George C Posted September 18, 2022 #71426 Share Posted September 18, 2022 6 hours ago, Sea Dog said: Ended up getting everything I wanted. Had to move my Izumi lunch to another day because of a private lunch. Shows were challenging because all the times I had researched were not the same. After about 30 minutes of juggling go most of the show’s scheduled. We had to juggle our UDP times a few times because of entertainment, but since we are in a suite we just let the concierge do it , she was in suite lounge , so we could get another drink or two while she worked at that . We are also diamond plus so we didn’t need drink package, we spent a couple of hours most nights in suite lounge . We almost always drink wine with dinner and UDP gives you a 40 percent discount on wine under a hundred, we were happy with that . Curious have you done Giovanni’s in the past ? If so how would you compare that to Jamie’s , next year we will do harmony which has Jamie’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes got everything I wanted. 1 hour ago, Ourusualbeach said: I may have missed this but what did you end up doing for lunch the first day? Chops was closed so we had to eat the Chops lunch for the Key in the MDR level 4. It was good and tasted like Chops quality. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really should produce a book with walking routes and pictures Thanks for the compliment Sue but the reason we do the walks is because of the books we have bought. Last summer I bought the latest edition of this one and we proceeded to do most of them. Then at the end of summer, DH bought this one for the relatively new Bondi to Manly walk - basically a combination of all the coastal walks we had done in segments to date. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironic then that neither he nor Harry were allowed to wear their military uniforms in the procession behind her coffin, but at least they corrected that mistake yesterday. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mistake, it was because they are no longer working Royals and not entitled to wear uniform, King Charles gave special dispensation for them yesterday.

I agree Debbie. My Dad was a career Army officer, retired in 1973. He wore his “dress blues” uniform for my wedding and was also buried in it. No special permission needed. Must be different rules either for foreign military or royals. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes, I’m very aware it was deliberate and not a “mistake” hence the irony of the insult from a man who never earned a medal. But good on him for his correction on the error of his ways and the generosity of his special dispensation. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broadwaybaby123 Posted September 18, 2022 #71439 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Sick here, so not much going on here. When I originally got sick, I thought "I'm going on a cruise in 3 weeks, I can't go on the ship like this!" It's been about a week and a half and I'm just starting to feel better. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in Andrew’s case, it was also because he was stripped of his military honors by the Queen due to the Epstein situation. It is good that Harry was allowed to wear his uniform, though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to be saying "mine! mine! mine!" 😁 I love the name Theo, but Baba "sounds" so at home. It is an endearment we used in our family and in some cases, they kept being called Baba long after they became grandfathers!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
