Rare Sea Dog Posted March 17, 2020 #51 Share Posted March 17, 2020 So glad that there appears to be so many entertainment options for you on this cruise, cards, socializing and just plain getting some sun. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is wonderful news! I love to be able to light up after dinner. I admit, sometimes I prefer to smoke while the rest of my family has dessert, which I know won’t be an issue in this beautiful dining room!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mek Posted March 17, 2020 #55 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I can't wait to see the passenger list when the cruise is over. It's always so much fun to review who has been sailing with me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seacruise9 Posted March 17, 2020 #57 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) Hi, When I cruised on the Sun Viking, I enjoyed the various theme nights in the dining room. The waiters wore themed uniforms (for French Night, Italian Night, etc.). Also, the dining room was appropriately decorated for the theme each night with flags, crepe paper, etc. On some nights, the head waiter prepared Cherries Jubilee or Bananas Foster on a cart near our table. I'm sure that you will enjoy this on the Song of Norway. Enjoy throwing the streamers when you depart from Miami.

They’ll never fill those behemoths. I read a nasty rumor that they are going to be serving dinner in the BUFFET for the first time ever on a Royal Caribbean ship. And that there is no table service and no set times! NO SET TIMES TO EAT. Disgraceful on a ship from Oslo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal Caribbean Cruise Line mailed us a poloroid of our waiter for all three meals. I can’t wait to meet him! I can’t pronounce his name though. Early seating breakfast at 7:30; don't be late or it's fruit cocktail and coffee only for you upstairs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted March 17, 2020 #61 Share Posted March 17, 2020 On Sea Days they have skeet shooting. One of the very few things with any additional cost at all! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it will be nice and quiet, with nothing to distract us. Can you imagine how awful it would be if they started showing movies or the like? I do worry sometimes about being cut off from all communication with the rest of the family. I do remember being on the Canberra and having to go up to the wireless room to speak to my fiancée on the radio. He sounded like Mickey Mouse. Was really funny having to wear headphones! But at least I can really relax until I get home. Sent from my iPad using Forums I remember that one of the best things about cruising was the lack of communication with the outside world. Ship to shore was $25 per minute. Work did not call. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UGACamper Posted March 17, 2020 #66 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) Maybe Host Bob can come out of retirement and pin this to the top.

shipgeeks Posted March 17, 2020 #67 Share Posted March 17, 2020 You all seem so good at explaining cruising; perhaps you could reassure me on one other thing. Our tickets state that our dinner seating is at 5:30. Breakfast is available 8-9:30am, and lunch noon-1:30. It seems like a long time between dinner and breakfast, around twelve hours. Do people take their own peanut butter and crackers onto the ship? If you take a bottle of milk, is there a place to keep it for the week? I'm really apprehensive about being hungry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted March 17, 2020 #70 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I hear grabbing your wood or driver on-board is a common, if not daily activity. Are you going to drive your balls off the aft of the ship? 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
