I figure I'll have an hour to get my technique figured out before her duet with Demeter.

The shimmy up in McCavity should not be missed hahaha!

ETA:  I do think RCI has done things correctly regarding this case.  They have been silent up until this point with the exception of sympathy statements despite the parents & lawyer taking pot shots since day 3(?).  Their statement is very well crafted IMO.  

Completely agree. RCI has done everything right. All they are doing by releasing the videos is backing up their claim. There is no ill-will. Just a fact based on video-evidence.

I firmly believe that at all points of this sad happenings, RCI will remain very sympathetic to the immediate family of the little girl.

This is a funny post.

We literally have people who are up in arms because someone on their vacation is not doing what they want them to do. Personally I do not appreciate the recent trend of thong bathing suits, I personally do not want my daughter to see that, but guess what, I deal with it.why? because in the end, their choice in not hurting me.  I can look the other way and choose not to make it part of my vacation. It is their prerogative and within the rules to wear what they will.

Instead of this horse-beaten discussion, why don't we all agree that vacations are fun, that shorts are part of a cruise life, and that MAYBE someone has different feelings/ means than you that would equate to making such a decision.

So then I need to figure out which camera. Cell or DSLR. 

Which ever way you choose... please snap a few pics of Bomba for me!

Call me crazy but I love rough seas, especially at night.  Being rocked to sleep by the sea - doesn't get any better!

I agree, aside from the hangers in the closer banging around.

The cast seems new, but based on One Sky, the actor who plays Deuteronomy is familiar. 

From the pictures that I saw recently, you are correct OD is played by Doug Askew (He was with us on the Noro-cruise last year.)

I did see the CATS Wiki page has been updated to show what songs were cut, but I will leave that as a surprise. I will say, that not only did they save time by cutting songs, they also saved money by possibly cutting an actor as well.

I was on Harmony last week and you could feel the movements. They pushed a bunch of the shows (or canceled some as well) because of the wind and waves.

We had sustained wind around 40+MPH. It was really fun going to the King Of the World Lookout and trying to stay on our feet!

My in-laws were on the Adventure last week when their stop at Coco Cay was canceled. They were only on the last day of the cruise.

They went to Labadee instead and went back into port (Miami) on time.

From your C&A Lunch menu, I can only assume that the Executive Chef is German?

The Spatzle sounds AMAZING!!!

Also, I am so excited for you to see CATS again tonight!

Poor kid.  😉

She is 2.5 Years old... She will get over it! 😝

When my wife and I found it difficult last week to find half&Half, we would take our Daughters whipped Cream from her pancakes and use that instead. It made the coffee a little frothy and actually was quite nice!

Then again, who knows what will happen when the ICON Class comes out.

Doesn't Oasis go to the Mediterranean during the summer for 12 night cruises?

Is it ok to remove the towel or whatever else has been placed on a cabana, clamshell or chair if there is no one in it? Or can a crew member remove? 

There are signs that state it is against the rules to reserve chairs... Me personally I allow a 30 minute window (they might actually be away.

The top cruiser in Royal Crown & Anchor program

Didn't he basically create the Pinnacle Club?

That was one of my guesses

Mine as well, that is an easy 10-15 minute cut that is no longer in any of the Staged productions.

So if you remove the intermission and take out Growltiger, you lose the 35(ish) minutes from the show.

Whichever way, I will wait until Friday to start our CATS discussion.

I'm sorry I can't tell if this is a joke? $150 per slide? 

Very much a joke. Using the Crazy RCI Math.

2 days... I leave Sunday on the Harmony going to the Western Caribbean!

We bring a few ziploc baggies and throw them in that, then put them in the trash can. That usually block the smell.

Why I asked. I can’t imagine exploring with anymore than a backpack. Do I overpack?! 😝

That is precisely what my carry on is. Also, we bring an umbrella Stroller for my daughter and use that as a pack-mule.

We like to get to the parking around 10:30, so we are walking to the terminal at 11, then we can go ahead and board around 11:30, eat lunch and explore, by then the room are open and we are IN BUSINESS!

Can Confirm, except some ships might be open until midnight.

But the play area next to the Nursery is open for Open Play

Every cruise we have been on, the price increases at 5pm
