Mary and I have exactly the same REAS Palo dates and times as you for dinner and brunch. Also have the Tea on Dec 2. It is a surprise for her .. part of her birthday celebration!

Denise,

Thank you so much for looking up the wine info. That was so thoughtful of you. I'm not familiar with alot of the wines on either list, however, we do like Caymus wines. We usually drink Mark West Pinot Noir, Castle Rock Merlot and Chateau St Jean reds. We also like Greg Norman sparkling Chardonnay. I think we'll just have to go to the wine store this weekend and try a few new bottles before we cruise!! Such a hardship, but I'm up for the challenge!!!

Sorry, I should have clarified about the documents. I received our docs on Sunday because they were sent along with Greg's parents docs to their house. I'm not sure why, but All Seasons Travel sent our docs together. Even though we live in different cities and paid separately. Go figure.

Sorry for babbling. All for now.

Gailyn:D
 
Woohoo!! The doorbell rang around 6pm tonight..., and there were my "MAGIC"al cruise documents! :bounce: :bounce: Does anyone else think that time is just speeding by now that we've reached under a month?!

After talking to my mom and bragging a bit (but just a bit, mind you!), I thought, "Well, I can finally be the one that posts about the cruise documents!" :p Yep...addicted!

I know you guys would understand my sickness!
:p IVY :p

P.S. My nephew Matt and my niece Moriah are signed up for the Wild Side excursion on CC! Unfortunately, my dad (Eric) who wanted to do the bottom-fishing excursion got bad news...it's all full! :( I'm hoping someone cancels...he sounded really excited about the idea.
 
i'm a first time disney cruiser on this itinerary. i have a quick question, i thought i had to make my palo res when i arrive on the ship. how are some fellow cruisers getting the ressies confirmed? also the excursions....where can i make those reservations? i would LOVE to do the couples serenity spa thing i read so much about. please advise. i want to make this as less stressful as possible when i arrive on the ship. i know i will drive my hubby crazy trying to make sure we have our reservations in line for the things we want to do.
 

Hello everyone!

Jesse - I'm praying for a swift recovery for your mom!

WE GOT DOCS! The UPS guy was teasing me today when I asked if he add a package for me from Disney. He said no and held out two boxes. I wasn't expecting our docs to come in a box. He stood there staring at me so I thanked him and looked at my boxes as I was walking a way. When he heard me scream he said "Your welcome!" I told him I loved him -- I mean't it! Is this Disney thing obsessive or what:hyper:

See you all really soon!

Jennifer
 
missmulan - Those of us who have already booked Palo and spa reservations have added the REAS (Romantic Escape at Sea) package onto our staterooms already. Here's some more information on it.

from the Disney site: http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/d...ecialofferindex?id=RomanticEscapeSpecialOffer

Romantic Escape at Sea:

Add $339* per couple to 3-, 4- and 7-night Disney Cruise Line® cruise packages.



On board, you'll receive:
- Romantic gift amenity delivered to your stateroom (one per package)**
- Couples massage at the Vista Spa & Salon
- Priority seating at Palo for one night
- Romance turndown service (one night)
- Champagne breakfast in bed (one morning)**
 
Jesse - hope your mother is feeling better soon.

Tracy - you book your wine package when you board. Last year they had a table in the lobby where they took orders. If you miss it I'm sure you could do it at dinner also.

Gailyn - so much wine to taste ... so little time. Have fun!!

Ivy - we all know that document dance!! 2nd best dance in the world. The first being the day we step onto the ship!!

bodickmagic - you get your dinner rotation when you check in at the port. Or ... maybe sooner if you are doing a land/sea combination. But for those of us just cruising it is on your KTTW card.

YES ... It is getting CLOSE. Can't wait!!!

Diane
 
Ok, I'm going stark raving mad because all my shipmates are getting docs and I'm not! :confused3 :scared: :crazy: I'm soon going to need a straight jacket! :hyper:

Glad to hear so many of you are getting your docs. :Pinkbounc


Gailyn - you're welcome for the wine info. We were going to book the package, but I think we'll just wing it and choose our own wines.

Disneefun - When are your Palo ressies???

