Magic Cruise to St. Croix starts tomorrow

[ESN]

Thank you so much for the info --

I am thrilled to hear about the photpass -- The biggest gripe I had with DCL (beside the cost!) was Shutters. This will be a much needed improvement!

Did you talk to anyone who did the Wave Jeep tour in St Croix? We are booked on this and are wondering if it is worth keeping or not.

How about the Buck Island trip- hear anything about this?

Sounds like you all had a good trip - thanks for the info about St. Croix. If you post pictures somewhere, we'd love to look.

Hi:

Can you share what the dining rotation was for your trip? Which night was formal/pirate/ etc?

Thanks!

Thanks for the trip report......hey the bar tender in Diversions wouldn't have happened to be Nyoman (sp?)? He has been on our last 5 sailings and definately makes the best mojitos ANYWHERE

What cruise staff was on the ship? just wondering if you know

SIx of us were on the trip and had a great time. My daughter and her friends rented a jeep and had a marevlous time on ST Croix. I would look into doing that insterad of the jeep tour. People we talked to did not enjoy the jeep tour that much. They paid only about $50 for the jeep.

Thanks --

Do you know if they booked jeep ahead of time, or when they arrived?

If pre-booked -- any idea who they booked with ?

They rented from Avis on St Croix. They drove most of the island, went to the rain forest, Cristianstaad, and ended up at Cane Bay beach.
All four of them raved about what a great time they had.

Thank you so much -- we may end up doing this!

Do you recall what times you arrived/departed St Croix?

Was it dock or tender?

 

[lilofan]

7:30 Arrival and 5:30 back on the ship--although one family cut it really close. They were running up the pier as the gangways were being pulled up. We were the only cruise ship at St. Croix--a distinct plus--and I think all the cruises to St. Croix will be, so there is no tendering.

 

[ESN]

Awesome - thanks for the info - hope you had a great trip, and that your return to reality was not too harsh.
