  1. And having stayed in a Terrazza aft for 2 weeks, I can say it goes from Ghostown during the day when it's restricted to full after 7 when it's open to all.
  2. Some of my views this month while enjoying Thermal Spa on K'dam. Equally relaxing with 🧊 floating by.
  3. DH has that effect on Dallas Stars🏒: DH snoozing; Stars 6, New Jersey 0. DH wakes up, sees scores & makes comment; Stars 6, New Jersey 1. DH now going to bed so we can finish winning this game😉
  4. Although you still have some days to go, what is your current impression of HAL?
  5. No, you cannot get credit for cruises you've already taken; it wouldn't do ypu any good - it's OBC that is only used to spend onboard per booking, not something that goes into your Carnival account. If you submit your proof of ownership per the policy, you can still get it for the upcoming cruises. To find people to do things with on specific cruises, you should sign up for those roll calls. There will be one for each cruise, so you'll sign up multiple times. Safe travels - enjoy your cruise!
  6. They want you leaving with a good memory 😊
  7. Really enjoyed your Farewell Tour (the "walkabout" as you called it plus this entire LIVE). Enjoy your final evening, safe travels home. And thanks again for bringing us along. Once the masks are safely nestled into their permanent homes, please post pictures so we can see them both (the 2nd one is a mystery to us all) 😊
  8. Thanks @sunviking90 for jumping in - looks like @Hogladyrider should be good for a fabulous day in Oahu HI! BTW @Hogladyrider I love seeing all the K'dam cruises in your signature on those other LIVEs 😉
  9. Awe - sounds like a Grasshopper training moment in the making. If I have to mention Karate Kid, it ruins everything 😤
  10. Awe Holiday was my very first cruise waaay back in early 90's. It had an adults only topless deck. And no crying @MeganGC1983 you're having a great time!!
  11. Hey - that is the one port I did a ship excursion. The excursion lines are under cover then they took us directly to the bus, so I didn't have an opportunity to look for/at other transportation. And not having a window seat on the bus, I wasn't able to see anything. Wish I could answer. I look forward to hearing about your adventure and seeing some pictures.
  12. That doesn't sound right at all. At the time you buy CO, there isn't an upgrade offer - you select the actual cabin you want. HAL can still send upgrade offers later, but that has nothing to do with CO.
  13. I like the easy unpack once home - straight from suitcase to dresser or closet, no pit stop through washing machine.
  14. Looks like you all had a great time - thanks again for bringing us with you. Safe travels 🚙and remember there's warmth in numbers, so huddle up.♨️
  15. I had no idea what to expect when we saw it on our Rome r/t itinerary. I had not been and didn’t know anyone who had been, so we just went in fully open to whatever came our way. If you're into pasta, that's your place - fresh made pasta for sale everywhere. Very pretty so nice to look at w/the different shapes and colors.
  16. I have seen a few posts about Dec cruises not posting, but the 2 I did I can see in my cruise history. One started in Nov, ended in Dec. The other started in Dec, ended in Jan. I don't know if that makes a difference 🤷‍♂️ They were on different ships - NS and K'dam.
  17. Welcome back to HAL! Yes you will get "nudged" to check in, which you can do any time after booking. The boarding pass you need will have a barcode on it even though you'll see a preliminary before then.
  18. Acceptance is so important - it deserves to be recognized; I'll celebrate butternut crunch any day, but cheese I'm very picky about (I like harder cheeses, not soft gooey ones). Definitely pass on the meal, would try the drink, yes for the wine. I l🧡ve Bari - we were there Nov 5 2023 on the last sailing of Nieuw Statendam before she went into drydock. Today's days in history are important. Currently 21° headed to 39°, feels like 10° - it's cold! Rain supposed to start tomorrow night. Prayers and positive thoughts for all. I took sooooo many pictures in Bari, it's hard to select only a few. We had great weather 🕶️ and were not the only ship in port. The architecture was amazing. Zoom in on the clock at the top of this building. It seemed to be "Hang Out Your Laundry Day" - we saw so many lines of laundry drying.🧦🩲👖 I didn't go in this shop, so I don't know what it sold - I just liked the planter. Bari likes its flowers - There were planter boxes on a lot of the buildings. We had the best pizza in Bari that we had the entire trip, including Rome. Many of the streets had arches. Some led to little produce or pasta stands. We were told the curved white rock lower left at the corner by the green pot was to discourage people from peeing on the streets - a "splash gurard" of sorts. One of the cathedrals. There was a museum inside a church - these were on display. Many of the buildings are marked - this was near the church museum. This place is for sale if you want to own a piece of Bari. One of several statues we saw. We didn't have a long day, arriving at 7am w/All Aboard at 5:30, but we packed in as much as we could. These look like sunset pictures, but the sequencing of them would make them sunrise, hmm. 🤷‍♂️ Regardless, it was a beautiful view from our balcony on the NS.
