Two random questions...

[diz4me]

My mind is all over the place, so my questions have nothing to do with each other. Sorry!

1. Are there bibs available for my toddlers in the dining room, or should I pack a bunch for messy desserts?

2. I called a couple of limo companies today about transports. When I asked about grocery stops, Tiffany Limo said there were no groceries on the way, but they would stop at a small conveniece store. Is this accurate? I don't want to pay conveniece store prices, and would rather pack more from home if this is the case. Also, any tips on picking a limo company RT from Hyatt to port will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a million!

1) Yes, bibs are available

2) They're either misinformed, or they're giving you misinformation. There's a grocery store right off the first exit east of I-95. I have more information on shopping opportunities at my web site...

Thanks for the information, you never fail! I should always check out your site first.

When we used Tiffany on our first DCL cruise we were told there was no grocery store, too. The driver did stop at a 7/11 not too far from the airport, even though I mentioned there were grocery stores near Cocoa & the Beeline Expressway. Our next cruise we rented a car, and stopped at a supermarket in Cocoa Beach. For us it was a much better option. If you're interested in a Limo you might want to contact another company.

Wow! I didn't know they had bibs available! We brought Bibsters and loved them. I keep a couple of them packed in my diaper changing kit now. They're great for unexpected stops on the road.

I didn't know bibs were available either & I thought I knew all (well a lot) about traveling with babies. What kind are they? Plastic or cloth? Disney logo or anything? I've been looking for one of those straps (and clips) they use in the dentist's office to put the drape around your neck so that I could use the napkin as a bib (but bibsters are good also-if only my DD would keep one on)

We also used a shuttle service and I explained that I needed to stop at a grocery store, not a convenience store as we were buying jars of baby food a box of baby cereal and we did not want to lug them in suitcases. I was assured we would stop where baby food was available.

Well, I know about the store Dave is talking about and I also know there was one across from Ron Jon in Cocoa Beach. I mentioned these to our driver and he said he knew of places.

First we stopped at the Raceway Gas Station in Cocoa Beach and of course the only baby food jars they had were covered in dust and sickly looking (only 2 jars were on the shelf!)

Our next stop was another convenience store further down by Shirley's Perfect Gift. I told the driver I did not think that they would have what we needed here either but he insisted that they had baby food. Of course they also only had a 4 jar selection that was outdated.

I finally insisted that we go to the grocery store across from Ron Jon and the driver reluctantly agreed (we were taking up too much time). Once in the real supermarket we found exactly what we needed and were in and out in 5 minutes. If he went where we said in the first place we could have saved about 1/2 hour.

Wow, I wish I would have known about the bibs. It would have sure made those chocolate covered Mickey ear ice creams much nicer! I'm kind of aggravated that the waiter never offered after seeing my DD night after night covered with chocolate from head to toe!
