Just wanted to share a nice story about Brent. My 11 year old DD loves to meet the ship's officers, particularly the cruise directors, when we cuise. We just sailed the western carribean on the August 22 cruise. My DD introduced herself to Brent and explained to him that she wanted his...

Did a double dip and it was great, but I would rather go somewhere else. Belize would be awesome. Any island that is not a usual port of call for Disney would be nice too. I think my second chilce would be an extra day at sea.

We used Budget for both of our cruises. I seem to remember the first time we just waited and they had a shuttle that continuously ran between the port and the rental oofice. The second time, for whatever reason we seemed to be the only ones waiting for the shuttle, and we called the number we...

[ Thats for the info everyone. I was thinking of booking Captain Marvins which prompted me to ask about tendering. On our first two cruises I always booked through DCL as to not have any worries. But this is the first cruise we will take where we have to tender ashore. From the sounds of...

I am considering booking an excursion on my own instead of through DCL. How does getting ashore by tender work? The ship gets in to port at 7:30. Generally speaking what time do people start going ashore. Is there a long wait because only so many can fit on the boat going ashore? How early...

I spoke with SOG ticket office yesterday and was told no orders are needed, just ID.

Bump :jumping1:

My DH kayaks and he has several wallet type things that are truly water tight. We purchased them at sporting good stores that specialize in kayaking/camping and the such. You could try LL Bean or the online store for Eastern Mountain Sports. Hope this helps!

I was always convinced that I would hate cruising. I swore I would never take a cruise. I always thought of the worst case scenarios. I was convinced I would be seasick the entire time. But my kids wanted to try DCL so I booked. As the cruise neared, I was dreading the trip. I think once I...

We did this excursion and we loved it. We did the encounter through disney, not the swim. With the excusion the boat to Blue Lagoon picks you up right at the port and goes straight to Blue Lagoon. We paid extra to get the photo book. It was expensive and we were the only ones in our group...

I will, thanks!!!

I think my kids would probably love the trampolines. And it is very inexpensive. This is a great option. I thought asking for advise would make it easier to decide, but I think it may make it harder!!:confused:

This sounds great. We did the Dolphin Encounter in Nassau on our last cruise and loved it, but this sounds even better!

We are a family of four with two kids, 11 an 15. We particularly love to snorkel. But I am interested in reviews of any excursion. There are so many to choose from, I can't decide. :confused3 I know there are probably other sites to get some info but I really trust the advice given on this...

When I called to book with my pin, I had to supply them with all my information (address, birthdate) which they had on file to confirm. Your sister could not use your info since she would need to provide identification at the time she checked in. It would be nice if people who got pins and...

I couldn't agree more. I was not impressed by the lobster, but I live in the northeast by the beach. Nothing compares to Maine lobster. I would definitely choose Palo's over the lobster!!!!

Dreams come true because this is what happened to me. I already had a cruise booked during the summer. I got the email, I figured I would call and see what happens. We were booked for cat. 8. There were no cat. 8 available, So I switched to a cat. 5 and it is costing me about $200 less...

Thanks everyone. Sounds like it will be just fine no matter what mother nature has up her sleeve. I am going to throw caution to the hurricane strength wind and book the cruise!

Hi everyone! We're thinking about taking a summer cruise (western). Just wondering if anyone sailed during hurricane season and was diverted away from a scheduled port, could you let me know: 1) which port were you scheduled to go to and where did you end up? 2) if you had an excursion...

We rented from Budget for two cruises. The first time there were many people waiting for the Budget Shuttle (it was a van not a minibus). When the first shuttle arrived it filled up and there was only room for my husband and none of our luggage, so I waited with the kids at the port and he...
