wolfganghowell Posted September 14, 2015 #376 Share Posted September 14, 2015 The staff was wonderful and friendly as always. I can’t say the same about the passengers. Dare I ask??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkvillain Posted September 14, 2015 Author #377 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Dare I ask??? Most of the rudeness happened near or on the elevators but there were also two disgusting moments in the pool that you probably do not want to hear the details about.

wolfganghowell Posted September 14, 2015 #378 Share Posted September 14, 2015 :D remember the periscope about a week or two before yours when they had a doody in the pool and had to drain it? Nope it was NOT a Baby Ruth. :eek: I try my darndest to avoid the elevators as much as I possibly can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginazgifs Posted September 14, 2015 #380 Share Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) Thanks! I think people periscoping on cruises will be the new normal so we should have a lot to look forward to. I hope it will be the new normal. I thoroughly enjoyed broadcasting and experiencing the live sharing from the Oasis, and I'm still enjoying the broadcasts, like yours, by others. It's like re-living the experience with different lenses every week.:D I'll be sailing NCL's Getaway in November. I've been asking around about the internet service on the Getaway and it seems that RCI Oasis class are currently the only ships with fast enough speed to support live broadcasting. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but based the the information I received from techies among us, it's not too promising that I'll be able to broadcast live from the Getaway. I guess it will be another year or two before all of the ships have high speed internet.:( Edited September 14, 2015 by ginazgifs edited to add endquote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 15, 2015 #382 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I used the DocScan app on my ipad. It worked really well. First you open the app, take a picture of the Cruise Compass, re-size it, fix the edges, fix the lighting and then save. Then I saved it to my photos on my ipad and then uploaded it to photobucket. It sounds like a lot but it really only took me a few minutes each morning. Was it the free app or the $5 one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare birdlord Posted September 17, 2015 #388 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Lol. I don't think anyone thinks that's okay. I get a little grossed out a bit anytime I enter a public pool. True -- me too. Thinking back, on my last cruise in Nov 2015, I got in the pool once for a very brief period of time the entire week. Frankly, the hot tubs freak me out even more.

I can't really get into Periscope - too many social networks to manage. I'll probably post most of my photos on my instagram. @Ladolchele if anyone wants to follow.

Yorkvillain Posted September 17, 2015 Author #390 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Oh man!!! Now I'm all skeeved!! lol. Was it on the Oasis or another ship?? I could be wrong but I believe someone was periscoping from the Suite Lounge on the Oasis and looking down at the sports pool when the "incident" happened. They do clean and sanitize the pools thoroughly when something like this happens. A few years ago on the Explorer, someone got sick in the Solarium pool. They closed the pool off, drained it, scrubbed the entire pool, rinsed it several times and then filled it up again with clean water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Yorkvillain: This is a great idea. so much easier to just scan them in every day with this app. I've scanned some in and saved them but I don't see an option to upload to iPad. What am I missing?

mon1jan1 Posted September 20, 2015 #394 Share Posted September 20, 2015 On your iPad did you use Tapatalk or the Cruise Critic app? Trying to figure this all out before my November cruise on Oasis. Thanks and really enjoyed your cruise review and pictures and Periscope videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually just used Safari to post on cruise critic. I've tried using Tapatalk but I don't find it very user friendly to do a live thread. I might have been doing it wrong though.

I look forward to using your technique the next time I do a Live review. It's really is much easier than waiting until I get home and scanning them in.
