I am pricessfan2006's DH I was hoping to get a group of divers together to do a dive not listed on the excursion list. I have found a great place in grand caymen and was hoping for a dive buddy. it's EDEN rock dive center. I am also looking for a dive in cozumel. If anyone has any suggestions or is planning a dive there let me know. I just got certified and want to find a small group to go out with. I am hoping to do my advanced course before the trip. any interest or information would be appreciated.

Hi.............I am not a diver myself, but my husband is and has a dive planned for Mexico. I am SURE he would love to hook up with a group. I will have him post here with his specifics.

I want to wish everyone out there with school age children, good luck with your school year!

DS has freshman orientation tomorrow, for only 2 hours, then school starts Thursday. I am very excited, he and I are both ready for him to go back to school.

Only two months to our cruise. I need to buy an over the door clear shoe holder, and a few other things.

My older two started today. They both jumped on the bus with smiles on their faces .

We booked this cruise two years ago with our friends. Back then it seemed like ages away...we would say the kids will be in 4th grade and 1st grade and it seemed like forever. Now they're in 4th grade and 1st grade!!

The one funny thing that happened is our boys are in the same class. Now we both need to tell the teacher that they'll miss 4 days for the cruise. It's going to be a little awkward . I hope she's nice about it!!

My older two started today as well. 8th grade and 4th grade. My DD hopped on the wrong bus coming home!! LOL My DS loved being back with all his friends... Spent the night organizing school supplies for each.

Hello Group!!

We are under the 60 day mark!!

Good luck to all of the students out there. Have a great year!!

Time is really starting to fly!! Pretty soon Halloween will be here and we will only have a few more days to go!

With the tragic events hapeing to Steve Irwin, has anyone changed their minds about going on a stingray tour? Just curious.

We chose the stingray encounter at CC because the barbs have been removed.

I decided to check on our reservations after reading a thread on upgrades. Well, we're in the same rooms (no surprise, we have connecting cabins). I decided to see if anything had opened on Palo and brunch and high tea were open!!! I got a brunch on Monday at 11:30 (the only time available)!!!

We have three kids all different ages so of course they will be in different clubs we had DD 13 DS 9 & 5 If anyone else has children this age I would love to hear from you. This is our first cruise and I am worried my teenager will be bored being alone I think the boys will be fine.

We are a group of 47 on this cruise. We have Annie (she will be 13 on 12/2), Megan (she will be 13 in March) and Kathy (she will be 14 on 11-30). If you want to PM an e-mail or AIM, I will give it to Annie. This will be her 8th Disney Cruise (mom is addicted ) But the kids don't mind.

Hello Everybody.

Names Dale I've posted here on the DIS a while back but life got me busy. Now that is starting to get close for us I came back to check on the latest Cruise news and rumors.

I found our thread.

We are also on this cruise with you guys. It's our first cruise. It's gonna be myself, my wife Melissa and our DD (9) Amba.

We are super excited. I was able to get a Palo reservation. It wasn't the day I wanted but at least it's not during Pirates in the Carabiean and it's not during the first days of dinner rotation.

We also got the shore excursion we wanted. We are only doing one, other than that we're just getting off the ship and looking around a bit.

Is anyone planning on going to scuba dive while we are at Cozumel or Grand Cayman? My husband just got certified.....

My DH & I will both be scuba diving. We dove in Key West, Grand Cayman & Costa Maya (port chgd) last year. I think we are going to skip Key West this time, but are diving the other two. We're really looking forward to Cozumel, as we didn't get to go there last year. I haven't booked anything yet. I had been looking at Eagle Ray Divers in Cozumel for last year and we dove with Divers Down in Grand Cayman, which was great because you could walk there from the ship. Would love to hear other scuba divers plans!

I'm sitting here watching a show on the Travel Channel on the Disney Cruises. It's making me wish I was on the Magic right now. Not much longer to wait.

 

[disneylover5]

We watched too....I think I have seen this same show 400 times

I love it more each time
