Trying to get my ducks in a row...

... but they keep waddling away.

On the eastern cruise, what night is formal night, semi-formal night, lobster night, pirate night?

One more thing, the brunch is offered on sea days, correct? So, that would be three days it's offered.

... too many ducks to get organized (11 people in our group)

Ok, first thing you do is take a deep breath and exhale slowly. There doesn't that feel a little better. I can help you with your questions. My DH is the King of Planning and since we just sailed last Nov. you can rest assured that he planned the whole cruise down to a T.

1. Formal night is Sunday evening. Don't get your hopes up expecting to get all dolled up and have your portraits taken with Mickey and Minnie in their finest cause it won't happen. I was royally peeved to discover that they show up dressed to the 9's on semi-formal night.

2. Semi-formal night and lobster night both take place on Thursday evening. This is the evening we usually choose to spend at Palo's. Delicious!!!!!

3. Pirate night is the night you are in St. Maarten. That would be on Tuesday. We surprised all of our fellow disers by showing up in full pirate garb. It's amazing what you can find in October at the Halloween shops.

4. Yes, brunch is scheduled for sea days and you have 3 days to choose from. Be sure not to miss this if at all possible. It was delicious and the servers do a fantastic job.

I also recommend the REAS package. It is soooooooooo worth every penny. The massage alone was great. Try it if you can.

Thank you for your quick response!

You said that you spend Semi-formal night (Thursday) at Palo. Can I am assume that they have lobster there also on that night?

We had our picture taken with Mickey/Minnie in their formal attire on formal-night. It was outside the Walt Disney theater that they were taking the pictures. Probably one of the best photos we bought from shutters.

Yes you can get the lobster tail at Palo's. It was very yummy. I also recommend the tarimasu for dessert. It was to die for. I know there are 1000's of people who will disagree with me, but I enjoyed it even more than the famous chocolate souffle.

I'm not a chocolate lover, so tiramisu would be great! Thanks for the tip.

I can't wait for October to roll around. It's taking soooo long.

What is tarimasu? Is there coffee in it? Thanks.
