Interesting.... LOL...

No worries here - I added the kids on to our early morning Captain Nautica for St. Thomas and then decided on the Catamaran excursion in Tortola. Lauren isn't a big snorkeler - but the rest of us are... As this is Ashley's first cruise - we'll teach her right... LOL

The only issue I have is I wonder why Disney scheduled Tortola before St. Thomas. That means that we have to be up early for immigration in St. Thomas....

I so can't wait for this cruise...

Yeah. Walk-off home run. Congrats. Actually, I didn't feel toooo bad, since Aramis Ramirez is on my fantasy team.

hehe - I didn't stay up for the extra innings - Don't know how it ended.

Well - if DCL won't cooperate, we will break the rules and try and book directly with the vendor despite Disney's new exclusivity contract. I guess most people would tell me to do that anyway - but I really like the security of a DCL excursion and I get really uncomfortable when I know I'm breaking the rules. Yes - that's the goody two shoes coming out in me.

Interesting that for all the Tortola cruises it lists St. Croix.

I also remember reading that US citizens no longer have to get up for immigration in St. Thomas. I would be excited but I booked an excursion that meets at 8:30 AM so I guess it wouldn't have matter to us anyway.

Of course it helps that my team won, but these games have been a wild and exciting ride! The cubs cardinal match ups always make for some great baseball. Did you see the stats listing that it's been either the Cubs or the Cardinals as division champs? One year shared with the Astros, technically.

Let me see what we are doing that day and if I can work it myself and DD could entertain your DD until you return.

I'm going to attempt to book the Sea Trek on our own. I sent an email this morning to Coral World. Guess we'll see what happens.

I agree with your ideas, personally, anything on water at these two ports is recommended.......We loved the catarmaran sail that we did. With everyone booking this week, I have to get some definite answers from the BFs so I can pay in full and get mine done!
