Well we had lots of discussion here, and DH is not comfortable going with out the kids and they need to work to afford college .. so.. I can go with you all but i will need a roomie..

I can't remember how to add the pirate banner!

It took me a bit to remember how to do it too.

You want to right click on the banner and copy the link and then go to User CP and select signature and then paste it into the signature box, hit preview to make sure it looks right and then hit save...


That is from memory, I'm sure I forgot a crucial step and hopefully someone will add that.

Thanks - to bad its only 7 days - I was spoiled by the PC cruise!

Oh, yeah, so weird when a week long vacation seems too short

We ship ours ahead to the hotel about a week before!

Good idea!
Can we still mail boxes to the ship?
Probably safer to send it to the hotel.

Kev really wants to go again. If we do it, I'm will not leave my Xanax back in the stateroom!!

HA!
I'm thinking I better make sure I have my bonine with me at all times. I forgot it for the Jolly Roger pirate ship and had to skip lunch to make sure I didn't embarrass myself

And Xanax is probably a good idea too, at least for the plane ride

If I chicken out...........I know I can have a drink in hand and watch. I wen't to DCL site and now I can't find the one I was interested in. It was a combo with zipping and snorkling.

Drink in hand is good

Just seems to me like the port stops are so short
Makes me more inclined to stay with DCL excursions so maybe that's why they do it

Hi everyone! Just popping in to say that we are booked. I have (2) Cat. 5C...dont have numbers yet. It will be myself, Mike (DH), Katrina (DD), Leissa (DD) and Charlie (Dsil).

So happy to see so many that I have sailed with before!

Hi Pam Thanks for the add to group.

We are officially onboard! We are in 9672 which is a 6A on the Aft of the ship! It's great to see so many Pirates again!
We are:
me- Carolyn or Caro
DH- Andrew (alanapapa)
DD- Alana (18 at time of sailing)
DD- Kathryn (13 at time of sailing)

Hi Carolyn, Take you for taking such good care of my city.

Gee I already can't Ketchup! Well I don't know if we're going yet or not... Still waiting for them to announce the Magic TA mid-may (hoping!)

This thread seems to be like a roller coaster.........somedays fast others slow. Hope you can make it.

Hi Susan I know Arlene was looking for someone. Looks like you have been having a rough winter. I always think of you & Cheryl when I see the weather on the news.

For Costa Mayo I think it's a good idea to stay with DCL. Why even go if we arn't going to be there long enough to enjoy it ? Probaly is the reason Laurie !

I'm watching the Disney Dream Christening online right now. I know it's not "our" ship, but it's still exciting that it's finally here.

My dang iPad does not have Flash so I can't see the Christening. Guess I will have to watch it on You Tube later.
According to my handy dandy Disney Cruise Line app, I now see I will be on the Dream in 153 days.

Thanks - I tried it but it didn't work - I'm sure it's me!!

I talked to K and Arlene, so maybe this will work..

A wenches suite.?? Really?? Sounds good to me..

Okay, I have better details now so try this...
When you right click on the banner you want, go down and select properties at the bottom of the dropdown menu, a new box will show up
then highlight the Address (Url) and copy that
then go to User CP, select signature from the menu and paste in the URL... then hit preview, then hit save


If this doesn't work, I have an old pm that Crash sent me years ago with his very long instructions on how to post pictures from the internet which is very similar...and a fun read

I rely on my DH and DS to help me with the computer all the time.

Well skatingmom is the one that suggested on facebook that DCL was deliberately making the port stops very short to avoid losing excursion business and once you think about it it makes sense.

So while it would be nice to have longer stops and the freedom to shop for excursions, I'm okay with what DCL has listed too.

You know stress over the things we have control over and accept the things we don't.

OK! Helllo EVERYONE!!!!

We're sailing the Wonder this weekend (to NoWhere) and I believe we will book this cruise on the ship!!!

Well ... to tell ya the truth I was super excited at the prospect of another DCL voyage however I often waxed romantic over how there might never be another voyage as fun as YOU ALL made that one we shared!!!

I have 15 families sailing this weekend on the Wonder with me - so I wll be chatting it up with them and seeing if I can't get a few to sail with us!

This will make our 8th DCL voyage and our 37th among all cruise lines. I imagine it is likely to be the new MOST MEMORABLE one to boot!​

See, he's GUILTY already
