No this one is gaRry's fault.

I just noticed that. What a coincidence.....there's another "it's all Gary's fault".

Just moving over from the other closed thread!

Hi!

It'll be me (Sarah) and my mum Maureen.
We're from England.
We don't want to do the FE, thank you, as we're doing this cruise B2B with the WBTA and will already have too much stuff with us

I'm so excited for the ports! I went to Barbados with DCL in Dec 2010 - it's a wonderful place! I did the Harrison's Cave excursion. We may do that again if Mum would like to go. Sorry can't remember what else they offered - I think there was snorkelling in a bat cave, which I booked then didn't go on, because I was unwell by the afternoon.

Also, I just looked at the DCL website and they have added the moving maps to the cruise itinerary pages - it now shows St Kitts as the first port instead of the last one - can anyone else see that too?

Yep...totally different gaRry.......NOT to be confused with the other one...please!!!

 

[justmestace]

Should we let Stacey be in charge of bringing the creamer?!?

I'll be close to the buffet and the drink station...no problem with the creamer.


Yeah, you guys "outted" me!! I wasn't sure I was going to add my name to the list.
I think some people might be happy to see me, others...not so much.


Just myself, Stacey and husband Jay. Two new ports for me, San Juan and Grenada....all new ports for Jay. (He doesn't get out much)

I'm so happy for a southern carribean route. I do wish there was more sea days but the 7 week fits into our work schedules well so I'll take it.

Welcome!

I am pretty excited about the southern caribbean route too. I do wish there was another sea day (my favorite) in there but I am excited about the islands we will be visiting.

 

[acomasdiaz]

We are booked as well. It will be just my wife and me this time, but we are really looking forward to all of the ports!

Hi! I booked on Tuesday...very excited for the Southern Caribbean!
It will be me and DH! We are going to be stopping at PR on the Fantasy on a Cruise this March so I will get a quick preview

Renea and Jim

I booked this cruise yesterday!

It will be me, Ileana & DD12 Tatiyana. She'll be missing a few days of school but I'm ok with it since we never do that. This will be our 6th DCL cruise. Can't wait!

Side note to JillJill - we seem to have very similar cruise plans. We were on the Fantasy with you 1/26 but didn't get a chance to meet you. We were originally planned to be on the West Coast Repo/Alaska B2B with you but decided to switch to the WBPC just before it. I know you had originally been booked on that one.

Welcome everyone!

Booked this on February 14th. It will be my husband's first cruise, and it will be my second. My first cruise was a three-night cruise in 1989 (I think) on the Disney-licensed Big Red Boat. I hated it.

This itinerary, though, gives us a chance to see several of the southern Caribbean islands that we have wanted to see, but without the prolonged disappointment of committing to spend a week on a single island--again.

We are also going with friends who are Platinum Castaway Club members, so no matter what, we'll have a great time hanging out with them.

Hi there!!!

Hi, Stacey and Hi, Christopher (KSDisneyDad) - there are a few other REPO cruisers that chimed in on the old thread, but haven't shown up here yet as well.

Hi, JoanneL from our Alaska cruise

It's going to be a fun cruise. Looking forward to a few days in San Juan prior as well. We're leaving the kids at home

Um....you just outted yourself. I could have been talking about a different Stacey.

 

[JOANNEL]

Never saw the other thread that you posted on. I've closed that thread now since the OP is not on that sailing and I've left the link to this thread on that thread.

Ok thanks, so I am not crazy???

 

[JOANNEL]

Hi Stacey!! Happy to see you again. We will have to share our sons in the military stories!!!! Mine just got orders for Korea!!

 

[acomasdiaz]

I missed that other thread too?! Hopefuly, everyone finds their way over...

 

[justmestace]

Um....you just outted yourself. I could have been talking about a different Stacey.

Oh please......you KNOW I am the ONLY Stacey!!
For those who don't know me, yes, I'm kidding.

Hi Stacey!! Happy to see you again. We will have to share our sons in the military stories!!!! Mine just got orders for Korea!!

Another good friend of mine (a Disney cruiser) has a son already stationed in Korea, in the Air Force.

Jared (my son) is in the Army National Guard, so at the end of August, when he's done with his career training, he'll come back to AZ, but I'm not sure if he'll stay here. He could end up at home, working during the week and doing only weekend Guard duty, or he could be stationed at the base here, or he could be deployed somewhere, or maybe Border Patrol. We won't know for a while.
