Did everyone get their cruise docs yet? I'm getting nervous!

Do they come regular mail or UPS?


On our last DCL cruise we didn't get our docs until just 14 days before the cruise. For our first three DCL cruises, our docs have always been delivered by UPS, but I do know that others have received their docs (from their TA) through the regular mail. You can call DCL and see if your docs have been sent out, if they were sent by UPS you should be able to get a tracking number and find out when they are scheduled for delivery.
 
Still haven't received out docs yet :sad2: I was hoping over the weekend so we could enjoy Konch Koolers nothin' :sad2:

I am not going to call DCL because I want to be surprised when they finally arrive.

Taking out the blender tonight to get ready for the KOOLER party :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2


PACKING! :cheer2: I got all of MY things out last night, tried everything on, and with the exception of ironing some shorts, i am ready to pack myself - I have never packed myself first, I am always the last one to get my stuff in the suitcase - :rolleyes1 not this trip
 
No cruise docs yet for us either.. I think ours came USPS last time, it depends on your TA how they send them.
 
We received our docs for 1 cabin on Friday and the other cabin today by UPS:cool1:

On another topic....we all have outfits for Formal night, but what about the other nights for dinner? I was wondering what my 2 DS's (8 & 6)should wear. This is our first cruise. Thanks.

Drats...I was hoping today would be the day I got our docs...but no such luck!

I've started gathering all our stuff, and I swear it looks like we're going to have six suitcases for the three of us...is that just crazy!!!!!!!!!! But by the time you figure in a booster seat, beach towels, snorkel gear, and of course, travel bar, it starts to add up!
 
Count us in for Grills on Friday. There are 6 of us. DH and DW, Garry and Margaret, DD 16 Adrienne, DD 5 Megan, DS 8 Mike and DS 6 Matt. Really looking forward to meeting everyone!

How cruel! The UPS truck just pulled up to my neighbor's house....delivered a package....then drove the two houses down to my place...and delivered VITAMINS! Ugh! Not what I had in mind.

I have a DS, 4, and I plan on shorts and nice shirts most days. He has long pants for the formal and semi-formal nights.

Thanks for the heads up on what to wear. The travel bar sounds like fun! Are you guys on deck 2 by any chance?

Nope. You'll need to head up to deck 6 for a manhattan or a martini! I think we're in 6094, but I'll have to check.

Hi everyone,

Jodifla, do we need to pack beach towels? I thought they were supplied.
LOL :lmao: about your travel bar!! DH doesn't drink (that's why I married him, to always have a designated driver :rotfl2: )

Brown still hasn't stopped by here yet :sad1: :( :sad:

I'm keeping a list of those who've said they're going to Grills. Let me know so's I can make a huge reservation!!

Manhattan's are my fave :Pinkbounc Are you going to Grills on Friday?


Then we'll have to fix you one! DH makes great manhattans. We won't be at Grills, though. We're spending the night at OKW the evening before.....

You know, I actually think they give you beach towels, even for excursions....but we're probably going to do our own excursions, since DS is only 4, and I'm not sure they'll give us beach towels for those. Guess I should ask on the cruise board! I also always like having my own...really stands out among the sea of white.

If you serving Grey Goose martini's I will have to drag myself all the way down the hallway & across the ship to have a few... :woohoo: Or you could just bring them to deck 9, poolside.. I will tip..... :thumbsup2
 
We usually pack a few of our own beach towels as well, just because they are bigger than the towels the ship provides.

Congrats to those who received their docs today, and best of luck for tomorrow for those still waiting!!! :goodvibes
 
Kathleen, hope you have better luck in making the reservation than I did 2 years ago... They wouldn't take one :-( We are about 90% sure we will be at Grills...

We do the same as V-Man, pack a few of our own. You can get towels even if your not going on a DCL sponsored excursion, either when you get off the ship or just get them from poolside. They have them stored in cabinets next to the pools for anyone to grab them.

My boys (husband included) are going to be wearing Polo style shirts and slacks (khaki and black) on casual nights. They are wearing button down shirts, ties and sports coats with khakis on semi- formal night and tuxes on formal night. I got a good deal on the tuxes on Ebay (both were cheaper than one sports coat) and thought they'd make great pictures. I'm wearing capris and blouses on casual nights and dresses on formal and semi- formal nights.

I plan on buying some DCL and Castaway Cay beach towels on our cruise. I loved taking my Castaway Cay beach blanket to the pool all summer last year and reminiscing. I bought one towel from each of the parks on our trip to WDW in January and wanted a few from DCL to add to our collection.

The weather was awful here all weekend. Soccer and baseball games were washed out, but they did opening day pictures indoors. It was chilly this morning but the sun finally came out in the afternoon. Our grass grew several inches with all the rain so I spent 2 hours cutting it this evening.

I still have not gotten around to doing our door signs. I did manage to buy the boys their brown dress shoes so they are totally set for the cruise. All we need are some tapes for our video camera and water proof cameras.

My mom had her doctor phone in a prescription for the patch and the pharmacist called saying they are no longer making them and to try sea bands????? I have one patch left over from last year that hasn't expired and our pharmacy has a set in stock so I will be getting those ASAP. Anyone else heard of this?

My parents and FIL have yet to get their documents. We got ours UPS.

I'll be going into our ds8's school tomorrow and getting his vacation excuse form. I have to have it in 14 days prior to our trip and we leave the 10th. Our ds5 will be finishing his last day of pre-school on the 8th since they "graduate" while we are on vacation.

Cruising is certainly addictive, especially Disney. I really hope my FIL enjoys it since it will be his first cruise ever. My parents have been on other cruises including a 2 week Transatlantic, one to Nova Scotia and one to Bermuda and preferred the 4 day Wonder we went on last year over all of them.
I think we are going to be booking on board for December 2007.

Anyone else booking onboard and if so for when?
 
We will most likely be booking a cruise for the Spring of 2008, but we might have to set a dummy date for 2007 then tranfer that ressie to 2008 when those dates become available.
