I have been lurking for awhile. We will be on this cruise also. Myself, Dh & adult ds. We were able to get Palo's for both brunch & dinner. I'm so excited cant wait.

Hi my name is Spencer and Avery is my little (and not as cool) sister.

I am 11 years old and I am really looking forward to the cruise as well.....are there other guys out on the boards that are going to be hanging out at Quest or on the Sports Deck???????

I play hockey, soccer, volleyball, and pretty well anything else like that. Also love Video Games but I doubt my parents will let me play much of them on the cruise. I plan on being on the sports deck as much as possible.

Hey my name is Will. I am 9 & I like video games & sports, maybe we can hang out at the sports deck. I play football, basketball, skateboard & snowboard.

-For those of you staying at Port Canaveral on Friday night - where are you staying? I have reservations at both Radisson at the Port and Country Inn and Suites. I'm thinking we'll stay at CIS because of the free breakfast. Anyone else?

- St. Thomas - anyone interested in joining us for the Henry's EEE tour? It has a tour, beach time then shopping. http://www.eeetours.com/index.html

- St. Maarten - I'm thinking that we might do Bernard's tours (which is sort of like St. Thomas' tour).

75 days left!

Hmmm...after doing a little more research, we may just two the Under 2 Flags tour in St. Maarten. Bernard's Tour would be almost twice as much!!

We are staying at County Inn & Suites Friday night. I heard it's new & a little nicer than Radisson (although I don't really think it matters for one night). Don't have a clue on what we are doing at the ports yet. We want to go to the beach & shopping.

Woohoo! Got Palo dinner for 8 PM on Wednesday. I think/hope I calculated it right. No brunch or teas were available when I logged in right at midnight.

We are doing Palo at 8pm on Wednesday too!

Spencer you well love The Quest...I think it is called the Edge now. My son was 11 on the last trip and he spent a lot of time in there and on the top deck playing basket ball. Wall to wall tvs for Video games. My son is 13, I am sure you will see him there playing videos or up on the court. His name is Nick.

Say Hi to Nick for me and tell him that I am up for a BBall game

Was able to finally book our excursions etc. but ran into a bit of a problem with our Palo's reservation. There are 3 of us in our party but it would only allow me to book a table for 2 so all 3 of us can't go. When we tried to link the third party, it appeared to work but I found out differently when I called the Disney Agent today. There are no longer any tables that will accomodate 3 people at all on this sailing. I have kept the reservation for 2 people but was wondering if anyone has been sucessful with adding an extra person to the table without a previous reservation once you are on the boat.
Thanks!

Congratulations! Keep checking for Brunch and tea, you never know when 1 might show up from someone cancelling!

We are staying at CIS!

We are staying at the Residence Inn and were planning to try to go to one of the local restaurants for dinner (I think I have seen Grills and Fish Lips). We will be to the port around 11AM, so we should have plenty of time to swim and have a nice dinner. Anyone else planning dinner Friday night?

We tried Florida Seafood Company last time and the crab was delicious. Might try Grills or Fish lips this time though.

We are booked at the CIS on the Friday night as well. Our flight does arrive until 7:30 pm so will be later checking in. I am sure there will still be a party going somewhere.

How are you getting to CIS?

Welcome and congrats on booking Palo!

CIS is very nice, we also heard bad about the Radisson

We are doing Palo at 8pm on Wednesday too!

Congratulations! You will enjoy your dinner!

I would also hold and check once you board, I would think it would be easier to add one then to not have a reservation at all.

This thread seems to be getting more and more active day by day. I can not believe we are 75 days away! I can not wait!Does anyone know who our cruise director will be?

 

[Paddle_Nut]

where is that? is that coastal or inland?

It is in the north east part of BC. We are expecting to get down to -17 this week. Dang.

I would be interested in the St. Thomas Henry's tour - which one were you thinking of?

 

[Paddle_Nut]

Well, after much frustration, the only confirmed bookings I have at the moment is Palo on the day we are in St. Maarten for 7pm. I have been trying to book the stingray adventure at cc but the site keeps crashing and I am getting peeved...

I would be interested in doing tours not through dcl on st. maarten/st. thomas, preferrably something that is 1/2 day so as to have some free time to ourselves. Any takers?

 

[adventure_woman]

Thinking of #2. It is the same price as #1, and if we decide to not go shopping it's not a big deal. =) When I checked with him a couple of days ago, he said he had availability and that we could each just book online.

On the 10/30 cruise, we had Brent. I didn't have a chance to ask him how long he'd be on board, but I guess there's a chance it'd be him.

Welcome! We're from Michigan, so we're excited to hopefully have wonderful warm weather too!!

 

[adventure_woman]

Sounds like we'll probably stay at CIS too then! I was leaning toward that one anyway!
