Might have been a Divine Wind drone.

Was on a 3 day on Spectrum out of Singapore, was listed but no one else showed up.

If there is not one listed you can start one, Royal Caribbean will supply a space, nothing more.

Spectrum had announcements in English and two other languages out of Singapore, and there was an overwhelming amount of passports from the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore.

Have done the TA in both directions, prefer heading west with 25 hour days rather than east with 23 hour days. Gonna try Japan to Seattle in 2026, April 25 to May 9 on the Anthem, hoping the Pacific lives up to its name.

Hey Beer Belly, noticed you lost your part time job on the Simpsons.

Reminds me how much better my meatless diet is, have had very good vegetarian and vegan dishes on RC.

Wish they would schedule stops or cruises out of DR in the fall while the baseball league is playing.

You are allowed to select 4 items on the menu. We used my specialty ticket and each ordered two items, then the next time we used my wife's ticket and each ordered two items. As per the advice of our waiter we stopped in at the garden cafe and grabbed dessert.

Will be traveling on Liberty as our first Diamond cruise this September. We do not drink alcohol, was wondering what other drinks will be available, such as milkshakes.

I just did Spectrum of the Seas out of Singapore in March, had the best meal I ever had at sea in the Sichuan Red specialty restaurant, there were 5,000 passengers on that cruise, most traveling on Asian passports.

Bar Harbor is drawing the line at 1,000 cruisers a day. No NCL ships will be stopping in.

And they can sail out of NY at Cape Liberty.

There are 12 step program meetings available, usually in the afternoons on sea days. You need not be an alcoholic or addict to attend, perhaps you have family members who could benefit from attendance. Could help you to understand these diseases.

The good thing about a 3 day cruise is that it is too short to get bored with the food selections. We very much enjoyed the great variety of asian food avalable at all meals. My wife was surprised, first time she had congee for breakfast on a ship. The first night we did the mdr at our assigned time of 5 pm. A little early, but with a 7 pm show, worked out ok. I especially like the mdr because every night they have a vegan starter, main course and dessert. Makes ordering easy and it was very good, as it was previously in 2023 on liberty and explorer. There were plenty of other choices. The second night, while we were docked in penang, we ate at sechuan red. At lunch we were offered a 50% discount for dinner that night by ariel from the philippines. Perhaps he spotted my wife or heard her speaking ilocano. We had been debating whether to go to a pay extra restaurant on such a short cruise, but 50% helped make up our minds. The spicy sea scallops i had were excellent, got a side dish of garlic broccoli, very good. The wife enjoyed her lobster with noodles, and we both got started with hot and sour soup. We both agreed it was the best food we ever had on a cruise. Therevwas only one other table of 4 guests in sichuan red between 6pm and 7:30 pm. The last night we did windjammer and enjoyed the wide variety available, as there had been at lunch every day. We are hoping to book spectrum for a longer cruise in the next two years.
