I have a DS who is 8. His name is John and gets along with everyone of all ages. Let me know if they want to talk on the computer. I will type for him. I am usually on in the evenings. School has already started here so he's not home during the day. Hope they can get together I think that would be great!!!

Carolyn...Where in Florida are you? Are you driving up Friday Night?

Joanna

By the way I have a DD who will be in the 8-9 group

Thanks for all the advice and good wishes.

I think tomorrow I am going to call another surgeon and see if they could fit me in. The dentist said I didn't need antibiotics but I want to see what the surgeon says about that. I have always heard you need the antibiotics before they pull the tooth.

Bobby congratulations on becoming an uncle. My girlfriend was over tonight with my god daughter, babies are so great, enjoy.

Hi Everyone! First....Bobby & Cindy....Congratulations! Glad to hear everyone is doing well. Second...Lyn: I'm sorry that little black cloud has found its way to you! I personally would probably want the tooth pulled before the cruise, because I'd be too afraid it would act up while I was on the Cruise, & a toothache is the one thing that will knock me on my rear! Third...Pattiteach: My DS & my girlfriends DS are both 9. My son is also shy & I'm worried about him enjoying the club also. DD who is 10 is very outgoing & so I know she will be fine! Fourth...are any of us 1st time Cruisers? I just found out I could get a credit of $50 for being a first time cruiser! I contacted DU & Tammy got all 3 cabins $50 each...for a total of $150! Woo Hoo! I'm not even going to tell the others about the credit until we are onboard! That way they will have a little surprise! So if any of you are 1st time cruisers ask your TA about the onboard credit! After all, every little bit helps! Especially if we all have to keep Bobby in drinks!LOL! . Well, I think that's it for now! Have a great night everyone & STAY WELL! Kathy

Happy Belated BirthdayMARYANNE. just reading y'day posts this AM. I went to PISCEO Lake for you New Yorkers...It was great. A prelude to the cruise.(hardly).
Bobby and Cindy congrats. I miss having babies around.. And no this cruise is no 2nd honeymoon. Well it will be mine and Martys 2nd Anniversay... no babies ...
Lynn My heart goes out to you. I remember my wisdom teeth pulled. Do what will make you more comfortable for the cruise.Joanna glad your daughter is better as well.
I have not heard from my son at camp yet... I wrote him 1 letter. He probably won't get it till I pick him up.
We have less than 13 days till we leave.
Stay well everyone..

I was having a hard time seeing my son and hubbie in a shirt and tie and not a tux. Well doing some research .. our local TUX store had a cruise special for 10 days to rent a tux for $79 plus tax.. thats cheaper than for a wedding. Than I looked at the DCL formal rentals. still $$$ . I did some ebay searches and found a brand new light wool/poly blend for less all that... I can't believe my husband has a brand new TUX. I guess we will have to play dress up more often.
My son wanted a white Dinner jacket and he already had the black pants to match... He looks so cute. Now I better hope my gowns fit,,lol

OK, you made me cry.

Happy Belated birthday Mary Anne.

Lynn, get that tooth taken care of. There is nothing like tooth pain to make you miserable. Hope another surgeon can see you sooner and get you painfree.

Kathy...way to go with the onboard credit!

FYI -- MENU AND THEME NIGHT CHANGES......

Okay -- I just got off the phone with a DCL rep who was very informative about this subject.

She said yes, the Mexicali.... theme night HAS been replaced by the Pirate theme deck party. This will occur on Cozumel night. The menus for that night will reflect the pirate theme. When I expressed disappointment that they chose that night to change a theme instead of the Around the World or Chef Series nights, which are included on BOTH Eastern and Western, she said that has been the complaint she is hearing. People who have never sailed on the Western cruise won't get to experience the Mexican themed night now and she said some have expressed their dismay. Someone even told her that the pirate theme would be more in line for the Eastern Caribbean rather than Western.

I don't care -- it should be fun to see our servers running around as pirates!

Anyway, she also said all of the rotation menus have been tweaked and slight changes to each one has occurred.

Thanks for all of the info Invaderzim!!! Much appreciated! I'm curious though, the reports coming from the Magic this week indicated that they were having the Pirate theme on the Eastern as well.

Hey all,

Just a quick note from a cyber store in St. Thomas. The Magic is as awesome as usual!!

Last night we saw the new shoe in Rockin Bar D...it was a music trivia game. Was okay, needed more people in the audience.

Tonight is the new Pirates of the Caribean deck party. Looks like it's gonna be cool...we saw the cruise director practicing early yesterday morning. Sounds like it may be a new menu tonight but not sure yet.

The thread: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=622715

From this post and your info it seems that the new pirate theme is on both the Eastern and Western.

Hi everyone!

CONGRATS Bobby and Cindy on being a new aunt and uncle!!!!

Maryanne!

Lyn...sorry to hear that the little sickness/accident curse on our group found its way to you. Good luck!

Invaderzim...thanks for the info!

So this will no longer be Tropical night??? Or is my Tropical Disney Dress still fitting attire????? So is this Pirates of the Carribean night now????

Kathy...question about the $50 credit for 1st time cruisers - we booked thru DCL so I am unsure if it applies to us but it is our first cruise, so is there a booking code or something or do I just call and ask about it??

You guys are all just so full of info!!! THANKS

Melanie

Good question, I'd like to know, too.

 

[Samsara]

I think the Mexicali/Tropicali attire will still work. This is so new that it's going to take some time before word spreads about the change.

Plus, what the heck do pirates wear anyway???

I have another incident of the black cloud to report. Today I went to take out the trash at work and I was bit by two bees on the back of my hand. Needless to say my hand immediately swolled up and I couldn't get my rings off. I finally ran and got kitchen soap and managed to get them off but my hand is killing me. I am allergic so it required a trip to the doctors and a shot.

Oh yeah the new oral surgeon could not see me until after the cruise but prescribed pain killers just in case and antibiotics. He was very nice and sympathetic. He said the antibotics should take care of any chance of pain because it will get rid of the absess, but he didn't want to take any chances so he gave me a prescription for pain meds also.

Hopefully this will be the last problem for everyone before the cruise.

[pattiteach]

Carolyn and Nuts4snoopy, I would love to introduce our kids. I will not be at the Radission the night before. Maybe, we can all meet on board at some activity and see how they are? I am really getting nervous about the weather.......

Hi all! Melanie: I believe the first time cruiser code was CTC . Give DCL a call & if that doesn't work let me know. I believe you can also say someone who previously cruised referred you to DCL. If they need a name I can PM you with a name & date of cruise, but I believe the code I gave you is the code you need. Pattiteach Will you be at the DIS meet after the sailaway party? Or maybe we could meet somewhere before the sailaway party? I will also mention to my kids, my daughter had e-mailed another Dis'ers niece & I'm hoping they will get to meet also. I haven't been letting my DD online while I'm not at home, so I don't know how much they've e-mailed each other.Lynr: You certainly are having a tough week! I've never been stung by a bee, but I can't even imagine being stung by two, & being allergic also! Hope you're better now! Talk to you all later! (Typing this from work)! Kathy
