IECalCruiser Posted December 24, 2015 #201 Share Posted December 24, 2015 DW is a coffee drinker and she thought the coffee from syrup was pretty good. She usually uses a coffee card for fresh brewed coffee but didn't need it on this cruise. On the galley tour I saw a couple of Nescafé Alegria V-Cafe machines so at least on the Pacific the Princess coffee must be made from Nescafé concentrate.

ibfern Posted December 24, 2015 Author #202 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I love Nescafe much better than Starbucks! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san diego sue Posted December 24, 2015 #203 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I also found the coffee okay. Used my coffee card when convenient but mostly for Capuchinos or frozen Mochas. At dinner and at the buffet, the syrup coffee was fine. Loved those frozen Mochas. Irving the bartender made the best ones. We asked Irving how he got his name, after all Irving is really not a Mexican sounding name. He said his Mom liked the name. My husband spoke Spanish to him and he really was surprised. My husband's College learned Spanish was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaisyRose Posted December 26, 2015 #204 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Near the beginning of this thread, someone mentioned there was a Q & A with the Love Boat celebrities, and it was interesting to hear about the twists and turns their lives took. I would love to know about some of those twists and turns. Can anyone that was at the Q & A tell us a little about that? I hope it was all good!

Did you meet Raymel, the bartender from the Philippines? That's a different name too, and I could never remember it until he told me it's from his father's name, Raymond, and his mother, Melia. After that I never forgot it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wehwalt Posted December 27, 2015 #207 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Can anyone confirm if the Love Boat crew members were playing trivia regularly? Although I was there, I really wasn't paying attention to that sort of thing, except seeing Ted Lange come in once with his tablet, but I thought he sat in one of those two-seat tables by the window and wasn't playing.

I can confirm he did not want to join in when asked, preferring to spend time with his coloring book and crayons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted December 27, 2015 #209 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Can anyone confirm if the Love Boat crew members were playing trivia regularly?They played trivia with each other. We sat very near them in the Sterling Steakhouse on the second night and they were playing trivia with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibfern Posted December 30, 2015 Author #210 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I did a review of the cruise and its is published here: http://www.cruisecritic.com/memberreviews/memberreview.cfm?EntryID=521398&et_cid=2531924&et_rid=10432079&et_referrer=Boards_Million_Member_Newsub Hope everybody has had a Merry Xmas and is planning a great New years ever celebration. I know that I am going to REST since I fell off my grandson's hoverboard! I learned how to ride it inside clutching onto the walls of the kitchen, then when I thought I could I got on it outside--I was showing off and wanted my grandson Drew to think his grandma was a cool chick, so much for that! I'm done with showing off, LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
