busia1 Posted May 24, 2005 #1 Share Posted May 24, 2005 The brochure indicates that the Insignia has numerous board games in the Card Room. Would anyone know if they have Mahjong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andee Posted May 24, 2005 #5 Share Posted May 24, 2005 I've heard that there's a card version of mah jongg, which would be easier to pack than a cumbersome traditional set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwong Posted May 24, 2005 #6 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Ah, but then you lose the melodic click-clack of the traditional set!!! (try stuffing your shoes with the loose tiles - not only will they fill the "dead" space, they'll keep your shoes from getting crushed beneath the weight of your clothes!)

They would also make a very attractive belt.. and hey.. won't set off the alarm at the airport.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaCCruiser Posted May 24, 2005 #8 Share Posted May 24, 2005 "They would also make a very attractive belt" Clever idea, we could start a trend. Although Rummikub numbered tiles aren't nearly as attractive as Mahjong tiles, so I may have to switch games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busia1 Posted May 25, 2005 Author #9 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I'm sorry to hear that Oceania does not have a set of tiles. However, thanks for all your suggestions. I chuckled at each response! Card game version, stuffing the tiles in my shoes, etc. My husband already complains that my luggage is too heavy. That's all he'd need to see is me pulling tiles out of my shoes! And you're right, you need to hear that click-clack sound! Making belts?? Do they have an arts and crafts class on the ship (just kidding). So do they at least have a band or trio that plays dance music after dinner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwong Posted May 25, 2005 #10 Share Posted May 25, 2005 So do they at least have a band or trio that plays dance music after dinner? "After dinner" is a very broad time range aboard Oceania's vessels, given the assigned seating times for the premium restaurants and the five-course meals in the Grand Dining Room! If you can finish your dinner in a timely manner, there's after-dinner entertainment in the Main Lounge (e.g., a musical presentation or comic act), followed by dancing upstairs in the Horizons Lounge to live or recorded music. Given that you could easily spend two or three in the dining room, missing the entertainment, you can go directly to the Horizons Lounge and boogie off dinner!
