Rare kazu Posted December 23, 2022 Author #301 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Tree lighting ceremony was last night. I missed out on the pic I really wanted as some kind soul ignored my cane and knocked me to the ground. They were serving Christmas cookies - especially to the children. Sweet dress on this little one: Atrium and upper levels were packed. Captain and staff above doing announcements: A little 6 year old girl had the honour of lighting the tree (sorry that’s when I got knocked). But here it is all lit up: Don’ know if you can make it out or not but I tried to get a couple of shots when it was “snowing” 18 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad you’re having a good time and your friends are onboard with you to celebrate the holidays! Thanks for the pictures and really like the Seagull pic especially! Jacqui I thought I read somewhere that VeriFLY is no longer used at San Diego. Did you have to use it? Thanks 🌺Denise🙂 No I didn’t have to use Verifly. Several people asked and no one seemed interested in seeing it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare kazu Posted December 23, 2022 Author #305 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Today was our Meet and Greet. Had the pleasure to meet some posters I have “known” at long last. Oh my heavens, Vickie @sailorvic sure put a lot of work into it. Different games and prizes. Thank you, Vickie 🙂 I was afraid I wasn’t going to make it - 45 minutes at Shore Excursions to get an error corrected. I had prepaid and was charged. At least he agreed that I had paid or used HIA - computer glitch and sadly I had to wait and watch while he tried to get it fixed. Hopefully it doesn’t repeat next segment 🤞 Here is tonight’s MDR menu: 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare kazu Posted December 23, 2022 Author #310 Share Posted December 23, 2022 @Vict0riann I believe the Beverage Manager’s name is Zero? At least that’s what I thought I heard yesterday at Sail a Way. Going to the wine tasting today with my friends so will see if I can find out more. Best pick up my bingo tickets on the way - think I will see what my chances are 🤞 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianbear Posted December 23, 2022 #311 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I loved the Christmas decorations when we were on the Koningsdam for 21 days a few years back. They had villages set up by the Dutch Cafe at that time. Thanks for the photos-brings back wonderful memories of our cruise. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vjblk Posted December 23, 2022 #313 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Maybe this has been asked but I was wondering what amenities they have in the cabins. Soap, shampoo, lotion? Trying to figure out what to pack for next week. I'm not too particular in what I use so what they have should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailing away from San Diego last night: The US Navy's strike carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72), the flagship of Carrier Strike Group 3, is back home at NAS North Island.

Rare BetsyS. Posted December 24, 2022 #320 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Jacqui, I'm so sorry you were knocked down. I'm glad your friends are onboard. Thanks for all your reporting and pics. The Christmas decorations are festive and the sunsets are beautiful. I like the seagull! He thinks he's the Captain! Good luck at bingo! I love it too! I have fun even though I don't win. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oakridger Posted December 24, 2022 #322 Share Posted December 24, 2022 The Christmas flower arrangement you gave to your friends is very pretty! I was given three different arrangements on my HAL cruises this fall, and I thought all of them were very well done and the flowers were nice and fresh. ~Nancy 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare kazu Posted December 24, 2022 Author #325 Share Posted December 24, 2022 To end all discussion on teas. It is there. I saw it as I was leaving the wine tasting. You need to know to go just like I asked for a fruit crisp last night (delicious by the way) but not the menu. Pics tomorrow as I am on DD DH’s Ipad;. 7 hours ago, vjblk said: Maybe this has been asked but I was wondering what amenities they have in the cabins. Soap, shampoo, lotion?

Some have a low tolerance so they were topping off glasses. I can’t do red safely so I was topping off glasses. Let’s just say all were happy . Randell was in charge - I will probably get in trouble for the spelling on that one but I asked and did the best I could. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
