Magic In Paradise: 10/8-10/15 2011 All cruisers check in here

[Octoberbride03]

We are in the same boat. We can't decide on the excursions either. We can't decide if we would stay on the beach in St. Thomas or go to St. John. DH and DS are only interested in being in the ocean.

In St. Maarten, we would like to see both sides of the island but are not interested in doing any shopping. We want to hang on the beach and DS really wants to see the planes coming overhead in Maho Beach.

Any of you veterans have any suggestions?

Join us on St. Maarten and book Bernard's. We are hitting both sides of the island and watching the planes. There is beach time and shopping time, but he seems flexible on both from what I've read. Also drinks are complimentary.

Glad most of you got what you wanted! We can't wait to 'check in' on the 25th! A-n-d glad we had decided NO on the Cabana... since there are none left. We just couldn't decide on that one, dh saying we'll be biking, maybe paddle boats, snorkeling...we figured we'd be out of it more than in it...Plus of course the cost, when we've got 7 of us and excursions...

Just hope the one excursion we want is still available in St Martin. Having trouble coming up with something for St Thomas. Don't suppose any of you have a fav thing for St Thomas?

Enjoy your Sunday!

We are looking for St. Thomas suggestions too. It doesn't look like the skyway will fill the whole day. Please share away

That sounds great. I just checked their website and sent them a note. We might be with you guys. It sounds great. See both sides of the island, a little beach time and seeing the planes.

I need the last names of everybody participating in the FE exchange. I have some names, but not others and I didn't list the ones i do have on the spreadsheet. So if everyone could send me last name info ASAP it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

And just a reminder that final signups for those waffling is 7/26th

I believe we are missing a stateroom number from someone as well. At least we were the last time I checked.

As far as I know, the missing stateroom is on GTY status. When its assigned I'll get a message. Be a few more weeks probably.

Hey there. How do we handle those that get stateroom changes last minute? The last cruise we had, one of the families had a last minute stateroom change when they got on the cruise. They had to go around the ship and leave notes for everyone on the FEs to let them know their stateroom changed.
I looking forward to being on the cruise. Less than 3 months before we are in Disney!!!

We had a last minute cabin upgrade once on a Carnival cruise, and by last minute I mean we didn't know until we got there and were checking in. I guess the only thing you can do is deliver your things right away with a note saying you have a new cabin number.

Any other ideas??

 

[Lauralooneyfordisney]

Wow, I am so out of the loop after being off here for a week.. I have been swamped at work so no time for non-work stuff and I couldn't get on at home either. I so wanted to be #2000 too.
I worked some on my FE gifts. Can I get clarification on whether the infant is boy or girl? I forgot who it was right now.
I am so jealous that everyone is getting to book stuff already. I have to wait until the 25th but you can bet I will checking in then. I want to do the Maagens Bay tour so will see what is available. Also the Palo brunch but I am sure I will have to do that on the ship.
I bought the Pirate/Swan gifts and they aren't much but I would like to get them so I figure they will do.
OMG! Only 13 weeks to go!!!

Yes, I was wondering that too. For those of us doing the DISmeet at 3:00 then we can let everyone know. For those who can't come then maybe the people who switch cabins can relay the message to someone who will be at the DISMeet to let us know?

I must have missed the DisMeet message! Where at 3???

I'm looking at the FE chart. The 9 month old is a girl.

Alright, I gotta get off my but here and go do some house work.

For the doggie owners here: What do y'all feed em? Looking for a new food for Onslow that won't break the bank. His current is Nutro Max, but I think he's needing a change.

We give our labs Purina One dog food. The very first ingredient is chicken instead of corn which so many others are. They love it. We get a 44 lb bag at Sams for only $36. It is cheaper than anywhere else. They also get pedigree canned food and plenty of dog treats. They are so spoiled but they are our babies. They are only 3 years old so they run a lot and need energy.

Thanks for the info! I saw the cutest thing for a little girl so I guess I will get it if it's still there.
I believe we have only decided on a time right now but not the place? Anyone have ideas of where to meet?

I'm wondering if anyone is looking for something to do in St. Thomas? Check out rumbabacharters(dot)com. We (I) really want to do their day cruise, but need a few more people to fill the boat.



Anyone interested?


I did get Palo for Thursday night. I'm a little apprehensive about dining alone, but I think it'll be fine.

Oh...so sorry Pooh lover...I did check the website..max 6 passengers. We're 7, so out of the picture. Do hope you can find someone!

And don't worry about dining alone...there will be tons of friendly people I bet!

Can't wait to book something, just so I can say I did...
