I'll be there - it's sort of a graduation present for me. I'll be with my parents and my two sisters, 13 and 10. The 29th is my dad's 50th birthday.

Looks like there will be a few 6 year olds - we'll be there with our son who was 6 last Dec. The 3 of us are looking forward to our first cruise.

Did everyone get their documents?

I am looking for a place to go in St. Maarten. Does anyone one have suggestions or ideas? Dawn's Beach seems to be a favortie of some. None of the excursions listed interest me and I am more than willing to take DS6 on our own adventure.
Thanks!

We're gonna try the St. Maarten Island and Butterfly Farm Tour. I've seen good reports on the excursioin.

hi we havent received our documents yet but we cant wait thats when it all starts to feel real!

 

[Mickbee]

Yup. We will be there too! Quite a few New England folks!

It will be our first cruise! Any thoughts for fun for a 9 yr old DS?

First time cruisers can get $ for onboard credit. Contact you travel agent or DCL, which ever you used to book your cruise. Ask for code REF. Using this code, we got a $50.00 onboard credit. The thread is http://disboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=206665. See you aboard starting June 29.

Hi! We are on the 6/29 cruise as first time Disney Cruisers. Sons are 11 and 6. We received our docs, and are sooooo excited. We live about 5 minutes from Philadelphia. We are from South Jersey. Can't wait to get there!!!

Enjoy and see you there.

It looks like we will be on a boat full of kids. It is going to be busy that's for sure! See you in the Mickey pool at 7 a.m. There is no way I am fighting the crowds during the day.

I am taking my son to Coral World and Coki beach on our own little excursion but I am still looking for something to do at St. Maarten "on our own." Please continue to let me know of any good ideas.

Thanks!

ALBEERS - Thank You for the tip!

I called Disney about the $50 credit and was directed to go through Orbitz ( that is how I booked my cruise) for the credit. Orbitz really didn't know what I was talking about but called Disney and I was given the credit. My husband asked why Iwas on hold for so long. I told him it was worth the $50 to be on hold for 5 minutes with Orbitz. I wrote the names of the people at Disney and Orbitz just in case I run into problems when I check in.

Thanks again for the tip!

Has anyone else not gotten their documents yet? If we booked through our travel agent will he get them and have to send them to us?

 

[upstateny]

As I said, I booked through Orbitz and received my documents through Fedex awhile ago. I had no problems.

We booked through AAA. Our travel agent call us last week and stated that she had the documents. Picked them up on May 31.
