Oooohhh, a chocolate tasting would be heavenly!! What are the chances of convincing DCL to do that? As I posted before, we are Tim (54 when we cruise) and Gail (43). We have six children, but the two oldest are grown and on their own. Our oldest daughter has also thoughtfully provided us...

DH asked if the rum tasting involves tasting straight rum or if there is something to mix with it. He loves his rum & Coke, but is not sure about straight rum. Thanks! Gail

Hi! You are a chatty group! 25 pages already!?! We are Tim (54 at time of travel) and Gail (43). We have dreamed of doing a TA for years and are finally able to go since the kids will be old enough to manage with the help of Grandma & Grandpa. We are so excited! This will be a 20th...

Julie, When are you cruising? We are going to be on the WB Repo in a couple of weeks with all our children including our 4 year daughter from China who just came home Feb 1, 2008. She does not have speech or hearing issues and she is picking up English like crazy, but is not "four year...

Thanks! Our daughters are from Jiangxi and Guizhou provinces. How wonderful that you were able to go with your sister. On both our trips to China, my husband's sister traveled with us as we took our other children along both times. She was great for practical help and moral support! So...

Happy New Year!! We just got home from a CNY party. Our family also gets to participate in the fun by association. My nine-almost 10-year old DD is not Asian, but our two youngest were adopted from China. We have been home with our 4 year old just 1 week today! (That is why I am just now...

Thanks! This is what I was hoping to hear, although I admit we have never had a problem finding some way to spend that OBC :rolleyes: . Gail

Is it true that you can use OBC for tips? I was sure that I read somewhere you could use if for everything except tips, but I have been going blind on paperwork lately, so I certainly may be wrong. We have two staterooms next trip and, thus, more OBC that we've had in the past. Just curious...

Today, we got to make a special trip to buy "big girl" underpants for our 21 month old! We have been working on potty training this week and she has done very well. :cool1: She was so excited to pick out her new panties. (Disney princesses, of course, we're raising her right!) She didn't...

Krisann, We are also homeschoolers who will be on this cruise. My DS will be 12 and DD will be 9 (little DD will be 3, but I don't think she'll be doing much book learning by then!) Maybe we can exchange any good resources we find? Can't wait to meet you! Gail

This is a little late, but I just wanted to say :cheer2: THANKS!! :cheer2: to PJ, Laura, and everyone else involved with the website. It looks fantastic!

What a cute idea! My children will love these. Thanks!!

Nov 06? That seems perfectly reasonable to me. I still have a dresser drawer filled with "DCL cruise necessities"...our most recent cruise was Nov 04!!

Sign us up! :cheer2:

Or maybe, OMH! (Oh my heck!) I had never heard that particular phrase before we moved here!

My children and I read about this earlier this year. I had not heard of it before that either. The interesting thing to us was that doing this often did not save them time over going all the way around Cape Horn because the jungle and swamp in Panama was so difficult to get through. Thanks...

Totally agree with you about having a closed website. :thumbsup2 No point in inviting trouble at home while we are gone. That would sure put a damper on your excitement! Thanks! Gail

WHEWW! I am finally caught up! DH is busy getting ready for the Super Bowl. Colts T-shirt? Check! Snacks? Check! Beer? Check! Sole possession of the remote? Check! Teach the 1 yr old to run around saying, "GO COLTS!" Check! We are transplanted Hoosiers and today is THE DAY...

Pj--It's probably right in front of me, but I can't find the link! Where is it?:confused3 Thanks, Gail

We will definitely have to keep in touch as this gets closer. I'm glad that there are going to be boys my son's age around. There seemed to be a lot of girls on the roll call and I was wondering where all the guys were! We have not been on DCL since Nov 2004, so I had to look up what...
