Ok everyone...we are down to double digits...lets get this board hoppin

 

[Sue (mom of 3 boys!)]

Hey guys. I had to cancel the cruise so I could take my daughter on a field trip to Disney. I wish I could have done both but I had to choose between one or the other.

Anyway, I thought you might want ot know why I havent been so active. I hope you guys have a ball!

Wow! A Disney FieldTrip?? Lucky girl! Have a great time!

I started looking at Excursions again and came across Bernard. Looks good. Has anyone used him before? It sounds like you can adjust the tour to your liking, does anyone know about this?

 

[Sue (mom of 3 boys!)]

92 Days until we sail!!!!!:cool1

OK ... now that Jen has officially announced this, she WAS our organizer. Does anyone else have any skills for that? Otherwise, I don't know how to set up the fish extenders and such.

As this is our first cruise, I'll have to take my name out of the hat for organizer.

We booked the island tour with Bernard for St. Maarten, the reviews over at Cruisecritic.com come back pretty good!

I'll have to pass, I think the main thing someone would need to do is update the roster and activities on the website she built. Maybe she could send someone the login info and password to do that?

Tomorrow is the 90 day countdown, and the day Silver's can go in and start reserving excusrions, dining, and spa treatments!

Maybe we could just talk Jen into coming in and taking care of that for us...

as for the FE's I guess I'm just bringing a bunch of gifts for everyone and will leave ours out in case we get something. Emma would be disappointed if we didn't

Wow it has been a long time since I have been here! My cruise is paid in full and I am hoping to check in after midnight tonight! I just got off of work, so I am up anyway.

Sorry to hear this. I hope you get to go on one soon. Aydan is going to be sad not getting to meet Tori!

Best of luck.

I like doing stuff like this, but I do not know how to do web pages. If someone talks to Jen maybe they can get this info. Maybe we can have a couple people doing co-organizing!

Excursions booked. Check.
Palo Brunch Booked. Check
Palo Dinner booked. Check
11:00 AM port arrival time. Check


We checked in this morning. Anyone else??

As of now, all arrival times are available, as are excursions.
We had our choice of Palo ressies for brunch (Day 3, 11:30AM) and dinner (Pirate Night, day 4, 7:00PM--already did Pirate Night with the kids and is our least favorite MDR menu).

For excursions, we booked the Mountain Top Downhill Rainforest Trek in St. Maarten, and the St. John Eco Hike on St. John. (We love hiking and can't wait for these!)

If anyone is interested (we weren't-too much $$ for our blood, lol), the cabanas are all booked. Not sure if the open up later, but just an FYI.

NOW I am excited!!! (or should I say MORE excited!!)

Glad that's done

 

[Sue (mom of 3 boys!)]

I am ready!!

Did you do it yet? I forgot all about it until just a while ago, but got it all done. Phew!

I just finished! I was able to do Palo last night, but not to check in. I got 11:00 - yayy! I did Palo for dinner on 15, it is our anniversary. I did brunch and high tea too - I never did that yet.

Now to look at excursions

 

[Tolson70]

All checked in! Working on excursions now. 11-11:30 Arrival time! wOOOt.

 

[Tolson70]

Palo - Night 3
St. Maarten - Bernards Island Tour
St. Thomas - Doubloon Cruise
Exotic Rasul Day 6 at sea

I now feel like I can relax and be ready to go!

If interested, I can update the roster on a spreadsheet and host it on Google Docs. I think I can just copy and paste Jen's original roster from the website into XL and add the other attendees from there. Cool?
