8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC #7

[poohmomof5]

I actually agree with you about leaving a little one on the boat. That is why we made it a rule this year that we wouldn't do any excursions if the whole family couldn't do them. On past cruises, we've skipped several things because our youngest couldn't go. I did go to Tulum with my Dad, but my Mom and DW stayed with my youngest. We did leave him on the boat for about an hour while we shopped in Key West and Cozumel, but that was about it and we were never more than a few blocks away.

Like I said, I'm sure my DS would rather babysit than go, but we're going to try to push him anyway! My two youngest are very excited about it and we also look forward to zipping with you.





Thanks...we'll probably go ahead and pay as well just to secure our reservation...do they send you a confirmation of payment and time back? This excursion really sounds fun!

I researched zip line tours close to home. There are about a couple within a two hour or so drive of our house. The one at Vail costs about $125 and you only get 5 zips. Another one is six zips for $80 but the longest is only 400 feet. There is one that is train accessible only and I think you get 27 zips, but the cost is $330 pp. We're getting a bargain -- 14 zips and $300 for five of us!

I forgot, I have a DS13, DD14 and DS16 to encourage him. I bet he will do it if they are together...

Now if you are talking DCL flights, nope, doing those on my own, much cheaper.

Totally agree on that one... We paid lke 1/4 of Disney's price! Couldn't believe we got em that cheap too for 2 one-ways...

From the Doubletree???

No from the bus station in ARUBA...

I was thinking that the bus would be great. Then again, how many pirates will fit on their city bus??

I still haven't reserved this one yet. This is what I want to do in Aruba, but although I've PIF, I'm still hesitant on booking non-refundable excursions.

Wonder if we could charter a bus for the 40 or so of us...?

BTW There still is room on the boats Monica....

No formal plans for Port Canaveral to MCO. I haven't booked my flights yet, but that will determine whether I go with DCL or a rental. If I have a late afternoon flight, I'll get a rental so we can either do a waterpark or Downtown Disney before the airport.

Hey Monica.... If you need to go directly to the airport...I have a SUV and could get you there as we're going to Disney overnite afterwards....

If you go to the waterparks....We'll be at Typhoon Lagoon on that
Monday (1st) ...Maybe we'll see you there...

OK, has anyone else noticed the PIF date debate on the main boards:

DON'T EVEN LOOK STACE...

Yet another example of 4 different answers from DCL.

I just can't help myself.......

..phoomom.,.after several..fail-curses...we have some door magents!

how's your?

No luck, couldn't get my magnet paper to pull through printer. I need to spend more time on it! How did you get it done?

Yeah our printer won't pull anything other the normal sheet bond either

 

[justmestace]

I DID manage to stay off the "urinating" thread.

I just wonder why the OP says she's never cruising DCL again because of this??? Does she honestly think that type of thing is less likely to happen or to be handled (no pun intended) any differently on another cruise line? I say good riddance! More chance for the rest of us to get the Roy.

Use photo paper or cardstock and just put the sticky magnets on the back. I have some of each...including the magnet paper. But photo graphics come out much more colorful on photo paper with magnet stickies on the back.

I guess I should check that before I go buy the magnetic paper then eh?

Thanks Stace,

I might have to do that, but I am stuck with 3 packages of magnet paper now. Oh well, I will find a good use!

The last I heard was there are 2 boats going now. They should be working o the 2nd boat now. Maybe Roger will chime in here if he knows mor.

Take them back to the store.....if you still have the receipt. Or even try it if you don't have it.

So then another question... Do you put the magnets on after you get there to keep the paper flat?

I bet a suite is about to come available.

Good afternoon!

I called the lanyard company and was told that we have plenty of room on the lanyard for what we would like..only down side ..I can not do an apostrophe so to do something like this:

Pirates Through The Caribbean - Captain Jacks Repositioning Repossession Cruise - August 2008

We would have the ' between Jack and the "s" missing. I am not sure that is a huge problem. I know gramatically that it is wrong but let me know your opinion.

I am going with the bright green on black. They are $1.00 each and you just need to PM me your quantity choice. Please include your stateroom # if you have one or else send it to me when you get it so I can deliver the lanyards to you if I miss you in the terminal. You can pay me when you get the lanyard..no need to send me payment. (With the cost of stamps - it wouldn't be worth it) At the terminal..just look for the crazy lady holding 100 black/green lanyards!

Thanks!

So why do you want to get to the Doubletree in Aruba??

I DID manage to stay off the "urinating" thread.

That's because it wouldn't be a problem for you Stace. You could fashion a privacy screen out of your granny panties.

So then another question... Do you put the magnets on after you get there to keep the paper flat?

I bring mine in a photo mailer....the hard envelope things. And I use that to bring home my Shutters photos so they don't get bent.

But I do put the magnets on at home. I just make sure I've let the paper dry for a couple of days, put the magnets on, and put them into the hard envelope.

Hmmmm....maybe I shouldn't have told the truth.....
