momof2cruiser Posted November 10, 2014 Author #176 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Exactly the same for us, except that our savings would have been even greater if we had switched. I strongly considered it, but the lure of the long-awaited bowling alley balcony was too strong... You will definitely know for sure by the time of your cruise... I'm hoping people will report back ASAP, but even if they don't I am in that cabin in March and I will specifically let you know. Thank you, Adrienne!!!

Cyndi03 Posted November 18, 2014 #177 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I promised I would post some pics. We had a great time and enjoyed the upgrades. The staff was great, food was good and we had great weather. Not sure how many pics I can post at one time but will try to post a selection of what we took of the ship itself. We took a lot of these at like 4:30 am so some of them may look dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griz400 Posted November 20, 2014 #184 Share Posted November 20, 2014 We were on the Sun when you guys were still in port, the Pride was to leave at 4 pm when we did, what was the hold up ?? I heard you guys left almost at 8 pm. We are going to go on one of the last 2 cruises in march ... ship looked good in port , i think we was beside it in mexico or one of the ports, we have pics of it ... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmore cruiser Posted November 20, 2014 #185 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Did they fix all the wall paper that has the nipples rubbed off...lol Sent from my SPH-L720T using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyndi03 Posted November 20, 2014 #186 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Nope, they didn't fix the nipples! They actually didn't fix a lot of cosmetic things. There is some painting that could be done etc. But nothing that would ruin my cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyndi03 Posted November 20, 2014 #187 Share Posted November 20, 2014 They told us they were still loading that's why we left so late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerkelle Posted November 20, 2014 #188 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I've noticed the last two departures have left LATE...Just wondering if this is a common thing? We sail in 5 weeks and I am really hoping that we are leaving the dock when it is LIGHT outside! My husband and I were not in agreement about dinner if the cruise leaves the port late. I said that dinner would still be served on time in the MDR even if the cruise ship left late, he said that it wouldn't happen until the ship left the port. Who's right??????

They served dinner on time . After dinner the first night I like to go to the shops but they were closed . As for the ship leaving on time in the future . Hopefully they get thier act together . It was a new Itinary for the ship so hopefully it gets better with practice at each port . I was a little dissapointed with how the shi operated timewise but the ports and nice weather made up for some of the poor performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the more times they load, the better they will get. Legend and Paradise most always left on time. Yup we'll find out in 5 weeks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup we'll find out in 5 weeks!!! Even if they leave on time, it will certainly be dark when you pass under the bridge. From my experience, it is dark on the sailings following the time change at the beginning of November. It's still a great site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm0075 Posted November 25, 2014 #193 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Has anyone that has been on the ship been able to confirm that there are no changes to the bowling alleys? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fireishott Posted November 25, 2014 #195 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I belive that is a reference to the long balconies...but the deck plans show a line that was not there pre dry dock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cabins under us also had the bowling alleys as well as the handicapped cabin beside us. YES!!!! Thank you so much for this confirmation! We specifically booked 6232 for the repo next March - I've had a photo of that balcony taped to my office cabinet for months, dreaming of 14 nights of my own private balcony lounger. This makes me sooooo happy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hinestravel1 Posted November 26, 2014 #199 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Thanks Dive Master to finally let us know about your bowling alley balcony! We were booked in 5236 but decided to give it up on the last guarantee sale. Now who knows where we will be? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm0075 Posted November 26, 2014 #200 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Woot Woot!!!! I am so happy to hear that they haven't changed. We booked one and now I can relax. Thank you so much! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
