Covid definitely complicates getting seen anywhere these days. Feel better soon. 🙂 I am happy the iPhone survived though! 😉😇

Oh no, did you go get yourself checked out?

Wish they would go back to the old supplier.

We have also stayed in 7172 and heard the band most nights. It wasn't bad, mostly the bass. That cabin is over the stage which is why I think you hear more than 7676.

That option is listed as something that can be bought through the travel agency that had the group on the cruise. Additional options like that are typically only available to the group, not the ship as a whole. I know when there are music partial charters, the cruise fares that the group pay are considerably higher due to the added concerts, parties, etc. I know I have seen non-group people have asked on the ship to see a concert and the cost to attend was ridiculously high.

The cruise line was offering the kosher dining for sale to the whole ship, not just those traveling with that travel agency?

Nice cherry picking. Move along...

No where did I say that at all. Keep spinning...🙄

We always see lots of kids in the bars but usually at a table with their parents for trivia or nightly entertainment. I don't think it is appropriate for the kids to be sitting at the bar though. I know around where I live, kids aren't allowed to sit at the bar.

Just Google. I always search group cruise and my ship name and date to see if I can find anything out there. Many times it is just smaller groups like a wedding or a bachelorette party sailing. You know key words for this timeframe now, so search on those words and you will find a travel agency. There are other partial charters for music cruises and other themes, just do a little searching. I am trying to stay within board guidelines, not trying to be evasive. 🙂

Yes, this happens every year at this time. When sailing a 7 night cruise in January it makes sense to do some searching to find out what ships are having kosher cruises. Used to be on Anthem a lot out of Cape Liberty but Royal changed the January sailings to longer sailings in recent years so the kosher cruises have been going out of Florida.

Yeshiva week cruise with venues closed for Kosher dining.

We liked the bumper cars but haven't done them on our last cruises because there is too much head to head collisions. Most places we have ridden bumper cars make you go in a circle and kick you out if you do head on collisions. Last time we rode, there was a group of three that were targeting people, they would hit head on and on either side all at the same time. Crew did nothing about it.

We have sailed Anthem many times and Seaplex is always very busy. Post covid, not all the activities were happening due to social distancing and staffing. Quantum in Alaska definitely wasn't operating as usual when we sailed last May.

Have definitely seen SF maple syrup in little packets in WJ, CK, MDR and Johnnie Rockets. DH uses it. If it is not out, just ask for it. Don't know about jam/jelly. I have seen plain greek yogurt, not sure if it was fat free though. It was a brand I haven't seen in the past, not Fage 0% that I use at home.

Kate lives in the same building in Ft Lauderdale as Chef Ben and they were a "thing" in the past. The other guess would be Bobby. He also lives near Kate, is older than most of the guys on BD and an interaction between Kate and Andy on WWHL last night makes me wonder.

I have already seen a lot about the show online, including the winner, and one of the biggest fights that happened. That is why I might borrow my Mom's Peacock password. I don't think Kate's baby daddy is from The Traitors, I do think it is one of two people from BD though.

Watch What Happens Live was good last night too with Kate Chastain and Kate from this season of BD. I wish I could see The Traitors that Kate Chastain was just on but it is on Peacock.

LOL Might be time to hit that little refresh button and see if you can still get a ticket. 😄

Well, if his password is different he is hacked but he must have told you something different than what he told me.

Oops. 🙂 At least you know what you did. You can always ask him to decline the invite so you keep that account friendless. I have had a few friends get hacked, one actually this past weekend. We got friend requests from the account even though we are already friends. Neither of us accepted them as we knew better. The notification finally went away this morning and he has his account back.

Just be careful because sometimes that is a sign that your account was hacked. I would suggest changing your password to something you don't use anywhere else. If you can't change it, you are likely hacked and need to report and try to reclaim your account.

Request one from your travel agent.

We have stopped participating in slot pulls because of this issue. It has become a point grab for some people and is no longer fun. One rollcall had a slot pull all organized and someone joined a few weeks prior to the cruise and completely pushed the original organizer out of the way. She ran a terrible slot pull and ended up taking the money to a roulette wheel and losing it all. Another rollcall, someone joined week prior and posted on three consecutive rollcalls saying they would start slot pulls even though slot pulls were already organized. It was fun while it lasted but not worth it anymore to us. Good luck with yours. 🙂

Good to know there are controls now after the problems they had with all the independent TAs years ago. I remember reading stories here of people that lost all their funds and TA disappeared.
