8/31/08 Wonder - Who's sailing

[Tigger98]

Okay - for those of you who have cruised DCL before, you should have made your excursion reservations.

For our first timers - you have one week from today (6/10) and then you can make your excursion reservations.

Good Luck!

Sadly, I won't be able to book my cruise (never mind excursions) until July-ish...

 

[Tigger98]

Sorry to here that. Hopefully you will be able to in July.

Thank you for the reminder, I am planning to book our excursions as soon as they become available to book for us. Since we are very interested in having brunch al Palo, I'll try to get that reservation the first. We are planning to book personal watecraft at CC and Nassau city tour+ Ardastra Gardens. Anyways, suggestions are always greatly appreciated.

You're welcome.

My only advise is to go online and book shortly after midnight. I had DH (who works nights) do ours. We are doing the Dolphin Encounter. Last year, we did the Atlantis AquaAdventure with my sisters and family.

FYI - You don't have to pay when you book.

Count us in! It'll be me and my DS who is 8. This will be our 3rd cruise on the Wonder and I cannot wait until the day gets here. I just bought our flights this week!!

 

[dennismcneely]

HEY! Welcome aboard,Toesnthesand!!

It's good to know that more DISers will be sailing with us. I will be able to book excursions for our cruise next Tuesday, so we are all very excited about it.

Hope you folks have a great vacation.

Add one more pair!

We will be onboard for our Honeymoon. My plan is to keep it a surprise.

I've gotten a lot of info from the DIS, including the packing list, so I should be able to tell my DF what to pack without telling her where we're going.

Welcome!! That will be a great surprise!! I don't think I would be able to keep such a "Wonder"ful secret.

Hope you guys have great time,

It is almost time to book excursions, WOOHOOOOO!!!!!

I made final payment the other day, and just sent my info to DU, hopefully I'll be able to look it up on the DCL site soon.

Looking forward to the vacation. I just booked a week at WDW for January, so we're psyched about that too.

Anyone doing any other planning?

 

[SAGE]

We'll be on the ship too! 2nd cruise for us. Loved it!

 

[Tigger98]

Welcome everyone! Well, we are almost at the 2 month mark. Hopefully, you all were able to book you excursions.

 

[Monte Cristo]

How's everyone doing?? Looking forward to my first cruise! We are considering staying on the boat at Nassau! Are we nuts?

 

[Tigger98]

No. I thought about about doing the same thing. However, I thought about it and decided on the Dolpin Encounter. We got an early slot and will be back on board between 1 and 2.

Almost 1 month left to go! Who is getting excited? Has anyone started packing?

 

[SAGE]

Lots of people stay on the ship
Last year we did get off for the morning. Never visited Nassau before so it was fun.

We are also on the 3 day prior to this cruise and I've booked the Dolphin Encounter for then. I haven't decided if we will get off the ship on the 4 day.
Depending on the weather, we may walk over to the British Colonial Hotel -

Haven't starting packing but did pick up some stuff at the Dollar store yesterday.

 

[dennismcneely]

Hey Folks!

So good to hear from you again. Of course we are all getting excited as our cruise time comes closer, we have not yet started packing , although we are probably the first ones in leaving home ( we leave on August 18th and will be spending 12 days in Orlando before our cruise ) I have already booked all the excursions and activities we wanted to do and I have also ordered gift baskets from "the perfect gift" for the girls. About Nassau, we are exploring on our own some interesting places near the ship, actually I got the link below , from another DISer, which should be really helpful in touring the city. Then at 1:15 pm we will be doing "Discover Atlantis" through Disney.

note that there is a map you can print at the bottom of the website.

Take care,

Dennis

I think I've always gotten off the ship for about an hour and then always find myself wandering back and straight to the pool. It's very nice and quiet. We've always done 3 days in the past so with having the extra day this year I went ahead and booked a room at the Comfort Suites and we'll be playing at Atlantis for the afternoon.

 

[Tigger98]

We are almost there - Just one more month and then time to have fun!!

 

[dennismcneely]

Thanks for the reminder!

20 days left for us to leave Madrid for Orlando, Woohooooo!!!

We are already enjoying so much making our door magnets. Hope everyone is getting excited.

See you all real soon.
