I gave up watching after 10 minutes. Just deleted my timer to stop recording any future episodes.

I do recall there being a place 2 story place with some sort of outdoor patio/deck. Yes, you are right. Hogs Penny is in middle of a street.

I'm loving your review and photos. Thank you for sharing with us🤩

I believe the new rule, or same rule that existed prior to covid, is a $100 penalty pp to switch your sailing if you booked a non refundable deposit.

If you want a 2 top table you can call royal and let them know your preference. You can also email them at rcldining@rccl.com 2 to 3 weeks before your sailing and place your request. Are you set for traditional or my time dining?

Was that Hogs Penny bar/restaurant in Hamilton? They make the best Dark n Stormys, great food and music. We love that place.

It's been a bit since I have sailed one and forgot that little detail. Thank you!

Perfect, at least for us, all beds are by the balcony just as we prefer.

I have been on serenade numerous times and just cannot remember but thanks for the suggestion I will google for photos😀

@Ourusualbeach Hi Ken, I forget the answer and I am sure you will know. Does cabin 7660 have bed by bathroom or balcony on Serenade?

Baltimore is nice with only $15/day parking (unless it went up this year). They are very easy in and out. All of our sailings this year have been out of Cape Liberty as we didn't want to deal with flights this year. I agree the downside of Cape Liberty is that long line of cars to drop off luggage. It is usually best to get there first thing in the morning or wait until early afternoon when there is no line and you can walk right onto the ship and go straight to your cabin. Sailing out of Bermuda used to be very easy too

Happy to hear the pain has subsided enough for you to proceed with your travel plans and cruise. I wish you and your hubby a wonderful trip with perfect weather and a sciatica (Merv) isn't a pain in the butt. Safe Travels and we will look forward to your photos when you can post.

I will have to plant some garlic next year. Love garlic Straw this time of year is definitely much better and easier to find that it was in the Spring when I was setting up my core gardening beds.

It is definitely much easier to find straw this time of year vs. this past Spring when i setting up my core gardening and tried several local farms for straw. I think next year I am going to have to try Garlic. I do love garlic😃

If you have some of the free government tests try rapidtestandtrace.com Much better than OnPoint, IMO. Walgreens was the best!

Hi Deb, I would definitely give a call back and pretend it is your first call into them about purchasing the DBP and refreshment pkg. You are able to add/cancel things on your cruise planner up to 2 or 3 days before sailing so you have plenty of time. Sounds like you got one of those CSR's that really doesn't know and just makes up their answer as they go. Good luck!

I love your commentaries and I love these babies. You are very blessed😃 Now, we need to plan a Kenzie cruise and she can "drive" the ship😁

I agree, we will get a much better view to watch from home.

Please do yourself a favor and either put the drugs on bedside table into a drawer or maybe one of those plastic shoebox tubs with lid they sell at dollar stores. The last thing you want is Olliver knocking over meds or finding something on the floor that he accidently injests. This was recommended by a Hospice nurse when we did at home hospice for my Dad since their cat spent all day in bed with him.

We ask for table for 2 when we book by phone then I follow up with an email 2 or 3 weeks before cruise with any special requests for location, window, etc. Has worked well for us.

Sorry to hear this. Why go back if he has no interest and did nothing?

Ouch! Glad to hear nothing broke. Have you bedazzled your boot yet? Maybe put the Royal logo like @ReneeFLLdid to her handbag😀

When I was there on Anthem with Independence last Spring, there was plenty of space everywhere, but ships were not full capacity. When I was there on Oasis with 6500 passengers and i think it was Harmony with something like 4000 or 4500 passengers, it was Very crowded everywhere. Long lines for food, drink, bathrooms, etc.

We have done the pirate ship excursions in Barbados and St Lucia. The one in Barbados was awesome. We had a really fun day with lots of good snorkeling, swam with sea turtles too. The rope swing on the boat is fun too! We even had a couple renew their wedding vows onboard. Aruba is not known for great snorkeling but it should be a fun day. If this is not a royal excursion, ask the vendor how you get to them from the cruise ship. Remember docking at 8 am usually means first off ship would probably be 830 am
