Can your parents stand up in the shower? Keep in mind that their standard room showers are very small. The chair may not fit inside the shower. Also , there are no grab bars in the bathroom by the toilet or in the shower. And it's either a step up or down into the bathroom. Can they handle that? I don't know their situation, but my wife is a stroke survivor and these are the things I need to consider.

On a Miami port stop , does anyone know if Royal or private companies run shuttles to South Beach like they do to Ron Jon in Cape Canaveral?

We were supposed to but the covid surge last Christmas scared my wife. She said do whatever I want which is wife speak "we're not going".

My wife uses a scooter and takes it off a ship. I can't comment about European ports, but in ports like Portland Maine, and Nassau Bahamas, my wife went off the ship but found it very difficult riding on their cobblestone streets and went back to the ship within 20 minutes. She is on the heavy side, and I'm sure that it added to the discomfort.

As you probably know, a regular shower in tiny. With a stool, it will be very tight.

On sailing the week before, the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Then Jan 2, and again on Jan 24.

I was there in late May and they were using a few golf carts to transfer people from the ships to the street. But I think is was mostly for handicapped and elderly people.

On onboard next week too, but just in a balcony. We don't have CK to go to.

It was very well advertised the program was ending last week. I ordered 16 more tests before the deadline.

We've been on the Anthem at least 15 times. The Windjammer there is great. They really got their act together.

I was on the Oasis both in May and June. I agree 100 percent about the Windjammer, it was like that back then. Sorry to hear it hasn't changed. But if Raja is still in charge up there, then it explains a lot. He has no people skills.

All five in my name. No questions, no problems.

I was able to do 5 just before covid hit.

Check out the Roll Call, not here.

Not usually an issue.

If Earl causes a problem, Royal will re route the ship. Since it's only 5 days, the most obvious choice is Canada, going to Halifax and/or St John. They will not cancel the cruise.

I must be very lucky then. I've done it at least four and maybe even five times with Capt Ban in the past four years.

Everything is plastic including the charm. Not worth the effort in my opinion but my wife thinks otherwise. Guess who has to wait on line for them?

How much time will you actually have at Bean? Is it worth it?

Anthem is doing it in April 2023. I'm on it as well. They do the eight nights when Royal wants to go from a Saturday to Saturday schedule to a Sunday to Sunday. This is how they pick up the extra day.

Royal shopping talks are not what they used to me. They very rarely talk about the ports bring visited. The last two we attended in May and June ONLY spoke about Effy jewelry for the entire hour. It was a complete waste of time.

You say it doesn't matter, yet you do reply to ALL who comment to you. Methinks you do care.

I have a 10:00 scheduled for 9/11.

The container village replaced the tented area.

Check out a private operator named Geoffrey. He has two hours of touring, two hours shopping, and a few hours at the beach. I've used him many times and he is very accommodating
