Look forward to your final thoughts. Andrew, when I watched this video Owen came to mind. it's long but funny. Did you ever mic Owen up? https://youtu.be/A3-L3YwU-iQ Robin, thanks for a fun week!

Sunny AZ Girl Posted February 24, 2019 #754 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Thanks for the Live Review! We have sailed other ships in this class, but this October will be our first cruise on Adventure, when we go on the "Snowbird Migration Cruise". We have one of the new 1L Panoramic Ocean View cabins, also a first for us. Your report has made me even more excited about the cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KmomChicago Posted February 24, 2019 #757 Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Since you’ve provided such great advice Robyn, I have some for you. 1. Don’t get off the ship. It’s not better on this side. 2. No, that’s all. Thanks again. Live reviews are fun but the sort of “companion” dual live with John over on AdOS’ sis Oasis upped the factor even more, not to mention the usual suspects participating. I was home sick part of the week with what certainly felt like the flu, which DH and DM have now. You brought cheer and brightness when I really needed and appreciated it. Each time I checked in I caught up on your movements, the elusive Bob sightings, Ocean Boy’s tracking reports, and your many loyal followers. Great time. Even though we’ll miss Jackpot, I believe, since we’ll have only 6 nights, I’m thoroughly thrilled to be climbing aboard fairly soon. Glad to hear about the food, not that it’s really good news as I’ve never controlled myself regardless of the quality or choices and hardly need more temptation. Welcome home. Aww, how cool is it that this is my 1,000th post on Cruise Critic? Edited February 24, 2019 by KmomChicago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrobyn Posted February 24, 2019 Author #768 Share Posted February 24, 2019 The coffee included in the refreshment package is definitely Starbucks on Adventure. I have to say that my morning latte was perfection every day, and the “coffee guys” were amazing and remembered my order 😁 I usually describe my latte order at Starbucks as “it’s complicated” 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_G Posted February 24, 2019 #772 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Nicely done. I don't know how you, Andrew, and John (and others) find the time to take us along on your trips so if we cross paths we at least owe you a cocktail.

LuCruise Posted February 24, 2019 #773 Share Posted February 24, 2019 10 hours ago, ckrobyn said: Okay. Final thoughts. My Cabin - I always have a balcony, so cruising in a Promenade cabin was an adjustment. I really like the cabin, it’s perfect for a solo traveler, a lot of space yet cozy at the same time. Water pressure in the shower was great. My cabin is 7293 located above the jewelry store. Entertainment - The shows haven’t changed on this ship in about 8 years 😳 I did see the comedian, he was very funny. The Quest was hilarious. Cruise Director - I really like Ken Jones, and it seems as if he is well liked by his staff as well 😁 Special mention goes out to Isaac (CD staff) he was absolutely hilarious all week. For anyone who’s sailed recently and caught the 70’s show, he was the Indian from the Village People 😂 TV in cabin - THERE IS NOTHING TO WATCH. Worst selection of channels. I don’t typically watch a lot of TV while on a cruise, but when you have your own cabin, it’s nice to watch a bit before bed. If I see the “wash your hands” video one more time....uuuugh, total ear worm. I think that’s it for now. Please feel free to ask questions. My flight home isn’t until tomorrow evening so I’ll have plenty of time at FLL to respond. Thanks to you all for sharing this cruise with me. I had the BEST time! 💕 Funny as our kids commented the same thing about the TV on Mariner (same class as Adventure)... 🙂 And yeah...same thing about the promenade room on Indy...didn't bother us as the odd clearing of the throat form the guy next to us (and otherwise quiet), but agree with you. The 70s parties are fun. We had room similar to your where you can see that bridge and the singers pointed right at us from our room. Lots of fun. Great review...really like following and looks like you had a great time, both with friends you met onboard and with keeping in touch with others. Safe flight home.

I would add "in the room" to this description, i.e., there's no leaving the venue to fetch things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted February 24, 2019 #775 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Robyn - just a little heads up. The weather here on the south shore of Lake Ontario is going to be bad today. I imagine Toronto may be getting some of the same? Winds will be gusting to 75 mph today and overnight. If your flight isn't until this evening, you might be facing some delays. Have you spoken to anyone from home to see what the forecast is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
