lradle Posted January 28, 2013 #4981 Share Posted January 28, 2013 well come join us....three couples from delaware will be on board for two weeks feb 17!!! I finally decided we needed to try the Adventure of the Seas after many conversations on here with Robyn and Ocean Boy. We did a b2b last february..superbowl weekend ....we had a blast....the best service in the dining room in our 26 cruises. I have already contacted the restaurant operations manager to see if our waiters are still on board this ship for our cruise. So its very exciting for us. hope you will join us on board one day. Already have two weeks next year booked for adventure already. Did they do anything special for the superbowl? We are boarding AOS this Sunday!!

ckrobyn Posted January 28, 2013 Author #4982 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Did they do anything special for the superbowl? We are boarding AOS this Sunday!! They will likely be showing it in the Sports bar on the Promenade :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crisndeefromde Posted January 28, 2013 #4983 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Another "Dela-weanie" here looking forward to sailing on AOS! We board on Easter Sunday. Oh my goodness....I had no idea you were from Delaware!!!!! I refer many people to look at your pictures.... I guess we need to keep it a secret that we love to leave and go to San Juan and get on this beautiful ship!!! Hello from Smyrna!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crisndeefromde Posted January 28, 2013 #4984 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Did they do anything special for the superbowl? We are boarding AOS this Sunday!! They were showing it everywhere...in all the bars but the big party was in the ice arena...studio B...they had all kinds of nachos and hot dogs....drink specials on the beers....you felt like you were at the game! so good food and great people to share the game with. For some reason I am thinking the cd had trivia games going on during the commercials....you won't get to see the commercials so record the game if you enjoy seeing them. We had a blast. I ran into the dining room to say hello to the one couple who wanted to eat there while we were all in the pubs and studio b and to introduce myself to our wait team. dining room was empty...they expected it tho. Plenty of help in the venues to keep the food replenished even in the pub. We are going to be on board in 2014 for Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted January 28, 2013 #4985 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Oh you are torturing me!!! I wish!!! It would be fun to get together. Our lil ol state is small, but we still represent! I'm envious of you....AOS and b2b???? My dream! Your State isn't as small as this money hungry State that I live in where they constantly dream up new ways to get money out of my wallet and into theirs.:rolleyes::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frito58 Posted January 29, 2013 #4988 Share Posted January 29, 2013 1388 :D Great minds think alike! ;) (or at least mirror images!) :) Thats funny , actually it will be our first time in this one we have had 7388 on our previous two times loved that huge balcony , but felt like a change looking foward to this one. Never have sailed anything but aft on the AOS , guess you know the saying once you go Aft you never go back :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Vickie Posted January 29, 2013 #4989 Share Posted January 29, 2013 We'll be enoying1388 this coming Sunday. Will be interesting to live with the pole:) We had 1388 a couple of weeks ago. The pole is close to the bed and presented no problem, as it turned out. Plus, the room is the size of a JS, lots of room to avoid the pole. The metal superstructure piece on the balcony was a bigger issue. Very short me bonked my head a couple of times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Voyager Posted January 29, 2013 #4990 Share Posted January 29, 2013 We'll be enoying1388 this coming Sunday. Will be interesting to live with the pole:) Me and that pole have a long history together! ;) I've sailed with that pole in either 1688 or 1700 (same cabin, different class of ship) many times. It has never been an issue. More than once I've used that pole as a back support when I've put on my dressy shoes while wearing an evening gown. I may have also taken a "spin" around the pole on a few occasions....just because I could! :eek::D But, seriously, neither I nor my family have ever had a problem with that pole! It is a non-issue! ;) Nothing to worry about for sure! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I "bonked" my head on the superstructure beam on the balcony the first time we were in 1688 too! But only once! ;) I may be blonde, but I am a quick learner! I moved the furniture around on the balcony to restrict our movement in the area of the beam. No more head injuries! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing how companies and others can get away with this. I could go on and on.... Have you lived in R.I. all your life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the season they had...I'm ashamed to say I am usually an Eagles fan, but since our local superstar is in the superbowl I have to give him my support! I told my husband I'm all about the purple and black on Sunday....as usual he is opposite me and is rooting for the 49ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delacruz Posted January 29, 2013 #4996 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Another Delawarean about to 'experience the pole' in cabin 1688 on April 14th! Really looking forward to the aft view and the balcony - I guess we'll see if the structure bothers us much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrobyn Posted January 29, 2013 Author #4997 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I saw 7388 suddenly become available last week for my Feb 17th cruise and being the nut that I am, I grabbed it on a courtesy hold........went back to my roll call and announced that I was holding that "coveted" aft cabin :D Within an hour, I was on the phone with a roll call member from Chicago and just as I released the courtesy hold, she was able to grab it! We now have a very happy cruiser who is more than willing to show off her HUGE balcony on our cabin crawl!!!! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week we had 7390, and its s very nice balcony. But not as nice as 7388 (which I was able to snag for Navigator in Feb 2014). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
