not reassured...

    Whats the Difference between Cabanas and Topsiders?

    I get that it's easier for some folks. You'll see I clarified later that it's really the people who very obviously don't want to chance not having a table that cut the line to grab a seat that get me upset. However I grew up with a parent that has cerebral palsy and could not carry a tray...

    Whats the Difference between Cabanas and Topsiders?

    I guess there are some days (like embarkation) where you have lots of stuff. Maybe if you have an infant w/diaper bag, baby food, etc. But otherwise, how much stuff does one take with them to the buffet? It just drives me crazy when people do it SPECIFICALLY to secure a table during a...

    Whats the Difference between Cabanas and Topsiders?

    UGH. :furious: I hate this. hate hate hate this. And no, I do not want to hear how you *need* a place to sit and you are in pain and you can't chance not having a table.. blah blah. I have two children, I'm pregnant and have bad knees .. I can still wait in freaking line. The queues are...

    Do you tell kids you don't know to behave?

    OH MY WORD .. really? How often does that happen? I mean - is it regional perhaps. I know my grandma from Philly and grandpa from NY are more likely to give you their unsolicited opinion.. but sheesh. Read the responses on this thread. Adults are not telling other peoples children how to...

    Do you tell kids you don't know to behave?

    I think perhaps you have a different definition of "respect". I expect my children to respect *everyone.* Adults, children, you know, all fellow human beings. Now, respect doesn't mean bow down .. it means to treat others in a kind and graceful manner. You know, the golden rule - treat...

    Housekeeping issues upon arrival to our cabin..........

    I would hope they change the sheets between cruises. Yuck. I doubt they would do it during a cruise unless asked. I know it's uncommon at land based resorts and it hasn't happened on other lines I've been on. In fact, I kind of hope it isn't their policy to change *during* a week or less...
