May 10, 2008 New Ship Of Thieves...May 2008 Repo Thread...Part 3

This is exactly what we did last cruise. We wanted to eat with the kids all the time, so we never did a Palo's. My DD6 loved our server, Charmaine, so much she didn't want to be left in the kids club and miss supper at all! We had to pick her up regardless of what she was doing to go to dinner each night. One night we were late getting there and they had her lined up to go with the other kids, she was quite some worried we had forgotten to get her. But Daddy came in and saved the day!!

You know you can "double dip". Go to regular dining rotation and then do Palo at a later (or earlier if you dine late) time. Just have an appetizer with the kids. You really CAN do it all! Well, almost!

So who here watched Cashmere Mafia and Lipstick Jungle? Did you like one or the other or both? I liked both but after getting used to the fast pace of CM, which I LOVE, I thought LJ was just a little sluggish. I'll watch it again to see if I want to continue, maybe it will pick up some. But I like CM better.....hands down!

Ice cream, beer, disney...

We are going to get along just fine John!!! LOL

 

[Mom323]

oh, sorry

That's okay, just don't let it happen again.

Deb, Lipstick Jungle appealed to me more, but then I like Sex in the City as well, and they are both from the same writer.

Maybe with all the posts to read they won't notice that one!

question:

are any of the ports good for snorkling? (besides CC)

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I'm surprised there aren't more people on chomping at the bit....I guess they're all getting their beauty sleep.....until their alarms go off in about 2 more hours....wow it's going fast. Another hour down and another two to go.

At the time of our first cruise we didn't have time to do it earlier. We dine late so later, well let's just say I don't want to gain THAT much weight!!!! LOL

This time I think we are going to look at getting a brunch or an afternoon meal. We got 15 days, I'm sure in that time we can find at least 1 point in time to go sans les enfants. Or at least I think my wife is thinking so.....

OK - Can't read but just have to post this little note:::::::


P.I.F.


It's my 10 year old b-day party tonight - we have a couple rooms at a local hotel that has an indoor pool. 8 boys, including my 4. We will spend the night. Tomorrow I have a 10:45 flight to MSP to attend my Grandmother's service. I am SOOOOOOOO VERRRRYYYYYYY HAPPPYYYYYY about this. It will make going to the funeral a little easier. I'm sure my Grandmother would think it is a great idea for us to spend 15 nights together. Life goes by like a blink.

Try to post later, but just had to share my news!!

Great news!! Cannot wait to see you onboard!!

With enough tequilla we might!

Speaking of Tequila - we are planning on the Historic towns and Tequila Making tour in PV. Anyone else?

I LOVED sex in the City....but I loved the girls. I guess I have to get to know these girls and there's only three of them so I have to get used to that.

I LOVE the girls on Cashmere Mafia. There's 4 of them and they're all unique and different, like Sex in the City.....just more fast paced. I like it. We'll see what happens with both of them.

 

[ibouncetoo]

Ok these are ones I haven't heard of before.

Are they anything like sweetarts?

These are sweet but tart hard candy. Similar in make up and texture to US Smarties. Another fave of my wife.

BIG SweeTarts fan here!

from my last cruise, you could sort the excursions by the items on your wish list. so that only those items would show up. it's makes it easier to book.

Thanks!


Looks like I've got about 10 pages to catch up.......

So just to clear it all up. Is is West Coat 9:00 and East Coast 12:00 or West Coast 12:00 and East Coast 3:00.

Ok now it's time to buckle down for the home stretch.

No I'm not talking about waiting for the ressies to open.
It's time for the last hockey game of the 12+ hour religious experience that is:

Now it's time for my Canuckleheads to stomp out (ok no laughing please, we can use all the good vibes we can get) the Colorado Avalanche!

Go 'Nucks!!

I agree with you. I love CM. I have been watching it from Day 1.

We are hoping to book this.

 

[lillygator]

Hmmm. If someone were canceling, why bother calling about excursion times?

way to go girl!

It sounds great, but I cant help but think there will be a much older crowd than normal.

On the other cruises, families with kids are less likely to go to Palo, because they want to eat with the kids. (my thinking)

I think there will be more people traveling without the munchkins.

Does this make sense?

WHAT>????? OLDER CROWD? HELLOOOOOOO - there are lots of people who enjoy a night out who have kids and are young, just sayin'.

CC is not good for traditional snorkeling.........! The Mickey yes, but snorkeling, no!
