Originally Posted By murfsmom haunts- nope, the meeting are in the evening on sat night before dinner(which is the dress up dinner or captains dinner, don't know what they call it on this ship) glad you booked an off shore trip through the ship, they(the ship) will tell you don't go through with any of the trips they try and talk you into on your way to town because if something happens like car trouble, the ship won't wait for you and you have to pay(a lot) to get back to the ship or home for that matter !!! one time as we were leaving baja the ship stopped and we all went to the decks to see what was going on and we could see the port off in a distance and saw the mexican police with 5 young people getting into a boat, they brought them to our ship and every one was booing because they were late but they had to pay BIG fines for that !!!

I wonder if DH would be willing to extend the vacation another week. I know he'd skip work for a couple of weeks when we win the lottery If not, I'll keep it in mind for 2009.

Their better halves have become Disney nuts too and everyone is always ready to meet up with us on a DLR vacation. After those vacations, DH and I almost need a vacation for ourselves so the idea of a cruise sounds fun I think I'll throw out the idea this weekend. Doubt it will happen but then there is always that lottery idea
