Sheri - I'm STRUGGLING with coming up with a FE gift idea. I really want to do one that is homemade, but I don't know what to do!! I'm only creative when I can copy someone else's idea

Abby (my 11 year old DD) keeps giving me ideas, however they are pretty elaborate!!

GOod luck finding a great idea!

When we did discuss this...ages ago we talked about Christmas decorations. Why not just bring somthing from your home town?

 

[GOS]

Cool! I'm not too bummed about not getting brunch - DH really wanted to do it. His #1 thing was to get Parasailing at CC early in the morning. We got a 9:30 ressie and then we will have the rest of the day to relax!

Booked Trunk Bay in St. Johns
Butterfly Farm Tour in St. Maarten

WOo hoo!!

I also booked Palo for SUnday night dinner, so I'm fine with not eating brunch there....

Night night all!

Excellent news Angie

Hi everyone!

I just thought I'd pop in and say hi to everyone, I was a newbie to this thread a couple of months ago but I just could not keep up with all the posts. But I was thinking about you guys last night and just wanted to see how everyone was doing.

Hope you guys are enjoying a nice summer. I can not believe how close we are now...we are getting quite excited! We booked a couple of things online and got to register our little Miss M., but we still haven't decided on other excursions yet. We'll see.

Well - hope you're all doing well and we look forward to meeting you guys real soon! I will try to keep up with the posts!

back Queenie.

Got your reservations done?

 

[GOS]

Happy belated Birthday Di!

Ooh...from us too!

 

[GOS]

Hi all, it's only 9:40 pm here

Anyway we got Palo when we wanted and the excurion at St. Thomas (Doubloon) My husband really wants a second shot at Palo, like for lunch.

Fab news.

Looks like everyone must have went to bed.

Guess I'll check back about when Heather will be on.

Morning Jeff

Monday morning FO

I was searching for a thread for this cruise and finally found it. My name is Chris. My wife Stacy, my daughter Rebecca, and my father in law Seymour will all be on this cruise together. We have never been on a Disney cruise or any cruise for that matter. Any and all suggestions are very much welcomed and appreciated. We all can't wait for October to get here. I just made reservations today for some excursions and Palo. I was surprised to see that Palo brunch was completely sold out when I logged on this evening. Is this normal? I don't want to slow the thread down with alot of questions but I'm sure I'll have more right up to the time we leave.

Chris and Family. Ask as many questions as you like. Hopefully someone will know the answer. Loads of info on page 1.

Yes, it's normal with Palo brunch. Rockin Bar D when you embark on the 24th is the place to head for 1st. They keep places back.

My name is Heather and my DH is Rick. We'll be joining you from the UK and can't wait.

What are your plans pre and post cruise?

Morning Jeff

Morning Heather. Looks like I missed you. I'm heading to bed for a couple hours now, so maybe later on instead.

Nice to meet you Mr. Pink. If you have any questions feel free to jump in and ask them. Many of us have been on DCL before and can offer good advice. Big time bummer about the Palos Brunches though. I thought for sure they'd release a few more ressies at the 75 day mark.

Morning Heather. Looks like I missed you. I'm heading to bed for a couple hours now, so maybe later on instead.

Hey Jeff and Heather, I just woke up for some inexplicable reason and I see that I just missed the both of you. Hopefully I'll be able to get back to sleep.

Morning all

We had a great day in the Dells yesterday. Steve, I told Tony what you said yesterday and if there is any way you can get that Wisconsin Dells footage onto your computer and over to us we'd love to see it!

Welcome to Chris and Stacy and welcome back to Queenie.

Sorry to hear the 1st timers couldn't get their Palo ressies. It looks like it's pretty rare to be able to get any for the 75 day mark. We couldn't book ours on our first cruise either and had to go to RBD to get them too. I remember feeling a bit upset too thinking that ESPECIALLY for 1st timers, they need to let you book on that day. When you get on the ship you really want to be able to take it all in and not stand in some line for reservations instead.
Mini-rant over.

Hope everyone has a great day.

 

[JOANNEL]

I am doing the same.

So what are all the newbies reserving tonight? We are hoping to get:
PLA rotation

Palo on day 4 (don't care if we miss pirate garb at dinner and our son should have a fun time with his friends doing their own thing at that time)

Doubloon- Pirate ship/snorkeling (we already reserved other excursions)

Is that it?
I have to look at my notes

I am going to link dinner reservations if you would like to join us. Ijst send me all your names, room number, ages and early or late. I am going to request PLA since that seems to be what every one wants.

It is very annoying Nancy...you rant away Girl.

Good morning/afternoon, everyone. Another Monday....laundry day for me. And I've got to clean out this desk and get to the gym.

Janice--your plan for walking sounds good, but I saw you playing volleyball for the 4th of July--you're already in good shape, girl.

Hey Nancy. I have that footage already digitized. I'll cut it and post it on You Tube today. It's Wisconsin Dells Circa 1964 I think that I am about 2 years old in this video. You can see my mom and she must have recently given birth (within the last 6 mos or so) to my Brother Rick. As Usual my Dad was holding the camera and you don't see him at all.

Thanks Steve. I can't wait to see that. So much has changed up there in the past few years. We were just talking about it with a hotel owner that we are friends with in the Dells. He had a few pictures in the lobby of the hotel office that were fun to look at too.

 

[disgrits]

Hi Nancy. Bye Nancy. It seems like you and I can't get on at the same time. I've got to go and be a taxi now....

Welcome Chris!! You won't slow the thread down at ALL - jump right in with any questions!

My name is Angie and this our first cruise too! I'm travleing with my hubby Dave and 2 daughters - Abby and Becca (ages 11 and 8).

From what I understand, DCL didn't release ANY new brunch spots and we SHOULD be able to book it onboard (hopefully - we were hoping to do that as well)

Welcome again!!
