July 28, 2007 - "Rome-ancing the Mouse Cruisers" -11 days! Part 3

[Andrew DEREK UK]

HI Everyone!!!
I got my cabin number, I am 7546- its right in front of the elevator- do you think it will be noisy??? Jimmy is concerned about the location- should I call DCL to see if I can change it?? I did notice the i bedroom suites and the Roy and Walt suites are also in front of /next to the elevator???????

Its on the midship stairs starboard side, whilst it wil get some traffic there, the only reason for people to be there is the deck 7 staerooms there isnt anything else on that level, easy to get up and down above atrium and below the big staerooms as mentioned, I think you will be ok,

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

We just got our cabin assignment too!!!
We're in 6504 way up front, starboard, category 11 room. Its called an inside stateroom but is on the outside. Hope the motion doesn't get us. Sounds like its a quiet room, has a funny porthole looking thing on it. Not sure what that is. Sounds like its very accessible to Oceaneer (not that we have kids) and shows. I need to find out what cabin my sister got.

Congrats they seem to be working through it now! Tickets soon!

DW just checked our reservation online and we have a stateroom # instead of just Cat 6 GTY. We are in 5648.
It's on deck 5 in the stern where the curve starts on the starboard side. Looks like possibly a little bigger balcony as a result. Anybody ever stayed there?

Congrats! We love deck 5. We're in 5628 plus we have 3 Cat 11 staterooms in that area.

So wait, were you a category 12 GTY too? and you got a cat 5 room? I'll trade if you don't want it.
My room is at the end of a hall, very quiet.

Good point

Andrew, I can't find the list of excursions and who was going on what excursion. Am I blind or was it removed?

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

Ok, so what I gathered from the last 10 pages:
* do your laundry at 3am
* don't pack laundry soap, just bring the dryer sheets
* lots of talk on clothes and excursions
* call your credit card company and be prepared with all the details and city names

Did I miss anything?
Now, not sure how I'm going to catch up with what I missed during the weekend.

Yes ANDREW is more sexy than Jon Bon Jovi, about page 5 of 10!

 

[kyla]

Two lanyards left!

SCROLL down to post 12 on page one, I hit diss limits on text and pictures so had to move it down. Will be editing it again shortly.
