Artemis908 Posted April 4, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Wondering if anyone has a favorite ship event/activity? ie. fruit carving demonstrations, cupcake designing, pasta making, best legs contest, etc. On our last cruise I remember circling alot of stuff I wanted to do in the compass but didn't get to do most of it! Guess I got a little too relaxed in the room lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted April 4, 2012 #2 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I don't actually GO to any demonstrations or activities...if I pass by one, I may stop and watch. I did enjoy the ice-carving they do on the pool deck (or, used to!!)...those guys are amazing! My favorite activity is sitting by the pool, reading and people-watching!

ryano Posted April 4, 2012 #3 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I like Quest, Love and Marriage and the 70's Disco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennmaybe Posted April 4, 2012 #4 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Our favorite activity on Oasis was getting popcorn and going to the Aqua Theater at night to sit outside and watch a movie on the big screen! It was awesome! Sitting outside, ocean breeze blowing through my hair, eating popcorn--it was the best!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arubamoose Posted April 4, 2012 #5 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Absolutely the most hilarious adult oriented event. I am never failed to be amazed what people will do to win a keychain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mybearsbaby Posted April 4, 2012 #6 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Rock Climbing (or in my case, attepting to rock climb)was pretty awesome! We REALLY enjoyed watching the ice rink show too. They did an amazing job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvscruising2007 Posted April 4, 2012 #7 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I enjoy many of the things others have mentioned. But, the cake decorating contest between the captain and the chef and a cruiser was hilarious. I believe it was on Radiance. Their personalities came out and it was fun to watch.

Artemis908 Posted April 4, 2012 Author #8 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Anyone know if there are any art activities such as pottery painting? We saw this on Princess but they only had cups and plates left and who wants one single plate or cup?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumRunner01 Posted April 4, 2012 #9 Share Posted April 4, 2012 70's Disco night FOR SURE! We always dress up. I also love the Prohibition party on Allure. It's such a great idea. On my comment card I suggested they do something similar on all ships that ties in to the ship's entertainment or ports or something. It's a great way for them to generate more revenue and a great event for those of us who are not into the entertainment shows or demonstations.

Pomperaugrr Posted April 4, 2012 #10 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Mattress testing or renewing Balcony Club membership. Favorite Public Activity is THE QUEST. It is not so much winning the keychain as it is the team building and competition...and the martini or two before the show... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigeagle12 Posted April 4, 2012 #11 Share Posted April 4, 2012 People watching at the pool, people watching in the Promenade, or sitting peacefully on my balcony :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jletsgo Posted April 4, 2012 #12 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I love ALL OF IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But my favs are the Quest and Love and Marriage (never gets old)....and I love sitting by the pool reading and watching all the peeps :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequim88 Posted April 4, 2012 #13 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Sailaway. Hands down. Not only an activity but an important event. We do like Walk for Wishes (or whatever it is called). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumRunner01 Posted April 4, 2012 #14 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Oh yes, I enjoy the people watching too! How could I forget that one! And I love having the time to read a good book on my balcony or at the pool or in the Solarium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-52 Posted April 4, 2012 #15 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Getting up early and going out on the top deck at 5am, with my morning coffee, long before the sun comes up. There is nobody around but a handful of us, every morning. It almost becomes a social club, we all always recognize and acknowledge each other. Those early hours at sea are magical! Before the busy day begins. Then I'll do my morning run, go down and wake the Mrs up and head to breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKcruises Posted April 4, 2012 #16 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Sail Away!!!! Those first moments when the ship starts to move away from the dock and my vacation is just beginning... makes my heart beat faster just thinking about it!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine-lady Posted April 4, 2012 #17 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Standing on the balcony late at night looking at the stars. The most peaceful time I have ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxpilot Posted April 4, 2012 #18 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Video and photo scavenger hunts were fun. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coordinator23 Posted April 4, 2012 #19 Share Posted April 4, 2012 On ships that have it, the Ice Show! comes in first and usually the production shows come in second. I agree, there is nothing like standing out on the balcony looking at the stars (especially during the winter months for us midwesterners) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxxedout2 Posted April 4, 2012 #20 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Yup, Sailaway. Waving arms to the 'YMCA' and trying to remember the Macarana. But, Ice Shows and Production Shows are our priority. Front row, every show. Dining must fit around the live performances for us. Watch Quest. Play Trivia. Jog in A.M. and enjoy balcony time. On cloudless nights I am Sky Watching on top deck, around 3 A.M., with coffee, the Ipad2 and using 'Star Walk' app and a pair of binos. I also enjoy the ice carving demo and seeing the fruit carvings. I am a woodcarver and can relate. :cool::cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
