May 26, 2007 (5/26/07) "First Magical Med Cruise!!" (The M&M's!)

[Scooby3x1y]

Can't I trade you something other than my credit card? Maybe a Palo ressie

Sure, I could try, with my good looks (not) but they'd charge me extra instead of giving it to me free

 

[icunurse_celeste]

I hope everything works out okay....BAHAA

Don't worry, it all comes out in the end....



I am one puppy.

Am wondering about breakfast. From this it sounds like there is an assigned breakfast time. DH is an early riser and wants to eat when he gets up. On other lines we have had buffet for breakfast and it started at 6 AM. Please tell me this is what will happen.

Breakfast is not assigned. You can do whatever you want. I think Goofy's Galley opens either at 6am or 6:30. They have fruit and pastries. The buffet (Topsiders) usually opens at 7 am but may open earlier on days when we are in port earlier. Lumiere's is open for table service, but this usually doesn't happen until later (at least 7am).

The only days you have assigned dining (which you don't have to go to) is the last day and character breakfast day. There are alternatives both of these days for you to get something else. Hope this helps!

Thanks for asking about this! No rush needed. The month of March for me is like you describe above. Hoping April is better.

Sending warm wishes your way for a better day today.

Today was definitely better!

Guess what - I actually had time to contact DCL today. Of course not before my very special contact was GONE FOR THE DAY. Oh well, I'll hear back tomorrow or Friday and will post the answers.

If anyone else has FAQs questions, let me know. I'll keep taking questions until they call back.

[sweetsue]

Yep, Tracy- I am at work. You can email me- my email goes to my cell phone, which is on my hip. I will get back to you right away- unless my patient comes out of surgery, then it will be an hour or so. I never know they are coming until about 10 minutes prior.....



OR

I can call you around 8pm tonight on my way home.....


OR

You can email and I can still call.




I am MAD Iberia cancelled my flight from Madrid to Barcelona and NOW I am going to be stuck in Madrid for 8 hours.....
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Uh oh. Which Madrid to Barcelona flight?????? We're on Iberia through Madrid too (although a day earlier).

Sue

Oh nevermind. I'm losing my mind. We switched to use Delta miles rather than American miles. We're on Alitalia through Madrid, not Iberia through Milan. Geesh!

Sounds like you have a great sense of humor. I am sorry about your flight issue. With 2,000-3,000 people descending upon Barcelona just for this one cruise I would expect most if not all flights are full of cruisers. I hope something opens up for you. (no pun intended)

I FINALLY got my room assigned. I'm #5502, sister is #5500 and dad is #5504.

It figures that I'm at the end of the hall and NOBODY will see all the cute signs I've made.

And.....the front of the boat. Maybe I will need to wear the scolpamine(sp) patches after all. I thought I might just double up on the Meclizine on sea days, but the front of the boat will probably do me in...

Peter,

You didn't put the snow plow away yet, did you???

I got so excited when I saw that you got assigned your cabin #, that I logged in to see ,if ,we had been assigned our cabin. Well, we did get an assignment, it´s a wonderful 2 porthole cabin on deck 1 Wanna trade?

Motion sickness got you down? I am probably the WORST for motion sickness. Hey I even got sick on the first date with the now hubby. I can't even think of the backseat of a car withut getting sick. Especially bad on ship tenders. But after years of expensive pills, patches, bracelets and meds I finally found something that worked and worked WELL with NO sideeffects.

Hylands Motion Sickness tablets. Hylands makes all sorts of fun homeopathic stuff for kids and adults. My son lives on their teething tablets! But honestly they are pretty cheep (Amazon has a place 4 boxes for $16!!) . On our last cruise I forgot I packed them until day 3 and suddenly i felt SOOOO much better. I found that the time i needed them most was at night. But definatly worth the try...they kick in pretty quick so there is no long delay and waiting to feel less queezy!

Good luck!

 

[kpros]

Good morning everyone! Another day closer to cruising!!!!!

[pepperpike]

I would like to let you know that Sandy (treasure Island group) who has no computer would like to come to the Sweets pj Party. Joe

I'm right there with you. I have to drive to not get carsick. I haven't heard of Hylands. Can you buy them at local stores too? Meclizine has really worked for me, but the patch they say takes 24hrs. My problem is that it makes my eyes dialate so I can't see anything close with my contacts on. If I wear my glasses, I can't be out in the sun. Double whammy....Grrrr

C,

Did you book that rate yourself? I was told that interline rate was guaranteed Cat. 8 or better. We're calling today to see if they'll bump us up to a Cat. 7 and get somewhere in the middle of the ship.

If not, I may be O.D'ing on Meclinzine. If I'm that asleep....Please nobody throw me overboard....

Is anyone else going to train into Florence???? (I may need help carry Tracy's cheese and vinegar back) I've been there, don't want a guide. I don't think my kids want to do all the museums, but it is an amazing city.
