I am cruising with my grandson on Saturday and he wants to take his xbox with him. Can someone tell me if you can hook up a video game to the TV without much effort?

Just got off the Vista and the Platinum and Diamond party did feature the free drinks. Just like always.

Only sail with Cove Balconies these days. Like other poster said just make sure you are not under the gallery. As far as getting wet, we have had waves up to our balcony only once (forget which storm it was but it was a major one and we were on the outskirts of it. Most of them have a lifeboat up above and it provides a natural shade when your hanging out on the balcony. Cove Balconies are private and allow great viewing of the water below. Also makes for great viewing of the "running of the drunks" in various ports if you happen to be docked portside, Very peaceful and night with the sound of the waves over the open sea. Would highly recommend a cove balcony.

Finishing up an Alaska cruise on the Spirit tomorrow and will say this, the food on the Spirit has been the worse of all cruises I have been on and I have been on a few. Had several passengers make the same comment to me. Food in dining room was okay at best but buffet food was just downright awful.

Seas much calmer now about 36 hours after departure. She is doing better now although she says she doesn't know if she will do this again. Thinking the scenery will change her mind over the next few days.

For those of you that have been on an Alaska cruise is the boat always rocking or is just a unusual event We left port at 4 pm yesterday and we have been rocking and rolling pretty much since leaving Seattle. We are on the Spirit now and DW is miserable. Just took dramamine so that helps. Should we expect this throughout this trip?
