An Annie Lennox concert has started, and again someone has forgot to change the input from music to MUTS....several such instances

 

on this cruise...as I am finishing this sentence, it has finally been switched.

I'm curious if you heard any fellow passengers comment about the condition of Orient Beach. It sounds like it took a beating but I've read that it's coming back to life, albeit very slowly.

 

Thanks again for all your insights and comments. We'll be on board in 3 weeks!

I hope that Princess step's it up. This is, in my wife's words their "last chance". We've been loyal Elite members, but, well...

 

Yes, I agree! Loved Princess for years but too many negatives lately...Our next cruise is in March on the Ruby and I hope it's much improved from our November cruise. I'm loving this thread! Thanks for sharing...

Most of the morning & afternoon was poolside, and we watched the sail away and sunset from the balcony. I was not expecting to have a big dinner, but who knew that it was Brazilian night, and tonight's post is sponsored by MEAT [emoji491] [emoji490] [emoji202] [emoji200]

 

OMG, what did I just eat? [emoji33]. Short ribs, chorizo, bacon wrapped chicken, chorizo wrapped tri-tip, empanadas, fried dough, kebbe...where did that pasta come from? Oy, and chocolate bread pudding to finish. Think I will sleep on the balcony tonight! It was also crab [emoji886] shack night.

 

Currently sitting in Crooners listening to Mary Simon...she is very good.

 

Pics to follow...

 

I have not spoken to anyone yet who went to the beach today.

I've been at the casino for the past 2 hours. Been some time since I was able to play that long with profit in front of me...had to call it a night as I was falling asleep at the table. A few more minutes on the balcony before turning in...

Great Posts !

 

What did you man by " Elite perk - walk right down to tenders" ?

 

I was on 5 Regal cruises B2B in Nov. and we still had to go through dining room and wait (however we were first on next tender).

 

We have 3 more Real Cruises booked in Feb. and March

 

Thanks John

Up early, Ro hit the running track and I sank to the bottom of the pool [emoji1397]. There was a quick passing shower, but it is a nice sea day so far. After a bite to eat, watching Princess Bride again....a decade of watching the movie on Princess....

It depends on the number of Elites onboard. On our last 2 cruises, there were so many Elites we had to take a number and wait, too. Altho, it was in a special area and our "Elite numbers" got us on faster than other passengers who had to wait even longer.
