sg1phileshipper Posted February 26, 2017 #28 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Thanks for posting, Robyn. Hope you had a wonderful cruise. [emoji3] In 8 weeks, it'll be my turn to try that wonderful food. [emoji486] Cindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khoff413 Posted February 26, 2017 #29 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Other recent Freedom cruisers have posted that the old menus are back. When you say it's the same menus, do you mean back to the old menus, or did you have the newer menus with improvement in quality? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamesEM Posted February 26, 2017 #30 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Thanks for the update, I don't how the food could have gotten any worse, Claire and I were on the cruise same cruise, nice meeting you, we are planning on sailing the Allure in May.

Fun2snorkel Posted February 26, 2017 #32 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Great news! I sure wish the Windjammer on the Grandeur would show a good improvement. Lately it has really been bad. We will be back on it in May and will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrobyn Posted February 26, 2017 Author #34 Share Posted February 26, 2017 How is Super Mario doing these days? Is he staying on Freedom for a while? Yes, he said he is on Freedom 52 weeks of the year [emoji44]He's great, and loves ship life! He sets himself up on the pool deck with his laptop and works from there....

ckrobyn Posted February 26, 2017 Author #35 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Did you spend any time in the pub? Who was the entertainer? James Brown was there in November. He sounded great WHEN we was playing. No, we didn't spend any time at the Pub. I did hear the entertainer and a jam packed pub in a very enthusiastic sing a long as I walked by [emoji2] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beej Posted February 26, 2017 #36 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Robyn, so glad to hear the Freedom is back to being the Freedom, after our last cruise (the same one as yours). We're booked for B2B in Dec, and it is good to know it will be the most favorite ship again. Have a great cruise. Let us know if Luggage Valet is back.

ckrobyn Posted February 26, 2017 Author #37 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Nice to hear from you Robyn, and thanks for the good news! Thanks! I needed to provide this update so hopefully those cruising on Freedom will be even more excited about it, especially in light of the negative comments around the food.

When you say it's the same menus, do you mean back to the old menus, or did you have the newer menus with improvement in quality? Thanks! I'm not 100% sure, but I see items on the current menu from both the "old" and the "new" menus, although my memory of the old menus could be foggy....

ckrobyn Posted February 26, 2017 Author #40 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Wow, there are a few of us here boarding next Saturday.:D:D Lucky you! I hope you are blessed with the incredible weather we had all 8 days [emoji295] Squeeze was closed last night, so I couldn't get an answer for you. I did ask at cafe promenade and they said "regular" juices, including fresh squeezed orange juice is included with the RR package. I had the RR package this week and made great use of it. The ease of getting all non- alcoholic beverages was great. If you are a coffee lover, the non fat lattes are amazing. They have switched from Starbucks to Illy Coffee in preparation for the summer season in Europe. Have a super cruise!

Rare BillOh Posted February 26, 2017 #42 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I knew what she meant.:) But we didn't feel compelled to correct her :evilsmile: I enjoyed all my food on Freedom back in 2015. I think it still remains my favorite ship, food as only one factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it still remains my favorite ship, food as only one factor. This is actually going to be my first cruise on Freedom. I love these 8 night cruises out of Ft. Lauderdale. In the past Independence and Navigator have been doing them. I'm looking forward to experiencing a new ship though not a new class of ship. I get a crystal block on this sailing too, a nice souvenir of the ship. I hope I like Freedom as much as you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freedom does have the Freestyle machines and added Sabor, I will welcome a chance to do 8 days on her assuming she is still there in 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrobyn Posted February 26, 2017 Author #45 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Thanks. So what types of non-alcoholic drinks did you try?And... have a safe trip home. My favorite is strawberry daiquiri and pina colada, but the mango colada is also delicious [emoji2] sadly, there was no banana anything or I would have had it. The mocha fraps and caramel macchiato were excellent fro the cafe promenade. I'm currently sitting in FLL wondering why no one is taking my drink order [emoji30] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freedom is excellent at recognizing milestones so I have no doubt the block will be delivered to you during your cruise [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWOL Posted February 26, 2017 #47 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Hi, Robyn. That is such good news. But I think that you mean 180. 360 would mean a full circle, or right back where you started from! ;) :D I understood that 180 would have been from good to bad and 360 from good to bad and back to good;p:hearteyes:;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a shampoo/body wash "dispenser" inside the shower stalls of regular cabins. Have a wonderful cruise!
