I know there’s been a lot of discussion about what to wear to the MDR but I shall be voicing my displeasure tonight about the new dress code that RCL has implemented for the crew, I’m wearing my ball gown and this is the attire I have to look at?!? I do believe my waiter looks familiar, think I’ve seen him on my previous cruises. Oh but a new personal touch which I’m ok with, the waiter actually gets to sit down and eat a meal with you! Getting to know my waiter, Elbo from USA. This is absolutely pure gold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You picked a great ship and I’m really enjoying your review. I don’t know what I was thinking but I strayed from cruising Royal and am stuck on the Pool Algae Queen. 🤢 What a rust bucket! My waiter is nowhere near Elbo’s caliber and there is no pool boy to attend to my needs. AND THE CASINO HAS ONLY ONE, YES ONE, SLOT MACHINE!!! Thank goodness they at least carry one of my favorite beers since I’m not a fan of Corona (even with lime). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me when I tell you embracing color is a big deal for me and it’s just a few pieces that I take on our trips. Well you need to embrace color more often it looks great on you!! I'm laughing and really enjoying this and reading it while showing my hubby the pics while he is watching La Lido Loca on the you tube. This made my night!! We were on the 4/6 sailing on the Enchantment. We are enjoying the time at home with our 3 teen boys though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am however definitely intrigued by that slot machine. Is it distributing TP or paper towels? If it's TP that's an ingenious way to conserve considering the present shortage😀 Try to enjoy the rest of your cruise😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three cherries 🍒 only paid out with 2 squares! My cruise is going down the crapper! 😡 So happy Ukigirl is getting the Royal treatment she deserves on her cruise and hoping she will let us know about more of her port stops and excursions.

I have good days and bad days just like everyone else but trying to stay optimistic and feel blessed that everyone in our family is healthy and has been able to keep their jobs, except for me. 25% of Michigan is unemployed and luckily my husband is still working, the curve is slowly starting to flatten as long as everyone stays home. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad you came back and posted something @Ukigirl. I was concerned you had come down with a virtual case of COVID-19 on your virtual cruise. Thanks again.....this was very entertaining. Hope you and "the waiter" have a wonderful life! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be on Independence right now, this was to be my first solo cruise (with Elbo’s blessing) and I was looking forward to doing a live thread. We’ve been doing our best with social distancing, my boss just closed for the next 2-3 weeks, Elbo still goes into the office though I think he will start working from home soon. We miss our adult kids terribly but this will pass and can’t wait for our normal lives to resume. We’ve got an October cruise scheduled so keeping our fingers crossed for the actual sail away. Love to all of you and stay safe! Liberty coming up Oct. 18th hopefully also! Boy will we all be ready for some sailaway! It could be the biggest booz cruise we've ever done!

Sarnia 432 Posted April 18, 2020 #146 Share Posted April 18, 2020 For those of you interested, there is a virtual cruise in the Australia and New Zealand forum. It is looking like a lively cruise to take or follow along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
