FLAMOM24 Posted August 11, 2014 #51 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Haaa,,,he'll actually hug you first,,Giovanni walked up to both my girlfriend and our cousin, and hugged both of them, apologizing for the delay in seating us,,,I just got a smile and a handshake,,what the hell?? LOL! That's awesome...I'm a hug fan of hugging! One more thing to look forward to :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikesa1721 Posted August 11, 2014 #52 Share Posted August 11, 2014 LOL! That's awesome...I'm a hug fan of hugging! One more thing to look forward to :p Another tip,,if you have friends or family who are not traveling in the Yacht Club,, they can purchase a Yacht Club day pass which will give them access to all of the Yacht Club amenities for $125.00 pp including unlimited drinks. The price may have even gone down since I inquired about it a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2 I'm traveling with are in the same cabin but I'm sure that info will help others :) Do you know how many of these passes they sell each day?

resstation Posted August 11, 2014 Author #55 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I just realized I never mentioned my son's favorite pastime (he was14) - drinking Nutella Shakes in the area with the bowling lanes. He LOVES Nutella but the pool deck was always a madhouse (that's where you can get the crepes). He said the shakes were incredible - way too rich for me - and served up fast because there were hardly any people there at any given time.

FLAMOM24 Posted August 12, 2014 #57 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I can give you a couple now,,,In the Yacht Club elevator lobby, there is a card reader,,,insert your card and press one of the two buttons on either side of the card reader,,the elevator will immediately come to your floor. There are card readers in these elevators as well,,,if you find yourself in hurry up mode:eek:, insert your card and then select your floor,,the elevator will bypass any floors before you and bypass them,,taking you straight to your deck. If Giovanni is still there,,the Maitre'D of LeMuse,,he may come off a little brash. Don't let this bother you,,he is a little stressed on embarkation day,,he really is a fantastic guy!! Mikesa, I realize everyone's tastes are different but was wondering if you could recommend a drink they make that just stands out for you (or any to avoid...lol)? TIA Michelle :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA Michelle :) I really enjoy my Bloody Mary's in the morning while on vacation. I had one on our last sailing and didn't care for it, so the guys at the One Bar told me that a couple brought onboard their own Bloody Mary mix and they kept it in their cooler for them. Armed with this new found knowledge, I'm going to attempt to bring onboard a bottle of Zing Zang and some Pique Artesanal hot sauce, if I can manage to find some here in the states. During the day and evening I keep it quite simple,,Crown/Sour or Pain Killers keep me happy most of the day. Kim on the other hand loved a specialty drink they made at the One Bar. Not sure of the exact name, but it was made with St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur. I want to say Elderflower fizz, but don't quote me on that :) Edited August 12, 2014 by Mikesa1721 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomato juice and vodka does not make a very good one. He tried to spice it up with some tobasco sauce,,yeah,,not happening. Hopefullty I can get some Zing Zang on,,I'll let you know how I made out in a couple of weeks,,,tomorrow we'll be doing the single digit dance,,can't wait!!

So, I'll start the review a day or so before we leave and hopefully I'll have a list of questions to answer before we leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
