jules815 Posted July 22, 2018 #151 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Good news! Crepes are included this week! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Oh my! That looks delicious! Are the crepes in the YC? From your other posts, I see you're a tea drinker. I am too. :D What brand tea do they have in the YC lounge? Bummer you couldn't get a kettle for the room. Enjoying your posts and scopes. Thank you!

I will get an actual pic later for you but it's Twinnings. I bring my own when I cruise[emoji4] And no gelato and crepes that I have seen yet in the YC areas. Loving your blog and scopes.

cruiseintoheaven Posted July 22, 2018 #154 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Loving this review! Curious as to how casual or formal people are dressing in the YC? Looks pretty normal during the day from snippets I’ve seen, but wondering about dinner in the YC in particular? And oh that crepe looked good!!

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last night (embarkation day) people were quite formal. The dress code was smart casual but there were still plenty of people in jeans and shorts. Today, lunch was also quite casual with many in shorts and t-shirts. Tonight is formal (elegant) night so I suspect that will change. Will post back about how dressed up it gets.

Lovetocruise2002 Posted July 22, 2018 Author #157 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Lunch Day 2 menu: Chicken noodle soup: Shrimp Fettuccine: MSC Signature burger: Lunch was great. We showed up around 1pm and there were only a few other tables there. All around pretty quiet. Food was good. Again, subjective but a bit on the salty side, especially the pasta. Flavours were delicious. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jules815 Posted July 22, 2018 #160 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Thanks for the picture of the tea bags. :) Twinings is fine, but I always carry my own too. I hope they have an English Breakfast with caffeine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cruisergal1208 Posted July 22, 2018 #163 Share Posted July 22, 2018 They definitely have a good product here to compete with RCI. There is no outlet by the bed though. Only a USB wall outlet. Maybe those who have experience with CPAP machines can chime in on how they have handled this. Sent from my iPhone using Forums[/quote Hi. Hubby uses those strong magnets on ceiling to hold extension cord up out of way instead of running on the floor. Plugs it in from desk. Hope this helps. Loving your reviews.

EMc&DrS Posted July 22, 2018 #166 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Do they still have those yummy truffle potato chips in the Top Sail lounge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare missthesea Posted July 22, 2018 #167 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Has Arthur told you yet that “sharing is caring?”, lol, as he advises you to split a dish to try? He is quite good at steering you the best choices, and will let you know if he feels you are choosing poorly! We were thankful the crepes were a long walk. We needed the exercise as we were eating so much in the Top Sail lounge. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovetocruise2002 Posted July 22, 2018 Author #170 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I wanted to make a correction to my comment t earlier from my scope about the crepes. Later this afternoon while getting Gelato, we overheard them telling another passenger that crepes were only included for YC, regardless of the drink package.

riclop Posted July 22, 2018 #171 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Loving your review as it brings me back to our YC experience. If you are by the pool area one of the pool guys OLIN from the Philippines is wonderful and can't do enough for you, he will move the loungers for you and get you anything you may want from the bar.

Arthur just told us at lunch that he is leaving September 29. Looks like you might just catch him as long as his plans don't change.

We took the day to explore the ship. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
