I was a day camp counselor at a private camp many yrs ago...25 maybe?? (UGH was it really that long???) I was tipped and it was pretty well even back then. I made more in tips than regular pay. When I worked at Girl Scout camps, I didn't get anything back then...except small gifts or cards...

Welcome js1102ss! The shows alternate. For people with main dining, the shows are after dinner. For late dining, they are before dinner. On sea days they sometimes have a performance of the show during the day also. :)

We have a dachshund named Nathan. DS thought it would be funny :rolleyes:

We're Main dining. We actually have always been early eaters. With all the activities at home & DH working nights, we try to eat after homework & before practices, games, rehearsals etc. Doesn't always work that way but we try! Plus we found on the cruise that this way we get dinner out of...

I'm so sorry for your loss! It's never easy to lose a loved one :(

Welcome eeyoreandtink, Vicky J, Misako & mspb18! I'm not sure the best way for the tweens/teens to communicate pre-cruise either. On a past cruises, my DS & DD were involved in email chains and there were threads here for kids only. They didn't really like the DIS threads though since they...

No problem Tammy! Thank you for organizing everything else:goodvibes

I did an intro in the other thread but will do a new one in here too :goodvibes We are traveling with myself, DH, DS who will be 15 when we go, DD who will be almost 11 and my parents (in a separate stateroom). This is our 8th DCL cruise, 7th on the Magic (1 was on the Wonder). We did...

Thanks belac. We can keep an ongoing roll call in this post if anyone wants to add their info. Just let me know your DIS name and who is in your travel party. OK, I guess I'll start then :cool1: Stimpy: Self, DH, DS(15) DD(10, almost 11 at cruise) Eeyoreandtink: Self, DH DD (11) Iolanthe...

My DD will be one of those borderline Edge kids lol. She turns 11 in April after our cruise so she's hopeful they will let her move up. (But she's ok if they don't since this will be the first time in the club/lab since the redesign). DS was allowed when we did the Baltic a few years ago. He...

Belac, is it possible to maybe put a roll call in the first post of this thread? Not with very specific info but maybe DIS names, family info so we can get an idea of who we have here to reference? For example: Stimpy: Self, DH, DS(15), DD(10) I noticed there are several girls my DDs age...

Welcome Vicky & Dori2011! Nice to have you :)

As a mom of an unremarkable HS student, thank you! :goodvibes I really worry about my DS when it comes time for those letters. He's a pretty good student but doesn't stand out at all. (Math happens to be his least favorite subject but this year the teacher was one of his favorites :thumbsup2 )

Welcome Tracy! :goodvibes Hope this cruise is a big improvement over the last one!

We had a "fun" trip one year with my DS when he was 3. He got hurt 4 separate times! First day in the parks, he pulled out of my hand, ran down Main Street to get to the castle, got his foot jammed in the rut of the trolley tracks, fell and split his forehead opened...right in front a group...

One Direction with DD (10)& her friend in Aug at MetLife Jimmy Buffett at Jones Beach the following week... Not saying which one I'm looking forward to more :cool1:

Just booked a 1br at BCV for the two nights before the cruise. We had points left over for this year so why not? :cool1: Now hopefully the weather will not be a repeat of this past winter!

We've always rented a car from Budget at MCO without a problem. We fly in the night before, pick up the car, stay at the Country Inn & Suites, return car and they shuttle us to port. We've also had DH drop off myself, kids and the luggage at the port first & then he would return the car and...

Hi everyone, We booked this cruise a while back. It's our 8th DCL cruise :goodvibes All but one have been on the Magic...our favorite ship! (One trip on the Wonder) I requested to join the FB page today (Kimberly). We are from NY. It's myself, DH, DS who will be 15 when we travel & DD...

Lol....we just paid $35 for a case of water on the Magic in July! $16.99 sounds cheap! :) We're checking into the BWV tomorrow and will do a quick grocery shopping trip for basics...breakfast, juice, water, other adult beverages, snacks. We'll have a 2br but don't actually make any meals.
