  1. from my recent dream cruise. I don't have American Table menus, but I do have the room service menu somewhere.

     

     

    What about the movie times and schedule that they play on the Lido? I didn't see that anywhere in your funtimes[emoji848]

  2. I forgot! Chris the Flying Scotsman! I have never had a Cruise Director that I felt had a big impact on whether we enjoyed the cruise or not until now! He is absolutely amazing. If you go on the Dream, do NOT miss his show in the theater.

     

     

    I can't recall a single cruise director from any ship, from what their name was, to what they looked like, or if I even liked them or not until I sailed with Chris the Flying Scotsman. He was FANTASTIC!!! And he was everywhere!! I planned my meals and everything around him. I loved watching his actions in the atrium before/after a show every evening!! BEST. CRUISE. DIRECTOR. EVER!!!

  3. When we have Cheers, we order top shelf for every drink. My regular drink in a vodka/diet but on a cruise, it's a Grey Goose and diet. I love a gin and tonic, but on a cruise it's a Hendricks and tonic. Take advantage of every upgrade you can. Also, the Baileys milk shakes from the coffee bar are awesome ...and they're included!

     

     

    Not to sound totally ignorant BUT...when ordering these drinks top shelf, do you need to know the name of the top shelf liquor or can you just say "top shelf"? Or would I sound stupid if I said "make it top shelf" ?

  4. We stayed on Dream last May in room 10290 which, if you look on the map, it is first room closest to the lido excitement. We were afraid of noise and never had any at all. It was perfect in the fact that just a couple steps away was all the daytime action and also nighttime movies. Never stayed in the hall long enough to feel whether it was hot or not but how long do you actually stay in hall?

    Booked for June 2018 in room 10291. Couldn't get 10290 or else we'd be back there again.

    So with that being said, I would happily take the upgrade to 11 rather than 6th or 7th!!

  5. Third on Paradise Resort!!

    $3 per person and that gives you chairs and umbrellas and access to the pool.

    I want to say it's around $17 more if you want to do the inflatables. My husband would pay for himself and my 6yr old so he could take him kayaking otherwise the water was too deep for him to go alone on the inflatables. I wouldn't pay for me as I don't like all that stuff. Just give me a chair, a drink, a beautiful view. They do not police on how much you spend on food or drinks but they do ask that you patronize their menu. They also have a very nice pool without having to spend the extra cost on inflatables. I brought some cheap sand toys on the ship for my littles to use on port days and then just left them on the last day so not to have to haul them off. Each kid also had their own backpack to carry with a couple toys each, their goggles, and their towel, and change of clothes so I wasn't having to haul it all (not my toddler, of course). Also, attached to their backpacks they had their puddle jumper life jackets clipped and hanging outside of the backpack.

  6. *Plays Jeopardy theme song*

     

    BTW, we'll be cruising on her in 2 weeks (!), so if nothing is posted before then, I'll be sure to share when we get back. :D

     

     

    Please still share yours when you get back as I will be going in a month and a half.
