    Stranded at Turtle Farm on a Sunday??

    Ugh, I feel like I'm screwed. I have a 1 year old so there are no DCL sponsored excursions available to us because of that. Or am I misunderstanding the website and I just need to book the excursion for the 4 year old and the adults? I thought DCL wouldn't let a 1 year old come along for the...

    Stranded at Turtle Farm on a Sunday??

    I'll be at Turtle Farm (Grand Cayman) on a Sunday, not as part of an excursion. Someone warned me that there weren't any taxis to return on Sundays and they would've missed the ship if it hadn't been that an excursion bus allowed them to board. Please tell me this was a freak accident. I'll...

    Disney Vacation Account and adding credit to my onboard account.

    Yes. You should be given a direct number to Disney to make all the paymentalk with a CM. A Florida rate came out for one of our rooms that was a refund bigger than what we'LL need on the onboard account and getting a refund to DVA was no problem. Their refund policy once it's in the DVA if yof...

    Stephanie from Small World told me no in September so I went with Costco.

    Onboard Booking Question

    I need to make the OBB as late as possible. Would the CM that processes the written quotes for future bookings be able to put it through as the day that we debark?

    Just off the Wonder Yesterday

    I'm a month away from a cruise on the Wonder so I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on what should be avoided!

    Using Disney Gift Cards and Disney Vacation Account

    Since I had to pay a deposit on a 2016 cruise before taking my 2015 one, I set up a new savings goal without thinking. It created a new account number. It makes me think that the limit we see like $500 are per account and each person can easily open additional accounts. When I login I now see...

    Didnt like last cruise, would we like Disney?

    I thought cruising was a lame way to spend vacations prekids. I also have a 1 and 3 year old (but no 6 year old.) What other vacation gives you a break from your kids?? My 3 year old is in love with the Kids Club and I had to drag him out at midnight when it closed our last night onboard!

    Seasickness patch - what would you do?

    I think you sound like a typical person too. My motion sickness is definitely worse than yours. On my first cruise I didn't want to take prescription meds like the patch or pills because the side effects even if it's just dry mouth feel terrible (so I reserve then for boat rides.) I thought I'd...

    FE question

    I didn't realize there are sprinkles by the ice cream now. I didn't notice any on the Magic earlier this year. I know that anything could be poisoned but what are the chances that someone took a cruise and joined the FE to give you poisoned sprinkles?? I thought *I* was paranoid! :-) Why not...

    FE question

    That's not bad at all! The only thing you would've touched is then the sprinkles. There would be no fear of unknown ingredients or you cooking something wrong/poorly. I really hate the thought of germs things but I would let my son have them if he wanted because you can sprinkle sprinkles in the...

    FE question

    We don't have any allergies or sensiticities but my paranoia and germaphobia mean we wouldn't try them. I think it's a lovely thought and I love making and receiving homemade FE gifts but food items should be saved for friends and neighbors rather than an anonymous exchange IMO.

    Using Disney Gift Cards and Disney Vacation Account

    You're right! I meant using Disney gift cards cards purchased at Target. I shouldn't have said Target GCs. Good use of context clues though sinice I mentioned that I just PIF with them for my January cruise. :-D

    Grand Cayman- tailoring excursion so young kids can do Stingray City, and more

    The sandbar seems like it's do-able for a 4 year old as long as the surf isn't rough that day and it's a preschooler that enjoys animals. The snorkeling though seems tricker. Even just floating on the water with their life vest seems tough because even 1-2 foot waves would mean my kid would get...

    Grand Cayman- tailoring excursion so young kids can do Stingray City, and more

    Thank you! I was just thinking the same thing this morning! To limit things further, not only is all aboard at 3:30 but we're also there on a Sunday which seems to limit charters further. I couldn't find anything that wasn't a combo with snorkeling. (Snorkeling is out of the question because the...

    Using Disney Gift Cards and Disney Vacation Account

    I wonder if you can buy a gift card with a high dollar amount at a Disney Store or elsewhere with all the Target gift cards. It would be so much easier to make a pit stop to get 6 $500 cards rather than 30 $50 cards. Our cruise is in January and I paid with the vacation account. I paid the...

    calling in disney gift cards

    Yes, they'll load your onboard account from your vacation account. They can also send a refund back to your vacation account and then you can have it go back to a gift card or credit card.

    Incentive for booking a cruise

    Do you get both the OBC and the 10% off on both rooms? I asked a month or two ago and I was told that you could only book one room per household to receive both benefits.

    Nap Time?

    I'm in the same boat but I don't want to sit somewhere random for a couple hours and I think that it would be difficult for him to fall asleep in an odd spot. I know my best bet is to wear him in a carrier on my front. He will fall asleep when he's tired especially if he nurses a little bit. The...
