10/22/11 Parley!! Will this get me on the ship any faster?

[GOS]

One Scorer is here. I have to say, there are 2 things that bring top ratings...

A Uniform and an Italian Accent!! WHOA BABY!!!

That's a 10 right there.

Sean's bringing his Class A uniform to wear on formal night to escort Lady Heather to dinner.

Yep...and I can't wait. I'll have my '10' score card at the ready Becky.

No, I don't think so - unless there is something my husband is not telling me. In fact, I am not sure who that is but Ilovepoohbear is MY DD, Gary is MY DH and Daniel is MY DS. And Rhiannon is no longer joining us.

Joh - just noticed your countdown bar - love the "Bad Mothers Return" in the label underneath. Is this a 'sequel' to the BMH and will we be getting a TR out of it?

Funny you should ask Wendy - we were just discussing this yesterday. Our friends, Tony and Theresa, who are also joining us on this trip are DISers too and I think Theresa is going to write the trip report (with a little help). The title they came up with was 'The Bad Mothers and Others'

[Dyerneeds]

...not sure I know what you mean Kathy!

Robin making the "last minute scorecards" for herself and Heather to use throughout the week.
I'll wager this cruise's cards will have J Depp, Kyle Chandler and probably Donnie Osmond on them.

hey Mikey what about red shirts? I just remembered I have one I can wear to dinner....is this kinda like the whole scar thing and guys cant resist the red clothing item?

red tops are good too...anything Cinnamon colored.
just make sure you're carrying a strawberry smoothie when wearing them.

Hi everyone. I thought I better check-in too.

I've been searching high & low for my red formal dress but unfortunately, in my size, too much red is not a good thing. I think I will have to stick with a basic little black or navy dress. I will be sure to pack a few red shirts.

Just curious, now that my 75 day window is coming up in a few weeks- what excursions are you all doing for the Eastern? What have you done in the past? If you don't go on an excursion, what activities/places are good to see on your own? My husband would love to snorkle, but I don't enjoy it that much so I want to find one is more than just snorkeling. But most importantly- which port has the best shopping?

See you all SOON

If you're OK with boats and your husband likes to snorkel, you might try the Doubloon Turtle Cove Sail & Snorkel. It's not too expensive and not too long - 3.5 hours which should leave you some time to go SHOPPING!!! St. Thomas has some of the BEST shopping in the Caribbean! Plus Charlotte Amalie is nice little town to walk around in and it's easy to get back to the dock.

This will be our third Eastern and we did only one excursion planned by Disney. On our first cruise we did the Island and Explorer cruise in St Martin and really liked it. It started with a bus tour of the Dutch side and then a boat trip to the French side complete with Rum Punch and other beverages. We were dropped off in the French shopping district for awhile and just all met back on the boat to take us back to the Dutch side. It was inexpensive but I'm sure there are more exciting excursions to take.

I also think St Thomas is best for shopping. On our other two cruises we did only the Taxi tour of the island and then came back to do some shopping.

I have yet to do St John, but I'm not a beachy person so it doesn't appeal much to me.

on our 2005 cruise Robin and i did the Golden Eagle Catamaran excursion (in St Martin) and it was great! snorkelling was fun and they went to a secluded beach for a little while.

oh...by the way...theres no such thing as too much red.

as i recall...Tuna said St Martin was the best for site seeing!! Cant believe he didnt get a picture of that topless chic to show Underdog.

well i'm certainly no expert...but i think it has something to do with the fact that deep down, all the ladies want to be just like Jessica Rabbit.
