Rare skyking Posted April 18, 2005 Author #26 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Florida Chick- Yes there is a table on the balcony along with 2 chairs and a lounge chair. As far as the Captians table goes, I guess it is just luck:) Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciship Posted April 18, 2005 #27 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Tim, I noticed you have been on the Carnival PRIDE as well. Did you enjoy the Mariner as much as the PRIDE? We thought the PRIDE was outstanding. ciship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare skyking Posted April 18, 2005 Author #28 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Ciship- There is no comparison between the two ships, althought I love the Pride, the Mariner is the ultimate. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackMasterson Posted April 18, 2005 #29 Share Posted April 18, 2005 So glad you had a good time, and congrats on your wedding. My DW and I actually were married on the Grand Princess, so I guess you can say cruising is a big part of us :D . We leave for the Mariner in 10 days and can't wait! If we have half as good a time as you two seemed to, we're in for a blast!!! Thanks again!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Former Goalie Posted April 18, 2005 #30 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Congrats, skyking! We were on Mariner four weeks ago, we loved it! 1200+ kids, ours included! Probably not as many on your sailing. It looks like RCI has switched captains, who was your captain? Also, what were the sea conditions like the last day and night as you were sailing to Port Canaveral, what with all that happened with the Norwegian Dawn?

Rare skyking Posted April 18, 2005 Author #32 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Goalie- Actually Captain Olsen was still onboard, but was feeling sick that night and sent his second in command to dinner. Eliz- The limo company is great and very easy to deal with....Tell Liz I said HI:) Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bravjd Posted April 18, 2005 #37 Share Posted April 18, 2005 A question regarding ship's time in Grand Cayman. I have e-mailed RCI but they have not responded. Did the ship stay on EDT or change to local time? I have an independent excursion booked that will need to be changed depending on the answer. Thanks in advance.

mdmourges Posted April 18, 2005 #39 Share Posted April 18, 2005 My fiance and I are also going on Mariner for our honeymoon (2nd wedding for both). We are doing the 8/14/05 cruise. Getting married on the beach at the Swan in Disney World. 30 family members are joining us on the cruise. We splurged and got the Royal Suite. Tim, your pix get me really psyched! Congrats to you and your lovely wife. Mark & Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare skyking Posted April 19, 2005 Author #40 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Brav- On the Western Carribean you stay on ship time the whole cruise, which is Florida time. Hope this helps! Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcyjane Posted April 19, 2005 #41 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Congrads on your marriage, and glad you had a wonderful cruise. I too have been reading Radio's post and pics. Can't wait to see yours hurry!!! hurry!!! This is my first RCI cruise and we picked the Mariner, from all the reviews I read here at cruise critics and I can't wait to "Get out There" What deck and type cabin did you have. We will be in one of those hump cabins deck 8. Also did you do any spa treatments? Thanks, Marcy:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare skyking Posted April 19, 2005 Author #42 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Marcyjane- I am glad to see that you will be cruising on the Mariner, you are sure to love her. We had a JS cabin on deck 9 cabin 9608. I loved this cabin and it's location to all the stuff:) Made getting a diet coke refill easy for me:) We did not do any spa treatments, althought I told myself I would, but we got all that stuff done before the wedding and could not bare to spend the extra money. Have a wonderful time:) Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
