Check your local Target over on Sunset Hill Rd/ Spring St, they sell adapter kits with the adapters for all over the world for around $20. Radio Shack also sells the adapters. We have a couple of the entire kits with a converters because we travel a lot and the price difference with the converter is not that much.
Sorry! I must have been posting too late. My post/reply really made little sense last night. I have all the adapters/converters somewhere, just needed to know which to bring (since I'd rather not bring them all.) So far I've found one (for my blackberry charger), just need to look for the regular ones (for regular plugs.).
The best advise that I can give you is to not use elastic. This goes brittle over time and will swap. When I started out making jewellery, I used elastic, but soon came up against its limitations. Nowadays, I exclusively use Beadalon (nylon-coated, multi-stranded wire). It is a little bit harder to work with as it cannot just be knotted, but it is virtually unbreakable. If you want to send me the necklaces, I will restring them for you. PM me if you are interested.

Thanks for the advice. I have no idea how much it would cost to ship the broken necklaces to the UK. But I really appreciate the offer!
To book a private tasting with DCL we need cabin assignments or ressie number if your are a GTY status. This is becasue all of our tastings are PRIVATE and non refundable. I am updating the lists to include cabin number for those that are on my other lists, or have one in roll call. If you don't have a cabin number listed, can you please PM me your cabin or ressie number so I can get it all organized. (new lists will be posted today)
Also - what about time of day for tasting? Does 4pm work for everyone? Is there a better time? I am hoping to book something each day (maybe not the day of ladies tea as that could be Champaign Girl day as well?) so if you have an opinion please let me know!
Thanks for organizing! Since we have early dining, we'd prefer a slightly earlier time (like 3 or 3:30) since we'd have to pick the kids up at the club and go get ready for dinner. But if it ends up being 4, we'll make it work.
How about a favorite blankie to cover their head?
They'll both have their blankets/blankies with them, but I doubt the'd put them over their heads to sleep!
Still not able to PM. (Have to have posted 10 times.) Please sign up Jack and Rene Baron (DisneyFreakNo1) for Wine Tasting and Mojito Tasting.

Now that Sue has you recorded, I'd recommend going back and editing your post to remove your reservation number (since it's a public board.)
Just a note about group tastings. When I've arranged them in the past, we had no say in a date or time. DCL arranges them based on room and server availability. Most were between 1-3pm on a sea day. We did have one wine tasting at 11am one day but most were in the afternoon.
These times work generally for us, though we do have some SPA treatments planned. Hopefully we'll know far enough in advance that we can still cancel or change SPA reservations if they conflict.
Well we've had a lovely cruise-related day today! we got the cases down

and have put them in the spare room, together with all the holiday things I've been buying. Then we tried things on we weren't sure about.....
Anyway, seems I have my clothes sorted!

Great news! We're slowly starting to make some progress here as well. I got my guest bedroom put back together so I can then set out the suitcases and start packing items that I know we're bringing. I also picked up some dresses last week while I was travelling, and we tried everyone's dress clothes on the other night so I know what I need to replace or get altered.
For the fountains - I would prefer to do the first show, and be there early so Becca can see. She is def. a munchkin! I will stand with her, and Stephen, well, Stephen can fend for himself as he is (somehow) now a bit taller than me... (Who told him to grow?!?) Oh yeah - Glenn is on his own as well!! (Sorry Dear!)
We did the TSA locks as well - I found 4 packs for $11 each with free shipping and grabbed 2. now I don't need to worry about any of our luggage. It was well worth it for piece of mind... For the airport, the hotel and the port...
We have hopes of seeing the Fountain on Thursday, but it will depend on how everyone feels after our first day.
On the locks, I need to buy stock in a lock company. I buy 2 and end up breaking 1 within a short time. And I rarely check bags, but we've had several arrive with the lock seriously bent, or missing altogether.
Good for you for arranging it with the school. I have not said one word to them yet. Figured I'll take care of that once the administration is back in after the Summer break. Not sure how they will react, but I'm going to ask for 2 weeks of independent study. If they won't grant it, well then he'll just be absent.
My DS is heading into 1st grade in Sept. We have him slated to move to the Lower Elementary campus of the Montessori school he's been in, and had mentioned our vacation plan to his teacher, and she was all supportive of it. Plus he's currently in a year round school so we weren't worried that we'd be leaving just 1.5 weeks into the new school year. But now we're considering moving him into our local Public elementary school. DH met with the Principal there last week, and she wasn't too excited about our trip, since they see the first month as being so important in setting the routine, but given it's 1st grade, she wasn't making a huge fuss over it. Though she did suggest he keep a journal, which is current school had also recommended.
remember the first night in animators is a show so that cancels out the first three nights , then you have formal and also a semi formal .. 2nd week seems better and night 11 seems like a othing going on night , so we can make it a theme night all by ourselves ... just think the other guests will want to know why they didnt know about MMC night
From looking at the rotation list shown previously, that also listed the theme nights and menus, it seemed like nights 4, 5 & 6 were the standard "Rotation" menus. I take it to mean that those are the nights that the AP show will be on. So it's not nights 1-3 that you'd have the AP show, but 4-6 depending on your rotation. Perhaps someone from the EBTA can confirm if that's how it worked with the AP show on their cruise.
