My View: A Symphony of Gratitude (Live Thanksgiving Week)

I think that once a cruise ends hijackings are acceptable.😇

Hubs loves his time walking around with nobody there too.  He does all his photos then so we don't have to later.  THen I join him for first breakfast around 6...LOL

And then comes second breakfast a little later which has to end in time to make lunch....😁

 

It’s as if we we live in the same house… 🤣  We could be somehow related.

WOW!!

Just found your live thread.  A little late, but I'm so happy I did.

Trying to catch up on all the reading now.

We have followed so many live reports, but none like yours.

You did a fantastic job with all of the photos and threads.

Thank you so much for taking of your time to do this.

 

Super excited now for our 2023 New Year's cruise

on Symphony.

Hello from deck eleven on Symphony of the Seas!

 

We are about to sail away from Port Everglades, heading toward the Southern Caribbean.

 

For those who are new to my trip reports, I will be posting TIPS in red for the skim-readers.  
 

TIP:  If I can help find any information for you while I am onboard, please post your request. I will do my best to follow through on requests.

 

I will likely fall a day or two behind, depending on Wi-Fi and our busy schedule. However, I will try to keep the report as “live“ as possible. 

 

Gratitude:

 

Since this is a Thanksgiving cruise, it will be great to hear what you are thankful for, if you would like to share.

 

We are extra thankful to be on this trip today, as we had to cancel Odyssey of the Seas in January due to illness.  At that time, we could not with good conscience say “no” to a couple of the health questions due to our son having a cough and sore throat.  

 

This is the replacement cruise that we booked with the refund from that canceled cruise. 🙂💃🏼

 

Thankfully, we are all healthy this time, and look forward to a great week on Symphony of the Seas.

Sorry ADPMOM that we have hijacked this thread so many times! 🙄

LOL!  I am not bothered at all about “positive hijackings”.  I love all the input and additional info to help future cruisers.  🙂  I enjoyed the tag-team effort.
