    I think ckb_nc means MVMCP, not MMVCP. Click here for more information about Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party.

    Laurie, Welcome! You could start by reading the 750+ posts in this thread, but, by the time you finish them all, you might miss embarkation. Seriously, you should still be able to get reservations for Palo. I understand that not all Palo reservations are available online. They hold...

    dinner on western?

    The following summary is for the usual Western Caribbean itinerary. It does not apply to cruises that will be diverted to Nassau or the special Western itineraries later in the year. For the Nassau cruises, it's likely that Wednesday and Thursday will essentially be swapped, with Nassau...

    It's my guess that the Chacchoben Ruins tour is likely to be boring to many children under 10. There's a van ride of almost an hour each way between Majahual village and the Chacchoben ruins. From what I've read, Ivan or David will provide fascinating insight on Mayan culture and history...

    I'm sure the Chacchoben excursion through DCL will be great too. Many years ago, we went on an excursion to Chichen Itza from Playa del Carmen through Celebrity Cruises. Our guide was absolutely excellent, and the motor coach transportation was very comfortable. It seems the Mexican...

    Kathy, In the past, I've used cruise line excursions rather than private excursions for the convenience and the "no worries" factor, despite the higher price. For example, I used one of the DCL excursions to Stingray City at Grand Cayman last year. However, I'm expecting a far better...

    It's good to hear that you weren't shooed out of the Promenade Lounge at 3:30 PM. 45 minutes would be much better than 30 minutes. I agree that it's likely that people will be at a scheduled event or otherwise occupied (such as relaxing by a pool) on Monday afternoon. In fact, I might be at...

    The Promenade Lounge is a good place for a DIS Meet. It's quiet and not crowded, and there's a bar for those who want to unwind after travel, standing in lines, and lugging carry-ons around. I like the idea of a DIS Meet on embarkation day. Not everyone will be able to make it because...

    The Disney Magic (83,000 GRT) won't be the only ship at Puerto Costa Maya on December 2. The huge Carnival Glory (110,000 GRT) and immense Royal Caribbean Explorer Of The Seas (138,000 GRT) are scheduled to be there too. There will be a lot of people at Costa Maya that day!

    Donna, Welcome to the DIS Boards and to this thread! I think we now have 9 people from our 12/17 cruise on the Chacchoben Tour with Ivan or David. Enjoy Captain Marvin's Stingray City Tour in Grand Cayman. We did one of the DCL excursions to Stingray City in 2004. It was a lot of...

    Yes, Happy Thanksgiving to all! No docs yet for us. We're flying to Orlando three weeks from tomorrow, to be there a day before sailing. Is anyone else on the 12/17 Disney Magic going on the Chacchoben Tour by Ivan and David besides the mcorbo family of three and my family of four?

    The port where the Disney Magic will arrive on December 21 is Puerto Costa Maya: http://www.puertocostamaya.com The port area includes shopping, entertainment, dining & drinking, a pool, and places to relax. From the picture it looks very nice, but rather artificial. (Of course, we Disney...
