dale594 Posted June 11, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Will I be cold or not in the lounges and dining room when I wear my sleeveless or spaghetti strap dresses? I am going on the Carnival Miracle in July. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhsieh Posted June 11, 2007 #2 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I say yes, it's freezing!! But I'm one of those people who is always cold. If you are that way too, I'd bring a wrap or shawl or something.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furkidsmom Posted June 11, 2007 #3 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I thought Celebrity was cold, but Costa was very warm :( Guess I'm not much help :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ehpride Posted June 11, 2007 #4 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Will I be cold or not in the lounges and dining room when I wear my sleeveless or spaghetti strap dresses? I am going on the Carnival Miracle in July. Thanks! I was glad to have brought a sweater/jacket/wrap for my outfits. I was chilly in both the dining room and lounge. It can't hurt to bring them and if you don't need them, no biggie...but if you don't have them, you're not going to bhe happy if you're freezing.

hajekfam Posted June 11, 2007 #5 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I thought Celebrity was warm -both in the dining room and the lounges - never felt chilly except immediately after a rasul treatment (Guess all that warm mud and showers made the air feel cooler).

Happy ks Posted June 11, 2007 #6 Share Posted June 11, 2007 It's one of those things that you won't know until you get there! I'm always warm, thanks to my beloved hot flashes (not). When the room is cold I'm happy about it. This past Christmas cruise, the dining room was very warm, every night. I did not see any of the women around us using shawls, wraps or sweaters.

Jane110 Posted June 12, 2007 #7 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Remember: The temperature is controlled by men wearing suits, long sleeved shirts/ties and socks are are usually busy running around. They keep the temps at a tropical 32 degree's. It's awful and almost every woman, except those with hot flashes, complains of being cold and uncomfortable and nothing is ever done. Bring shawls and/or cardigans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilliesMom Posted June 12, 2007 #9 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I have had sleeveless and also spaghetti strap formals and never needed a sweater, wrap, or shawl. I think it comes down to personal choice.... are you often cold, then take a wrap of some type just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suezyq50 Posted June 12, 2007 #10 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I am always cold. I did take a wrap. I never needed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebr.cruiser Posted June 12, 2007 #11 Share Posted June 12, 2007 It depends! How's that for a helpful answer! On some ships I'm cold, others not. Some venues are cooler than others. Just be prepared with a sweater, shawl or jacket; if you need it, you've got it, if you don't, lay it aside. Of course, with my lovely hot flashes, I can go from freezing to steaming and back again in seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiseone24 Posted June 14, 2007 #12 Share Posted June 14, 2007 On the Triumph, I was fine in the dining room but freezing in the lounge for the shows at night. So I'd usually go back to the room and get a cardigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love2vacation Posted June 15, 2007 #13 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Will I be cold or not in the lounges and dining room when I wear my sleeveless or spaghetti strap dresses? I am going on the Carnival Miracle in July. Thanks! Take sweaters and wraps. The dining room wasn't too bad, but I thought the lounges where a little cold on the Miracle but not as bad as on the Explorer and Serenade...........brrrrrrrrrrrrrr. (I needed a blanket!)

trarecar Posted June 15, 2007 #14 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I already have a black shawl, but it's more decorative than anything. I've been looking around to find something a little more substantial before the cruise. Gotta go with black tho, so it will go with everything.

Cricky Posted June 15, 2007 #15 Share Posted June 15, 2007 OK Here is my 2cents. The dinning rooms are kept at 68-72 with lots of air circulation. I love it! Being a fluffy person with hot flashes it has always been the perfect temp. as far as the theaters and lounges, people usually go to those after a meal and generally you feel colder after you eat.If you are the type of person that is always cold in a restaurant you will feel the same on the ship. Happy sailing, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgttami Posted June 15, 2007 #16 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Everyone is different. I, for one have never felt cold when others around me said they were freezing!! (This was even prior to the menopausal days of cruising!!) I used to work with a guy who would sweat profusely while eating ice cream in the winter!! Some cruises I've been on, I'm amazed to see people strolling on deck with jackets when I'm sweating to death in short sleeves. Carry a wrap, shawl or jacket...it's there if you need it!!

CruisinMenika Posted June 15, 2007 #17 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I have found that on Carnival ships it is o.k. in the dining room. Freezing in the lounges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevoli Posted June 19, 2007 #18 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I WISH my hot flashes were over in seconds. Mine are more like "hot & sweaty for a while, then cold & clammy, I'll be back to normal in about 30-40 minutes and after a shower, but do NOT ask me to focus during this time" episodes. I don't know what's available on the Miracle, but many onboard shops sell inexpensive wraps in every color imaginable, so if you didn't want to take anything with you, you could spend $10 for one of these soft wraps and be prepared for anything.

Rare Lois R Posted June 19, 2007 #19 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Hi, I am never cold in the Dining room but as others have said, we are all different. While some are always cold, others are warm...just depends on the person. Hi Jane:)and Kathy:) And T:) great to see you again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmysmommy Posted June 20, 2007 #20 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Will I be cold or not in the lounges and dining room when I wear my sleeveless or spaghetti strap dresses? I am going on the Carnival Miracle in July. Thanks! We did the Miracle in August and I frequently needed a sweater in the dining room. (disclaimer: I'm typically cold anyway) Enjoy your cruise!
