Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I have purchased several cruise Tshirts off of Amazon. Just look at the reviews to see if they are good quality. I also purchased a few from the Etsy shops and they have been great as well. Enjoy your trip.
  2. I love this name....Glitchy Cheers. 🤣 Just wish I had time to make a T-shirt for my 9/3 sailing. "🍹WARNING!!! I purchased the Glitchy Cheers Drink Package and I am a happy glitchy drinker.🍹"
  3. You are correct. I booked this upcoming cruise under DH profile as he had the better deal. I purchased the Glitchy Cheers logged in to Carnival under my profile. I tried the code logged in to my profile and it wouldn't work. I logged out and logged in to Carnival under DH profile and boom, it worked. The price went from $990.38 to $891.36. Savings of $99.02!
  4. This is exactly what happened to me too. Now what? I was ready to purchase today....guess I'll wait until tomorrow.
  5. We will be on the Glory Sept 3-10 too! We will be driving down from Dallas on Friday so we can spend some time in New Orleans. First time to visit New Orleans and first time sailing out of NO. I usually sail out of Galveston.
  6. That's great news! We sail the Jubilee in February 2024!
  7. I've gotten several nice items: lanyards liquid IV drink packets make up remover packets wash cloths for removing makeup Tylenol room spray for bathroom plastic straws baby plastic ducks fold up nylon tote bags candy beads lip balm shot glass hook magnet for wall I even got an airplane size bottle of rum one time.🤣 They are so much fun. I sign up to participate each time I cruise.
  8. You can also stop in Ennis at the Kolache Depot Bakery off HWY 45 on your way home. Very good Czech kolaches and it has a drive thru! Take exit 251 and turn left at the light. It is part of Doc's Beverages and Chevron gas station. Easy off and on and back on your way back to Dallas.
  9. True but a very good offer popped up in my email offering an inside room for around $400 plus tax and port fees in my email and since my daughter is a school teacher and limited when she can cruise I had to go for it. I usually don’t like to take 4 day cruise’s but this was the best choice price wise and time wise for us. I don’t think I would do it again but we made the best of it.
  10. I took my daughter and granddaughter on the Breeze on a 4 day cruise (6/1 - 6/5) and we experienced #2, 5 and 7. Bad service in the MDR and some, not all choices of inedible food. This was the first time in my 20 cruises that I experienced bad attitude and service in the MDR for dinner. My steward was nonexistent, the beds were not made into twin beds even though we requested it when we booked the cruise and called and asked our steward to make them into a king size bed which he never did (we managed though). Also had to call him a few times for room cleaning. We loved the house band each night in the Ocean Plaza, comedy club, CD and shows. I did see security around the Lido pool and they were telling kids to stop running and horseplaying. Embarkation and debarkation was very organized and we were off the ship and in our car by 8:30. We still had a great time and I was prepared for #2 as we were on a shorter cruise and school was out. Enjoy yourself and make wonderful memories with your grandkids.
  11. I've gotten a variety of cute items in the gift exchanges I've participated in. Shot glasses, chapstick, hair ties, hangover drink mixes, hand sanitizer, candy, gum, wickless candle in a can, key chains. So many fun things that we've gotten and If I don't use them, I regift them on the next cruise.
  12. I've participated in several gift exchanges and have managed a couple of them. I made a spreadsheet with the cabin #'s and the first name and last name initial and posted it on the FB group for that cruise. I also printed extra copies in case someone wasn't using their phone and they could get one from me if they wanted the paper version. No one said or cared about the list being made public on the ones I participated in. Hopefully this will help.... I know how much is involved in getting the gift exchange in order and it is a process that I don't think I will volunteer to manage again.
  13. Find a motel room on the Seawall close to Walmart. There are several in walking distance. I also think there is a Kroger on the Seawall and there are motels close to it. Hope this helps.
  14. I have only cruised out of Galveston and yes, you can check in anytime after your allotted time. However, they did not let us get in front of anyone and we had to go to the back of the line. 😏
