Hey Cruise fans!! We are headed to the "packet" party to get our docs for the Panama Canal cruise!! :banana: pirate:
 
Can anyone tell me what kind of night activities they have on board???

If they offer a babysitting service at night so the parents can have some fun???

If they offer tours of the boat for the kids and parents???

Recommend excursions???

Thank you again!
:welcome: Aboard!! Check this out for the onboard entertainment.

There is info here about activities for adults and children. This should get you started until some others can pass more info about your child care options!
 
Hello all!!!
How is everyone doing tonight???
I just wanted to stop by and say hello!!!
We are leaving for AZ tomorrow so I'm going to be busy getting things packed and ready to go!!
I am going to try to stop by later and chat with you all!!
 
Candy, have a great time!

It's a quiet night for us..thankfully. As soon as Steve gets home, I am heading to bed. Thank Goodness tomorrow is FRIDAY!

Kristin, in case you haven't been over to the Creative DISigns board, Amy has made your door signs! Check out post 590! She made mine as well. Now we'll have 2 different signs for our 2 stateroom doors!
 

We are new new new to the whole cruise vacation thing and need advise. Have heard people mention online credits...what is this? Should we book through a travel agent and not the cruiseline? Can anyone recommend a good travel agent that can get us online credits? I will be on here a lot soaking up everyones knowledge - hope to premeet alot of fellow travelers and maybe we can meet on the cruise. It will be my husband, myself and our little boy who will be 7 at cruise time. Look forward to saying hi and getting alot of great advise!:goodvibes


Welcome Khrystah! I sent you the name of Kristins agent, since you should contact her quickly. This boat seems to be nearly full already! Hope you can join us!!!!


What's this about door signs on another thread, should I be checking this out too???? I'm so clueless!
 
The door signs are the stick figure Mickey family. the lady that was doing them on that thread, got way behind for some reason, and she is just now catching up. Pinkygirl was so nice to make signs for us, but now Amy has caught up too! SO, I'll have 2 different signs for my 2 different doors!

Hi Erika ~

How full is the boat? I would imagine the travel agent isn't available tonight and I don't want to lose a space!!!
 
Hi Erika ~
The email address you gave me did not work - can you please send it to me again.

Thanks! Krista

Hello one and all, anyone out there...........................



OK, here come some first-timer questions:

1. The Disney FAQs state that you must bring all medicines in prescription bottles, is this true? We use weekly containers because all the containers would require a bag for themselves! Plan on bringing a list of all meds/dosages. Also, my DD6 (will be 6 tomorrow!) takes 3 liquid meds 2Xday that we usually just make up ahead of time in syringes (non-needle) when on vacation.

2. The liquid meds must be kept cool. We asked about a fridge for the stateroom, but Disney claims the cool box already in the room will do. Is it cool enough? Asking permission to bring a soft cooler with us as well.

3. Is the fitness center (treadmills, etc.) included or an extra cost? If I'm going to be EATING, I better be running as well!

4. Best excursions for a family with young kids? DD4, DD6, DD12

Stay tuned for more Qs!

Just wanted to say Hello!!!! our first cruise too, so we can learn together:goodvibes

Thanks Gina,

She is an absolute doll! And everyone is well... With her arrival we can now start the process of apply for her passport for we would like to use our DVC for the first time and head to SSR and Animal Kingdom in July.
Have you finalized your flights yet? Flying from Toronto or Buffalo.. Were all leaving Pearson on the friday morning.
I was in your neck of the woods this morning Bayley and Westney... Sounds like were going to get smack with snow tomorrow. Pull out the shovels again.

You were close, should have stopped by!!! Did you get the new DVC book? We got ours awhile back, AK and SSR, how wonderful, we are staying at SSR for the first time in March and we have stayed at AK before which is just too beautiful. Yes, we are supposed to get smacked tonight, not looking forward to it. Again, I am so happy for you and your family, I can't wait to see pics.
