SilkySal Posted August 28, 2019 #501 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Thanks for all of the great photos orchestrated by Mother Nature! But maybe not so good of an idea to be out on that balcony to see it!😲 Wishing safe travels to all! Also hoping there's not another one following Dorian (since we board Allure on 9/8)!!🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been told the 5th night but want to make sure😊. Thank you! We asked one of the waiters and they didn’t know. They actually seemed surprised when we asked about it. Not sure if they were new, or just covering the WJ from another area. If we return I will ask again, but you might want to confirm that the 5th night is the night.

It looked like it needed a lot of maintenance because of salt air damage. Forget deck chairs moving, it’s the lawn mower first thing in the morning that will wake you. I will have to let you know how that lawn looks, up close and personal. That is the next Cruise we have booked. Thankfully, we will be on a lower deck, so the mower noise should not be a problem😁 I think I see our cabin on the port side hump area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scariest 45 minutes of my life. I escaped from Frances, but not Jeanne. Scariest 18 hours of my life. "The City Beautiful" my foot. Lesson learned, get out of the way when a hurricane is coming. Moved to New Hampshire, problem solved. I can deal with snow if I have to lol. Cruising is my escape. Just not during hurricane season. But I know it will all work out for Andrew and family. The ship can get out of the way, and that's what counts. Be safe. Where was your house in Charlie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only speculate but I’m thinking we won’t be returning on Sunday unless there is some miracle. We could fly home from Cancun, but who wants a taxi ride there from Costa Maya. To fly home from Roatan takes 26 hours so that’s not gonna happen. Thankfully our calendar next week doesn’t have anything that pressing. Sure school for Owen, but nothing happens the first week. Hockey tryouts are now known to be the week after. This post from some else’s past experience is starting to make me think bigger picture. I hope that isn’t the case but it sure doesn’t look like there is any way around it. For us, and folks wanting to board this Sunday. As I said numerous times, only time will tell. It kind of sucks to have this situation happen, the last day or day and half will be people trying to work on switching around airfare and booking hotel rooms, the trying to guess the acutal day and time you will return to the port....Just overall puts a damper on things. It can become a real PIA, it will really have fellow passengers on edge and it can get nasty......No fault of RCCL though, but people just don't understand that. They will will want refunds for everything.... Edited August 28, 2019 by Jimbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priszm Posted August 28, 2019 #509 Share Posted August 28, 2019 My parents were on a cruise when Hurricane Wilma hit Miami/FLL. They ended up with 3 extra days at sea because of flooding in the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently a hot front here at the pool. It’s hot. And then there is the chair hog situation. This row was taken at 8, when Lisa showed up. Still currently vacant at 10:30. Good chances of a hostile takeover sometime later. Kind of like predicting a Hurricane. I would have reported them an hour ago lol. Lisa has too much patience.

mchin Posted August 28, 2019 #515 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I am enjoying your live posts on Harmony. We are sailing her June of next year. I booked a cabana on South Beach for us during our stop....don't think they will be finished until the end of the calendar year. I assume the pool area is area open to everyone. I actually considered changing cabanas but not for $1,299. I'll stay on South Beach and walk to the pool or take the tram. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
