Is there a possibility that they move you to another room? 

Ha, I wish!  The ceiling damage was in the hallway, no damage in the room.  Repair crew showed up in minutes and repaired the damage within a few hours.

There is a Facebook get together this afternoon. Any way we can have a Cruise Critic get together?  I walked outside this morning. Wonderful. So happy to see the sunshine and calmer seas. Julia

I’m not on Facebook but I suggest we “piggy back” on that meeting.  5:00 Palm Court…

[Jinn]

I’m game. Anyone else?  I don’t know how many there are of us. Julia

@History&Wine and @Jinn, those of us ashore are with you in spirit. 
 

Enjoy the get together 😉

Random thoughts:

 

Seas are now mercifully calm.  Great to get outside!
 

A small group of us closed down the Avenue last night.  Really enjoying Neal Fullerton.

 

Tonight James Fox and dancers in the Galaxy.   A must see, even though I’ve seen it before.

 

Still waiting for a return of the late night chicken nuggets Rob introduced me to.  Anticipation….

They are addicting...especially with the lingonberry topping. Glad you're enjoying. 😊

FWIW, this message was just posted on the Regent WC thread. It may (or may not) be a guide to what Crystal may (or may not) have in mind, whenever a final decision is made. Check post #259 on the referenced thread above.

And I can guarantee as there that whatever Crystal does somebody will say it was wrong and/or not enough.

Hey Dwight, I just wanted to chime in and thank you for keeping this blog up. The first leg was so wonderful and I am missing everybody terribly. So your updates make me feel like I'm still there in spirit. Thanks again for your kind words. Jim

Interesting... might be my first sampling of chicken nuggets since the kids grew up...no guesses where they were previously acquired😀

Rob, my cousin and his wife escorted me around the sights, then we returned to the ship for dinner at Umi Uma.  A great day!  They received the notice on their phones about the earthquake while we were transiting waters around the Arizona memorial.  We didn’t feel a thing.

What is considered a proper tip, per day, for a butler?  I ate at Osteria and really enjoyed it. Had the sea bass. Will return. Julia

No offense intended to Julia, but I wish people would stop asking this question. Crystal says gratuities are included. Extra gratuities, if any, is very personal. Do what you think is right or don't do anything else.
