Is there a last minute second FE group? We couldn't commit to the big group but would be interested in joining a few families. DD 7 and celebrating DD turning 5. Can't wait for the trip.

I accomplished a huge task today by going through the kid's closets and having them try on clothes. Now is the fun part...packing!!!
On a separate note, we had Mickey Mouse call the other night as scheduled. When the call first comes in, you have to press 1 when you are ready for your "message." I am super bummed to say that it didn't work. I continued to press 1 as it prompted to. The call was then disconnected. The automated call even called back again and it still didn't work. I'm going to set up another call with the hopes that it'll work this time.
Have a great week everyone!
We have just booked this cruise and there will be 8 of us in our group! My daughter is in tears right now though about the cruise because she is a senior in high school and we did not know they changed the rules and once you are 18, even if you are in high school, you cannot be in Vibe (she just turned 18 2 weeks ago). I am hoping there will be some other 18 year olds in the same boat that she can find to be friends with otherwise she will have to hang with us all week.
Here who is coming:
Me(Krisann) 12th cruise
Ashlyn (DD18) 12th Cruise
Aaron (DS15) 12th Cruise
Ashley (DH) 10th Cruise
Jeanette (MIL) 4th Cruise
Susan (friend of family) 1st cruise
Adam (7)
Jenna (9)
We are looking at a relaxing time and time to disconnect with things before we open a retail shop where we live the week after the cruise!
Welcome to all those who have joined our party! I think I got everyone added to the roll call. Please let me know if I made any mistakes. I do that sometimes.
The suitcases are officially in the house. LOL! I haven't officially started putting things in them yet, but I do have some piles of stuff on top of them.
For those of you who are last minute planners, I don't think I should tell you that we are already planning our 2014 vacations right now. We are not happy if we don't have at least one vacation in the planning stages.
Anybody been to the ports of call before? Being we are late to the party the excursions we want are full. And we understand often it maybe cheaper to do it on our own anyways.
In St. John's we want to go to Magen's bay. The excursion is booked. But I'm sure we can take a taxi there on our own? Sounds like there is plenty of food options there to spend the day there.
San Juan, wed like to do the old city tour. Is it right off the port dock and we can walk around ourselves or is it spread out in area?
Today is the first time I've been on here in awhile. Looks like a great group of people. Can't wait!

Hi there!
I am just curious which of you guys are signed up for late dining. I am good with it, coming as we are from the West Coast, and my kids are good sports about staying up late.
Also, I was wondering from those of you who have cruised before with your families, have you usually had just your family at the table, or have you been paired with a similar family? We will be fine either way, but just curious what your experiences have been. I have only cruised two other times - once with my extended family (11 people at one table) and once with a friend (two adults and our two girls).
Getting excited, and now a little anxious! Need to start packing (and printing my magnets!)
We have never cruised before. All of the documents state that we can have copies of our birth certificates and not the originals. Is this correct? Also, do they really check to see if all meds are in the original containers. I'll need an extra suitcase for that!! Getting excited and making lists like crazy - I don't want to forget anything!!

I have never cruised DCL before but, I have been on many other cruises on different cruise lines. My medications are always in a daily "pill box". I keep it in my carry-on bag just in case my checked luggage gets lost. No one has ever questioned me or looked at it.
