Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted June 4, 2023 #452 Share Posted June 4, 2023 I really enjoyed reading about your Hawaiian adventure. You put so much time and effort into this; thank you! DH and I laughed when we saw one of the Eggs Benedict pics because it reminded us of when I had it the first day on the Royal over Christmas, and the sauce they gave me was vanilla sauce instead of Hollandaise!! Talk about a mouth full of surprise! 🤢 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anewmac Posted June 8, 2023 #454 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Thanks for sharing. I am doing an Alaskan cruise so came for the pics of the ship (and food porn is always great to see also!) Going in with low expectations of this ship. Also had to laugh as Im originally from San Pedro, its my childhood hometown! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sable1 Posted October 23, 2023 #461 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Just had a marathon reading session of over 6 hours. Wow! What a wonderful review. Will be on the Crown to Hawaii in Jan. and have made notes of which foods to choose. I just have to say I really would have liked to see a photo of you all enjoying the cruise. Maybe in Sabstini's? The bears were cute, but I'm a people person. Again, thank you. Joanne 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joanne thank you for your kind words & managing to read the whole thing! I went to find a "people" picture to share with you & realized as I was searching that I barely took any this cruise...thanks for making me realize that, I will need to do better on our next cruises! Here is one of my sissy & BIL... ...I grew up in Fremont, last time I was back I barely recognized anything....

CruisingFox27 Posted December 10, 2023 #463 Share Posted December 10, 2023 @travelin.sisters I just noticed your recommendation to this review on another thread. We've just booked our first Princess cruise, sailing on the Crown for next year. San Francisco, through Hawaii and the Pacific to NZ. Our first time to all of these ports. I hope we have luck with the weather and docking. Thank you for such a fabulous and detailed review. I too am a planner and a researcher, people who don't like lists are suspicious to me 🤣 My pre cruise spreadsheet has already been prepared 😁 This has been fantastic to read, so much new information is brilliant. You have a wonderful writing style and it was a pleasure to spend a few hours this morning 'sailing' with you. Love the bears, also view people who don't like cute bears with suspicion 🧸 And your puppy is also adorable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is nice to meet another planner (although I sometimes like that my people are not too big of planners because then the just follow along with my plans & don't try to overrule them with their [obviously inferior😅] plans! Thank you for your kind words, I find a live is a great way to be disciplined about a travel journal as I sometimes don't remember which cruise we did what on, now I copy my parts & the photos to a document for myself to look back on our good (or story worthy times)... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
