    Magic Bands at DLR...what am I missing?

    It looks like there are two reasons to purchase these next-gen/DLR MBs: 1. For an efficient, entertaining upgrade to your park experience, and/or 2. As a souvenir of sorts. We have stayed at several WDW resorts in the past decade, and have a fair collection of MBs. Only the very first ones...

    Can someone explain the military tickets to me please?

    After reviewing the Disney pass details from a link in this thread, I don't think the Military Salute tickets are available at the park windows: "•Disney Military Promotional Tickets may be purchased at participating U.S. military sales outlets ONLY by Eligible Service Members (defined...

    What's the real deal on sea sickness?

    Try Sea-Bands. www.sea-bands.com, but you can also get them online at walgreen's, drugstore.com, and many other places. Around 5 bucks for kids, 10 for adults. They are an accupressure wristband, and many people swear by them. My wife (who used to teach dinghy sailing in Hawaii) is one of...

    OK, so nobody ever responds to their own posts, right? :rolleyes1 After almost an hour with DCL on the phone popcorn::, we finally managed to find out that there is only one time slot for the Jet Boat Teen-Only adventure in St Thomas, and that's at 1:30pm (so we can drag them to Coral World...

    Hi Guys, Is anybody 'sending' their teens off to this adventure? We'd like ours (DD 15.9, going on 30;), and DS 14) to be able to go, but we're also doing Coral World in the morning with my folks and sister's family. Does anyone know if there is an afternoon version for this? The DCL site...

    Pre Resort Stay..am I the only one?

    We're staying at Beach Club (back gate of EPCOT) for two nights prior to our Fantasy cruise on Jun 16th. Never done it before, because my folks live close by, and we usually stay with them. But my sister's family is coming down (all 3 families cruising for my folks' 50th Anniversary), and we...

    House of Blues in Downtown Disney deal!

    On the bottom of our cert, it says "Expires one year from date of issue, except in California..." I had read in other threads that this was the case. So no problems at DTD!

    Great Ship But the food????.....

    So, we've just returned from our 6th DCL cruise (2 on Wonder; 4 on Magic). The food was incredible FOR US. The responsiveness of the crew to any meal requests was incredible FOR US. Can someone else be very devistatingly disappointed with the food and food service quality? Evidently. As I...

    June 22 2008 Magical Mexican Riviera Cruise

    Who is "it" that is predicting the dire weather? I just checked wunderground.com (a great site for worldwide hourly forecasts), and "it" shows clear skies and 89 degrees at Cabo on Tuesday, scattered clouds (87 degrees) and a 20% chance of rain in Mazatlan on Wednesday. Didn't bother with the...

    June 22 2008 Magical Mexican Riviera Cruise

    Hey Guys, I got a UPS envelope from DCL today...in it was our baggage tags and other stuff. We were booked on a (last-minute) Cat 12 guarantee, but the bag tags show us on a Deck One, outside stateroom, which is a Cat 9. Small portholes, but now we'll have a view...and right near the...

    Well gang, we'll all be out at sea one week from today! Does anybody know of a nice hotel an hour or two north of the Long Beach port? We're coming from the Sacramento area, and will take the "scenic" drive down the 5, sometime Saturday afternoon. Would like to find a place like the Embassy...

    June 22 2008 Magical Mexican Riviera Cruise

    Well, since we've done this a few times before, I requested that, upon return to to our house post-cruise last time, we all open our suitcases and get pictures taken of what we didn't wear/use. Guess what? About half OR MORE of what we packed never even made it out of our bags! So here's what...

    Great Ship But the food????.....

    This thread is very interesting, just from the sheer number of posts/replies it's generated. There are as many posts on this 'food quality' thread as there are on the "Establishing Rules for your Tween-agers Independence while On-Board" thread. I guess that just means folks are as passionate...

    Mexican Riviera Magic Cruise Video!

    Very nice work, Brett! It was informative and entertaining. You must have a background in film to be able to pull that off so quickly with such good quality!

    June 22 2008 Magical Mexican Riviera Cruise

    Sorry to hear you're postponing your cruise, BethA. Maybe somebody will be able to pick up a Cat 1 at a "bargain" price. Won't be us...we're still down in steerage!:earboy2: Buzz
