We were on the CB on a sold-out Panama Canal cruise January 2023. The ship seemed crowded. And the MDR for dinner couldn't get its act together. Having to wait 20 or more minutes with a reserved dining time, we ended up reserving for 7:20 PM. Crooners is small with not much room to watch the performer. And our steward wasn't that great either. But we did like the wrap around promenade deck.

Ditto Too!

I believe he meant "Good Question".

With any wedding that I've attended lately, the gentlemen in the bridal party just wear nice suits. Of course, they're under the age of say, 35.

FOMO - Fear of missing out.

I live in South Carolina, and we call them Palmetto Bugs. But they're still cockroaches.

MY DH ordered Coq au Vin on the CB and sent it back because it was BEEF!

The Carribean Princess did not have the Riedel glasses in Vines this past January.

A "Welcome Aboard" greeting.

Don't forget the Stanley the Bear plush animal.

We had this issue as well on the Regal. We were next door to a family of six passengers. Supposed to be Mom and child in the mini suite next to ours and Dad and other three kids in the inside cabin across the hall. Well, you know it really turned out to be Mom and Dad in the mini suite and all four kids across the hall. The kids kept running back and forth slamming the doors at all hours. One day the Mom jokingly "apologized" for her kids' behavior, but never did anything about it. I never thought of saying something to the room steward. I'm sure they'd know it was us who complained.

We call it "The Prater".

Before we left for our last cruise, we went to the dollar store and made several small purchases to break up some of the big bills.

The salmon on the bagel for breakfast in the MDR starts to get old after a few days into the cruise. We avoid it later on in the cruise.

We loved that Caribbean Princess has the full promenade to walk around. However, Crooner's is so small that there is hardly any seating space if there is a popular performer.
