Agree, everyone is friendly and it reflects the onboard environment on both cruise lines. The journey cruises, the booze cruises have gotten a little out of hand lately 😆. Regarding out of hand behavior - It seems that a very small percentage of people lose their minds when boarding cruise ships, these people show a total lack of respect towards their fellow passengers. I have been reading about more recent crackdowns by security…I hope. There should be positive messaging onboard emphasizing respecting your fellow passengers. BTW, Cunard is not immune to having a few pax showing unruly drunken behavior. Over the summer on QM2, there was a guy at the Golden Lion pub blasted out of his mind literally jumping around like an ape taking away the fun of listening to the Irish band playing. Luckily his friends walked him away from the pub. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is helping, but there is only so much they can do and it is surely sad that it is necessary. We didn't get visited by the drug dogs the day we boarded, but they did make a surprise appearance in Bermuda and boarded the ship and walked all the passenger hallways. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted November 4, 2023 Author #3454 Share Posted November 4, 2023 That didn't really hit the spot. Meat quality was a little questionable. May make another pass for something to nibble on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted November 4, 2023 Author #3460 Share Posted November 4, 2023 The rain is not letting up this afternoon. I did my walking in the gym today. Got one mile to go which I would like to do outside, the view is better makes it easier to walk. Heading to the sauna for a bit, maybe the rain will pass soon. If not, I'll finish up my walking in the gym. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand, that is the most common area. Very easy if trash is not sorted properly for a fire to start there but it is also very easy to respond to a fire there. Not like when the funnel catches fire 😮 Thankfully, it was taken care of very quickly. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted November 4, 2023 Author #3464 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Table ready at 639. Very glad to see this menu. It's the extra we didn't have on the 13 day and was my favorite of the extra menus we had last year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a little far from Boston for a port day, but now that Bar Harbor is limiting cruise guests, other Northeast ports are stepping up. I've even seen some calling on Martha's Vineyard... Hyannis might be able to handle a cruise ship... You never know?!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted November 4, 2023 Author #3475 Share Posted November 4, 2023 The corn fritters were very nice. Still hot and a nice crunch with a nice portion of corn and not too much breading. The sauce didn't really add anything to it. The stir fry was just as good as I remember. Such a great flavor 😋 👌. For mains I got the fried shrimp and fish and teriyaki pork chop 737 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
