Lessa, sorry about your ADR crisis. That's why every time my plans changes while planning, I trashed the old ones. I found myself getting so confused. Hope you can get it all straight.

Hope the rebooking of the ADR's goes smoothly!!

Oh No sorry your ADR's didn't match up with your park schedule . Hoping you will be able to move them without any problem. Looks like our dates wil overlap because we are going in May for Thomas' Bday! We will be staying at Saratoga from May 17th- 22nd. Wish we were going on the cruise too , maybe next year. I'm looking forward to hearing all about it. I would love to go to Tortola, it looks amazing. Anyway you should be able to get an ADR for lucnh at Le Cellier! i just got one for 4:10 this morning! So I will be able to do the DIs meet at 3 PM in France with you all . I just switched my waterpark day and Epcot days around .

Hey Nichole! I am so excited that we will be traveling at the same time after chatting with you on the Dis this past year and a bit.

Yep, silly me, never again!

Well after examining my schedule it looks like I only mixed up my AK and MK days so I only had to rebook my MK ADR's as I hadn't made any for AK, everything else was fine. It was super easy too and the CM was really nice when I told her how stupid I had been. I got Liberty Tree Tavern and The Plaza at the same times as before now just a day earlier!

I'm glad I didn't have to rearrange all my ADR's!

Hiya Jordan, don't worry this thread is slow moving, not much to catch up on.

 

[jordanyosh]

Okay, caught up.

If you have questions about the cruise let me know. I did the same basic cruise except we went to St Maarten instead of Tortola......On St Thomas if they have excursions to St John. Go to Trunk Bay. One of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. If they did it like they did before, you're only on St. John for 3-4 hours and you're back at the ship by 2pm. Most people are still out and the ship is pretty quiet. It's nice.

Thanks Jordan, I am planning on booking the Trunk Bay excursion, it looks SO beautiful. Only two more weeks until I can book excursions! That also means two weeks until the cruise has to be paid off.

Maybe we can organize a Focker cruise in the future.

 

[lazydoxy66]

OOOOO Focker cruise - I'm in!

I'm glad the ADRs worked out. Talk about a melt-down moment.

Sounds Good to me Just think how easy Dis Meets would be

 

[anbouk]

Glad I found you again! Can't wait to hear more about your cruise experience! BTW, who did you book the cruise thru? May look into a possible cruise pre or post holiday trip, we'll see! Gotta get that ocean fear outta me, though Can't wait to hear all about it

 

[Loafmastermom]

Well, thanx for the pics Lessa! Just caught up. I drive River Rd. almost every day.

Gotta get that cruise DVD...

OMG, Trunk bay is beautiful! I have pictures from 1996 , if you want I could scan a few of them. It's my favorite Beach/ water in the world. I also think the baths in Virgin Gorda are supposed to be awesome! I have never been there though.

Very true, and it would be affordable for those of us who would share rooms. Anybody want to be my roomie?

Originally I booked straight through Disney Online and got a $25 onboard credit. I then saw that Dreams Unlimited was offering good deals with their onboard credit so I transferred the ressie over to them and got $200 in onboard credit which leaves us with a total of $225 onboard credit. That is enough to pay for our excursions at one of the ports and a meal at Pelo.

If you use itunes Disney Cruise line has a free video podcast which is pretty much exactly what you would get on the promo dvd.

I would love to see your pictures.

We are definitely going to try and book the excursion to the Baths. I have been reading up on it and everybody seems to say that it is just beautiful and something not to be missed. Not your average Caribbean beach.

Hi Lessa,

It's scary how quickly the 'pay for it' day comes!!!!
