Oct 30 2010 7 Night Western (PART 2)

More navigators are up....Twice Charmed has been moved to Monday to coincide with Formal night and we get the Prince and Princess dinner- NOT Villains Menu like we expected! :sad2: Villians show is now Tuesday with regular rotational menus..AND no mention of the Villains Ball that they were holding in the atrium over the summer cruises (all of the Villains characters for meet and greet and photos)..that is a BUMMER! Will mention more "changes" or items of note as I come across them!


Do you remember if there is a special menu for Halloween? If so, that could throw are nights off from what the 10/16 had :confused3
 
<sigh> I was hoping to see something from Judy here on how the "big reveal" went and most importantly, Tim's reaction! I'm hoping the 4 of you still get to cruise, it would be a shame if Tim and Martyn have to wait for you and Daniel to return from our cruise!

Tim was woken up for the big reveal and was still half asleep so he didn't really get it. There was also a "fan club" outside waiting for him, so he was a bit shy, but by bedtime last night he was good to go.
They are pulling the kids out of bed as I type this to hit the rod.

I think this is a possibility. The information from DCL about Halloween activities included a mention of "specialty menu items", like spider cakes, witches brew, etc., none of which appear on the regular menus.

It would be great if our cruise had some special stuff!

Thanks for the update!! That is great news!!
 

I think we touched on this a few weeks back.:confused3 On the Cozumel boards of Cruise Critic there are many threads in which people have stated that US currency is still accepted.:goodvibes There are actually posted signs near the ports in Cozumel that state the taxi fares in US $.

Yeah I remember us talking about it I am just having last minute freak-outs and needed some reassurance :) Thanks!
 
many also include a small thank you gift for the staff like some candy (there should be plenty of that around on this cruise!!!). Since this is really not official policy a thank you can go a long way.

And, since this is not official policy you may not get all the signatures you want or you may...depends on how much time they have to spend at any given time. It has been also been posted that they prefer 1 or 2 items per stateroom or it can overwhelm guest services.

Thanks for the info, I've got my pillowcase and sharpies all set up in the baggie!
 
Hey Jen (or anyone that knows. . . ) - would you please tell me again where Dopey will be at MNSSHP? thanks!
 
Okay, we leave in less then 36 hours....we have 5 days till cruise and need advice. Traveling with a barely 2 year old. When paying the tip at the end of the cruise do we include her in all the costs? Little help here?

We tip the full amount for Sarah. She has cruised at 4 months old, 21 months old,and now at 2 1/2. The only time we reduced the tip for her portion (and even then only very slightly, we did still tip for her just not quite the full amount. We actually evened up/went over in the end though as we had such excellent service) was for our dining room servers on the first cruise when she was 4 months old and not eating food at all. We go over and above for the stateroom host, as in the past there has been a diaper genie to empty and extra bed (pack & play) to make up/change, etc. We now tip full amount (over & above if service warrants) now that she is old enough to eat at the table. We've found staff on our previous cruises has treated her excellently and has been very good about meeting her (and our) needs in that department, therefore the tips have been well deserved. Hope that helps! :)

Yes there are special menu items. I don't think it will be a full special menu, but that is just my speculation... I could be wrong. IMO it is more likely to be a supplemental menu to the normal rotational menu that is served that night. We shall see very soon.

On that note can someone do me a favor and take a picture of whatever special Halloween menu is presented that night (as we are in Palo and will miss it! :() Front cover too if there is one...
Even if it is just a flyer I'd like to see it! Thanks in advance!!! :hug:

Hey Jen (or anyone that knows. . . ) - would you please tell me again where Dopey will be at MNSSHP? thanks!

As far as I know the only opportunity is all 7 Dwarves together. It is quite possibly THE most in demand character opp at MNSSHP, everyone has said line up first thing (they come out at 7, tips say to line up at 6-6:30) as the line does not get below 45 mins or so the rest of the night. They have been located mostly at the Fantasyland Skyway but it was reported recently that they had moved closer to Snow White's Scary Adventures. Have Fun!!!!! :)

Hey all, I was checking to see what time the shuttle was going to launch and it looks like it may be delayed til Nov 1:

As far as I know it has been Nov. 1 for quite a while. I remember checking into that back when we booked our hotel in Feb or so (thinking "gee how cool would that be") LOL I am actually glad now we are missing it, there will be enough going on with the Air Show! ;)

Who's getting excited?!?!?!? :banana: (memememememe!- tonight's my last night of work- yippee!)

MEMEME! Unforunately, I still have a half day of work tomorrow to get through. I'm hoping to leave early so I can squeeze in a maini/pedi tomorrow afternoon. I always try to wait until the last minute so it lasts longer.

Not much longer now! :woohoo:
 
I just read this on the main board, so I made me wonder:

Did we set up a way to alert the FE group of any room changes? If so, I must have missed it, so could someone let me know?

I'm worried that someone will either (happily) upgrade or (sadly) be forced to change rooms due to maintenance issues and I won't know where to leave their gift.

I seem to vaguely recall that we might have said you can find out about any changes at the Dismeet, but now I'm thinking I might have imagined that.

Good question, I don't know.

BUT...I will take this opportunity to remind everyone to download their FE lists and maps/deck plans! Links are on Post 1. It still appears not everyone has downloaded their set yet! Remember the Deck Plans/Maps will not be provided to you onboard!

I will have a limited amount of copies of the LIST ONLY available at the Dis Meet if anyone forgets or loses their packets.
 
Over the door shoe holder - check!
Pedicures (with not-so-Hidden-Mickey for Morgan) - check!
Pillowcase and sharpies in baggie - check!

I'm getting there. It felt like my lists had multiplied like rabbits overnight, but now I feel like I'm making some headway. :yay:

We're extreeeeemly excited as well...and it's a busy week for us work-wise as well, so it feels like we're running out of time. I'm working crazy hours this week so we can both pick up my parents at the airport on Friday...I normally work 8:30am-5:00pm, but this week I'm working 7:00am-6:00pm (10 hrs + 1 hr lunch) yesterday & today, then 7-11 on Friday so we can pick up my parents for a 12:00 noon-ish arrival from Pittsburgh. Oh and we're also going to a play at our local preforming arts center Wed. night. Gonna need a vacation after this week!!!

See you all on the boat!

Just went to Target and picked up two light pink pillowcases. I'm thinking maybe I should have picked up a Sharpie too. All we have is black, maybe dark purple on pink would look better than black.

Black and pink is a classic combo!
