R&V

There are many of us who are eagerly awaiting the PCL Listings for Oct. 2017!

 

I agree, that's also our favorite month to travel.

Lets hope this becomes a yearly event.

I also was checking cabin availability this morning, I think Princess has a glitch in their program today.

Fireball and crème soda on the rocks, yummy.

Are the Seawitch bottles available in the bucket of beer promotion, 5 for the price of 4 ?

Wonder if suite passengers will be served breakfast at this new venue.

I have also pondered this as we travel at times with our daughter as a third person in our cabin. We currently are booked for a cruise on the Coral in Dec and the additional price for third and fourth passengers are $899.00 for a balcony and only $399.00 for a mini-suite. Make any sense???

You can go ahead and board the ship and after stowing your carry-ons go back down and do your shopping. This gives you a chance to check the security measures and also manage a lesser load...

I will be happy with an obstructed balcony especially since the obstruction is just that below the rail is metal. At least that's what people have said. Great to know Thrak and Colocruiser are going with. It is 15 nights. Love those longer ones. And yes, I will report back as soon as I know what we have😊

OK, so what cabin did you end up with, and hope your having a great cruise.

So on the morning of debarkation can I enjoy Bloody Mary's until they call my color??

I to like to pick up a six-pack from visited ports, especially if they are in different countries. Last cruise, June-14, they had set up a table and were reviewing liqueur purchases right after the x-ray machine, We just picked the most crowded gangway and than just walked past the table with the boarding masses and didn't have a problem. I'm sure our room attendant enjoyed the assortment of beers left in our cabin on our departure.

If you are not going on an excursion make sure you have a pocket full of quarters for the trolley into town, saves a long walk. Trolley also will take dollar bills but if you are a senior it's only a quarter for the ride.

Here is an example: After boarding after a wonderful day in San Diego, I went to passenger services desk and asked if I could view a menu for the evening in advance. The desk clerk, told me "What do you think I am??" Food and Beverage?" I went back to my room and immediately called her supervisor. This is just one example.........

Just a FYI for you, the evening dinner menus are posted next to the restaurant entrance doors each morning and are available all day for your perusing.

Take the umbrella, it can also be used for sun protection.

We once asked our waiter if we could have an old menu as a momento of the cruise, on the last night she presented us with a full set for all 10 nights. Wrapped and tied with a red ribbon and presented to us as a gift from her to us. Just another reason why we sail with Princess.

There's parking at 55 Francisco St, about a block from pier, They charge $18.00 a day for secure parking.
