Hate to tell you this, but there is another hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico (Yes, the Gulf of Mexico) heading for Florida and then out into the Atlantic. Will be an interesting week for cruises. If it makes you feel any better, there is rough weather in Alaska, making the last cruises of the season an adventure.

Would you be kind enough to post a list of the current Officers (Bridge and Hotel)? Thank You Hope you have a wonderful cruise.

(1) Team Trivia--Probably (2) Dining Rooms open for breakfast and lunch on Sea Days (3) Yes--Freestyle Dining-- come and eat when you wish-- no reservations for the MDR's

The last two Christmas cruises I was on served turkey dinners including Green Bean Casserole. Asked the F&B (who was from Bulgaria) about it, said that was what was in his menu book. When I was growing up: Thanksgiving -Turkey, Christmas- Roast Beef with Yorkshire Pudding, New Year's-Ham and Sweet Potatoes

The ship will be decorated for Christmas. On Christmas Eve, the Hotel Management team and other Senior Officers will go Christmas Caroling throughout the ship ending in the lobby with passengers and other crew members is a Christmas Carol Sing-A-Long. There may be a special Christmas program in the theater later in the evening on Christmas Eve. A traditional American Turkey dinner will be served Christmas day in the restaurants. New Year's Eve there will be a number of parties all over the ship. It is a great time. The Freestyle Daily will give you show information each day, you can adjust your dinner reservations as needed. Christmas is a wonderful time to be aboard an NCL ship-- Enjoy

Just paid off the Aqua's Transatlantic. Not looking forward to the long flight from Seattle, Washington to London. Can not wait for the cruise.

Yes, Check your Freestyle Daily for time and place

From all the reports I am reading, according to spokespeople for the Longshoremen's there will be NO affect for the cruise ships.

Where will you be on the 1st of November? I would check that city's website and see what it says. It might give you a listing of some churches you could research for times of services.

Yes, some people bring Halloween costumes. Day of the Dead is much more of a religious holiday. I am assuming that if you are in port of the 1st of November, there should be lots of churches having services. There might even be a parade. I have never seen anything on a ship for the 1st of November. Halloween Yes

I love these dinners. Makes no difference to me what the rank of the Officer hosting the dinner. In 30 plus dinners, I have yet to be disappointed. My very favorite Dinner was hosted by the Ship's Communication's Officer (Radio Officer). That night he was hosted his 1st Officer Dinner. Very kind young man.
