Well it took some time and my mom wanted to kill me for creating the cross stich patterns with 90 different colors each, but she finally finished our fishe extenders!!![GALLERY=][/GALLERY]

WOW! Those are really nice! Your mom did a great job!

So, any suggestions on what to do at Castaway Cay? Getting close to time to book excursions, our countdown is finally in double digits today! We're leaning towards the Atlantis for Nassau. Any thoughts??

The next time you make a post instead of clicking on "post reply" click on "more options" there will be two boxes under your posting. Make sure those boxes are checked. One says "watch this thread" and the other says "and receive email notifications".

That was just the advice I was looking for! Thanks!

 

[RunTara]

Thanks for the heads up I will check the flights

EDIT: No change for us. All of the returning flights are sold out except for five that are either way early or way late. Where are you flying out from? Maybe there is less demand where you are vs. flying from Denver.

Babyburrito, do you live in CO? We are flying out of Denver as well and there was only 1 flight home that could fit all 5 of us. Crazy!

Yes, we live in Castle Rock and will be flying out of DIA. I think that you are lucky that you found a flight home! Two of us will be on SWA and two of us on Frontier. Are you in Co as well? I know that some people come down from WY to fly out of DIA.

Is anyone doing Atlantis? Is it worth doing an excursion in Castaway Cay? I have the Stingray adventure booked but after reading some reviews I am not sure. As it is our family has to go in shifts because my 3 year old can't participate. Also, does anyone know how deep the water is that you have to swim through to get to Pelican plunge?

I think that it is worth doing something at Castaway Cay. We haven't done the stingray adventure but usually rent bikes to explore the island and rent snorkeling equipment to see what's under the water. They put some cool things down there to look at. You really can't go wrong at Castaway Cay! I think whatever you decide to do you will have fun.

I don't know if everyone has heard about this but for those of you who were planning on bringing liquor aboard the ship, Disney has a new policy. I guess that's the end of the mini bottles of liquor in the FE as gifts.


"Disney Cruise Line is planning to crack down on passengers who carry liquor on-board their ships.
Starting on September 30, passengers will be prohibited from bringing liquor on-board at embarkation or ports of call; however, passengers will still be able to bring two standard-sized bottles of wine or champagne, or a six pack of beer onto the ship."

 

[rcjmouse]

Two bottles per person?? Sounds like we can have a party!!

We live in Erie That's hard that you have to be on separate flights home. What a pain! Hopefully all the Disney Magic from the cruise will make it all worth it.

We are probably going to do Atlantis. My husband and I went there years ago, and I think the kids will absolutely love the water slides. It's quite the adventure.
