Thanks for linking this thread to this one. :)

Twinkle: Would you also have the breakfast menus?

 

I'm sorry, I don't. We did room service most mornings and one time we went to the buffet. The only reason I have the other menus is because they were left in our cabin daily, and unfortunately, the breakfast menu wasn't part of this. It would have been nice to have those, but we didn't receive those.

[sail7seas]

Twinkletoes.....

 

How incredibly generous of you to go to the trouble to post all those menus.

 

Thank you.

I'll use any excuse to get out of the office! lol :)

 

Really, I don't mind because I've found so much helpful info here that it's nice to be able to help others. I can't even begin to imagine trying to plan a cruise (and I've used this board for info on land vacations) without the help of posters like you and the rest of the CC members. :)

[sail7seas]

It is nice when we can help each other, isn't it. :)

[Starr Mtn]

It's been awhile since we have been able to cruise.

Think it's worth it just to enjoy the lunch menu!

We didn't make it to the dining room for lunch, and now I wished we would have at least tried to enjoy the dining room at least once during our cruise.
