Do they have Zumba by the pool on the mornings at sea? I enjoy doing this by the pool in the morning!

 

Enjoy the canal. It is a wonderful experience.

 

What they have near the pool in the morning they call Fun Fitness. I doubt it is a rigorous as Zumba but they are catering to the audience.

We missed much of the captain's reception due to really slow service in MDR. :(

 

You mentioned having reservations for MTD but are you at a table for 2 or a larger one? I really don't like long drawn out meals caused by slow service. Sorry you had this experience. ~Karen

 

We have been in a table for two but even with reservations there has been a long line each evening. Didn't experience this with Jewel or Radiance. Guess they haven't figured out MTD on Legend yet. :rolleyes:

It seems to me that I have heard that the first cruise post TA, some problems occur. Whether it's a new crew, or an old crew getting used to being on this side of the Atlantic, I'm not sure. It's no fun having a less than happy wait staff, so I hope it gets better for you ASAP!

 

I had an experience on the Brilliance just after it returned from being overseas for a few years.......I needed to find a drug store at our next stop (Portland, Maine). The medical department on the ship always has a sheet with the listings of pharmacies on their counter with addresses and phone numbers, so I picked one up. Long story short (and it is a long story!) - their listings were for Portland, Oregon! My Rx was phoned in to them, and (my bad!), I didn't realize the error until the gal at the Port Info booth in Portland, Maine pointed it out. Customer Service on the ship had basically no clue where we were!

 

I am enjoying this 'Live from'.....thanks so much for doing it.

I am so glad I found this. I am toying with the idea of this cruise sometime in 2015 or 2016, possibly on RC.

 

I'm planning it for a special occasion.

 

However, my next one maybe on the grandeur of the seas, which is also a Vision Class like the Legend. I get to see what its like through your eyes.

 

Thank you for the opportunity.

What time are you going to MTD? We are going on a Legend in January & have MTD. How long do you have to wait?

Marie enjoyed shrimp cocktail for the third night and said she is just getting started. :D

Wow Mr Bill. This thread is awesome! My wife and I are cruising the Panama Canal in March 2014. So your posts are both very informative and timely for us. Thank you very much, but don't forget to have fun!! :)

I too would like to know the show schedules. Could you post some of the day/evening actives.

Are those couch-like seats with bench seating in the theater?

 

Thanks so much!

We found that we always had to get to the theatre about 25-30 minutes before showtime on the smaller ships. We get there early, find great seats and read our Kindles while we wait and/or watch the people walking around and around looking for a seat.

 

What is always fun is watching the people who want to reserve a section of seats for people who feel they can arrive just before showtime and have their seats reserved for them... :mad: I am really surprised that most people just walk away when they are told that the seats are reserved. If it were me looking for seats and they told me that, I would sit down and tell the 'seat reserver' that there is no reserving seats and to call security if they don't like it... :cool:

BTW, spending a quiet afternoon in the cabin as the weather is bothering Marie a little. :(

Hope Marie felt better as the day went on. A quiet afternoon in the cabin can be a good thing too.

 

Hope the seas get smoother. :D

 

Thanks again for bringing us along "Live" with you!

They have been doing two shows a night. 7:30 and 9:00 pm

We were going between 6:00 and 6:30 but we figured out that it is flooded during that time with all the people that could not get the 6 pm standard seating. I guess most of the people on this cruise wants to eat early. We went at 6:45 last night and no line. But I still can get the guy running the MTD to reserve specific table at 6:45. Claims he can only guarantee a time. :rolleyes:

I'll look forward to hearing about Cartegna. I see your off the ship already.

What's the weather like down there. I was down there about 5 years ago in december on the Jewel, it was a sweltering 90 degrees with high humidity. I wasn't sure if that was normal, or not.
