Well done, I had just copied the first page in preparation!!

 

[granmaz]

Well I'm absolutely shattered and feel awful. I bet there are other out there who feel bad too.

Those coming back after the bad start to the booking process should find things easier to book, though some things have gone for now.

 

[WDWLVR]

Good morning everyone. Here is a LINK to your previous thread.

Happy planning!

 

[Making_Memories]

I still cant book the kids for dolphins. It says I am too old then says I can't book kids without adding an adult. Almost 4 am still have not slept I guess I will be up at 6 am so I can call them and complain to them.

There must be something wrong with the system there. Looks like phoning would be best.

 

[granmaz]

Wonder who managed to get the May 18th Palo high tea? Must have quietly grabbed them and headed off to bed!

 

[Making_Memories]

I swear there has got to be a better way. I know revamping a website costs a lot of money but I think Disney has the money to do it.

 

[granmaz]

Well for sure it all annoyed too many people.

 

[scottishwee35]

Hi Marilyn

I didnt get high tea in early times, as I got one for very late time at 3 to 4 pm not sure about it

I wait and see if any cancel later

Never mind I am fine now

Hope someone cancel the pirate ship in later.

I booked the cruise harbour and wait and see in near time and have talking to our kids if they want stay on ship in the morning then take them out after lunch.

I booked dolphin in PV so will talk to my husband about it. But I know kids want pirate ship. I feel sorry for them!

Have a nice day.

This is the message that I am gettting. .haven't been able to get in to book.. this really sucks...

 

[ibouncetoo]

Goodmorning cruise mates. Well, after a brief nap...I'm back!

It's funny I was seeing posts about brunch and hot stone massage being open...but they were NOT for me in the 2AM Mt time zone hour!

I did change my dinner date at Palo just now...to take us off Panama Canal night.

DDDD+D we have Palo dinner 5/13 8:30PM
four 4 people, #5 can be added on the ship.

Hasn't this experience been a pissa!

.

 

[bonnielynn]

Wonder if they are just overwhelmed with return cruisers or if they were ill prepared. I can't even get in.. and I am really upset... course you can't call anyone.. and I am thinking that as I sit her with an error screen, everyone else is swooping up the things I want to do..

 

[chip&dale&fun]

Good Morning All - I was woken up by an understanding hubby with a cup of coffee - he said "goodby" as I headed in here to do battle.

Got Paolo's and as a splurge added a spa treatment.....

Now trying to see about High Tea..

Keep trying.

 

[chip&dale&fun]

I guess I was getting greedy - No High Tea available

I guess, if there is no icon - there is nothing????

Ahhhh - I see it now - no reservations currently availalbe.

That's ok...it really was not on my list having done this once...

Back to bed for me now ---

Got everything but for the HIgh Tea but am I glad the scuba dives were not with Disney.

There has to be a better way.

 

[ibouncetoo]

OK...back to bed for me. This has been just too much fun.

 

[tink too]

Hi - I haven't posted on this thread for an absolute age - sorry!

Here was me all excited that I might finally get a stateroom number now that the 90 day mark has arrived, only to see that there are hardly any excursions left! Hope they've held some over for us first time cruisers. I'm all paid - have been for a long time - so I'll be on here at midnight at the 75 day point to try to book some things.

Hope the DCL website gets itself sorted out soon so that everyone can get what they want organised.

We have a great ice cream place nearby that makes it on site.

Favorite Flavors:

Coffee Chocolate Chip - Coffee Ice Cream with dark chocolate chips

Chocoholic Chunk - Dark Chocolate Ice Cream with Dark Chocolate chips

And in case you sense a theme here . . .

Cake Batter - Tastes just like licking the bowl from your mom's yellow cake mix!

I love Coldstone Creamery, being able to choose exactly what flavour ice-cream and what to mix in it. Although my favourite is one of their recipes: Banama Caramel Crunch. Yum.
I wish they'd come over to the UK.

And bring Jamba Juice too.

OK - Can't read but just have to post this little note:::::::


P.I.F.


It's my 10 year old b-day party tonight - we have a couple rooms at a local hotel that has an indoor pool. 8 boys, including my 4. We will spend the night. Tomorrow I have a 10:45 flight to MSP to attend my Grandmother's service. I am SOOOOOOOO VERRRRYYYYYYY HAPPPYYYYYY about this. It will make going to the funeral a little easier. I'm sure my Grandmother would think it is a great idea for us to spend 15 nights together. Life goes by like a blink.
Try to post later, but just had to share my news!!

calmom/Lisa

You're coming after all! Great news!!
