  1. I've not found an inadequate number of bartenders on board. I have found bars busy enough that I would move onto the next one, but no general shortage.
  2. @2and2 and @Wishing on a star; I love that you're sharing and building your lists with me. I had the Remy Martin XO last night while we sat and chatted in Take Five. It really is nice. We had just finished a great meal at Sabatini's that ended with a Limoncello. Similar to the Limoncello, I felt the Remy Martin was such a nice flavor. Both really nice.
  3. I would drape myself in velvet, if it were socially acceptable. @Hello, NewmanI don't know about social acceptability, but they didn't turn me away on formal night.
  4. After returning to your deck chair, with a drink retrieved in five minutes, it's nice to have it refreshed in 20 minutes without having to stand up.
  5. Drinks are best served the way you enjoy them most. I like my bourbon on ice, I tolerate my wine cold, and I like my coffee as light as sand. Get your value whenever you have a chance to go on vacation.
  6. We checked this out on our morning deck walk. the main pools are the same depth at each. The temperature in the forward pool was probably 85F, the aft main pool was probably 80F. They were deeper at one end but had the same depth across both of these main pools. We also stopped in the retreat (adults only) pool and thought I was pushing 90F. It was very warm. It is more shallow though.
  7. They go down real easy. I really enjoyed it when I had it Crown Grill but I love bourbon, so the peach tea portion is maybe wasted on me. In Tennessee I have access to great peach tea and great bourbon. I typically keep them separate, one at work during lunch and one at home in the evening. My wife makes great peach tea.
  8. First cruise excitement is the best. You’re very kind, but we’re probably only funny because of the drink package. We’d be funnier if you were also imbibing.
  9. I know there’s always some interest in this.
  10. I was also looking for a more spacious and glass enclosed shower. I didn’t have as much luck as @New2cruise2022 . First, I couldn’t find the shower gel and shampoo everyone promised. Second, while I don’t love it to be steamy, mine was far too drafty. Lastly, mine ended abruptly when I was invited to return to my stateroom.
  11. No farm animals on this cruise. There are deck chairs to be had at 11:15am on a sunny sea day. #hogfree Full deck chair count coming later. Not kidding.
  12. We stopped in for 30 seconds last night. We’ll give it more time tonight when he performs again.
  13. We haven’t stopped at the juice bar yet, but inclusive fresh squeezed in the MDR is pretty nice. Is there a favorite juice you recommend?
  14. Menus are being added to the website. We’re building this cruise ship as she sails. Menus are PDF and searchable.
  15. We've got it started. We hope to be posting there all week long. You can find additional / faster content on IG or YT, just search the Super Value Bros. The PDFs going on the website will be solely hosted there.
  16. Princess Event Listings / Patter Day 1 Searchable PDFs available on external site at end of day (hopefully, link in bio)
  17. Lunch menu-Skagway. Food reviews coming. Menus will be posted to external site as searchable PDFs at the end of the day (hopefully).
  18. First of…so many we saw this in the live last week. I was so excited to try it. It may not be for me. I will try it again in a bar instead of the mdr. It tastes like melted mixed berry ice cream, until it doesn’t. I can see why people like it and will give it one more go later.
  19. Onboard before 11a. Some may think this is a waste of two hours. We would trade these two hours for even a single minute more onboard. We have 164 hours to maximize.
  20. A bit out of order, but zipped, snapped, ready to roll.
  21. We take advice from a seasoned Discovery cruiser like @startedwithamouse very seriously.
  22. Last night visited the oldest McDonalds in America. It was a great find from the birthday boy.