Bob - Ok, how weird is that????? I guess it's true what they say....great minds think alike!:scratchin :rotfl:

Oh, man. Had to go pull out the chart. I've got so many lists, etc. I can't keep up. Let's see...Palo dinner is the 29th @7:00 and brunch is Dec. 2 at 11:00. Still waiting on those docs. Had to go shop the halloween clearance stuff at target this morning to make myself feel better. :teeth:
 
Ah, peace and quiet. The kids are in bed and DH is settled on the couch watching TV. I can escape to the computer:)

Greg and I are trying to select a night for Palo. I had him review the menues for the restaurants and the special theme nights. He liked Thurs's menu for the Captains Gala and the "Best of" menu. My Passporter indicates that the "Best of" menu is on Sunday and another site listed it as Friday. Anyone know when it has been lately?

Also, DH's favorite appetizer is oysters on the half shell. Anyone know if they have them at Palo??

Tracy- Did you receive your tickets and docs??? You must be getting so excited!!!

I picked up my lime green Mickey's at Home Depot and now I need to get my magnetic paper. Oh, so much to do and so little time:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

Gailyn:sunny:
 
Jesse - I sincerely hope your mom is OK and what ever surgery she may need is minor!!!! Your family will be in our prayers, please keep us posted on her progress when possible.

I was soooooo excited:bounce: this morning when I flipped the calendar to see the cruise week, I can't believe we will all be on that ship soon!!! Read my whole passporter and recomend it to all newbies as it answered a lot of my questions that I have been asking you all. It's getting very cold in Chicago and can't wait to be in the sun!!!!!!:Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc :bounce:
 
Anyone else booking REASP? I need to call the TA this week and take care of that. I'm trying to decide on a dining rotation and a night for Palo and a day for brunch.

Definitly want to go to brunch on Sunday- first at sea day. Let the kids get aquainted with the club. It will be nice to have some adult time after the stress of getting us all to Port.

Still unsure of when to book dinner at Palo. I know that we don't want to miss Tropical/pirate night. DS will really enjoy that. Don't want to miss seeing AP color "show", and don't want to miss Fri night with our regular tablemates and servers. Anyone have thoughts on this? How did you choose your Palo night Denise and Bob???

Thanks for any advice.

Gailyn:)
 
dtuleya - thank you soooo much for explaning the REAS thing. i think i'll pass on that so it means i'll have to reserve Palo on our own. do i line up at guest services?? what night is pirates night? are the cabins cold at night? i'm packing the kids' jammies and i don't know if they should be wearing long sleeves or short sleeves (sigh...decisions, decisions). btw, we are on early dinner seating.

i found the answers to the palos res & pirates night question. i went to buy a costume for DS for the pirates night. also bought one of those over the door shoe hangers. the hangers itself is metal...i hope it's okay to go thru security without alot of problems. still need to know the temp inside the cabin.

Too late for me, Denise. In spite of your kind words yesterday, I find myself seriously depressed as I read with envy about everyone else getting their cruise docs and are ready to go. I'm re-living my prom days. :sad1:

Plus my quote thing isn't working!

--Curt
 
Jesse - keeping my fingers crossed that your DM won't need any surgery and a quick recovery from feeling ill.

Did anyone else get an email saying that UPS had a package for them? That's how I knew mine was on the way and then it got delayed in Kentucky for a day (I quess it missed it's flight to greensboro). My UPS man is my son's friend's father so when we got our envelope I told him to tell Connor to give his dad an extra hug from me!

I think the time is going faster as I gather everything I need. I still need a garment bag for dresses and suits. I think I will check Kohl's this weekend. I got some really nice luggage for a great deal there last year.

Well I quess I should get to work- I went to bed really early last night and didn't even turn on my laptop when I snuggled in so I was surprised to see all the posts on our thread. Have a great day everyone.

Gailyn:)


After stressing and stressing about find a "good night" to miss the regular dinner, we decided to have an early dinner at Palo's and then go to our regular dining rotation with the kids. I made sure we picked a night we were at sea and a night that there was a early show that we catch as a matinee. Does that make sense?
 
Curt - You crack me up, "re-living your prom days..." LOL. You are too funny, but then with 6 kids I guess you would have to have a good sense of humor.
