What's next Baloney?

Only if it's fried. Lol. (This was a staple in my house growing up)

Any one ever brought on a Black Box wine? We did on our Princess cruises.

I was on a Princess ship right after it had been in dry dock in Peurto Rico. It was crazy because they didn't get it completed on time. They did not allow anyone to board the ship until 7 pm that night. They bused everyone waiting to board at a nearby convention center where they fed us and had movies playing. When we finally boarded the ship, it was still not complete. They worked on it our entire cruise. Many people were upset because the casino was not opened until the day before the cruise ended. We did receive OBC toward a future cruise. I don't think I would take the first cruise after a drydock.

We are sailing on her next February. So happy to hear your review. Our last cruises have been on Freedom class but am just as happy to be on Voyager class. Did they still have wine packages? Also happy that Deck Patrol do address the "chair hog" issues.

I have been on many Royal Caribbean cruises and have always packed bottled water in any extra space I had. I never had a problem with this. I plan on brining our allowed wine on our next cruise along with bottled water.

We just booked the Marriott Stellaris for February 24, 2016. We stayed there before and loved it. It is pricey but in a great location and easy walk to many restaurants.

11 more days tll the FOS.

we try to go on a cruise once a year. Last year we went to an AI in the DR and although we had fun, it just wasn't a cruise. we also have a vacation account which we contribute each paycheck.

I bring bubble wrap to wrap any liquor bottles I buy in the islands so I can pack them without worry.

I got the Normandie hotel when I requested a category 4 or resort for a pre cruise on 1/23 and 1/24. I need to book another room post cruise on 2/1/09 and am very nervous about getting stuck with the Normandie again ( did not here any good reviews - anyone have any suggestions????
