Another loyalty benefit. You get your first at 140, and every 70 points after.

 

 

I hit 420 this cruise.

Talk about weed...lol

“Balcony Maintenance” today appears to be spray washing them down. They were just on my balcony doing that. I am being a rebel and have my curtains open. 🤣🤣 If they want to peep me reading while fully dressed, go for it. 🤣🤣

We were on deck 13 last week and after balcony maintenance we had 2 inches of water pooled at the balcony doors. Room steward used a squeegee to push the water to the drain.

What time were there no chairs available?  I can't really do sand well (knee) so we tend to  hang by pools or where the sand is firm.  We'll be there on Vision with Liberty in April so less people overall.

@BND we got there around 10am and no chairs available around the heated pool. We stayed under the very large covered bar area which worked well when the storm came thru.

OK--this may be too specific a question. 🤣 TIA

 

Where are the bathrooms located.  I noticed on the map there is a building near building 8 that looks like a bath house [not labeled on map].  Also, I would assume they are near the food venue by the pool. 

 

DH has some mobility issues and it makes life easier if we are within a reasonable distance of the facilities. [food, restrooms] He uses a walking stick and as you can imagine sand is not his friend.  However, we have always been beach people--and a little planning makes for a good 

@DragonOfTheSeasMy wife and I were there last week. With freedom and anthem there at same time there were no chairs available near the heated pool. We got a chair under the huge covered bar area and used that for our towels. We did not have to walk in any sand to get to the heated pool or rest rooms. The paths are all paved. On a side note glad your husband is doing well. 

We were also on this sailing and also had no distilled water in cabin. Room steward had one gallon that she shared with three other cabins. Evian and purified water is not what manufacturers want you to use in the machines.

The only good frozen drink we found was at the pool bar the casino bar drinks were terrible in November and last week. 

We really enjoyed the band Iconic in Music Hall a little loud but still very good. Glad they were still there.

We had snow on the Quantum when we embarked in February 2015 and was nice seeing snow on the Anthem as we got off.

We also booked Freedom out of Florida for August much cheaper than cruising from Jersey.

Beautiful day and night on the Anthem 

Just an fyi...They are rationing distilled water this sailing. They hope to have some on board in Florida. 

We leave tomorrow on the Anthem. We drove up a day early this time and saw Vision docked in Baltimore while driving thru.

I officially love coco cay overnights. A few minutes ago in the casino. This is going into the envelope for Vegas on race week!
 

 

oh, the first day I posted that I lost at monopoly. Looking at machines tonight, it was WOF. 

On Oasis in August I hit a large jackpot while docked at Labadee. 

Has anyone here requested a win/loss statement from casino Royale. If so how long does it normally take.  Thanks again.

While my grandson and I were traveling to the airport Sunday evening i had a tour guide with me. My grandson is 8 and he has been through D.C. before but not at night. With everything all lit up he as giving me a play by play of what we were seeing. The Washington Monument, The White House (where there is an oval office he told me) and the Jefferson memorial. It made the drive so much more enjoyable.

Grandson and I are at reagan national airport waiting for my daughter(his mom) and son in law(his dad) to arrive from their wonder cruise.

My daughter and her husband are on the Wonder now and they were at CocoCay today.  I told my grandson that mom and dad were at CocoCay today and he said that's where Mr. Beast was. Mr. Beast does his favorite youtube videos.

We used them because @dani negreanu mentioned them to us.

@h20skibumWe used them to get from ft Lauderdale Airport to Miami hotel. Then next day from hotel to Miami Port. Sorry it was last January for our b2b on Disney. They picked us up at Miami Port and then to Ft Lauderdale Airport. No issues on time and very reliable.

Now that you have 2 recommendations for the same company, might just give them a call....😉

I am looking for a recommendation from some of our friends here.  

 

Our plans for Summer of Fun 4.0 continue, and part of that is to take the grandkids and our daughter and SIL on the Utopia.  I just booked all of our flights to Orlando MCO).

 

Has anyone used a car service they can recommend.  Since there will be seven of us, plus luggage, I would like to keep all of us in one vehicle like a van or stretch limo, instead of using a couple Ubers.  We would be going to our hotel at Port Canaveral, since we arrive the day before the cruise.

 

If anyone has someone they could recommend, I would appreciate it. 

Last August we used Gojiffyjeff dot com we had 7 of us .

JR Express on Anthem s^cks.  Avoid.  

On Anthem 2-9-24 will not bother this time.

In November on Anthem the shakes were like watered down milk had them remake and ended up the same glad we used our diamond+ voucher but never again.

Buffalo needs Justin Tucker

What year do you expect to be able to do that?😄

@orville992024

We will be watching the Ravens win the super bowl on the Anthem.

The safety button also is missing from my Anthem 2-9-24 sailing.
