WELCOME Dis2008 and gammasip!

Dis2008- You said you've been on 3 cruises. Were they all Dis Cruises? Eastern?

I've been reading about St. John and St. Martin in Fodor's. They really have high opinions of Baie Orentale for St. Martin and Trunk's Bay for St. John. And Trunk's Bay is supposed to be really good for beginning snorkelers (?

) I keep forgetting how much time we have docked at St. Thomas.

It seems a little formidable to get off the ship at St. Thomas and hope on a ferry for an hour or so to get to St. John. I'm determined to go though and just wondering how much beach 'stuff'' to lug there and back.

Ít's a good thing we have all these months to sweat the details!

Has anyone ever done the "surial" bath? How was it? And what was the cost?
I found the prices for the Rainforest spa. It's $15 per day or $75 for an unlimited pass.
Thanks...

gammasip · 07-28-2006, 01:27 PM

I did a search and found the price....."You can book an Exotic Rasul in the spa for couples it is priced at $83".

CRSNDSNY · 07-28-2006, 04:48 PM

DH and I did the Exotic Rasul (then Surial). Although I enjoyed it very much (I'm a lizard), DH could only handle about 30 minutes of it. He can't hack the steam and heat.

We are currently booked on the 2/17/07 one but need to move to April vacation 4/14/07. I hope my sister's school has the same week. We are from CT, some Red Sox fans, some Yankee fans. It will be me, DH, DD15, my sister, her DH, DD13 and DS5, and our parents.

Both Sis and I have been on several Disney cruises. I have been on the Eastern and we did the Mexican Riviera from LA in 2005 which was great. I think she has done West and East. I have also done Norwegian and Princess (Crown the cruise before she tipped over...)

gammasip · 08-04-2006, 07:10 AM

Welcome Catnip0113....we're glad you're joining us in April. You must be from somewhere in the center of CT seeing that you are half Yankees fans and half Red Sox fans. Where in CT are you from? We're from Cheshire.

CRSNDSNY · 08-04-2006, 09:21 AM

WELCOME Catnip! I hope your transfer of cruise dates goes smoothly!

All American · 08-06-2006, 06:19 PM

Hi!

Just adding myself and my husband to the list.

This is our first cruise. We decided to take the plunge and booked it last night. Needless to say, we are very excited about this adventure.

It's nice to know that we can come here and find people who are in the exact situation of counting the days and waiting for April to roll around.

Keep smiling!!!

Frankiesmom · 08-06-2006, 08:22 PM

We just booked this cruise yesterday also. Just returned from WDW yesterday! Had to plan my next disney fix! it will be myself and DH,kids ages 14,5,and 2. Can't wait! Angel

pershing · 08-07-2006, 06:02 AM

Welcome Catnip, All American, and Frankiesmom!

I'm supposed to be packing to move and instead I'm daydreaming about floating in the Caribbean!

Frankiesmom-- How did you like BDW? Did you spend some time exploring the boadwalk itself? We stayed at the Swan a couple years ago and still couldn't make the time to get over there. This time we'll be at BCV, and I def. plan on getting there sometime.

gammasip · 08-07-2006, 04:20 PM

CRSNDSNY...that has got to be the cutest picture I have ever seen!!!

Frankiesmom · 08-08-2006, 06:48 AM

Hi Pershing! This was our 1st trip as DVC members. The boardwalk was very nice;but to me this trip was missing something. We usually stay at the POLY-my favorite! Maybe it was not being able to see the castle at nite or the electrical water parade-just not as magical this time to me. I really did enjoy the trip-but it was just different. Can't wait for the cruise! Angel

OOOh! I know what you mean! We stayed at WLD last fall and loved the location (and the ducks outside our window each morning).

My kids want to have SAB but they want the ducks and WLD. I keep telling them they can't have both.
