Hi Lisa,
Just booked and joined recently. Wanted to double check, is the private beer tasting closed? if not, I would like to join...just me. Boyfriend is not a beer drinker. Let me know and I can send you the details. If I understand this correctly, we are bringing beers from our area to share?
Thanks,
Crystal

Mary, todd/copper, I would like to be included in the champagne girls. I have not added myself to any part of this cruise so far. We are celebrating an anniversary, so I won't be able to attend if champagne is on the 9th, but anything else is a go!

I will pm you with my info.

Thanks! Jennifer

That sounds great. I had looked briefly in to the HOHO but I felt weird her going on her own. I think I saw 2 HOHOs though - can you send me a link to their website so she can check it out?

Barcelona has 2 tour companies with HoHo buses, but I only see one for Malaga.

Lets see if the link goes through. Are you guys going to be at the Hard Rock?

 

[clareyfairymouse]

Hi. Does anyone have the details of the tour company in San Juan that then drops off at the airport?

A number have people have booked with the following company who offer a couple different tours followed by airport drop off.

Hi
We are also on this cruise and were on the 2011 wbta, there are 4 of us, my husband brother and sister in law, we were thinking of booking a day room at a Hotel or complex with beach or pool for the last day in San Juan before an evening flight back to UK, just wondered if anyone else was doing this and knew if any hotels offered this facility.

Hi Susan,
I recently joined the group. Checking to see if anything is still open. As for linked dinning...never done it before. We have requested table for 2, but can we link to be seated in the same section as the FB/DIS folks?
Thanks,
Crystal

I sent DCL an email with your addition.

I think we are just going to be doing the HoHo bus in Malaga. I am travelling with my father (83yo) and while he is mobile, he does like to sit and rest a lot while the rest of us explore an area.
Your mother would be welcome to join us, atleast to get to the tour together, and if she wasn't interested in a stop that we were going to do, it would be easy enough for her to continue the loop and get back to the ship.

You might want to check out the CitySightseeing Malaga Hop On - Hop Off bus.

DH and I are doing HOHO in Malaga. Sounds like there is a group between us and pharmjenn's family..

If she(your family) are doing HOHO in Barcelona, pm me. We are doing the HOHO bus too..I am thinking of the blue bus, I did the red bus last time I was there..

Thank you.

 

[European]

On my last trip to the US, I bought Tervis tumblers from the Disney movie Frozen at Bed, Bath & Beyond. I adore them and would love to buy some more to give them as a present to friends.

Because they don't sell them in Europe, would someone be able to pick up a 16oz Anna & Elsa and a 16oz Olaf for me? It would help me give an original present to my friends. I can pay you in advance or on the ship.

If anyone wants anything from Disneyland Paris, I'll be there August 30 & 31st.

Thanks!

Hi GatorMomInNC
We are also staying at Le Meridien - arriving Sept 4

Great! I was wondering if we were the only ones! Last time we stayed near the airport and it was fine, but this time I was determined to stay near Las Ramblas.

We get in on 9/4 also, 5:40pm. I have tried to contact the concierge to see if we can get connecting rooms but so far no response.

Barcelona has 2 tour companies with HoHo buses, but I only see one for Malaga.

Yes, I only see the one for Malaga. Looks like it picks up right at the pier, which is great. Were you getting tickets in advance or just get them that day? It's pretty cheap (certainly compared to the excursion I am taking to Alhambra, I'm tempted to switch!). My mom would love to join up with you guys if that is okay.

We have put in a request to be added to the HRC list, but I heard back that the organizer is getting some push back from them, so not sure what the status is. We are in room 8076 if we don't see each other at HRC.

I sent DCL an email with your addition.

Cool

I wasn't planning on doing the HOHO bus in Barcelona because the other time we were there we took a private tour. I was trying to concentrate more on going a few places, but I'm starting to worry that my kids will be bored with my plans so we may end up "hopping" on one of those...

BTW, did anyone else get a $50 port fee credit today from DCL?

 

[nancyelew]

AlexL and NJA, I just sent you a PM regarding the FE.

Oh no, Valerie! I'm so sorry. I hope you haven't lost all your files without a backup. This serves as a great reminder that I haven't backed up files in a long time. <MUST DO!>
