4/29/06 Eastern Magic...We're Going!!!!!

[Sue718]

I have never heard of such a thing...

Perhaps they do that so you don't book for "friends", but if they are not in the same cabin??? I don't get it.

You'll find out in a few hours!

Good Luck!

Thought we'd introduce ourselves also. We are from the rainy Pacific NW. You will recognize us by our pasty white skin staring at the bright orange globe in the sky that we have not seen for awhile.

This is our first cruise. We've been fans of the mouse for a long time. We even had a giant Mickey ice sculpture built into the champagne fountain at our wedding reception, so it seemed fitting to celebrate our anniversary cruisin' with the the mouse.

We booked the duck tour on St Maarten and the Buck Island catamaran snorkel for St John's. Anyone been?

We've learned so much from reading your posts, and appreciate all the info. We're very much looking forward to meeting all of you on the high seas.

Welcome Roses!!!!

Ok guys I don't know how many of you will see this in time but I just called DCL to confirm we are paid in full because it simply said booked at their sight. The CM told me yes we were paid in full and all set to make reservations. She said though that we could do it at 12:00 am and did not have to wait until 3am because they are in Florida and on Eastern time. I plan to try at midnight and if it doesn't work go to bed and be back up at 3:00.

MOM2- I have never heard that about CC members either, as far as I have read it was simply the entire cabin. It would be to difficult the other way.

Just wanted to say I hope everyone who's able to book things tonight gets what they want. Here's some pixie dust for you all.... Can't wait to hear all about the process tomorrow as I have to wait also. Also, Castlegazer do you think I could get that spreadsheet as well? I'd really appreciate it.
Also... to Roses

Thanks for the well wishes, I am sitting here watching boxing on HBO just waiting until midnight so that we might be able to book the Palo Brunch and Dinner for our group. I told the Queen it is just like getting up early to book the castle for our princesses, but this one is for the Queen. I figure we can log back in tommorrow for getting the kids set up for the clubs, but tonight is for us. Good luck to everyone else, maybe we will be lucky enough to see you all at Palo for a little adult time.

We're new to cruising and new to this board and getting very excited about our 4/29/06 cruise. I realize in about one minute many of you lucky 90-dayers will be trying to get reservations, and I'm so excited for you all! We have to wait until 2/13 for ours along with the rest of the ship, I guess. We will be 2 families traveling together myself, DH (8), DS (12) and his friend (12), all from NW WA, and then a friend from GA and her DH (6). I haven't been able to read this massive thread all the way through yet and catch up with you all, but I wanted to just introduce myself and wish you all happy and successful reservations!

 

[mketting]

Ok no luck so far?? Anyone else get through?

 

[OHJulie]

No luck here either - looks like we may be up again at 3:00.

 

[mketting]

OK glad its not just me. I'm going to wait 5 more minutes and then go to bed.
I guess the people on the dis do know more than the CM"S on the phone.

 

[Belle and Rella's Dad]

No luck here, this stinks I was already tired.

Tom

 

[mketting]

See ya at 3:00.

 

[mketting]

I'm back. This is painful.

 

[OHJulie]

AAHH, success.

Your right MK it was painful getting out of bed, but I booked our Palo reservations for exactly the days I wanted as well as our excursions.

YEH!

Now I'm wide awake - I may never get back to sleep.

My DS is having a sleepover with 3 boys - sounds like they are wide awake also. Could be a LOOONG night!

OHJulie

 

[mketting]

Got all of mine too. Unlike your house my is sound asleep, Kirk heard the alarm and the rolled over and went back to sleep so I am heading back up and will try to get back to sleep. Hope you get some sleep Julie

Good Morning Gang! I woke up at 6 and made my reservations for exactly when I wanted them as well. I don't know about the brunch, but I can always cancel that before we sail. I booked it for Monday at 11. Dinner Wednesday night at 9. Everyone just keep their fingers crossed for us that Katie likes the club this time! Oh and that was a breeze- getting the registration done ahead of time. For those of you who haven't cruised before-this is a huge improvement over standing in the line for the Club/Lab registration!

NEED MY COFFEE!!!!

Have a great Sunday!

He did it! He did it!!! My sweetie stayed up until 3AM and booked our Palo ressies. We're doing brunch at 11:30 am on Monday and dinner at 7:30 on Thursday...we figure we can always change the times later if we decide that a different time would be better. Time for me to make the coffee!!!
