Haven't checked in with you guys in a while. Hope everyone had a great \
Independence Day. We went closeby and stayed at a hotel near the lake and watched fireworks/parade.

3 months and 5 days to go!

Anyone know what the date is when we get to book Palo and excursions?

2am Sunday morning July 13th......if I'm counting correctly...
Maybe I should clarify....At one time, it was Midnight Pacific time. So that is where I get the 2am, for us in the Central time zone.

 

[TexasGirl]

Thanks Big Red. I guess I should be thinking about when is the best night to book Palo. Do you guys have a suggestion. I didn't want to miss Pirate night or the night Animators lights up.

When is Pirate night?

Ah, and I want to try to book Palo for brunch or high tea on a sea day.

Afternoon everyone!

The garage is cleaned out! We made our run to GoodWill. I still need to get the tiki tent decorations back to the owner...maybe tomorrow....she's on her way back from a weekend away. then, just MAYBE Steve can park his car in the garage too! We'll see. It'll be tight.

the A/C is NOT WORKING upstairs again!! GGGRRRR!!!!! It's 85 up there right now! So frusterating!!!

Have to get my shower....we are going to dinner with friends! Just the Golden Corral, but that means no cooking for me again!! YEAH ME! LOL

I thought it was midnight Eastern, or 11pm for us in the central time zone? Of course for me it's not till the of July.

Hey gouodux!!! Did you have a chance to look at the list??

Sorry, must have missed something - what list??

Does anyone know which is right. 11 pm would be good for us Central time zoners.

I think he's talking about the cruiselist with all of us who are chatting here and sailing. Did somebody send you the link to the website? If not i can send it to you and you can look it over.

Alan also sends out the list via email periodically as info gets added or changed.

No idea which time is right. Try asking on the main board. I had heard that 3am Eastern time was the official open so everybody in the USA on the cruise competes at the same time.

 

[Octoberbride03]

And now its time for my own

**Cruise Question**

Since I am stuck waiting for the 75 day mark for my own choices. Is it actually worth it for me to get online and book stuff then? Or should I just wait till we're on the ship and book there?

I just got off the phone with DCL and confirmed that Palo ressies can be obtained beginning at 12:01 a.m. EST (11:01 p.m. CST).

Well alrighty then. That's a nice reasonable hour. Now if only I could fastforward thourgh to the 75 day mark Thanx for the info PiperG

Pirate Night is Tues/St Martin. Since it is tough to guess which night
you will have Animators just schedule it after the first 3 nights. Wed
would be a good night because we leave St Thomas so early.Last year
on the cruise they switched Pirate Night to Wed the same night as our Palo
reservation. We just kept them and barely made the party.

Hey, thanks! I can handle 11 p.m. much easier than 2 a.m.!!!

 

[SoccrMom]

Hey, thanks! I can handle 11 p.m. much easier than 2 a.m.!!!

That means it is even earlier for me!! 9:01 is certainly doable for me!!!

 

[RanCan]

I think 9pm is a great time for us!!!!! LOL

Hello all!!!!!! I hope everyone had a great weekend!!!!!!!
We are having a great time with the kids and grandkids!!!! This heat here in AZ takes a little getting used to!!!! We pretty much stay inside because it's just too hot to be outside for very long!! We wait until evening to go swimming because the pool is very warm and it's not real refreshing, so we wait until it cools off to about 90-95!!! LOL

 

[cdhheidi]

Have I ever told you how much I love our TA???

She sent us some extra's they had (they are not allowed to put up posters or window signs in their building) and lo and behold...we now have some vinyl window stickers of Donald and Goofy, in portholes with DCL on them! Hoping to figure out a way to put them on the beast for our drive out to FL... and maybe before and after too.

LOVE it, and love her!!!!

It is very possible that is correct. When we booked the first and second time, it was 2am for us for some reason.
