is anyone planning on going all out on pirate night?

Our kids did the first time and I went tropical lol! The second time we did matching pirate Mickey shirts and our bandanas. That's our plan again this time. Lots of people do go all out though!

I'm debating on getting shirts or getting actual costumes... Decisions decisions lol

Is anyone going to do the wine tasting on board?

ok it's official! Just booked the excursions for the trip. Hanging on the beach at Jost Van Dykes for one island. Then snorkeling on St.Thomas. Palo's the first night-Brunch at sea-Remy's midweek!
now the wait is real...July needs to get here quick!

Has anyone ever done the Petites Assietes de Remy?

OMG! There are so many that go all out, it is fun to see! It sets the mood for a fun filled night and gets you in the spirit. The first 2 times we didn't do it, the last time, I put something together and bought costumes for my girls. DH wore a pirate t-shirt, took a lot of coercing just for that! LOL! I think anything with a pirate theme, whether it's a costume or just a bandana, makes the experience much more fun.

Just finished checking in DD and FSIL for their stuff as DD is Gold so they get the 105 Day window. I was able to book them on our excursions and Palo at the 120 Day mark so they were done there. This is the first time I had to manage linked reservations and as usual DCL made it a breeze for everything to match up. Have a good weekend all.

That does make things more complicated! Did you happen to notice if any excursions were sold out? Trying to get a feel for if I need to make back up excursion plans!

Other than the ones I posted here did not look at others. When selecting checkin time for the kids all time slots were available so I'm guessing not filling up yet. If you have other specific excursions just list them here and I will check them out for you.

Thanks for being so kind and helpful! I really appreciate it. We are thinking of the champagne catamaran in St. John but worried it will be limited in number they take.

There is only one time listed for this which is 8:15 a.m. But it does not show how much room is left. It makes sense that this excursion only has 1 time slot considering the length of it so so far you look good.

Checked seas days as those are busiest. Sunday morning has 10, 10:30, 11, 12, and 12:30 all open which is normally the busiest day so good sign. Monday has 10, 10:30, 12 and 12:30 and Thursday has 10:30, 11:30,12 and 12:30.

As everyone's booking Windows get closer just post here what excursion you are looking for and I will do my best to get back to you with status. Will be traveling on business next couple of weeks so reply may a little slower.

Is anyone going to do the wine tasting on board?

Considering some tastings, maybe chocolates/liquor, wine, or mixology.......the last 2 private mixology classes with the facebook groups were so much fun!

Woo hoo! I'm hoping t that since this is our first cruise and were last to book I have some pixie dust on my side and get everything we want! Fingers crossed

I think I saw you were going on the Jost Van Dyke Beach day (TT14) and also the St. Thomas Snorkeling. Are you doing the early snorkel or later one? we are signed up for the 7:45. I might be following you around!

Art of Animation is one of our favorite resorts! Which area are you staying in? We opted for the Beach Club before the cruise this year, but AoA is our usual go-to resort because we love the family suites. I love going to WDW before the cruise! We need the week of relaxation to recover.

We will be spending 5 nights at the Boardwalk before the cruise!

We never tried a mixology class and would be interested if one was organized.

We'll be neighbors! Have you stayed there before? Is it worth spending an evening at the Boardwalk?
