Not sure if I am "allowed" to suggest this, or if it violates "the rules" (and if it does I am sure the mods will delete it and send me a nastygram), but we use shoreexcursioneer.com, viator.com, resortforaday.com and daypasses.com to find our excursions.

There were several cruisers on NCL doing a private excursion recently over in Africa that got left behind. They had to do a 3 or 4 day trek across Africa to catch up with the ship. It makes for an entertaining read over on the NCL boards and made national news.

This is the first time I have ever heard of Liberty also being known as "the stink".

Well those two photon torpedo phaser beams being shot into, or out of, those cabins can't be a good thing.

Next time you are on board, watch closely and look at how they do tip vs non tip receipts. In addition to having to manually add it into the system, they also put the tip receipts in a separate pile from the non tip receipts. Presumably they do this so that on the last night when the cheapskates begin complaining at guest services about their final bill on their S&S account and begin removing gratuities and saying "I never tipped on this drink" and shaft the hard working crew because they spent more than they can afford, they can find the receipt a bit easier to show that they did tip and sign for it.

I think most of us a trolling the OP right back.

Maybe it was lost in the piles of dust and dirt in your unkept, filthy room.

The best dish ever doesnt exist anymore. The hen a la diavola from the Seaday brunch menu. It went the way of the dodo bird when they started throwing out the baby with the bathwater to save money after the 'rona. I hope they bring it back one day.

🤕 My brain hurts after attempting to read that.

We just check everything and I just cram meds and other things into my backpack. Less hassle that way. The back pack I have been using lately was one I found laying in the stairwell on Venezia as we boarded her back in November.

Thats not always true. Sometimes CBP agents come on board the ship where B2B cruisers are staged and clear them there from the lounge. How do you know the backpack wasn't turned into Lost and Found and given to shoreside personnel? You just blame anyone and everyone except yourself after you negligently left it in the stateroom or unwittingly set it down somewhere and forgot you even had it with you. And if you are Diamond as you claim to be, you would already know the answers to the questions you are asking. In completely unrelated news, I am really enjoying the backpack that I found just laying in the stairwell on the Venezia last November.

I have never cared one way or the other who the CD is. The only one that has ever made a difference (in a negative way) doesen't even work at Carnival anymore. "This is your cousin C-C-C-C-C-Cookie" EVERY FRIGGIN TIME at the beginning of an announcement was like nails on a chalkboard to me.

You know it was the cabin steward...how?? Maybe you took the backpack and accidentally set it down somewhere unknowingly. Passengers should be held to a higher standard of being responsible for their own stuff.

Thanks for sharing...glad you had a good trip...do all Canadians always...write like this... ... ...??? Eh? 😆

Just curious. Would you have noticed this had you not looked at the map? Water is water no matter if you are doing circles there, north of there, south of there or east of there. You cant really tell a difference. A sea day is a sea day, especially when the port of call is so close. Take a look at Radiance over out of Long Beach. It goes between LA and Catalina and Ensenada. That ship basically does circles all day every day just off the coast.
