Ok JorDan -- you have a DEAL!!!

I just asked Yoni and he said if Chad is 100% going with him then he will plan on it. If you will go with me to the beach and promise to help keep an eye on the kids (I am not that strong of a swimmer if you don't remember) then ok, let's go for it!!!!!!

We can't book the dive until we get on the ship and we don't have to book the beach thing ahead of time. I'll get all the info on the Sheraton/Wyndham to see what is the best deal for us and it sounds like a DATE!!!!

Woo Hoo!!!!!!

Now -- isn't it amazing how things can change so fast? Thank God for all of you guys. Without you, this trip would be nowhere near as exciting!!!!

DB's GF's dad passed away this morning (completely unexpectedly). No info yet on what is going to happen. Her father lives in another state and may need to be moved to FL, his home state for the funeral. DB & his GF are discussing if they are going to come on the cruise or not.

will keep everyone posted for the FE

I'm so sorry to hear that!! I hope they are ok and things work out. Bummer


Also, will there be an updated FE list sent out??? I've seen some rooms changed and am getting confused. Don't want to leave my peeps out!

Mati,
I think that I read before that you guys and a few others from the board were doing the stingray excursion in Grand Cayman. Was that through Moby Dick tours or another operator? We planned a big day in Cozumel so since that's not going to happen I think we may do the stingray excursion.

we are doing it through native ways - the Rays. Reef and Rum Point (beach) tour.

I am so torn about Nassau.....researching it to death right now.

Sounds great!! Yes he really really wants to dive and doesn't want to go alone (not the most advanced diver). He is so excited now that he can go with someone. We didn't want to risk the chance with me since I'm just BARELY preggers, better safe than sorry. Since this is our last BIG vacation, I want him to be able to enjoy it and dive...who knows when we can do this again!
I'm a pretty good swimmer...I'm used to saving kids from falling on the ICE so hopefully I'll be good in the water! I promise to help watch the kiddos.
I'm up for whatever to do in Nassau...maybe you can help me find some jewelry there for my mom.

We made it to Erie Pennsylvania!!!

Were staying at a days inn! lol

But were dead! Hope you all had a good day! And safe travels to all!!!

Andy & Ashley -- you guys left while I was at work.
I felt like a Momma who couldn't wish her kids goodbye .

Glad to hear you are in Erie. I hope you guys have a safe (and fun) trip. I am glad you left early and can take your time. Keep us posted on your progress and we will see you soon!!!!!

Hi everyone. Well I am decompressing. I had my purse stollen Sunday at church, no less. Had toooo much money in it, car keys, house keys, cc cards, dl, glasses, sun glasses, etc. After filing the police report, we came home and changed the locks on the doors. We have 6 outside doors! Four hours later, got a call it was found in the ladies restroom garbage. Of course the money was gone. I have beat my self up, should of, could of, etc. Now to move on. My joy will NOT be robbed! i have a great cruise to get ready for!

So is anyone interested in doing the Cognac or whiskey tastings?

I have read about Cognac tastings. My DH and SIL will be there, when ever it may be.

Mati,

We have any early stingray excursion through Captain Marvins. An early one.

I was wondering if you can go to Atlantis and just walk around. I have a feeling our big boys may want to check out the casino. Anyone know what the deal is with that?

Also, I was trying to find the info, but where is are 1st official meet. I know it's at 3pm, but where?

We have been to Atlantis 4 times. A real fun place. You can get a taxi, $5 pp one way. There will be plenty out side the wharf at Nassau. You can walk the public areas at no charge, casino being one of them. Food is pricey. When you are ready to return, there will be plenty of taxis waiting to take you back.

I'd be more than happy to e-mail out an updated FE list. Since I'm planning on printing out our mini-navs tomorrow once I get all the changes together I will e-mail the FE portion out tomorrow night!!!

Oh dear, at church! Who would have thought. What's your SIL's name and I'll stick it on the list.

Tiffany -- Sabrina & I are doing the stingray & island tour excursion via DCL. I had the Moby Dick one booked for the four of us but cancelled. Let me tell you -- they are FIRST class. No problems with any questions or cancelling so late. The ONLY reason we are not going with them is because both me and Yoni will be off the ship and Kai is staying on board. I want to be guaranteed we will get back in time and the only way to do that is via a DCL excursion.

Both Kathy & JorDan are doing the same Stingray excursion so that definitely helped sway my decision . We would love to have you guys join us!!!!

Tiffany ~ Please join us in Grand Cayman . The more DISers the better! ~Kathy

Hey Mati ~ I'm sure you will, but please post the Sheraton/Wyndham info. Brian and I are tossing around what to do in Nassau. Thanks ~ Kathy

Belinda ~ Do you know when you will find out if the day will change? Please keep us posted. I still would love to spy from Topsiders . ~ Kathy

 

[dznyacct]

Sad to say, I think I knew more than the CM I had. She had to put me on hold 3 times to find the answer (or pseudo answer) to my questions. As Cinda posted, formal night is still Monday, semi-formal is now Wednesday and pirate night is now Tuesday. Palo Brunch or Tea reservations for Thursday will automatically be moved to the same time on Wednesday. I asked if the on-board activities scheduled for our Thursday sea day would be ~ the same on Wednesday. Her response, "I guess they might". That was pretty definite . Of course, I JUST printed off my daily itinerary. Now I need to make my revisions and print it again. I have to agree with Mati, if it weren't for all of you, I think I would be stressing . ~ Kathy

Kathy- I have no idea at the moment... and DCL seems to be pretty clueless right now. I would still love for all of you to still watch from above. What I'm going to do is .....we have some DCL wedding postcards that I am going to fill out with the day and time on it. Kathy, I will put one in your FE on Saturday night so you can make plans if you still want to be my little birdy

Belinda ~ I hope they let you know soon. I am a HUGE planner and to have a change like that thrown in would definitely throw me for a loop.That would be WONDERFUL if you could leave me a wedding postcard . I would love to be your birdy (tweet tweet !!). ~ Kathy

safe travels everyone....we aren't heading over until Friday afternoon. Has anyone decided where they are dining Friday night? I think we are going to Rusty's but if a group was going somewhere else would love to meet up.
