Lucky duck! Sure wish ours would come....preferably with cabin assignments on them!!

Got our docs today - and realized that my cabin number on the roll call was wrong - I didn't get moved..I just can't type!

I am in cabin 6134.

I just returned from the Wonder 3/25 departure. Everyone please be very aware if you plan to make purchases in Cabo San Lucas.
Nick does a wonderful job as a Shopper's Guide. He does not work for Disney and actually is paid a fee by the businesses for Disney shoppers.
The Port Shopper's Buyers Guarantee has many 'holes' when you actually need to use it.
Above all else, please beware of Royal Jewelers -- no matter how much Nick professes them to be the best location for shopping.
To date, they have been extremely uncooperative in processing a return of jewelery.....I know, who would be jewelery on a cruise anyway??? silly me.
If you happen to stop in, let Nick and Dinesh know there are more than one dissatisfied customer out there!
Thank you, Sandi

Booked my Execucar today from the HoJo to San Pedro for Monday 14 May (almost had a heart attack when the lady taking my booking repeated back "Monday 16 April...." "no, no, no...." I said "14 May")

Every step we take in the planning process now is very exciting as we are that much closer to cruising!

Got my cruise documents in the mail Saturday! Yay!! Was hoping for a room upgrade, but no such luck. Doesn't matter really, was just a whistful hope.

Does anyone know if there us a formal night planned for this cruise?

There should be. In fact there better be - I bought a dress!

 

[lozzypop]

Formal night should be Tuesday May 15 - our first day at sea. That seems right to me based on the same itinerary last year.

I sure hope the 15th stays formal night - DD turns 10 that day and is soooo looking forward to everyone dressing up.

Hello all,

We are doing SF on our own and found a couple freebies that happen to land on our day in port!

Ghirardelli Square has a free history tour on Wednesday mornings at 9:30am - http://www.ghirardellisq.com/visitor-info/tours/tours

The Exploratorium has free admission on the first Wednesday of every month - http://www.exploratorium.edu/visit/hours_admissions.php

Was anyone still trying to go to the Giants game? bbangel? It looks like its about a 30 min walk from the port. We might want to just split a cab with someone for the game.

We decided to save ourselves the stress and see a game when we are in the city for more time. We had more concerns around leaving and getting back to the ship than getting there. So hard to do it all!

I dont blame you. I think were going to play it by ear but if we go we will have enough time to walk down to the game and then just cab it back if time is cutting short. Dont want to miss the MDR rotation that night so we will see.
