September 17, 2006 - 11 Night Southern Caribbean Part 2

[LetsGoSteelers]

For those of you thinking about booking the repo's for next year here's the onboard incentive:
$250.00 in onboard credit
Prepaid gratuities
10% off for booking onboard (not 100% on this one)

okay...what is a repo again? where does it go, how long, etc?

 

[Scott H]

what bahamian forms? we're supposed to print them out? I thought we just filled them out and that was it.....oh oh

Yep those are in the packet you get can't print them out. The DCL form you can print out if you get your Docs on line. i.e. charge authorization, cruise contract etc.

Repositioning Cruise. Sorry missed the last part of the question, the up comming repo goes from FL to the Med in May and then returns in Aug. They are 14 day cruises.

Repositioning Cruise.

umm sorry, i knew the long form, i just don;t know what it is..

 

[Scott H]

no probs I just edited my previous answer as I missed part of your question. Hope that helps. I should add that it will just be the Magic. Repositioning from FL to a summer home port of Barcelona Spain.

just a lil gripe or maybe I'm not doing it right, but is there someway to save your reservation under your profile on the disney site? You think they would have some way to bring it up automatically instead of having to put in your reservation number every time you want to look at it...or then again maybe there is someway to do this that I am not aware of....

That irks me too, but it's for your own security. I asked the same question to DCL on the phone and that's what I got Stinks, but I keep mine near the computer.

Thanks!!! Sunscreen is always on the packing list for this red-headed, freckled girl!!

Laurie,
Yeah, I understand completely. I am blonde and hazel eyed, white as Martha White's flower with a few freckles. Will burn in 10 minutes...
Bullfrog is my friend!!
Hat and long sleves help, also.

Is this going to be on a DCL ship?

We all would like to know that

I'm not understanding the upgrade system. Don't you have to pay for an upgrade? We checked on a 7th floor (our fav) verandah upgrade and it was $2000 more. We just couldn't see spending the extra. Is there something we have been missing here.

On another note, I just got finished talking to my nephew ( who is 18 months old ) for a full hour! He sang itsy bitsy spider about a million times and sang his abc's and counted to 5 and said every family members name about 50 times but I just couldn't hang up! The kid is OBSESSED with any kind of phone! His fav (besides a real one ) is the Buzz Lightyear I got him from WDW. It made me miss home even more. I am SO ready for this vacation! I miss my family and even though we wil be cruising for 11 days we will be home a full week after the cruise. Then we can be like normal people and do this

On yet another note (because I'm bored to tears) where is everyone finding swords for pirate night? I need to check the party store again but Disney Store was SOLD OUT! They did have the cutest costumes for kids-Davy Jones was the most impressive with a hat that recreated the tentacles. Very KEWL! Kevin has his costume, I have mine- everything is coming together nicely! So far....

Good evening everyone! Hope you all are having a great day. Rainy here today. At least the grass is green.

Time for with hubby.

I'm a member of the Lily White Club as well. Panama Jack SPF75 is my friend! I also wear a hat in the sun or else my scalp on my part line burns!

Why didn't I think of that! I spent all my brain trying to understand Peter's answer. Is it Physics, Is it Geology. Is is BS. Noooo. Peter understands dirt.

Frost Heaves

Cause Originally, frost heaving was thought to occur due simply to the freezing of water in soil. However, the vertical displacement of soil in frost heaving can be significantly greater than the expansion that occurs when ice freezes. In the 1960s, frost heaving was demonstrated in soil saturated in benzene and nitrobenzene, which contract when they freeze.

The current understanding is that ice crystals forming in soil draw water from the surrounding soil, in a process similar to freeze-drying. Heat generated by the freezing process prevents lower levels of soil from freezing as well. Depending on the amount of moisture available, a significant amount of soil displacement can result.

Soils not Dirt !!

That is if you call DCL.. and add on before the cruise !! You simply pay the differnce in the price !!


Now on the day of the cruise, at the port the 2k upgrade can be had for alot less.

If anyone would like a cat 3, 4 about 4k more Give them a call!!

Heard there might be one not Sure !!

No clue as to teh maddness of an upgrade, I hear some folks get them without the $$$$, so got me. I was just dreaming

Try a dollar store for a sword.
