We are having a very crappy weekend but nothing like FL. Rained all night Friday into Saturday morning with a little break in the afternoon. Strong winds howling for several hours this morning with several hours of downpour. Little break now but more to come.

I am not aware of any cruises that spend more than 1 day at CocoCay. There have some rare cases where the ship docked there more than once when some ships were denied entry to other islands due to amount of covid cases onboard. I could be wrong and maybe you will find one.

Lichy is a beautiful cat. You are beaming with joy too! Beautiful photos. 🥰 I, also, love the flooring at your friend's home.

We had a very strange visit with Eric's Mother today. Our Son came to with his Fiance Donna to let us know due to drama with her family they have decided they are going to have a simple wedding by the Justice of Peace and the courthouse and set the date of November 15th. We will all then out to dinner. Restaurant to be determined. Chris wanted to let his Grandmother know so we drove over to her house, after calling to say we would be over. She hasn't seen Chris since July or August. She simply says Hi, come in. Never hugs or kisses anyone. We follow her to the family room where she has the TV blaring. I turn off the TV so we could all chat and visit. She is upset I did this. Chris proceeds to tell her and first words out of her mouth are, " is she pregnant" they have been engaged for just about 2 yrs. She then grabs the remote and puts her TV back on, blaring. Now at this point, Eric is fuming. He shuts off the TV and says wouldn't you like to visit with your family. She says, "Why. It doesn't matter I will be dead soon." She has been saying this her whole life!! poor Donna not knowing how to react gets up and leaves the room. We all left with her sitting in her chair watching Alfred Hithcock. Ugghhh! Never understood this woman and never want to. She has been cold blooded, nasty to everyone her whole life. So sad the children don't have a loving grandmother. Thank you for letting me vent. Time for a cocktail, maybe some Kraken.

How's your cruise so far? Bit chilly and rainy here.

Most homeowners insurance companies will reimburse but I am not sure about the minimum amount and the deductible.

Also want to fill out the form for specialneeds https://www.royalcaribbean.com/resources/guest-special-needs Let them who you rented from, etc. Ask for a dining table towards front of MDR so you don't have to zig zag scooter thru the tables.

Yes, we had rented a scooter from specialneedsatsea.com for $235 for 7 day cruise out of Bayonne on 8.28 Price is much better than scootaround and the service was terrific. They will leave the scooter in your cabin. If you need wheelchair assistance to get into the terminal ask one of the port workers at front door. Then once inside the terminal and through security go to your far left and they can transfer you to a royal caribbean chair that a crew member will push for you to board the ship. Rooms are ready around 1 pm so if you check in around 1 or after they can take you to your cabin on the wheelchair. If you check in early, we did 11 am and went to lunch. Then at 1 pm I went to cabin and rode the scooter to where my hubby was waiting. When cruise was over we met with wheelchair assistance group, make reservation with guest services for your departure time. And we left the scooter on the promenade deck with other scooters. Worked great!

I would love for a review of the world cruise. Such a different experience than your average cruise and would be nice to hear all about it.

You can call to book excursions. I think they have an option to press for excursions.

I carry a small backpack with sunscreen, cell phone, brush, book and glasses to the pool. Never had a problem. I wouldn't recommend just leaving a phone sit on lounger out in the open. Getting a glass of ice water is easy, waiters can bring to you or get yourself at any bar, no problem.

Sorry for the loss of your Mom😪 96 ys old is amazing, hopefully she passed peacefully and her memories bring you comfort.🥰 May she RIP🙏

I couldn't find prices on their website. Any idea how much to rent golf cart for the day?

$3799 for overwater cabana is crazy high, IMO. This serenade sailing is selling for $1199 with other cabanas at $799 to $999.

10 weeks...Woot Woot! That will be awesome. The most we have done is 4 weeks and it was really rough to come back home and get back to a daily routine of work, cooking, cleaning. 10 weeks would have me so relaxed and spoiled I would have to bring home at least one or two crew members to help get me back into my groove😁

Happy to hear your families homes are all OK. Hope you have 3 weeks of smooth seas with warm sunny skies. Bon Voyage😀

We are on Anthem 12.04 sailing and plan on doing just as you said. We enjoy South Beach or chill island and prefer the snack shack with their funnel cakes, etc. Over the buffet. There are lots of nice free areas.

We had this back in 2020 for something like $45 on sale. We loved the area but said we would never pay more than $60 or $70 to return to the beach club. I just booked at this price. Worst case we change our minds and cancel it, we have till next September to decide.😀 @sgmn might want to book if this intetests you and Gary.

That's a great price! My other future sailings all have it listed for $175:to $245 pp. I'm on that Serenade report sailing and will definitely check that out. Thank you!

What a sweet, precious little girl🥰 Momma pup seemed to really appreciate the visit. Thank you for sharing

I believe they have stopped asking those questions sometime in August. We were not asked anything (other than the 3 questions on the app) on our cruise last month.

It is so very odd that your invoice states final payment date of october 7th for a sailing on december 24th. Your final payment date should have been Sunday September 25th. Sounds like your reservation was messed up from day 1. did you book direct with royal by phone or online?

That is awesome that he is an energy efficient kitty. Adorable😀

Wow! They are really enjoying themselves. I don't think I could sit still for that long with all of them around and climbing on me.

The last time we had to change cabins on a b2b they took everything that we had hanging in the closet and put on hotel cart and we pack to our toiletries and whatever else loose items we had in drawers. Then they moved our luggage for us to the new cabin.
