Smart branding decision for HAL - Oprah is popular and the company’s obviously hoping for her popularity to pay off for them.

Just about anyone can stay at a 5 or 6 star hotel or resort - whatever that is.
Usually it just takes money.

We sail out of Annapolis and when dining ashore at a nice place, we’ll usually be attired in “Chesapeake Dressy” - khakis, chambray or seersucker shirt, blazer, and deck shoes sans socks for gents and something matching that for the ladies. From the sound of things here, we’ll be OK in the MDR - neither too nor not enough.

In the MDR on Gala Night? :o
Well - I think that might be a little . . . forward.
. . . but by the pool - why not?

My thoughts on the comments regarding the wearing of bathrobes are exactly the same as an old friend of mine:
"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man."

This thread was funny before - now it’s getting off the hook.
Nudists, bathrobes, 6* resorts, puritanical mores . . .
But wait! There’s more!

Don't laugh but they have just recalled 220,000 pounds of Spam because of oral injuries. We wonder how Hawaiians will cope.

Ask...then let us know :)
I would hope that the Spam would be appropriately fried . . . with the pineapple cooked alongside.

I’m glad I keep checking this thread - it just keeps getting more and more weird.

Honestly I don't understand why there is a only one thread allowed re:tipping when other questions also get asked multiple times in their own threads and don't get combined. Who wants to read 1300 posts to find the answer to their question when about 3/4 of them are going to be fighting back and forth about whether or not one should tip at all? Maybe we could have a single thread about laundry, signature beverage package, is Veendam falling apart, etc?
How about a single thread for appropriate dress in the MDR?

I think it is bizarre that this conversation is still going on. Honestly, I had no intention of wearing jeans to dinner on our upcoming 18-day cruise, but now I CAN'T WAIT to pack a whole suitcase full of jeans.
I would take A Briefcase Full Of Blues.

You can shore dive from a dive op’s house reef on Bonaire without too much trouble.

As long as a bar has a bottle of Plymouth, some fresh Dolin dry, a bit of orange bitters, and the time for a 45 second slow stir, then I’d be happy.
. . . of course a nice long curly lemon peel would be great as well.

It’s been my experience from land vacations there at that time of year, you will find mosquitos on Cozumel in June.

What were your other possible actions you suggested? I must have missed them, sorry.

No one, no company will ever make 'EVE RYTHING' Right 'for most of us, thus not a welcome suggestion we should disassociate ourselves from HAL. After over 100 cruises with HAL, I shall no t be taking your suggestion seriously. :loudcry: ;p
Whatever - do what you want. I merely put forth a couple of possible actions. You can also just crab about stuff on internet forums and put yourself in high dudgeon with no apparent result other than to feel . . . something.

Come on. That doesn't even make sense.
Considering what I have read here, my statement makes perfect sense.

Who would you have picked for NS Godmother?

I’m OK with Oprah - I believe it was a corporate business decision based upon the previous relationship between the two brands.
That said - Whoopi Goldberg would have been another good choice.
