Sugar*Magnolia Posted July 16, 2007 #1 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Wel, cyber cabin IS really cool and I can even IM my kids. Not sure thats a good thing though!! Anyway, Explorer is fabulous. The staff as always attentive. We FOUNND the infamous cookies and I must admit they ARE very, very good!! The ship looks great!! We shared a coconut rangerrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!! After muster (argh how I hate that!) and Sail Away (was great & took some hopefully amazing pics going under the bridge) we met up with most everyone from our Roll Call! Our own Meet & mingle, since RCL doesnt host for a 5 night. Everyone is a lot of FUN and we're off to meet up again now. Check in was pretty painless, altho I did see 2 pieces of our luggage grow wings and fly off the back of the.....thing that transports your luggage! I was not a happy camper but everything arrived safely and quickly to our cabin. We had out table switched which ended up switching our DR to the first floor which I think vibrates more than the 2nd or 3rd floors dining rooms. Stay tuneddddddd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlbconsul1 Posted July 16, 2007 #22 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Cruise Diva. We're going to be on the 8/3 sailing with a large group of family members. I bought one of those dry erase boards the kids would hang in their locker to keep track of everyone. Are the doors metal? This has a magnetic surface to hold it.

CRUIZINMOMMANJ Posted July 16, 2007 #25 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Yes, my daughters name is Amanda....and I cant believe you really went!! You are too much. We sailed on the 7/1 cruise to Bermuda. Did they remember Amanda?? We tried to get out of the room so quick - we forgot the doll - and when she remembered we just got off the ship - and I keep telling her that the doll is in my suitcase - so I cant unpack until I find a new one!! Too funny!! Kelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
