We have always used magnets to avoid clutter. Never seen the hook ones before but they look like being added to our list👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More weight if from the ceiling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grmmybtty Posted January 14, 2019 #209 Share Posted January 14, 2019 We’re one day ahead of you on the Sirena. Had a nice warm day in Miami and just finished touring Havana. Nice day, not too hot or humid. We took a walking tour of Old Havana followed with an old car tour of the rest of Havana and a nice lunch at a paladar with Blexie. Enjoy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go-Bucks! Posted January 15, 2019 Author #215 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Bob and ilsun....love the pictures!! Thanks for sharing. Enjoy Havana...the people are so friendly. Take some pictures. It's 3 degrees below zero right now so I'm living vicariously through all of you. Bought my final few things today so serious packing starts tomorrow. Luggage pickup is Thursday. Were the suitcases that you shipped in your cabin when you boarded? Also, has Oceania put on any parties or get togethers for you? If so, please share the details. ☺️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the suitcases that you shipped in your cabin when you boarded? Also, has Oceania put on any parties or get togethers for you? If so, please share the details. ☺️ The shipped suitcases arrived at my cabin from 1 to 2 hours after boarding. ATW passengers were called ahead of all other passengers for check in and boarding, regardless of cabin category. This may have been affected by our delay in boarding... not sure. As soon as we boarded, we were directed into the Insignia Lounge for a cocktail reception. The Captain and other officers greeted us, and the ATW hostess, Trish issued us our pins. There were some of the ATW passengers that for some reason, “fell thru the cracks”, and were not directed into the lounge, I learned from them later. I believe the ATW passengers boarding in Miami may have had a reception in the terminal, along with a contingent of travel agents and media invited aboard for a luncheon and tour. Perhaps one of them can answer that. Trish told us we would have another reception after Havana, where we will be presented with our commemorative jackets, caps, and bags.... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ORV Posted January 15, 2019 #223 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I love the old cars, especially that Pink Buick. I think it's a 55. I learned to drive in a 56 Buick. I'm not that old but learned to drive when I was 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
