DaisyL Posted March 20, 2018 Author #126 Share Posted March 20, 2018 [ATTACH]416585[/ATTACH] Sent from my iPad using Forums[/ What is the entertainment currently in the Centrum? The Centrum has: Island Music with Real Vibes, Dance Music, Rock-a-Rokie with Celebration Band, Big Band with GOS Orchestra, String Classics with Rosario Strings, ‘Season’ Floor Show with the singers & dancers....so far. We were lucky to have St. Patrick’s Day this cruise so there was a big dance party that night in Centrum. I’ll add more as we go along.

Rare Rogueperson Posted March 20, 2018 #127 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Big Bob will be on board approximately 2 more months. They said the following CD is not scheduled yet. Same with the next Captain: not scheduled yet. And yes, Captain Ante did play his special music during sail away, so cool. Only 2nd cruise with him but he is the best Captain of any cruise we’ve been on Royal or otherwise. Sent from my iPad using Forums I guess I will have Bob as CD for my cruise. I'm guess i'm glad, because I was dreading having Paul Rutter again. As for Captain, my money is on Captain Thor. Ante and Thor seem to tag in and out throughout the year.

DELTABLUE Posted March 20, 2018 #128 Share Posted March 20, 2018 DaisyL..thanx for all the great info! I was just getting used to the sailaway music. At first it sounded like we were going to be invaded by the Russians.:eek: Now I'll miss it. Also enjoyed the commercial's his daughter used to do on the noon report. She was adorable and you have to admire his sense of humor in allowing her to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Captain, my money is on Captain Thor. Ante and Thor seem to tag in and out throughout the year. Gotta say I'm with ya about Paul.:rolleyes: Hope we're not out of the pot and into the fire, or should I say out of the dinghy and into the ocean. As for the captain, I thought it'd probably be Capt. Thor too but at some point they will have to bring in someone else to rotate with him. Capt. Ante will be leaving after 8 weeks instead of the usual 10 so that would mean Capt. Thor coming back early. As with all else, time will tell.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been offering very good deals to the specialty dining. Our benefit when not too many take advantage of the deals. Sent from my iPad using Forums We had Fitzroy on GR. I can't remember if it was last April or the October before. He's a great waiter and very nice guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DELTABLUE Posted March 20, 2018 #132 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Was just thinking back to when I was on Grandeur for St. Paddy's Day in 2014. Great festivities around the ship and lots of wearin o'the green. I particularly remember our Activities Manager who was decked out in shorts with green knee highs, a blinking green sequin tie, green tinsel wig topped off with blinking green deely boppers. He was quite a sight but what a barrel of fun! Anyone else remember Darryl Dyball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I’ve experienced the dullness of Paul so i’m willing to give Bob a chance. Also, I heard Paul is enroute to Quantum in Asia, so I think my fears might be quelled about having him again in April Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzoholic Posted March 20, 2018 #138 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Had so much fun with him. He was a great AD. Made our B2B memorable. Evie Sent from my SM-G900T using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DELTABLUE Posted March 21, 2018 #140 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Evie...yes that's him, and memorable fits like a glove!:D Nice to see your smiling faces. Did you make that vase of ribbon roses at arts and crafts on the ship? We used to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzoholic Posted March 21, 2018 #141 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Hi! Delta. Yes I did make the flowers. We were back in the office. Had a great 21 days doing the B2B after my retirement. You get to see the real person behind the work face and how they cope being away from their families. Jeff Arpin was the CD. It was like Abbott & Costello between the two of them. Made lots of crew friends who I miss. It was a great time. See you're many sailings on the threads. Take care and happy sailing.

DELTABLUE Posted March 21, 2018 #150 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Bummer about the Schooner entertainer.:( Wonder what the Customs issue was. I see that the Royal Chocolate Cake is one of the always available items. Is that possibly a renamed version of the Chocolate Sensation they used to have?
