I'm a little dense. Does this mean that we can book our excursions after midnight tonight if we are CC members???? For some reason I thought it was tomorrow night????? I guess that would be the 20th, not the 19th. I guess I really need this vacation!!!!

Well I see some water there... so how about this...

It says April 19th in "My Cruise" link on the DCL website. So, I'm guessing that means after midnight tonight.

Oh, and they've upgraded our storm warning to a flood warning... Ya think!!!

Technically - for you (I think) it's 11pm.

(Central time right?)

Yeah that's probably right although, then it's not the 19th it's the 18th - to be even more confusing -I seem to remember dh getting up in the middle of the night to book for our last cruise - Then again just about anything past 9:30pm I consider the middle of the night.

I plan to be long asleep even before 11pm tonight. Well maybe not. DS has his first official high school band function tonight that goes until 10:00pm.

It used to be that you had to make the reservations at 3 AM EST, but they changed that last year. Now it is midnight EST. Last year when I made our reservations it was one of the rare times when both ships were departing on the same day. The Wonder from PC and the Magic starting the return trip from the west coast. There were a lot of returning passengers fighting the web site to make reservations. It was crazy!

OK so, then I'm not crazy for remembering 3am! Thanks!

noahsmom · 04-18-2009, 03:52 PM

OMG! I forgot tonight was the night!! How could I forget?! Got our new Passporter in the mail today too- great timing!!

Noah's team lost by 2 but it was their 1st game and they played against a team that has been around for awhile. Noah had a great 3rd period with no goals, just saves

He's the goalie.

We are going to The Baths in Tortola, in St. Thomas DH is going golfing and Noah and I are going to do Sea Trek.

For all who are interested in meeting other cruisers, a group will be gathering at the SSR Turf Club for drinks and chatting. Then while some head off to dinner reservations or other plans, the rest are invited to boat across the lake to DTD and enjoy the great (I hear) food at the Earl of Sandwich (look here for the menu: http://allears.net/menu/menu_eofs.htm).

I think there's a problem with this meet - The 14th is Tuesday. Thursday is the 16th. OR it's one LOOONNNNGGGG meet.

Going with the water in the water slide photo. This is a picture of Grills Restaurant at Sail Away (notice the mickey hands...) I'm really not getting much done in the kitchen - plus, the Cubs game is on....

What's the sport? Hockey or soccer?

Dizzyworld · 04-18-2009, 04:05 PM

Can't resist...going with the boat theme.

I'm not getting anything done.

Nice, both ships in at the same time, too?

mickeymo · 04-18-2009, 04:07 PM

Where does the other dock let people off at?
