COUNT US IN TOO!!!! It's lots of fun! Just to add, on the back of the "tag you're it" sign, when we did it last time, we had each name and cabin number of who was "playing tag" and you just marked next to the person/family you tagged the day/date you tagged them so everyone got tagged once, but if I remember right, we got everyone tagged twice!!! If I remember right, WDWCrazzyCunninghams were on that cruise!!!!

Alright, Nancy has got me signed up for the FE game. Now, how do I get signed up for the tag?

Oh you may have us trailing along with you guys!...We may do that plan as well. I just told my DH about your post and he said "If you want to do that then that is fine" He just doesnt want to be the odd man out with our lil guy...so knowing that there is another family like ours then he is all for going I need to go on and book thru them We are definantly in it for Coral world as well

awesome!!!!!!! we would love to have you on the tour with us!!!
I would book very soon though, to make sure there will be room!!

 

[cdhheidi]

Thank you so very much for the encouragement Yea my lil guy is quite the talkative one and it is extremely difficult if not NEAR impossible to keep him quiet. (he gets it from my hubbys side of the family) Yea DH came in and was saying that he was scared to book away from disney but I read him your post and I think he is slowly changing his mind I have to weigh in my DS though and see if he could do an all day excursion like that...He hates staying any place for too long and not sure how the tour will be, although I would love to go on the tour to see the wonderful sites I guess we have to think about this

My guys are quite the talkative pair as well... think of it this way, i have *heard* that is a sign of intelligence. LOL!

We are doing Godfrey's tour, and on St Maarten we are doing our own thing (DCL style... see to Sea and the older boy and dad are going the regatta race).

Looking forward to meeting everyone in person, SOON!

I guess if I would have gone back and read the pages I missed, I wouldn't have sound like such a dork on my last post! LOL!! If I remember right, I tagged the Cunninghams on that cruise!!! Michelle, thanks for getting the tag game started!!

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

Alright, Nancy has got me signed up for the FE game. Now, how do I get signed up for the tag?

I already got you marked down! LOL

 

[gssmks]

Just go to www.godfreytoursvi.com and put in a request!

Will this automatically put us with you guys? Is there a certain tour we should ask for? or a certain departure time?

Are you doing the Limo or Safari?? I dont quite understand what the difference is...but im thinking Im more of the safari type than the limo

we booked the safari!!!!!!!! LOL sounds more FUN!!!!!!!

I am not sure how that works. I know our pick up time is at 10, Nancy's is at 11. But after that, the tours are the same, it's just the amount of time shopping that is different. SO, I am not sure if once everyone gets done shopping, if we will all be on the same tour or if there will be 3 different "buses" for the 3 different tour times.

DD and I would definitely want to do this. What I have booked with Disney is the Coral World excursion. We had discussed just doing it on our own so that we could go to Coki Beach, but were afraid to venture out on our own. How do get signed up to be included in this?

if you go the their website you can book there! you pay cash to him directly on the day of the tour!!!!!!!!

We aren't doing Godfrey in St. Thomas but are signed up for Bernards in St. Martin. Our 3 year old will be in tow. Neither of you would be alone having an active toddler along. But there is so much variety, plus a 2 hour beach stop, I'm not worried at all. Esp. if those around are going to have some patience...which it sounds like they will.

Some of us on the Bernard's tour are going to ask to be dropped off at Le gallion instead of Orient beach which is perfect for little ones. Calm, protected cove, sandy.

I'm sure the St. Thoms tour will be fun too. We're just doing Bernards but Godfrey's is great too. I don't want to do an all day tour 2 days in row however. In St. Thomas I'm taking our DS 3 and DD 8 to morningside beach in the morning just on our own. While DS 3 is playing and hopefully napping in club the rest of us are going to go snorkle.

Selfishily, I hope you both join us for St. Martin! My son would love to have some playmates!

and also maybe depending on which beach you want to go to right? they had 2 choices of beach, we chose Coki!!

Coral World on own

Since I'm posting...

We went to St. Thomas 4 years ago on a Disney Cruise when DD was 4. We did Coki and Coral World on our own and LOVED it. We really, really prefered being on our own time schedule with a young child so we could "adapt" as we went. It was super easy. Taxies were everyone to take you...plus we used an online coupon and it was much cheaper.

I'm sure we would have enjoyed a local tour as well like Godfreys. We just didn't know about it.

I don't remember picking a beach? I'll have to go back and look at his site again!

We have a 10 pick up time as well... My guys are not THAT much into shopping, but I figure they will have to put up with me. Poor boys... LOL!

we were going to book a tour for St. Maartin but now we're leaning more on renting a car for the day and driving ourselves and stopping whenever LOL

 

[gssmks]

Well, I just booked something on the Godfrey website. You had to choose between tour one and tour two. Tour two seemed to be only a day at the beach, so I chose tour one. I also chose the Safari instead of the Limo. There was a place for other comments. I put that there was a whole group from the Disney Magic reserving the tour and I would like to be placed on a Safari bus with some of them. Hopefully we will be with some if not all of you.

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

this is taken from his website....there's not a choice of beaches, it sounds like Coral World and Coki are right at the same location....

We will make a stop at Sir Francis Drake's seat, overlooking Magens Bay Beach. All those who wish to swim, snorkel, jet ski, parasail or spend time at Coral World, will have two (2) hours at Magens Bay, Coki Point, Sapphire Beach or Coral World and return back to the ship at 4:00 p.m. ship time
