For those who have visited recently, I know my day will not be made better if there are stray dogs everywhere. Where do they congregate? I feel terrible for them, and am unable to bring them all home or feed all of them. Is this a recent occurrence? I had never read about the dogs in any report until one from last week's sailing on Oasis. I have seen the occasion dog but nothing that really stands out.

TimeToGetNauti Posted January 14, 2019 #102 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I was in Labadee back in April and I saw one at the buffet. Just read another thread from last week and that person saw 2. One of which was drinking someone's drink that was unwatched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw pictures of multiple dogs, who apparently hang out in the forest and then beg by the buffet. 13 minutes ago, TimeToGetNauti said: I was in Labadee back in April and I saw one at the buffet.

dreadpirate3 Posted January 16, 2019 Author #110 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Today is one of my last two days at work before vacation. Unfortunately, I have a 3 hour meeting today. My mind will be wandering. Forecasted weather for each port for our cruise. No parkas needed. For those not experienced with the weather in Florida and the Caribbean, those chances of showers will be either early in the morning or in the late afternoon. None of the forecasts show a completely rainy day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

island284 Posted January 16, 2019 #112 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Trivia - we were on the 8 day last week and saw a few trivia’s we had never seen before: Music through the decades, Say What You See, Tri Bond (seen that before), Foods Around the World. Also the typical Queen, Elvis, ABBA. There also was a Movie theme songs, TV Show Theme songs and Cartoon theme songs. Many General Knowlege trivia’s each day. So so if you like trivia, head to the Schooner bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmsoko Posted January 17, 2019 #116 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Anxiously awaiting your cruise too. We will be on same ship, same itinerary with family of 19 in March... Thanks for any tips... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadpirate3 Posted January 17, 2019 Author #117 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Absolutely! I will take some pictures and post as soon as we get to the port, on the ship, and to our cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadpirate3 Posted January 17, 2019 Author #118 Share Posted January 17, 2019 The ticket booklets and full page set sail passes of old are no more. Instead, we now have the mobile set sail pass. I did print one copy of each person's pass as a backup should technology fail. Our check in time is at 11:30, and we will be at the port by 11. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CntPAcruiser Posted January 18, 2019 #119 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Today was my last day of work as well. We are all packed and ready to leave behind the cold and snow in Central Pennsylvania! Regarding the Labadee and dogs question, we, too, have seen a few dogs here and there, but not large packs or anything like that. Most island ports we've been to have strays hanging around the populated areas looking for food. One of my favorite stories was from our guide on St. Kitts a few years back. He took us past his house on the tour and we saw his dogs lazily sleeping in the sun. One was named "Lucky Ba$tard," since our guide had found him as a puppy lying in the middle of a busy road and stopped to rescue him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a pre muster meet and greet? I need to see a Dr about a dog allergy. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreadpirate3 Posted January 18, 2019 Author #122 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Checklist: Luggage ✔️ Electronics ✔️ Car preparations ✔️ That is not the case for my beloved husband. He's good at speedy packing. My only stipulation is that all luggage is in the car tonight, electronics and backpacks tomorrow on our way out.
