Nunagoras Posted October 3, 2022 #326 Share Posted October 3, 2022 What a wonderful review, among the best ones I've read here on CC! Obviously you're a professional on the media field, but again, as I normally say; technique one can learn on schools, sensibility to the things or one naturally has or one not; and to make cruise reports, you surely have!... Congrats!... As some say here: RCI or whatever cruise line may be should hire you to make their advertisement!... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ladies were getting out of hand and twerking and playing private speakers very loudly. Security was call and shut them down! No I missed that and that's too bad. They would have made my review. I'm not afraid to call out obnoxious people. I'm glad they got turned in. 15 minutes ago, Nunagoras said: What a wonderful review, among the best ones I've read here on CC!

It could help fund my cruise habit. 😉 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare brillohead Posted October 3, 2022 #330 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Loved the whole thing, Greg! Thank you for sharing with us! And I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds Oasis class Solariums just too hot. They're a BEAUTIFUL space, but all that glass with no shade just makes it a big "NOPE!" for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered about that. I am now glad I did not buy it. I much prefer VSOP to XO. 25 minutes ago, Momof3gurlz said: I’m sad this is over and hope you’ll do a live or “as if” live from your Liberty cruise. Well you never know.

MissMap Posted October 4, 2022 #335 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Sea Dog, Great review, photos and videos! Although I knew from the start that you were already home, like others have said, the review really reads as if it was done live. Thank you for taking time out during your cruise to get the necessary info and photos for it. As a currently “dry-docked” cruiser, I truly appreciate your efforts . Thanks, MissMap P.S. A quick question… I cruise solo so do you know if there are any hindrances (reservations, pricing, etc.) for just one person to do the UDP? Your food photos kept making me so hungry during my late-night reading. TIA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw several people eating in the restaurants solo. The he restaurants weee never fully packed so there will always be room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catella02 Posted October 4, 2022 #340 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Excellent excellent review! I enjoyed listening to " Taboo." Never had heard it before. I like how you add little interesting things like that into your review. Really good job and appreciate your taking your time to write it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJSailors Posted October 4, 2022 #341 Share Posted October 4, 2022 @Sea Dog Greg- I have been reading your interesting review and I realize the time and effort it takes to write and post photos as you did after the cruise. Thank you. Both my hubby and I reached lifetime membership in Weight Watchers many years ago. We try to stay with the guidelines of the program- sometimes with success and sometimes not so much. At one of the meetings we attended,a woman,who had also reached lifetime status ,returned from a cruise. Much to her chagrin she had gained twenty-one pounds . So, in that context,twelve pounds is something you can deal with now that you are back home. We have found that cruise ship food contains a lot of salt. Wether we can taste it or not,we know salt is there. It causes a bit of water retention and that affects weight gain. Once you are eating your regular meals at home, the scale will go in the right direction because of the water weight. Wishing you good luck in your endeavors.
