Rainy Sailaway,what to do?

[az-cruiser]

It looks like we are going to have a rainy sail away, what are the best things to do out of the rain?

 

Thank you!

Which ship will you be on. We can get more specific if we know that.

 

But in general, if you have a balcony you can stand under the cover of it while you sail away or grab a drink at one of the indoor bars. Go eat at one of the specialty restaurants.

Thank you!

As with anything else, the BEST thing is simply to do the thing that YOU like the most.

 

Do what makes YOU happy, don't chase the happiness if others.

Dance in the rain! --no need to be inside!

[NMLady]

Have a drink at a windowside table in one of the bar/lounges.

Go party in the rain. Remember how much fun you had as a child playing in the rain?

[Barb Nahoumi]

Years ago we had a rainy sailaway when leaving Boston for Bermuda on the Majesty. The ship moved the festivities to the Spinnaker lounge.

Which port/ship? :confused:

Be thankful that you are on a cruise and just be happy doing anything you want. Since I live in Arizona and we don't get much rain, I'd be standing out in the rain watching the sailaway and smiling.

Wear a rain jacket with a hood and do what you normally would! Or, spend time out on the promenade deck, which is covered. I'm sure the BBQ/party will be moved to accommodate the rain, if it's really that bad.

Dance and be happy, you're on a CRUISE SHIP....sailing away to fun, fun, fun.....

[Casey30043]

Just have fun. that is our plan, not gonna let a little rain ruin our fun. I am guessing the OP is either on Escape or Getaway out of Miami this weekend.

[OCruisers]

Join others who will also be escaping the rain in a bar/lounge with a view and having fun! :)

Bon Voyage! :D

Go unpack and relax.

We're on the Escape this Saturday.:)

 

I didn't even think to check the weather forecast. But if it rains at sailaway time, I'm heading to the Waterfront area.

 

We have 6p reservations for Cagneys and it would be romantic to dine outside or inside with an aft view.:o

You will be at dinner at sailaway. Ship sails at 7 pm. At least you will be on the port side toward Miami. The weather predicts scattered storms in evening,,,, hopefully you will be long gone before they hit. We were on the Escape last week, and a few days were very windy and the closed the outside restaurant seating. I posted the current dailies if you are interested http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2358689

 

If it is really rainy, the waterfront gets pretty wet. If rain is anticipated, we plan early and get a window table in the buffet and enjoy the sailaway there. We would rather be able to see outside, than be at some sailaway party inside.

I'm from AZ too, and rain on a cruise gets old fast. It rained on my Nov Escape sail away. It was fun for about five minutes until we were soaked. They moved the party to the Atruim, it was dissapointing but we made the most of it.

It poured cats and dogs as we sailed out of San Diego once. People were everywhere, all over the ship, inside and out, just having an amazing time.

Go get your swimsuit on, grab a drink, and jump in one of the jacuzzi/hot tubs. I did that on a rainy sail-away and had it all to myself.
