Only a few more hours to go! Unfortunately I am in Central time zone, so I'll be up until 2:00 am, and then have to get up at 6:30. I think that I will be taking a nap tomorrow with my DDs!!

I'm noticing that a lot of us have "First Disney Cruise" next to our 4/28 date. It's awsome that we'll all be newbies!

I wanted to log in to have my computer ready to make my reservations at 3 am and I am getting a message saying that they are having a problem with their reservation system. Anyone else getting this message? I don't know whether to bother getting up at 3 am now.

OMG, I just test tried the site also, and i'm getting the same message!! I'm flipped out/panicking.

 

[angilovesthemouse]

I am having same problem!!! Wonder if it will be fixed by 3am

 

[my2princessgirls]

Having the same problem here as well! I really hope that this is fixed soon. I don't want to stay up for nothing!!

 

[my2princessgirls]

Reservations for Palo on Thursday night at 9 pm (i chose late seating everynight). I wanted a sea day so i wouldnt be exhausted from a day at port. I also registered my dd's Gianna and Kayla for the club. I set my alwarm for 2:45 to make reservations and i gotta be up at 6 am I hope everyone got what they wanted also

[my2princessgirls]

Yeah! I got ours too! Wednesday at 7:00, just what I wanted. I didn't want to miss formal or semi-formal night, and looking at the most recent navigator I think that my DDs will enjoy what is going on in the club that night!

Anyone else?

 

[DeloreanGirl]

My reservation went through flawlessly and showed many date and time options for all of us. Did you all have any sucess yet? Keep trying!!

This morning I reserved "The well being massage for couples" Hopefully it's worth the $ (some ppl really don't know how to give a good massage)
I was thinking of doing a shore excursion, but the things I would be interested in would frighten my kids (dolphins/fishes/parasailing) I really don't think i'd feel comfortable doing this and leaving my dd's in the club on the boat. I also figure I can always do this w/ my honey when we take our romantic vacations alone and the girls are visiting family. They may or may not want to leave the club, but I figure we can make it simple and go to a beach or shop on the islands and not be held up for hrs. At least this is my thoughts. Which beaches will you all be going to? I havent a clue and would like some ideas. Relaxing on the beaches w/ some drinks....ahhhhh nice BTW, are the beaches free to use? Some beaches by me you actually have to pay to go on (and they arent exactly paradise beaches) Times getting near

Linda,

I hear ya. Every time DH and I do excursions we always end up not going to them because we're too tired that day or changed our minds. This time around, we didn't book anything through Disney. It IS nice to just go with the flow and hang out at the beach, in fact, I think we'll do just that! I'd like to know where the good beaches are that aren't far walking distance too. Good luck with the massage, it sounds great!

 

[Faith&Hope]

Yeah! I'm so happy you gals got your reservations! I thought about you last night! I told you not to worry....I knew you'd get them!

About the massage....I'm trying to look up who we had last year to tell you to AVOID them. We did not enjoy our massages (by a man and a woman), escpecially for the price! We considered doing the villas (which is whopper of money!) but I can't justify paying that much considering our experience last year!

 

[Faith&Hope]

Has anyone been in the Rainforest part of the spa? I didn't get to last time because it's hard to coordinate with the nursery. I want to know your experiences!!

 

[MakinMemories4MyKids]

I haven't heard about a rainforest spa. I think $242.00 is alot for a massage but I'm doing it becauseeeeeeee yea, i'm worth it lol. I'm the type of person that will ask...."will you rub my feet, rub my back, tickle my arm....i'm a needy person lol. So this will make me happy
Deloreangirl...lemme know which beach you decide to go w/.
FaithandHope....I'm real happy too that we all got what we wanted (well hopefully, still havent heard from everyone...keeping fingers crossed)
Princessgirls...I'll be missing semi-formal night, but thats ok...there's only so many fancy outfits I have lol...I gotta still buy a dress for formal night lol...i dont get out much.
Grandma...whats going on w/ you....have any luck w/ reservations?? I hope so
BTW....I get messed up w/ the screen names, if i dont have them all correct, you'll basically know who i mean,,,,i'll be close lol

Time to do homework

After not being able to log in I woke up last night and was able to log in and make a reservation for Palo for 6 pm Thursday. A little early for us but the only night that seemed to have a lot of choices was Pirate night and I didn't want to miss that. It didn't list high tea, so I guess that was sold out already. How hard is it to get a reservation on board for high tea?

 

[MakinMemories4MyKids]

Susan,

I don't have an answer to your question, but what I'd also like to know (in additon to your question) is whats the difference between brunch and high tea?? I'd think brunch is more of a meal, and tea would have tea and pastries??

Hey we got Paolo's for 9pm on Wed. night! We are late night people so this will be perfect. Especially if I am tired after ST. Thomas, I;ll have time to catch a catnap. We can feel the kids and send them to club. Miracle of Miracles, I was able to get my sister to get online this morning and book for her and bil, they are set for same time as us.


We booked the Doubloon sail for St. Thomas. Anyone else going on this excursion? I've heard really good things about it.

 

[MakinMemories4MyKids]

doubloon sail...is that the snorkling excursion? If it is, we wanted to do that also, but my dd's (6&7) are too young and would be scared to do it. I'm not sure if anyone leaves their kids on the boat for these 4 hr excursions, but i feel nervous to leave them for that long. How about you>? How old are your children, Angil? Glad you got Palos
