May 10, 2008 Ship of Thieves...May 2008 Repo Thread...Part 8

very cute Connie!


I was reading the thread before us and they are still waiting on room assignments. I am not sure a letter would do much good though, I think if you accept gty then that is the risk you take, although with the craziness of booking day I am not sure how everything played out. DU must have had room numbers already given as I have had it from day one...but then who wants a 10 anyway??

V, we went with DU and had no choice about getting GTY. I wouldn't choose it, why would I?

I really don't know why some who were with DU got assigned rooms and some didn't, but I feel miffed about it.

I have that last picture without words saved, but have no idea how to personalise it. Perhaps I will just stick stickers on it!!!

Ohmigosh!!

I realize I am several days behind (please forgive me) ... but ... is it true that we cannot ship anything!?!?!

very cute signs!!

hmm, that is odd...but maybe everyone will get an upgrade!!

I can't believe it's getting so darn close!

Just been on the DCL site and cruise amenities etc. The Romance basket is now back to how it was before with no champagne/cider. Not sure whether to order this or wait to see if the other ones come back.

Ship will be too full for upgrades I think. I'm happy with our category.

I had asked this before and wasn't sure if it has been answered, so here goes again, sorry.

With the new rules about no food in checked bagage when we embark, does that apply to baggage we will be going home with as well?

You can bring packaged things home, if customs has not changed in the last 4 months. You cannot bring any fruits or veggies, nothing that is open.

We are leaving DL on Wednesday 27th May around 1pm, so have decided not to get a park ticket for that morning(about $30 or more extra for that few hours)

Would anyone be interested in a final breakfast at Storytellers that morning? I know park time is precious though.

Angie and Dennis. Are you still around? I know you would probably want to get into the park early though.

We just might be able to make that! We will talk in FL. We should know more about our schedule then.

Both very cute but I like the second one

Did you go to bed yet?

 

[lillygator]

Connie - does Patrick like the pirate party or is it too loud for him? You guys look so cute dressed up. I still have to get pirate costumes!

I really don't know why some who were with DU got assigned rooms and some didn't, but I feel miffed about it.

There were lots of us GTY on our last 2 Dec cruises (they lowered the price of 12GTY and we all jumped on the reduction) and they got eveyone's rooms assigned shortly after 30 days out. You really will have rooms, and you most likely will know within the next 2 or 3 weeks. This is not something I would write a DCL senior exec about. AND some of you may even get those elusive free upgrades!

As for everyone else that asked for a personalized version, here they are. The links underneath are to the larger file which may prove useful for printing.

Thank you Ken, I love it.

I am trying to figure out what else we have left to do....

That's what I thought. Need to restock that duty free alcohol. DH would not be happy if we couldn't pack it as we are flying.

Just a quick post before I head out to work.

Can those of you wanting magnets please PM me? I noticed a few in the thread this morning but I am just worried that I will misplace those requests while I am away. A PM will probably be much easier for me to keep track of. I don't want to miss any.

thnx!

????? ????

[MouseFaninQueue]

Karl, can you send me the blank of this one? I must have missed that post and now I can't seem to find it. Thnx!

I still have loads to do. I ordered the magnetic paper today, and was trying to order our DL park tickets, hence deciding to cut out a day. Been buying toiletries as usually we decant or take half used items, but this time we are away for almost 4 weeks so want enough of our favourite products. I am sure we can get things like toothpaste etc from onboard but other items we are confident with I need to take.

John bought some black shoes yesterday so he is just about done. I'm beginning with my clothing next week.

Could do with castles moving places though as someone pointed out before.
