LuCruise Posted February 12, 2015 Author #26 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Breakfast in the Solarium... Park Café... Windjammer... Johnny Rockets... along with a donut and coffee from the Boardwalk... all in the same morning. Calories don't count on a cruise:D [\Quote] He he...I like that one...and of course, true.

slyster Posted February 12, 2015 #27 Share Posted February 12, 2015 my favorite thing has to be the Quest game. Followed by Love and Marriage and headliner shows. Oh and lounging by a pool earlier in the morning reading a book, swimming, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griffy116 Posted February 12, 2015 #30 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Looking out from the balcony (right after room service delivers my coffee) to see the new port awaiting me every morning. Watching the ship pull out of the port at the beginning of the cruise. Watching the pier runners (folks late getting back to the ship) at each port. The Quest. Not participating..just watching. Sitting and watching the crowd, just relaxing with a drink in hand. Hearing that ding when my Seapass card is swiped when I board the ship on embarkation. Sitting on the balcony, late at night listening and watching as we glide through the water, seeing the lights from a nearby island or a ship.

SewMuch Posted February 12, 2015 #32 Share Posted February 12, 2015 My favorite thing is having a nice dinner and a show every night, followed by drinks and live music. Makes every night of a cruise Date Night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuCruise Posted February 12, 2015 Author #34 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Love reading all the great responses. That Quest game (is it a game?) keeps coming up. And glad to see the MDR is a common response too. I'm looking forward to this every night too followed by a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted February 12, 2015 #35 Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) Thought I'd start a fun thread. What is your favorite show ,activity, or thing to do on the ship? . I may take some of the fun out of it. I like to take pictures of chair hogs and post that on cruise critic. :eek: One of my favorites used to be running a few miles on the track in the morning, but I think my body isn't going to allow me to do that anymore. Time for Shuffleboard I guess. Edited February 12, 2015 by BillOh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searoses Posted February 12, 2015 #36 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I love the ding,too...disappointed that the new regal princess uses a handheld gadget that has a much less satisfying sound......my favorite is the solarium....and naps....

bigque Posted February 12, 2015 #37 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I have every morning ritual of getting up just before sunrise and going out on the front of the ship to watch and take pictures of the sunrise! It is real peaceful and serene at that time of morning with usualy just a handful of people walking around the track! I also like to sit around at various times in different parts of the ship with my margarita in hand (lounges, pool deck, promenade, etc.) and people watch! There are other things I do and like to do but these two are my favorite! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sealeggs Posted February 12, 2015 #40 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Happy Hour in the Diamond Lounge :D Relaxing in the Solarium on Port Days :) I like your thinking!! Especially the Happy 3 hour in the Diamond Lounge. We enjoy the possibility of doing everything or nothing. Just what our heart desires. You are on vacation on board your favorite ship at this very moment. What else do you need. LOL. Sit back and relax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaribbeanCrush Posted February 12, 2015 #42 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I love threads like this that remind us why we love cruising. 1. I love the sail away and watching the skyline of the home port get smaller and smaller. 2. Running on the track or the treadmill- the view is great 3. Balcony time- reading, napping or watching the sea go by 4. Love and Marriage 5. Quest 6. Lounging in the Solarium (although we often have trouble finding open seats) 7. Breakfast on our balcony- we do this at least one time on every cruise 8. Trivia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjdixon4 Posted February 12, 2015 #43 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Sleep, eat, drink...repeat. LOL After that, probably Quest; some folks tire of it after one or two times. Me, nope. I'm always up for a good laugh...then I return to sleep, eat, drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drychi Posted February 12, 2015 #44 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I noticed several posters asked what the Quest was. I have never actually seen the Quest live, but I saw several Youtube videos of it. The Quest appears to vary from ship to ship, but it is basically a form of scavenger hunt/reality show using passengers who don't mind "performing" in public. I am looking forward to seeing it live in January on Liberty of the Seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since some have commented that they just watch, I assume this scavenger hunt is isolated to the room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RN4Nsy Posted February 15, 2015 #47 Share Posted February 15, 2015 1. The Quest 2. Love and Marriage show. (we were on it once, such fun) I love every single thing about cruising. The feeling you get as you step over the threshold onto "My Ship" is just wonderful, along with the "ping" your sea pass card makes as you are signed in!

LuCruise Posted February 16, 2015 Author #50 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Great responses. It gives me things to look out for that I wouldn't have known such as Love & Marriage game and Trivia (seems like a common favorite), and this Quest thing.
