  1. I hate to be like the police, but wouldn't it be nice if people would limit themselves to one or two books to borrow rather than four or five? It's like anything else, the more you take, the less for others.
  2. Saving money on a cabin is just not worth it sometimes. To me, a good quiet night sleep is priceless if you have any doubts about the cabin, just don't do it.
  3. Can you imagine having the time to go to a bar to get a drink the day of disembarkation? Not to mention the fun of lethargy for the long travel day ahead lol.
  4. We've loved them. Usually a more serious crowd and well traveled. People are accustomed to traveling alot, so there is a huge difference on these adventures. Just to clarify, this is not the Caribbean crowd, not that there's anything wrong with that lol! Ship is pretty quiet after 9 P.M.
  5. We used to rent them, but I find them hot with no breeze. Plus, they seem to set them up on a sloping hill of sand, so your chairs are never comfortable. I'll go find some spot somewhere down the line with a bit of shade. Works out well
  6. Don't be bitter. Shortens your life. Sometimes you just can't change things. Maybe on your next cruise, you can request extra tiles. I've done that. Now, I am about to remodel a bathroom and tile a wall with these tiles. I have so many it's ridiculous. Hang in there and maybe you'll be luckier on your next cruise, if there is one.
  7. You mentioned that it's hard to get a table in the Lido and that you breakfast by the indoor pool. I do too, since it's generally more serene and much quieter. Lido can be chaotic.
  8. Best ones are in Tortola. At Pussers. Oh well.
  9. You have the very best blogs or postings, whatever we call it. Thank you for all the fabulous photos....it makes me want to book a cruise right now!
  10. Thanks for your reporting. I've never been to these ports and hope to someday, God willing. I appreciate your information and am very grateful to learn more about spots to visit.
  11. My clothes generally do not have pockets for pens or gloves. I respectfully refuse to sign anything at the bar. Not a big deal.
  12. I love a lanai cabin. Quick access to the promenade. But, be careful. Check the deck plan. Some of the cabins are under the kitchen galley. That's a guarantee for a miserable night's sleep.
  13. I love that ship. We've had three cruises with her in the past 2 years. The Dutch Cafe and deck 10 lounges and bar are my favorites in the fleet. Od course, I always said the Maasdam was my favorite Then Rotterdam. Fickle I guess. Have fun!
  14. Really glad for your postings. Thank you. Bon Voyage and all life's blessings on your journey!
  15. Thank you for this thread. It takes a certain amount of effort, and money, to post and I am one of many who appreciate it.
  16. Your remark of dead cow hit my funny bone. Sorry all you vegans. Of course, I can't eat rabbit. They are way too cute.
  17. Thank you from me, too. The trip to the Canary Islands and Azores was a personal favorite for us, so you bring back fond memories. We found the mountains in the Canary Islands to be breathtaking when we toured and that left a lasting impression.
  18. My diet consists mostly of fish and when we sailed for a few weeks last winter, I found the fish to be very good. And I am picky about the freshness quality of fish. Personally, I find if I freeze fish for a week or two, it has very little effect on the overall taste.
  19. I consider lunch in the Pinnacle to be a very special occasion. The filet with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes are really something I'm not having on a regular basis where I live. Bring it on. I will happily leave my coveted lounge chair and book to enjoy a very fun lunch complete with a great glass of wine.
  20. This is all heartbreaking and so miserable. Oh, to wait for peace. We pray.
