[1stDisneyCruiseForUs]

We are doing:

St Maarten: Seaworld Explorer Submarine
St Thomas: Full Day Caribbean Sail to Turtle Cove & Honeymoon Beach
Castaway Cay: Stingrays in the morning, and DH & 10yo DS are parasailing in the afternoon

Cannot believe it is coming so soon! On one hand excited! On the other hand, darn, was hoping to lose a few extra lbs

See you all soon!

I'm sure we'll meet before then. Hopefully on the first day we can have a Dismeet.
I'm not doing this one just DH and DS12. DS really wanted to feed the stingrays. DD15 and I are going snorkeling earlier, so we can be there to take pics. I don't know how it will all work but I'm going to give it a try.

How many of you all are decorating your door?
Just wondering. We are. It was a lot of fun making them.

We will be decorating ours too! Although, I'm not making specific stuff for them. Just using things we've gotten from past trips.

So, thought I would start a new thing on our thread. How many of you are doing excursions? What ones? What are your plans for St. Maartan, St. Thomas/St. John, Castaway Cay?

St. Maartan we are just doing Great Bay Beach and shopping
St. Thomas/St. John- still up in the air, no excursion booked but we def want to go to a beach- probably just take a taxi. And def shopping
Castaway Cay- Parasailing in the morning, Water trike, Family beach.

Any others?
6 weeks and counting.......

We have no idea what we are doing at St Maartan and St Thomas. Does anyone have any suggestions? We want to do a beach, but something that is appropriate with a 2 and 5 yr old. We don't want to do an excursion just something on our own.

At Castaway Cay we are just doing the beach and snorkeling on our own.

Thanks for any advice!

Can't believe it's come up so quickly! Just got back from Hawaii this week. So, now time to plan for this trip! Any final stuff about FE? I need to start buying!

I was wondering the same thing about FE. I added my family at the last minute. I bought everything to make my FE and have my ideas for the gifts, just need to know who and how many.

All right, the nightmares have started. When we travel to WDW I have nightmares several months before we leave. Things like forgetting to take suitcases, missing flights, show up at wrong resort etc.
I thought I may escape it this time but last night I had one. We showed up at port and I had someones luggage that wasn't mine. Then I didn't have our travel docs.
I think it's my overactive, compulsive mind going into overdrive, making sure I have everything in order.

Does anyone else have nightmares? Or am I really off my rocker?

You are not alone. Alianna tells the story everytime we are prepping for a WDW Vacation. I always have 2 nightmares. The first one is that I show up at the airport with no luggage, fully dressed up top and underwear on, but no pants and walk through security before I realize it....... lol.
The second one is that We show up at the airport to fly out and my clocks were wrong and we miss our flight and have to get another one booked, when we do, our luggage goes on the wrong plane and when we get to FL I have no luggage. I haven't had it yet, so I guess we will see if I actually have them again....lol. Either way, I have never had a bad experience, so hopefully it is the same this time!!!!

Just a matter of time! Right now my dreams are focused more on work-related drama, but as soon as that subsides, I'm sure vacation-related drama will be next to produce those wake up in a cold sweat dreams.

Fellow Magic-ears!
I was wondering if anybody has interest in creating a Facebook group for this sailing. I'm open for suggestion, but it seems like a nice way to get to know each other better, follow the conversations easier, encourage more interaction, etc. I'm happy to create a closed group if anybody is interested.
