Unless things have changed since KK1 Jen, I was able to book all 4 kids on their excursions along with mine. They were first-timers and I was not.

Hmmm....that's odd. It says right on the website that you can book activities for all of your party, but when I tried to book the excursions it said their booking window wasn't open.

Can I call DCL and book stuff? Or can we only do it online?

Confused FO...

Good morning everyone...

It was a little harder waking up today after being up for the ressie window last night. I even had a hard time going to bed as I was still a little excited about scoring the Palo brunch reservation on Monday at 11:00 AM. I imagine I will see many of you that got 10:30 reservations. I had both Andy (VerandahMan and Walt) telling me how great Palo is on my FaceBook as well. Do they have any real food for Brunch? When I say real food, I mean non pastry, non breakfast food.

Ditto for the St. John/Trunk Bay Beach and Snorkel. We will take over the ferry and bus with having such a large group.

It's a rainy day today. I am glad we went to the beach yesterday.

Well, its time now to head out the door for church. I'll check in from my office a little later.

Got into my reservation finally....brunches are all gone. Nothing saved.

I was trying to book brunch for the in-laws also.

Feeling bummed 'cuz there were times open before my PC upchucked.

I guess you and I will be on at the 75 day mark to snag some ressies!

Laura got a message? Good for her. I thought about it, but decided I'd get one before I leave.

Yep, she had one last cruise and has been wanting me to sched her for another ever since. She is a happy camper.

You could if they were in the same cabin as you, but I don't think that it works that way if they are in a separate cabin.

Yeah, the Palo Brunch has all kinds of non-breakfast food. There was even some pizza. (gourmet style) You'll enjoy the crud of of it.

Yep!

Of course, I will probably be checking back in the meantime in case of cancellations

That's funny, I've been doing the same.

 

[disgrits]

Mornin' all....

Thanks for all the sympathy and well wishes last night. I'm feeling a bit better this morning.

Quick question - for some reason I thought I would be able to book shore excursions for my in-laws who are new cruisers....was that an incorrect assumption?

Cass wasn't able to reserve for Bernie, either, Jen. Their policy may have changed.

That's interesting...

I am calling DCL right now to see if I can get reservations. I know brunch is gone, but I'd feel better if I could get my in-laws' excursions booked.

Only a 10 minute wait

 

[millerpjm]

Good luck to both of us...

Hi peeps!

Tried this morning but had problems getting the Dis to load so I gave up.

Jeff got us Trunk Bay

Jen - sorry you had problems- hope you get sorted soon

 

[oybolshoi]

Just wanted to pop in and see how everyone did with their 90-day excursion / reservation window last night / today.

I hope it went smoothly and that you all managed to nab what you wanted!

Yay for you all! We are not doing Trunk Bay because of Harrison's age. Not sure what we will do that day. We have done that excursion before and LOVED it. So I know all of you all will have a blast.

 

[Karen Mouse]

OOOOOOOH! - ISNT IT EXCITING!

Everything seems more real now trips etc are booked!

Can I start packing now?

 

[Timon]

I guess I better go to bed now too. We were planning on going to Busch Gardens tomorrow but not sure if that will happen now that Alex isn't feeling well.
I hope everyone can go to sleep knowing that we are only 90 days away from a fab vacation!!!!

I hope Alex feels better today!

Like Steve and Paige mentioned, you can only book for your own stateroom now, you cannot book for someone in another room.

In case some of you don't know yet, the Magic has new menus now so I thought I would post a link for you in case you haven't seen them yet

I was able to book for Dan & Nancy with us, but we are all CC club members and were paid in full.

See below.

Yup, us too Joanne. I got a brunch for all four of us but maybe the trick is that you all have to be CC club members.

Thanks dear. I'm going to save the link and show the kids. We want to try Topsiders one night for dinner and can now narrow it down to the night where the menu isn't as appealing to us.
