BBQ Bacon

That may be what goes in a hole up top by the Frangelico or Kahluha or they'll pull in a bottle like they did the Gran Mariner. 

You'll get your Bailey's!!

 

Phew.  I was worried there for a bit.  If I have to deal with people, I need my medication, preferably as early in the day as possible.

Sadly I do not see Irish Cream on those shelves.  I hope that gets rectified!

I am really looking forward to trying several things from the GDC on our upcoming 7-day.
 

In general, how long is the wait after placing an order in person?  Can you pre-order for the GDC from the Navigator app?

I was hoping it would be open early for first breakfast.  But as a snack for third breakfast and a pre-lunch snack will have to suffice.  Then a mid-afternoon snack followed by pre-dinner snack and pre-bedtime snack will have to do.

Currently if you look back at page 42 of previous threads from February 19th there is a very helpful discussion about the Grand Dutch Cafe including a link in post #10 showing the menu of all the free items and those with fees. You might want to take a look at it.  

I searched Grand Dutch but got so many hits, I gave up.  I'll try to narrow the search some more.

When looking for information on the Grand Dutch cafe it mentions that there is a fee.  Is this just for the beer and wine that is served there or is the food an added cost as well?

How much do you have to lose/win to make the various tiers?

Checked the San Pedro webcam and there are a couple barges beside Navigator of the Seas.  Been there all day.

Are the massage therapist registered?  My benefits plan through work pays for massages as long as the therapist is registered.

Think I'll keep my exercise to walking up to the buffet and back to the table.  That looks like too much work!

Loving the reviews.  Can't wait to get on the ship come September.  It's agony waiting though so these reviews are helping.

I checked out the app for our coming cruise in Sept on Navigator and I can also make reservations.  We have the UDP yet when we try to book reservations it is showing a dollar value for the reservation.  How do you book reservations when you have the UDP?  Does that have to be done onboard?

You would get dinged for the $5 plus the 18% gratuity placed against the $5.  I have been dinged many times for $1 overage against my vouchers in the Bamboo Room. Let me add what many are thinking..... no one needs 50 wings..... happy cruising

You have never seen me on Wing Wednesday! :)

Let your spouse order the extra $4 and no problem. 

Maybe I didn't ask the question properly.  The 50 wings at Playmakers is $25.  If I order this and the wife orders only $12 worth of food, do I pay the extra $5 and the wife has $8 remaining on her limit or will they deduct the $40 from the total bill?

One question I need clarification on.  We have the UDP for an upcoming cruise and we are wondering how it is used at a speciality restaurant.  Let's say we go to Playmakers and we each have $20/day to use.  Does the $40 come off the total bill or is each person charged separately?  So if I buy $26 worth of food and my spouse only buys $12 worth of food are we covered, are will I be charges $4 for going over my $20 daily limit?

Well RCL has been sending us emails for the past 3 weeks asking for our final payment, even though it wasn't due until today.  We did pay it off early but we got at least 5 emails about it.

My question then is do you get the upgraded points for the higher category room?

I suspect the OP may have posted this because there was an earlier thread where somebody was asking where Navigator was. 

More of an FYI in case anyone wanted to have a look.  I know Navigator sales out of LA.

Just happened to check out the webcam and there it was.

...  Playmakers has awesome burgers and onion rings.  

Excellent.  I'll spend most of my time there then!

Considering flight attendants suggest you never use the coffee maker in a hotel room because of cleanliness, how clean are the coffee makers that are in your room?

Its hard to get excited about any league with only 9 teams and 6 make the playoffs🤣

I remember the lean years for the Bombers...but now we're riding high and I'm loving every minute of it until it too comes to an end.

Only in the CFL can you be on the 1 yard line, and call a long pass play 🙂 The endzone goes on forever.  

Keeps the defense guessing.

No bacon in this WJ that I have seen. Pork sausage and chicken sausage links. 

That’s it. Cancelling my cruise.

Hey Mum, I've had a lot of good wedge salads and this was super-lame. Had maybe a teaspoon of bland ranch, 5 microbits of tomato and a little bacon dust. Husband got the caesar and I agree, seemed limp and old. Not worth eating. 

 

Funny that I am tipping these behind-the-scenes people making these awful salads. That is just going to encourage them. 

Fun hack.  Take a zip lock bag to the WJ for breakfast and get a dozen strips of bacon and bring to dinner and add to your salad!

Im Canadian and i can honestly say i have never watched a CFL game ever. 

I watch USA college and NFL games extensively though.

I exclusively watch the CFL.  Longer and wider field and you have to get 10 yards for a first down in only 3 tries, unlike the NFL and 4 cracks at it.
