My wife and I (also a woman) are going on our first cruise in December and we have been discussing MDR options. I guess we might give it a go once and see what we think. The people I socialize with are all straight and range from 25 to 69 so we should be alright in the MDR. :)

Hi Dr. A,

What a surprise to find you here!

I stumbled into here because of a “slight problem” we had our last cruise with dinner table seating arrangements. It definitely was not the fault of RCCL, nor was it our fault. It was the fault of the two people who decided they wanted to sit at our table on the nights they wanted to and at the time they wanted to. They gave a whole new meaning to “my time dining”, LoL. I don’t think it matters if you are at a 2-top table or a 10-top table…if you have 1 bad apple, it can spoil the whole basket.

Anyway, You and your wife are more then welcome to join us at our table for dinner. We are booked for the early seating (5:30). I know many people normally do not like the early diner seating because of sight-seeing on the islands and other shore excursions, but in December it’s almost dark by 5:00 p.m.

Then, there are a few evenings when the 3 of us will go to the specialty dining rooms for dinner, which will leave the two of you alone to have an intimate evening for two.

If you are interested in sharing a table with us “3 old farts” (me, my husband and our friend)… please email me & I will give you the name our booking is under so your travel-agent can cross reference it. Or…our travel agent can cross reference it if yours can not.

On a different note…you should never worry about how others will accept you for who you are, or for being with the person you love. That being said, we look forward to meeting both of you in December.

Looking for photos...anyone out there have any......?

I want my Sitmar back.

I have a suitcase full of pix up in my attic. I am sure many of the pictures are from the 2 cruises my family & I took aboard the Fairwind in July of 1977 and July/August 1979. When I get a chance to go through them, I will post or contact you. :)
