Stinkerbe11 - Can you remove us from the FE list? We'll still be on the cruise, but have had some changes and aren't going to be able to participate. I know it will be lots of fun and we'll look forward to getting into it on out next DCL cruise! Thanks!

For CON5421- We are doing the Whale watching excursion in Cabo through a tour company and Los Calietas (SP?) with DCL in PV. We are still nervous about getting off the ship in Mazatlan. They had a travel advisory awhile back. I don't think it is very safe there. We changed our minds 10 times about what excursions to do! Finally settled on these. It is a lot cheaper to book off site. It looked like all excursions were still available yesterday except for 2.

 

[2littlegirls]

just ordered the girls passports today.....$210 WOW
but at least I will sleep easier knowing we will have them.

 

[simbasmom2]

Yes, passports are very expensive. Just think...now you need to get you money's worth out of them! Sign up for another cruise while onboard! LOL. I think we are going to sign up on the DREAM! I am glad you have your passports, too. I would have worried if I didn't have them (if I were you).

I have all my FE gifts bought...now just need to finish making some of them!

Can't wait!

Yes, and the worst part is that the kids' passports are only good for 5 years.

That was my biggest heartburn...I only get 5 years! No worries, I plan to fill up all the pages!

Fortunately, DD is still good, but it will need to be renewed after this trip. The renewal process always scares me because you need to mail the old one back to the feds. It's a hard concept since you are so protective of it when travelling.

 

[simbasmom2]

50 days!!

Stinkerbe11 -my room number is 6032 (for the FE list)

 

[PrincessDadx2]

Did anyone else get a credit for this cruise? I see that DCL credited me with $58.16 earlier this month Not that I am complaining, but I don't know why Did taxes or port fees go down or something. Anyway a few more drinks for me

Hi, Stinkerbe11. Just wanted to make sure you had seen my previous post. Thanks!!

Did anyone else get a credit for this cruise? I see that DCL credited me with $58.16 earlier this month Not that I am complaining, but I don't know why Did taxes or port fees go down or something. Anyway a few more drinks for me

We got this credit, too! Showed up on our cc stmt. I thought about calling to ask what it was for, but I'm not that brave. Just in case it's a mistake I don't want to call it to anyone's attention!

I officially moved my boys shorts into the storage drawers today. I think it's really too cold now for us to get to wear them. But I did put them in an easy-to-get-to place so I can get them back out next month!

 

[wuv tigger]

I had time to kill today don't ask why ... let's just say our insurance deductibles are being met by the end of this year ...

I also started putting "cruise clothes" into dh's office. I wonder if he noticed the pile I've started.

We gotta figure out what we will be doing for our FE gifts. I have lots of ideas but it's hard narrowing it down.

so, how many days before our cruise ???

 

[rrbar]

Only a few days until Christmas and we are telling our kids that day about the cruise. They have no idea that we would ever go on a cruise so I have to video it. I have some clues that I found on disboards.

We booked a tour for Mazatlan but not through the cruise line and then are booked for Las Caletas in Puerta Vallarta and may just wing it in Cabo. What excursions has anyone else planned on? Has anyone been to Las Caletas before?

We leave for the cruise in just a little over a month!

We are just going to wing it in Puerta Vallarta , then we booked the folklore show and tour in Mazatlan, and then the Dolphin Encounter in Cabo.

 

[simbasmom2]

We are doing Las Calietas, too! We booked a whale watching tour (not through Disney) for Cabo. I really want to go to Stone Island ( I have read awesome things about it on Tripadvisor). Apparently you can walk there and take a 2.00rt water taxi to this beach that has restaurants right on the water. People have given it great reviews and say you can eat and drink all day for cheap. They have beach chairs and nearby rentals for ATVs, banana boats, etc. I really want to do this, but am a little afraid with the travel alerts out.
