Also, if you do lunch in CC....Ricardo makes me my favorite lunch: Guacamole, Pico De Gallo, and tortilla chips. Enough to share with everyone (but I ate most of it by myself). Thanks for allowing me to ride along on this voyage. Ahhh, love this cruise. Edited April 7, 2022 by cr8tiv1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seabass and filet are excellent. You must have the better cake for dessert. To. Die. For. Great wines and all reasonably priced for the South Bay. I’m very happy with our suite. Note though, our balcony on the Royal Class ship was not nearly as nice! Lol we have enough love that the restaurant doesn’t need to provide romance. Great food and fun ambiance is what we are looking for. Thanks again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a big open lot but it is gated and feels very secure. We found the way in with no problem and could see our car from the ship. I will miss the covered parking we have done at the hotel but will be very happy to walk off the ship and get right in our car Thank you for this information. I hope you are just loving your time at sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenie082756 Posted April 7, 2022 #109 Share Posted April 7, 2022 DH and I are also on this cruise. The Medallion app on this ship has issues for sure. Last night dinner at the Crown Grill was very good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cr8tiv1 Posted April 7, 2022 #110 Share Posted April 7, 2022 @greenie082756 head to the medallion desk by photos. As they to install “Ocean Concierge” as a hot button on your home page. It’s works better than the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the real photos I could find, it looks fairly covered. It is one of the more shallow balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HBCcruiser Posted April 7, 2022 Author #112 Share Posted April 7, 2022 We saw the show “Sweet Soul Music” last night which I thought was great. All the dancers and singers were good. Afterwards we sat in Schooners and watched the piano player. He sounds like a mix between Elton John and Billy Joel. Great fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HBCcruiser Posted April 7, 2022 Author #113 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Day 4 Patter; This morning we hope to be up in the Sanctuary if the clouds go away. It seems to be partly cloudy so hopefully it will clear. Then it’s the pub crawl at 3 and Chefs Dinner at 6:30. Time to get some coffee and breakfast.

I found the website, got the costs, read where someone said a month pass actually is cheaper than per day——great tip! It's cheaper, if you stay at DoubleTree before the cruise. Free parking (in an open lot) for the length of the cruise. We did a 42-day B2B and one night in the hotel. IIRC cost at the time was around $200. 30 days in the port parking lot would cost ~500-600! Yikes!! Free ride to & from the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Receptionist said we're grandfathered in for the free parking. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They started this a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for the heads-up. I called DT and they confirmed. However, we're grandfathered in for our cruise this month. I'll miss staying at the DT.

That will not go over very well with guests who have counted on this service for years. If that is the case... The Pier is a better option. Maybe the DT doesn't want to service cruisers anymore. Pretty dumb move, if you ask me. $15/day vs $20 at the port with no hotel/meal costs vs Vagabond $10 vs Crowne Plaza $12. We're grandfathered in for our next 2 cruises, then likely start looking at that monthly pass or a cheaper hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crooners not Schooners, although I really had fun with the piano sing alongs at Schooners!😂 In my defense we did just get off the Navigator not too long ago. I need you two here to keep me on track! 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare HBCcruiser Posted April 7, 2022 Author #124 Share Posted April 7, 2022 The captain and crew are telling us we are going to have rainy weather in Hawaii. Boo. I’m not too concerned about some of our excursions but I’ll be bummed if my helicopter ride and the luau is canceled. We shall play it by ear. Lots of clouds around us today.
