August 28, 2004 "LOST AT SEA" Cruise

[Mary Anne]

And depending on the time of year if you have bad weather at sea those are a LONG 4 days.

I think that is why I'm looking forward to only two sea days on this Disney Trip. Less chance for a long period of really bad sailing weather.

Plus, when all of you are off doing those port things, we get the whole ship to ourselves. LOL

OK scrap the 5 night Voyager, I want to see Bermuda and I want to dock. I prefer not to tender also.

WHO WANTS TO GO TO BERMUDA NEXT YEAR? LETS START A THREAD.

Another point, pick cruise that leaves on Saturday, not Sunday the ports are much nicer.

What do you mean the ports are much nicer? I thought Bermuda was Hamilton and St. George

 

[Mary Anne]

I think the Sunday one stops in KingsWafes? I do know the Sunday has one port that is different then the Saturday one. At least it used too. I'm going to check their web site now.

 

[Mary Anne]

OK only the Zenith now sails out of NY. The Horizon seem to sail out of Phila or Va. They both do go to the same ports, which are the better ones.

It used to be one sailed on Saturday and one on Sunday. The Saturday one had slightly nicer docking ports in Bermuda.

 

[Mjasp]

Thanks Mary Anne. I am going to check it out.

Next summer no airfare, just a limo into the city.

Thanks for the info Melanie! A fellow cruiser from the September 4th cruise sent me an e-mail about the FL Resident Rates. We're going to look into them for sure.


We've added new cruisers to the Disney Magic August 28th Cruise Site! With pics!

Hey Jason, thanks once again for creating and maintaining the Cruise web site.

May I make a suggestion? Do you think you could include the names of the DISers who are going on the Tulum ruins excursion? I see that you already have a section with the info. And just like the Radisson section, could you list those going to the ruins? Thanks!

P.S. I'm all ready to book excursions tomorrow. So far, here's what I'll be booking:

Grand Cayman: Nautilus semi-sub and snorkel

Cozumel: Tulum Ruins

Castaway Cay: Banana Boat

Great idea!

OK, who's going on the Tulum Ruins tour in Cozumel?



Oh, and we finally paid our cruise off! Nothing like waiting until the last minute, huh? Now we just have to pay off the second-half by next Tuesday.

Can't wait to get the excursions done!!
Can you believe it less than 9 weeks. You guys on the boards convinced me to book the REASie .I told hubbie he had to be romantic that night,,lol .
My son will stay in my sisters room.
According to Debbie, she will try to get us the APL rotation so we do the PALOS dinner Tuesday night and Palos Brunch Monday. Anyone else going those days?romantic
Terry: We are doing different excursions than you are. There are so many to choose from

Key West -Nothing since we have family there.
Grand Caymen- Ship wreck and snorkeling-You will never see me do STINGRAYS again
Cozumel -Beach Break
Cataway Key Banana boat and Parasailing.

Maybe we will meet up there somewhere.

Anyone else have excursion ideas?

Bobby - for the last two years in cozumel we have left the kids on the ship while we did a little jewlery shopping and then we went back and got them and did family stuff....

This year will be the same.. DH is buying me diamond earings for my 40th birthday and then we will take the kids to Mr Sanchos for the rest of the afternoon...

 

[missinshadow]

i see everyone talking about reserving Palos now. Can we reserve now or do we have wait until we are onboard
