My DH says that when eating Royal Caribbean food you must always put 3 words after the name of the food, "Royal Caribbean Style".

Thanksgiving family cruise on the Anthem and was disappointed in the option (not options) for vegan meals both in MDR and Wndjammer. One appetizer, one main, and one dessert in MDR. The entree for Thanksgiving dinner was a stuffed bell pepper which was also offered earlier in the week. One evening in the Windjammer, after consulting with the chef, he was only able to identify two vegan items - sourdough bread and couscous casserole. It was frustrating to find that the head chef and the dining staff kept confusing vegan with gluten free. There was vegan cheese for pizza at Sorrentos, but only on gluten free crust. We cancelled reservations at Jamie's when the offering for vegans was limited to rice pasta. Pre cruise conversations with Special Needs resulted in assurance that vegans would be accomodated. A plant based diet is not unusual, and getting wide acceptance. What's your experience on this topic? Is it peculiar to the Anthem?

We learned to add 3 words to each description...."Royal Caribbean Style". Royal Caribbean Style eggplant parm. Royal Caribbean style key lime pie. Royal Caribbean Style chicken korma.

curly4dana, Hello from fellow travelers, Joanna and Tom. This will be our 4th transatlantic, second on the Odyssey. Agree with the previous posts that layering is best. I tend to need more layers than most, and find the Odyssey inside to be chilly. On deck wind might be strong. Temps in our ports will be pleasant, in the 70's. Your plans sound wonderful. We'll see you somewhere on the ship - sailaway, slot pull, majority rules game, 270. ps, We stayed in Delray beach a few times, lovely. Is there still an Elvis show?

Anthem for "We Will Rock You", Wonderland, art, and not a long drive to Port Liberty from Delaware. I like big ships....

Jimbo, Totally agree. Also, bring old clothes to discard so there's room for your purchases.
