January 30, 2011 Wonder Mexican Riviera ANYONE OUT THERE????

[ssawka]

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.

Yes, we thought about booking our own excersions, but with the travel advisories, we decided to stick with the DCL tours. I'm even a bit nervous about getting a cab in Puerta Vallarta.

We may not get off the ship in Mazatlan. I think we will wait and see. I feel comfortable with the excursion in Cabo-we can walk to the place where we get on the boat for the whale watching tour. I am excited...39 days till we leave for LA!!!

How many "days worth" of FE gifts is everyone bringing? I was thinking 3. Little girls and boys are easy, but adult gifts are more difficult for me.

The way we have worked it on our past two cruises is one days worth of FE gifts. You get something for each cabin. With 14 cabins for a 7 day cruise you make a schedule and 2 people deliver gifts each day. That way you get two gifts each day but only deliver one time if that makes sense. Usually people deliver a few small gifts or one larger gift. Things like magnets, ornamaents, princess toys, stickers, pirate stuff, etc.

 

[simbasmom2]

Thanks. Will someone organize who delivers on what day?

If you want to make a schedule we can but I was going to suggest that everyone do their own thing. For example, my adult FE gift is one that you will use on the boat and the earlier you get it the better. Thoughts on this anyone?

BTW...can you believe the date is almost here??? The last few months have flown by, wow

I like the "no schedule" idea. Especially if the schedule was going to include "port days". This is a vacation, I'd rather not feel obligated to keep to a schedule.

 

[simbasmom2]

I am good with whatever we decide...no schedules ARE nice on vacations! I am just new to this and I am trying to figure out how all this works. Hopefully our gifts will be spaced out a bit...not all on the same day. We would run out of room and it would be a bummer the rest of the time seeing the FE empty!

I am putting my Christmas decorations away today and getting the suitcases out!

 

[rhinosbiggestfan]

Hi!-hopefully I can add our stateroom numbers still, they are 6608 and 6609

I am a huge tequila fan and found a great place near the ship to do a tasting. My DH can't disembark in Mexico (job related) and I would rather not go alone. Let me know if anyone is interested in joining me
