May 5th Western - Long Version w/pics!

[Stinasmom]

Dang! You took pictures of everything! But it really helped tell the story.
Anyone wondering what it could be like on DCL will get a great idea from this TR! Great Job!

Your snacking after dinner reminds me of one more reason I prefer late seating... too full to snack late! Sure looked good, though.

Off to find your TR on WDW...
Did you scrap all this yet? I am still working on DL/DCA...
Thanks for such a great TR on DCL... I will show DH since we are doing the same Western...

Actually I never got to the WDW portion of the trip yet and being as I start working tomorrow, it may never get done. Also the scrapping....haven't started it yet! And yes....I have many more pictures to chose from when I do start it! You are going to have so much fun when you go!

Yeah, a TR on WDW with all there is to see and do would be a huge undertaking...especially if it was to be of the quality of your DCL one!
Like I should talk... I never posted TRs for either of our DCL trips let alone the DL/DCA and WDW trips from the last 2 years!
Good luck with that new job tomorrow!

can you tell me about the romance basket. how much was it? what were the robes like? do you feel it was worth it?
i've thought about ordering something so it would be good to know especially about the robes.
thanks

The Romance basket was $75 and had two robes one size fits all. I wore it big on the ship, but it shrunk to a nice size when I got home. Much softer after it has been washed too! Nice quality and still plenty big after shrinking a bit. It also came in a metal 2" high basket that I brought home and put in the bathroom with soaps and things in it, an 8x10 DCL silver frame, and a box of Ghiradelli chocolates. I was happy with it!

What beach were you at on Cozumel? The pictures look so private and peaceful! I would love details of price, quality of food, and such about this beach, if you don't mind. Also, how far was it from the port?

Your pics were so fun to browse. My kids loved the Flying Dutchman photos best!

thank you PPPPiglet for sharing. Watched the Youtube videos and they look great, I don't think that I can wait the 6 months before we go.

ps...don't be afraid of circle cutters, they are great once you get used to them.

I don't know the name of the beach. I don't remember any signs, but it was private because only people on the jeep excursion were there. The buffet was included in the price of the excursion. It was beans, rice, soft tacos with chicken or beef, lots of quacamole, chips, soda, and salsas. (very good) It was past Punta Sur...that was one of our stops also, so maybe an hour from port. The cost of the excursion was around $85 or so. We really loved it.

Our next DCL won't be for 5 years until the new ships come out, so 6 months sounds good! The planning is so fun though!

.....yep....still don't use circle cutters!

Great trip report! Thanks for sharing. It's helped me understand about more about my upcoming cruise.

 

[pppiglet]

Glad to have helped you. Hope you have a great cruise!

Great TR and pix! Love seeing all the pix!! Looks like you had a wonderful time!

 

[LovableGluttons]

Oooh wow!

That was a wonderful read! This was the first time I have had the time to sit, relax, and just read!

I just wish I was on it with you!

Happy Anniversary!

 

[pppiglet]

It was only 4-1/2 months ago, but it seems a life time ago. I am so ready to go on another one! Have to wait awhile though. So for now I just hang out here and read and watch for the new release dates and ships to come out.

Somehow it dissappeared for awhile and someone found it and revived it. I need to go back and read it again myself. I'm so ready for another trip!
