January 8, 2011 - 7 Night Western Caribbean Sailing

[Tatiana]

Not to sound too geeky, but I wonder if TRON will be playing on our cruise. I think it comes out in December. That would be so cool if it is.

I really hope so! My Dad and I are really looking forward to watching it in the ships 3D theater!

 

[Tatiana]

to all the new people! Our ship is filling up nicely!

So we cannot book our Palo reservations OR our shore excursions until 10/25. I'm super worried all the cool stuff is going to be booked. Do we still have a good chance of getting Palo dinner reservations in advance or do you think we'll have to be put on the waiting list on the ship?

As of right now Palo resies are as follows:
[Times in red are not available]
Day 1 - 6:30, 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30
Day 2 - 6, 6:30, 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30, 9
Day 3 - 6, 6:30, 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30, 9
Day 4 - 6, 6:30, 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30, 9
Day 5 - 6, 6:30, 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30, 9
Day 6 - 6, 6:30, 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30, 9
Day 7 - 6, 6:30, 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30, 9

This is great from my experience so I honestly do not see a problem with being able to get a ressie on the 25th. When I requested our main dining waitlist [which just came through today! and again that is very early], the cast member commented that this cruise is not filling up the inside staterooms. I pointed out to him that at that time with the kids free the cat 5 cost less than the cat 10 so of course that was happening.

Also, movies usually play at least a couple months on the ship -- some much longer than that. If there isn't another Disney 3D movie that comes out after Tron, that should be the one shown in the WD theater.

lol all the names and ages in that line was my family and our cabin # is 2006 ddpaints is my user name.

[WarrFamily5]

Was wondering if we had an "unofficial name" for our Cruise? In honor of the King's Birthday, an Elvis theme would be appropriate?!?

Your thoughts?

 

[Amy Fran]

We booked this cruise way back when, but I never thought to join a DIS board until yesterday! This will be our very first cruise, my first time leaving the states, and we're celebrating our oldest daughter's college graduation so she & her boyfriend will be cruising with us (leaving the other 2 kids at home). We'll be rushing to get to the boat since we're running the half-marathon at WDW that morning, but I'm super excited!!!

Good luck in the marathon! And welcome to the thread!

 

[cmclaura]

Okay, I promised the updated list of DISers and here you go. Please let me know what I got wrong, as my eyes are starting to cross.

LIST IS NOW ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS THREAD, MESSAGE #1.

Any suggestions for our group name? I did realize we are setting sail on Elvis's birthday but the only reason I know that is one of my BFFs has the same birthday. I'm a Beatles fan myself, lol.

It looks like you have us as a double as WarrFamily and W-Family are the same party. Although I can see how you could think we are two different groups since DW does not know the ages and genders of her children at Cruise Time?!? I'll pay for that one!!

As for a name how about "Cruisin' with the King" and have Stitch in his white Bedazzled jumpsuit for our mascot!!

Thank you Thank you very Much!!!

Yes DS will be going to Ocean Quest, it would be nice to see him doing things other than playing video games there!

You are correct you will pay! FYI, the ages she got were from my signature line, which stated their ages now; I never gave any ages! LOL

Is it time to go yet!!!!!

Okay, I'll fix -- under which name do you wish to be listed and what are the kids ages, as well as all your names and cabin number?

I did think it odd that there were two very similar user names on here but when I do up the list, I just go down the entries to ensure everyone's in there. I also noted the ages seemed similar, but thought it just a coincidence.

I think I am not used to a family where more than one member comes onto these boards! My own DH and DD will not even open up a guidebook, let alone come here. Good for you!

 

[ddpaints]

Lisa, could you please update the FE list. I see quite a few people on the list that Laura made for us that aren't on my FE list so I just want to double check that they aren't participating.
Moonvixn I haven't forgotten you. I actually just went through all the posts last night and hand wrote all of my FE info. When my Dh gets home this weekend I'm going to have him help me set up a spread sheet and once I get all the info typed into the main computer (not my laptop) I will re send it to you. Or if you don't want to wait you could always do what I did and go through all the posts. My question about everyone's info started at pg 12.

Hi, my sister and I won't be participating in the FE since this is our first cruise. Looking forward to meeting everyone though!

The list is growing! We are in room 7052 BTW.
