Happy to hear you are well fed. I love lamb chops and salmon, all sounds delicious. And of course, ice cream all day just like on a cruise ship is always a nice treatπ¦ Sorry to hear it is another 9 weeks of non-weight bearing and wearing a boot but it does sound like you are in good hands with food and your therapists. Much better to be where you are then at home as you would probably try to do too much yourself at home, plus have trouble getting to PT appointments. Hang in there and recovery fully. π

When I go to starlink.com says $110 per month. That's a lot more than what I pay now.

Ahh, that's cute and thank god the mowing didn't end in horror. In past years my cat Splashes caught a baby bunny and brought to me. I immediately told her to drop (it's cry sounded like a human baby) and it hopped back under our shed. It was a game for her this happened a couple times. She never hurt them just carried them around like a baby kitty by the back of their neck.

today's cocktail is watermelon daquiri's. Gorgeous weather, spent about 3.5 hours on the beach. Ocean temp is only 68 f - too cold for me but did see a bunch of kids and young adults in the water. I have not yet tried the frozen kraken beverage but do have the ginger syrup. Maybe tomorrow. But first I have to find the recipe that SeaDog posted.

Yes cabins 7152 thru 7670 (both port and starboard side) have extended balconies. We have booked these many times on Serenade and Jewel and love them. They are also on the forward portion of the ship too. Only on Deck 7. Some people don't like them because the extended balcony portion about 3' or 4' is not under roof and people on upper decks can look down and see you. the dividing wall is between the standard balcony portion not the extending portion but you can only see into your neighbors balcony if they are standing all the way out to the rail or if you peak your head around the corner. if you look at my profile page on here you will see a photo I took that will give you a better understanding of the extension.

Do You Use The Bionic Bar?
Sunshine3601 replied to ReneeFLL's topic in Royal Caribbean International
We have never used. Sure, we have stood there to watch it when it first come out but the novelty wore off real quick and now just walk by. Our last couple of cruises we saw families with the kids playing around. I much prefer human interaction. π -
For this particular sailing, here is the pricing I received from Royal's website for senior citizens: Guarantee rate is $2542 pp (with this rate they could end up with an obstructed balcony) they pick their own cabin is $2671 pp for obstructed balcony or for standard oceanview (no obstruction) price is $2788 pp As you mention they want deck 8 so they should pick their own cabin. If they want mid ship there is an additional charge of $152 for 2 people but I don't see any cabins available near your cabin. IF they are diamond or higher with crown and anchor make sure your Niece has their C & A numbers to get the discount along with any military, senior citizens discount. That looks like a great cruise!!!

No, booking a guaranteed cabin has nothing to do with being upgraded. Now if booking a guaranteed suite the chances are you would get a Junior Suite but there is always the chance you could end up in grand suite (again depends on the sailing). Last year and this past winter when ships were sailing at less than 50% capacity a lot of passengers were upgraded but now they are at almost 100% capacity on most sailings it would rare.

Accessible / handicapped cabins do tend to fill up fast so always best to book a specific cabin. They are usually not part of the guaranteed cabin pool.

Yes, you have the choice of booking a guaranteed cabin or pay a little more and select what cabin you want when you book. We have particular places / decks that we prefer so we always pick our own cabin. If she selects guaranteed cabin make sure it is an Oceanview Balcony guarantee, if it is called a neighborhood guarantee then it could be a balcony in Central Park or Boardwalk balcony with no ocean view (depending on the ship). You can do a mock booking on royal's website to see the difference.

Dinner attire for NE/Canada cruise
Sunshine3601 replied to sunlover2's topic in Ask a Cruise Question
Bright caribbean colors is just fine. Have funπ -
Houses on the island do not have basements so our laundry is on the first floor in a closet. Our furnace and hot water heater are also in a closet. They do take up space but there is plenty of closet space on the 2nd floor where bedrooms are located. We have a large outdoor shower (which I love taking outdoor showers when I am here). Our neighbors converted part of their outdoor shower into an outdoor laundry area. To me that is strange but I have seen it done other places.

That sucks! Sorry to hear of these troubles with covid and travel delays. The fjords and artic circle should still be there for future cruise. I completely understand as our Norway Fjords cruise was cancelled for us too! Someday soon we will make it there Hopefully hubby feels better soon.
