LIVE from the 10/15 magic!

[perdidobay]

the 10-15 is the eastern cruise.

wireless internet is availble on deck 9 near the cove cafe, deck 3 4 and 5 near the atruim, and the promenade lounge area. There are 3 pkgs available the only one I remember is 250 minutes for $99, smaller pkgs are available for less $

the movies on the jumbo screen are played at posted times and are listed in the navigator. Video is showing when there is not a movie playing of excursions or activites. Sometimes there is just the DCL logo showing.

I do not know who the conceirge staff consists of, the dining times are not staggered.

ladygyspy covered all the movies, Sky High and Robots are also playing.

Thanks for posting. I love live threads.

Does the exercise area still have a view? Is it larger?

Best wishes for smooth(er) sailing.

And the chairs on the verandah recline now...I don't remember that from last year at all. It's nice. I reclined my all the way back, grabbed an extra pillow and blanket from the closet and napped out there while my husband watched Madagascar last night.

The reclining verandah chairs were in place on the Spetember 10th Western. I figured it was a post-Repo cruise addition. Heavy white plastic type and VERY comfortable!

Thanks for posting. Wishing you smoother seas.

Any info on the new spa suites? Wondering if they are part of a spa service or if you book them seperately like rasul?

 

[ufcabear]

Are there new bedspreads, etc in the staterooms? If so, do they look the same as before?

Chicken Little isn't released until 11/4/05. There are several that the kids want to watch on our 12/10 cruise now. We haven't seen any of the new movies this year so this will be a special treat for them...and a way to make them take a break in the middle of the day.

Good thing because Grand Cayman is in for a tropical storm today. Hope you have smooth sailing.

We had the reclining chair on our June cruise. I also took a pillow and blanket out on the verandah and slept at night. So peaceful!

I just went to the cruise meets thread for this cruise and there are lots of DIS'ers on this sailing. It seems strange that there is so few posts. I wonder if they are still having problems with the internet?

Perhaps many of them are just enjoying their vacation. I know I would be.

They have just gotta get that exercise equipment set up and working before we board on Nov. 12th!

I'd like to know this, too!

We had the reclining verandah chairs on our repo in August. Also, we had the wireless internet. In addition to the above areas available for wireless, I used it 4 nights out on my verandah with the same speed and connection. We were in 7568 and I used it both in port and out at sea. I didn't figure out I could get the signal out there until a week into our cruise, however. We did hear about all the changes when we took the bridge tour, one of the last from the overlook as the space has been filled in to expand the fitness center, as you know. Can't wait to see pictures of the new screen, bed spreads, etc.

Thanks for the live updates.
Is the movie screen out by the goofy pool loud? Just wondering
Hope the seas calm down soon Have a Magical trip

 

[disneysooz]

Anyone on board have time to give us updates? Hope you are having fun, plenty of sunshine and calm seas!

 

[pdarrah]

Anyone on board know anything about the new kid area on deck 2? Is it part of the club/lab setup or a separate play with the family area or something else?

Any info on the changes to Parrot Cay?

With the fitness center still under constructions, where do they have the equipment setup? Can you still use it?

Thanks for sharing! We all love hearing about the changes and can't wait until we can expierence them ourselves!!!

Ok, this is my second try... it may be why so few are posting... connection does not seem to be the best.

PC changes are supposed to be - new sheerer curtains, leaf motif gone and paint change from deep green to a more blue green. I say supposed, becuse I haven't seen it yet myself.

I haven't seen the inside of the kids area on deck 2 but it looks really neat from the outside

Bedspreads look like they are the same as always, don't look like new ones either.

I didn't find the jumbo screen volume level to be too loud.

Exercise equipment is outside on deck 10 in front of the basketball court. Consists of 1 weight machine and rack of free weights...get in line.

Seas are much calmer today and the sun is shining... good thing as I have talked to many people who are seasick and seen lots of people wearing patches and/or patches.

More later...
