4/24/2010 Med cruise: Friends, Romans, Countrymen lend me your Ears

[LegalBriefs]

Welcome " legal briefs". I think there are now 7 of us from this great state.

OUTSTANDING! Maybe we should have a pre-cruise meet!? I'm on the shoreline (Guilford) but I don't mind driving! lol...

If memory serves me correctly -- most cruise docs go out around the 30 day mark - so we should all be receiving them over the next several days.

I've already got your info - you put it in the posts! (I had my reasons for asking for certain info).

And yes, free lanyards for everyone (except those who insist on paying - but totally not necessary). I've got 250, and our list is around 150 right now.

...Just wondering if this went to those on the TA cruise and also on the Med cruise that possibly received them earlier due to an earlier departure? vs we all should be expecting documents any day now.

B2B here - no Med docs yet. At first I wondered why people were getting theirs so late - then realized we're talking about another cruise - not the TA. Duh!

No, just tell your server that your child will be leaving early. Then when the yellow shirts show up in the dining room then your child just heads out with them. We were so thankful when Disney started this.!

Yellow shirts, too cute. Dh and I refer to them as the "Pied Piper", only of course following them off to a happy place and not a Grimm Fairy Tale.

Welcome to everyone new, need to catch up on this thread.

Hope all are having a great week.

Lots to do here and currently surrounded by lots and lots of packing boxes, not my idea of fun.

Looking forward to meeting everyone soon!

Still no docs. I finally called Disney myself because my TA was not doing her thing and told them I want both sets mailed out because I do not want to leave without the Med ones. The girl said even if I did not have them they would let us on because we are in "the System"I still would like them in my hand.

Good luck with your day. I know it can be hard surrounded by boxes and the turmoil change brings. My family room is out of sorts from just a weekend of painting and it makes me mental. Be seeing you soon.

Sunny and low 70s in California today.

Lynne, the name tags look great, thanks for doing them!

We have our TA documents, but not MED. Truthfully we never use the paper documents, just the online printout and the only thing I use from the paper documents is the luggage tags. In the past we have booked last minute (day before) and the porters just make up luggage tags when you get there and DCL does paperwork for you at the counter.

It's just in the last year or so DCL started sending the documents this early. I remember when they used to come a week (maybe two) before sailing.

Hope you get yours soon. I hate waiting on anything that's important to me.

Jealous of your weather and thanks, I am a little sick of turmoil

 

[grlzmom]

Ugh what a day, sitting around still surrounded by boxes, way behind on everything, ds is very sick (influenza A and the rest of the house is on Tamiflu).

Too much to do and don't even know where the luggage is.

Two weeks to go and way way behind.

With all this sitting around me why do I just wanna make magnets with my Xyron machine?

Just wondering if anyone noticed the change in euro value? I booked the Eurostar Grand Marina for myself last week and it was 127 euros or about $174 U.S.-I jsut checked the special again for a friend and it is now 127 euros or $171 U.S.-every little bit helps!!!

The postman delivered my cruise docs today - now it's real

 

[linkandclover]

I just realized I have been away for several days with my son's bar mitzvah and have had a lot to catch upon.

Welcome Everyone!!

Lynne the name tags look great and ours are accurate.

Do I need to send information to someone about our plans?
If so who and what.

Thanks

You mean for excursions? When I find a post about who's doing what, I try and put it on the website, in hope that it may help someone else make their plans.

Would you please tell me where to look to find this "special" rate. I haven't found anything close to this yet. Thank you for your help.

Sure-go to Travelzoo.com and type in Barcelona as the city then select hotel deals and follow the link to the Eurostar Grand Marina-it includes an upgrade, welcome drink, wifi & gym access and 2 for 1 breakfast! It was still available as of today...
