May 10, 2008 New Ship Of Thieves...May 2008 Repo Thread...Part 4

[nskjerven]

Has anybody doing the cliff divers on their own heard back from LaPerla? If not can you please pm me with the # in your group and I am going to call them about ressies. $15 per adult 2 drinks included, kids whatever the cost of a drink is.

I have not heard back from my email.

We are 4 people. I will also pm you. thanks for dealing with this pied piper

The only time you need to worry about the kids club is if you have one that needs to go to Flounders. The other ages you just register. We are doing a lot of the beach getaways. We also have a 5 year old and she could not do a lot of the excursions.

Yeah I noticed that too. We are pretty mellow people so beach stuff would be great. I was thinking of a resort in one of the Mexican ports. Which ones are you doing?

I have not heard back from La Perla and also, the ACA Port Dude assured me we would not make the first show due to the time we port....I booked an excursion as a backup to see the divers, it also goes to the fort etc, but I would like to do it cheaper if possible.

 

[lillygator]

I am still so darn exhausted. I can barely keep my eyes open. I still need some pixie dust and good thoughts this way. I have several issues that I am needing luck with.

Also, I've been bringing along a little nightlight that I plug in at night for those late at night trips to the bathroom. I had enough after DH stubbed his toe in the middle of the night and blamed me for it. OH those battery operated tap lights work too but sometimes they are glaringly bright after being pitch black.

Anyone else with this trouble?

I have a tap light, I use it kind of like a flashlight, point it at the floor. I am worried about the toes in the night, we normally stay in a handicap room and they don't have the step up for the bathroom.

John/Amy, are you ready for some Canadian blue language?

Is there a place for checking in on excursion threads? I was wondering who else will be on our zip line???

Well guys, out of time to catch up on posts....thanks again.

You know that the DIS use to have different user profiles, with the blog section, and a Discussion section. We used that to keep stuff orgranized for my october cruise, it was great. We had threads for excursions, and palo and a kids journal that Kimmielee did, it was easy, I could update at work and not just at home. DIS bring back the super user profiles.

He told me that if we are on their time which many ships are then we have time to make it. I'm going to try and see what DCL says about the time.

Hi Jill - I had one the last time I was on board. I told the CM that I can't handle smells (cause migraines) and she was able to adapt to me. Didn't feel oily.

same with me for all massages. They adjust for what you need.

Remember you'd have to pack it in your checked luggage. You can't take it as carry-on.

Aye, If I buy M&C so I carry on the flight then stay at Raddison hotel then I put it in my our luggages.

For what it is worth from DCL - the ship will be in port(ACA) at 11am with guests allowed off at 12pm. The time on the ship will be the same as the local time. You must be back onboard by 9:30pm.

I PM'd somebody about this but I've sent so many PMs over the last few days that I've lost track! So I figured I'd post my questions here instead. Maybe I'm not the only confused newbie!

I read through the article on fish extenders and it really sounds like fun, but I'm still a little confused! Do we get put in a group and just put gifts in those people's extenders, or do the groups take turns putting gifts in everyone's, or what? How do people know how many gifts to bring along? Do you just look for doors with extenders, or are you given a list?

We are having sign up days with groups (one person can be a group or a few)


And how do you actually sign up?

Calmom, pm her

And what's the difference between Fish Mail and the Secret Mickeys?

I think with fish we will know who is doing what day, secret mickeys do you ever fess up ?

Could you give me a really basic explanation (for someone who's never heard of it before? (I don't need the instructions on how to make one, just how to use them!)

you need to look at the webpage, pm PJ for entrance password

I'm really feeling "simple" here, but I figure asking is the best way to find out!

Thanks so much!

I see Mary also answered but just in case you need another comment, I'll post mine too.

Oh I forgot- Orginally I said each age group would have a different scanvanger hunt but have decided to do just one. It will be geared toward everyone. I hope thats ok.

That sounds good as I think we will do it as a family together.

V, what is going on here. Why are you tired in the middle of the day....
are you????? are you???? I'm going to have to pm and pester you soon ya know

If you are

Can't wait for you to share this news!!!!

Gydell,

My tour is of the town then over to the divers, we meet on the ship at 12:30, so I have a feeling that it will be a 2 or 3pm show for cruise ship tours. I don't know if they restrict access at that time, but it would not be to the divers benefit to do that.

"Also, I've been bringing along a little nightlight that I plug in at night for those late at night trips to the bathroom. We usually stay in an inside cabin and behind those curtains it gets pitch black especially since DH has a nasty habit of putting a towel under the doorstop so ABSOLUTELY no light gets in. I had enough after DH stubbed his toe in the middle of the night and blamed me for it. OH those battery operated tap lights work too but sometimes they are glaringly bright after being pitch black. "

Laura - I already bought myself a night lite!

We're in an inside cabin, and have done an inside cabin before.

What we like to do is turn the TV to the bridge cam. It gives off a bit of light but not enough to be a bother, and also, if you wake up, you can see whether it's day or night outside.

That's worked out excellent for us. Our "video" porthole!

Thanks, that's my thought too. When I get home I will call LaPerla and see what they say. They have to know when the show is.
