Thanks!

Does everyone in the cabin have to buy one if one person does? I'd like to get one for my kids while I drink water.

Some people would sue the cruise line, claiming their luggage got wet because there was not a warning label on the sprinkler in three languages.

Instead, you set the example for your children and showed them what it means to take responsibility for your actions with honesty and integrity. You have taught them a valuable lesson and they will not only be more careful next time, they stand a pretty strong chance of growing into responsible adults if this is a typical response from you.

You are exactly the kind of parent that I would want on my ship if I were in charge.

I was more bothered by people slamming their doors and talking in the hall at full volume at 6:30 in the morning. I wanted to sleep in during my vacation and the early risers can be just as disrespectful and annoying as the night owls.

Now that's what I call an upgrade.

I get motion sickness fairly easily. I used the wristbands on my first cruise last fall and they worked perfectly with no side effects whatsoever. First time I've been on a boat and not gotten sick, but this was also my first cruise ship. Haven't tried wristbands on a smaller boat since then.

I did not want to be drugged and drowsy on my vacation, so I was happy to find something that worked.

Sounds great, thanks for the answers!

Can you get more than one choice of meat at a time?

And how is the general serving size? I don't want to wait in a long line for a snack that will leave me hungry afterwards.

Thanks for your review! My family will be doing the same itenerary on the Inspiration in August.

I'm concerned about the cigarette smoke, but otherwise excited. Our three kids (8-12) are looking forward to that waterslide.

I don't eat salad. If the person in front of me is taking the time to prepare themselves a nice salad, I will pass by the salad section and move on to the real food. But I will wait in line until I get to that point, not just jump right in and head straight to the hot stuff.

I bought a pair of Brita bottles with the built in filters for our cruise at the end of the month. In my opinion, they did a poor job of removing the chlorine taste from our local tap water. In addition, they had a strong taste and smell of plastic.

I would encourage people to get them in advance and try them first so they are not disappointed, and take some time to break them in before the cruise.

No problem. This is the place to ask your questions. The season begins with a 4 day cruise on September 26-30 that stops in Catalina.

I will be on that cruise and I will post here when I get back.

Someone posted some menus in this thread:

I am looking forward to hearing about the days off the ship. This has been a great thread to follow so far.
