I think they forgot they bought it and they sent it.....after 11 months!!!

on some ships, you can purchase photos online after your cruise. maybe someone did it for him?

No, no one purchased it after.

Maybe they forgot they purchased it and didn't pick it up. It is kind of crazy that almost one year later they

mail it to them. The other thing is, the cabin was booked in my son's name (on board account was also his credit card) and the photo was mailed to his girlfriends home address?

We went on a cruise, Getaway, almost one year ago. My son's girlfriend just received a photo in the mail

yesterday taken on the ship by the ship staff of the two of them at dinner one night. They don't remember purchasing it

and even if they did I think they would have received the photo before they left the ship. Just the photo in a big envelope, no

note or anything else. Has this happened to anyone else?

They look like this. You follow the crowd past the shops and you will see them and a lot of commotion trying to get people going to the same place on the same truck.

Sorry for all of the confusion.....This is what the "vehicle" looks like that we took to Magens beach. It only made one stop to drop people off in town and than straight to Magens beach. I assume it would make other stops but the rest of the people that were on it were going to Magens beach. It was kind of hectic trying to get on the right vehicel. There was a person trying to coordinate but it was just a lot of yelling....they would yell out who is going to Magens beach (or another stop) and people would just yell out if they were going there and the person would tell them which vehicle to get into.

Not strange, it’s normal. Which is what the entire island is trying to get back to.

Strange that they were not running when I was there and a park employee told me they were not running and would probably not run ever again. You would think she would know if they were running.

Please explain open air bus ride vs a taxi. Why does a bus charge for how many people? Where do you catch it?

Thanks for the update. Just one question. I know that this beach isn't really known for snorkeling but perhaps after Irma things changed. Did you happen to see anyone snorkeling? We are going there after a morning excursion and didn't want to drag our snorkeling gear if we didn't have to.

I did see people snorkeling to the far left of the beach (about 20 or so of them). I don't know how it was or if the people I saw were on an excursion. I did not snorkel.

Monday and Thursday....Have a great time!

Megan's beach was open and beautiful. You can rent chairs, loungers and umbrellas. Open air bus ride to beach is $8.00 each person/each way if more than 2 people. We asked the driver to come back at a certain time and he did. He gave us his business card in case we needed to call him if we left earlier or wanted to stay later.

The entrance fee to beach is $5.00 per person

beach chair $8.00

lounger $10.00

umbrella $ 8.00

deposit (which is refundable when you return all items) $20.00.

also picnic tables (free) if you get there earlier enough to get one.

There is some shade from small palm trees.

There is a bar (no frozen drinks) and a grill. The bar was destroyed so they are under a pavilion. Good burgers $11.00 (comes with lettuce, tomato, pickle spear and bag of chips) good size burger, worth the $11.00. They also had chicken sandwiches, salads, ham & cheese and other things. They have planted a lot of new palms and trees. We had a great day at the beach!!!!

Strange????

I was there last week and did not see a trolley and they were not running. We walked to the fort and I asked the person (park employee) we purchased our tickets to the fort from and she said trolleys are not running and will probably never run again.

I was at Grand Turk last week and I was walking to the "graveyard" when two couples were coming back from there. They said they were getting chewed up by mosquito and to not go over there. I did not but I did find a conk were I was and when I was getting back on the ship the scanner picked up the conk in my beach bag and the crew member asked to see it. I took it out and she looked it over and gave it back to me and said "okay". My husband said he saw two on the floor under the scanner table that must have been taken from people. Mine was old and clearly empty.

We were in Grand Turk last week. Yes, the first two rows of loungers are run by the vendors and they charge. The rows behind are free. They were packed in like sardines. If you go to the right of the pier there are loungers and clam shells that are ALL free and less people. The water edge is rocky so if that is important to you bring water shoes also.

Just off the Glory and I had a car magnet (8.5x11) made with our names, and ports and it stuck to the door just fine.

We were the first Carnival ship to return to St.Thomas last week since the hurricane. If I remember correctly the

excursions, with the ship, to St John were canceled. I don't know if is was because of the weather or something else. The weather seemed to be fine. We went to Megan's beach which was beautiful. We did see a lot of damage as far as building roof damage and washed out roads, broken trees, etc. There were utility trucks from Texas working on the lines on the roads. Paradise Point was closed the day we were there.

YaY! Thanks very much!!! I will try and find it hehehe, Did you have a nice time and nice weather???

Weather wise...this was our worst cruise. Our first sea day was so stormy that most people were sick all day. I got out of

bed to get something to eat for breakfast and made it back to the cabin just in time...after that I stayed in bed all day. I was with my husband (who did not get sick) and two others that did get sick. This is the first cruise out of 15 that I have gotten sick. We did get rain on and off the whole week. We did get a lot of decent weather also. I didn't think we would make it to HMC. Cloudy and windy, a little rain now and than. Rain on the way over on the tender and on the tender back. Very rough from tender to ship on the return. The tender crew did a great job getting us from tender to ship. I came home with a tan! The cruise is what you make it. We had a great time and can't wait to go again !!!

I buried my treasure at cabana #11 :D Looking at the cabana, it is on the left side of the stairs. I will post a couple of photos in the next couple of days of X marks the spot !! I hope someone finds it and posts here :D

X marks the spot between the two rocks. It is not buried very deep. Good luck! Please come back and tell me if you find it !!

There were two rocks there but I didn't look under them. It was a little hard to dig. I didn't bring anything to dig with so I used

a fork and the sand kept falling back in the hole. I didn't remember which cabanas had treasure buried at them.

Thank you for the information. My husband will stay with the luggage outside while we shop.

My thought also....

We have decided to take 2 Ubers after all. Thank you again to everyone for your help.

Thank you....I just purchased the Social plan...$28.00 for 7 days.

Helpful dialogue, so thanks to OP for asking the question.

 

 

 

This made sense when I first read it, but then realized would have to deal with luggage.
