EBPC December 9, 2012!!! Who's in????

[dthogue]

Hi all,

We have just booked on to this cruise after lots of investigating - it's a bit of a major operation from Australia! We are a family of four - me, DH, DD (11), DS (6). I've managed to read through most of your posts - you have all been busy!

We would love to particpate in the FE exchange, and can you please add my name to the Panama Canal certificate list?

Would also love if both my kids could meet some other kids of similar ages via email before we sail - we did this on our Baltic cruise and it made the world of difference to my kid's enjoyment of the holiday. schepp - I'll PM you, as my daughter will be about 6 weeks off turning 12 when we sail. Anyone else interested pls PM me.

Thanks,
Rach

Welcome Coming from Australia - wow - that is our dream vacation - lucky you!

I am seriously thinking of booking this cruise. Is anyone looking to share transfers from the port at Miami to Fort Lauderdale airport??? There will be my husband and myself.

Hope you decide to join us - we will be flying out of FLL too - just haven't finalized our plans - if we leave on Sunday our flight leaves at 2:50, but we might wait and fly home Monday morning.

Thank you to Moby for directing me to this thread. Sailing with DH, DD7 and DD4. This is our first cruise.

I was looking at the excursion for Paradise Village in Puerto Vallarta on the DCL website, which friends of ours have done in the past and highly recommend. It lists the excursion with one hour total travel time (30 min each way), and four hours of fun time. On the MR itinerary the port time is listed as 7:30am-5:30pm. The EBPC itinerary lists the port time as 10:30am-3:30pm. Guessing it's shortened since we have to make the PC by daybreak to get through, as it's one of the shortest days of the year?

Welcome - that excursion sounds like fun - I'm hoping Disney posts the excursions for our cruise - I really want to see what's offered since our port times vary from those on the MR cruises.

Yay! Of course I can't find the email with the link, but we picked out what we'll do this week, now I just have to order the supplies. Exciting!

I will email it to you

 

[socababy]

I will email it to you

Would you mind emailng me the link again as well? I thought I had it saved but cannot find it! Thanks!

Also, I see that you are looking for the Hawaii navigators. I have all of them but my scanner is not working. I'm sure they are floating around the DIS somewhere. If you want me to look up anything, just let me know!

You are welcome! We were on the Mexician Rivieria cruise in December and our port time in PV was 7:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. The EBPC ports times are shorter, so I'm also wondering how that will affect excursions.

I emailed you the link - let me know if it doesn't come through.

I was just curious what shows they offered at night and what was offered on the Sea days - was thinking that they might be similiar to what they offer us.

Here are the shows that played in the WD theatre each night.

Night 1- All Aboard, Remember the Magic
Night 2 - Toy Story
Night 3 - Comedy and Mystery of Guy Bavli
Night 4 - Who Wants to be a Mousketeer (didn't go to this but I think it was a game show)
Night 5 - Comedy and Magic of Mike Super
Night 6 - Movie-The Avengers
Night 7 - (can't find this navigator at the moment)
Night 8 - Keiki Hula Show
Night 9 - Comedy and Ventriloquism of Ronn Lucas

Night 11 - Golden Mickeys
Night 12 - Hawaiian vocals of Lehula Kalima

Since we have several first time cruiser and many sea days has anyone thought about organizing a cabin crawl?

We did it last December on the Wonder and most people enjoyed it.

Welcome all the new families! Don't forget to join our facebook group too!

I was wondering, has anyone made any designs or logos for our cruise yet, or can you point me in a direction to people who can? We need some awesome designs made so that we can all incorporate them into magnets and FE gifts!
