SHINEMAN Posted May 21, 2007 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Evidently you are now permitted to wear jeans and shorts in dining rooms in the evening. Recently observed not just shorts but the kind popular in high schools that are very wide and almost reach the ankles. Baseball caps are OK too, even if you like to wear one backwards. Are there any barriers left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingpirate Posted May 21, 2007 #4 Share Posted May 21, 2007 not just shorts but the kind popular in high schools that are very wide and almost reach the ankles. I guess if they reach the ankle, they are no longer "shorts":D We had those in high school, too, back then we called them gaucho skirts, but only girls wore them. :p Are there any barriers left? Yes, it appears so, in your mind.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoreguy Posted May 22, 2007 #5 Share Posted May 22, 2007 I have to find the shorts that go to your ankles I think they used to call them long pants :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that upsets me on a cruise is (are) rude passengers:eek: Oops! Off topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baseball caps are OK too, even if you like to wear one backwards. Are there any barriers left? Just came off a twelve day cruise from Athens to Istanbul. Saw no one who wore shorts in the main dining room or jeans ever. Same would go for the pay extra restaurants. The buffet at night more casual. However if you are not eating with the same group each night it would be easier to pack. No one will remeber that you wore the same outfit more than once. The jeans or shorts do not fit in at night with the ambience of most dining rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driker2 Posted May 22, 2007 #11 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Honestly, I don't remember a thing anyone wore on the cruise I just got off of. Who cares? Me too. Except for that guy in the bright yellow suit with matching hat and shoes. (Absolutely true.) I remember him. I would never wear shorts to dinner, but maybe it's because my legs are ugly. I would consider those shorts that go to the ankle, though. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memories of your cruise will not be based on how others dress, even if you take the time and effort to notice.:) This is not true. No matter how hard I trey I just can't get that image of the huge guy with the hammer loop dungarees on the Crown last year out of my mind. The level of dress on that cruise was the worst I have seen ever and I thought the folks in Philadelphia had some class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she didn't impair our enjoyment of the cruise; she kept us laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it is an unexpected comedy show.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
