After my next cruise, I will be moving to Discover, giving me 4 “complimentary” nights. From what I am hearing, I am unlikely to be able to use them on anything other than possibly a very short cruise. Is that about right?
If you mean, for example, that the French Chefs Table menu never varies, I am with you there. I have had it twice and from what I have seen, the menu is the same as when I first had it 5 years ago.
I think I heard that a lot of people dropped out! It's a very popular race, for which you have to register in advance, so lots of people at the start. I only finished because it was my first marathon, so I was determined, and my lovely, 20 years my junior training partner, practically dragged me across the finish!
I DO have a cruise coming up very soon, which is making all of this tolerable! On the other end of the spectrum, I once ran a local marathon, where the temperature at the finish was in the high 80’s (f) and this was only late May. The next year, they made a high temperature regulation to prevent competitions in those conditions. It was pretty bad!
