  1. Seems to be a hit or a miss on be allowed to take out to go containers on what you can't eat. Seems weird that all ships wouldn't allow you to take it with you rather then throw it away. This thread got me hungry think I'm going to go book it on our next cruise. Thanks
  2. When we did the remodel for the kitchen , we also got a Ge Profile: GE Profile™ Series ENERGY STAR® 27.7 Cu. Ft. Smart Fingerprint Resistant French-Door Refrigerator with Keurig® K-Cup® Brewing System It's great for just the 2 of us, have had no problems with it, in less when we have company we have to bring up ice from the downstairs refrigerator since the new one just can't make enough ice quick enough. The holding bucket just isn't that large, for our model their was no option for a second ice maker. Not a big deal. Our's does make Coffee with the K-cup machine in the outside door where you get ice and water, t which is nice. So far that is still working perfectly. Home Depot salesmen did say" Whatever you get just stay away from Samsung Refrigerators, lot's of problems, you don't want one of those."
  3. 9260 is available now if you wanted the center cabin, next's to yours to switch to on Greenland cruise. Balcony is a tad deeper.
  4. Thanks, My Wife and I love the fireplace now. Such a huge change. My Wife is only 5ft tall, so the placement of the Microwave was a big deal. My Wife always had trouble using the microwave we had overtop our old electric range. So by putting the Microwave/oven where we did allowed us to put it in a lower position. This microwave also opens from the top down and not left to right like most over the top range type microwaves do. So it was important to get it in the right height so she can use it. It's perfect now, in the drawer below the microwave we keep hot plates, so they are in a handy position. My Wife picked out the vent cover on Esty, looks much better then the original metal one. Our contractor paint matched it to the cabinet color and put 2 hinges on it so I can just open it like a door and change the filter inside. Very Easy! https://www.etsy.com/listing/1153157473/return-grill-cover-air-supply-cover?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=829911177+return+grill+return&ref=sr_gallery-1-7&frs=1&cns=1&organic_search_click=1 My Wife and both love cooking so this kitchen gives us plenty of room to both work in it at the same time. .I told her we can't keep worrying about getting it dirty so we just clean up messes as we go. So far that hasn't been an issue keeping it clean. Finding the brick floor is also very forgiving too, once a week I get out the vacuum cleaner with a hose and brush on the end of it and vacuum up any crumbs, etc.
  5. Thanks, it was very time consuming process. Lot's of worrying will we get the exact look we were looking for or not. Are all the colors right? etc. Really it's a total transformation of the area. It's a whole different vibe when walking through the front door now. We think very much updated now with the look compared to how it was somewhat outdated before. That huge wall between kitchen and living room area, just had to go. 🙂
  6. Wonder what the reasoning was to shape the bow like that?
  7. Why wouldn't they change the funnel? https://www.cruisehive.com/two-more-costa-ships-to-join-the-carnival-cruise-line-fleet/74682
  8. I think she got the great eye from those countless hours of home makeover, reno shows we watch on Tv. 🏠 🧐
  9. Before and after shots of our Kitchen Remodel...........I believe now we are completed. Like to thank my Wife for wonderful job picking out styles and colors of everything. I really think she hit on all counts. There is not much at all we would do different. Wasn't the fastest reno every done I'm sure but being patience sure did pay off. 🙂
  10. When I was little we used to go to my Aunt and Uncle's house in Hammonton, NJ it was about 25 miles straight down Rt 206 South from where we lived. We went there every Sunday in the Summer time, My Aunt made such the greatest Gravy. The house smelled so good each and every time. They also had cherry trees there, always went home with a full belly of fresh cherries too 🙂 Hammonton is a real Italian town. It's also know for it's Blueberry Farms, but there are a lot of Jersey Tomatoes there too. https://njmonthly.com/articles/jersey-living/njs-most-italian-town/
  11. I really thought the corner aft on deck 7 was a lot smaller, really it's very much like the one on deck 9, just a little narrower.
  12. I think that lady playing volley ball in the 1st picture left her room with no shorts under her dress.😉
  13. Agree, That is what we are going to do, lock in the night and time we want with no worrying. Makes no sense to do it once we board the ship and hope we get the day and time we want.
  14. But don't the Uber drivers still have to wait in the same long line to get into the port like the rest of the passengers who drive to the port. Some say it can be 30 to 45 minutes to get to the drop off , pick up area. from Rt 440. Uber drivers and taxi's can't by pass the long line to get into the port can they? Will an Uber driver accept a 3 mile trip when he could hold out for a person who wants a ride to one of the airports?
