Halloween in australia

[Shela]

Since Australia doesn't celebrate Halloween, does RCI ships that sail there at that time celebrate onboard? For instance, theme parties, costumes and decorations. Will be sailing at that time this year around Australia.

When on Rhapsody 2010 the only real difference I saw was for the kids. They went around the ship Trick or Treating with the Kids Club stopping off at the Customer Relations desk and dining room where they had a large bowl of candies for them. Presumably they did other things as well, I didn't notice the ship decorated in any particular way.

We sailed on Rhapsody on a co-charter cruise (Cruisin' Country) Oct-Nov '11 Syd- Noumea- Syd which included Halloween. They had a Halloween night, which included decorations etc - the whole night was themed and many people (passengers and crew) got into the spirit and dressed up. They had a best dressed contest.

Halloween has recently become a more celebrated event in Australia (to the angst of some), but it is not really a big event, but the RC ship are American:)

We were on rhapsody in oct/nov 2012 and there was a theme night for halloween with dress up competition and party. Lots of fun. We decorated our door and room but were asked to take the stuff off the door... Room attendant supervisor was a party pooper and actually took it down before we could. CD Casey and Activities Manager Patrick liked it !!!!!
