I think I’m all caught up. Here is the rundown. 
 

Three people were removed from the ship in Freeport. Two for being rowdy. One for being dead.
 

An altercation during the second half of the cruise lef to the 24 hour security service on deck 1.
 

And someone from deck 6 was arrested in Mobile

Seems like a rowdy crowd.  Well….except for the dead one.

How’d you like it? I usually get it iced rather than hot.

Bravo 👏🏽 Excellent review as always. Thanks for taking along those of us who weren’t able to make it.

Remember how sad that Reuben was? Look at the picture they use to advertise the deli.

 

That’s a lie.

I don’t see what the big deal is about seeing a pic of @Saint Greg. There’s plenty of folks on here that haven’t posted their own photo on here.

I found an empty one but as I approached the lady in the one next to it was giving me a look.

She recognized you. She’s seen your picture.

I started with a Caribbean cofffee which has rum and Tia Maria in it. Not the best. But not horrible. 
 

 

Try the chocolate lovers coffee. That one’s good.

I don’t know. It’s been awhile. I just feel like there’s a huge difference between the last Reuben I had on carnival and this one.

 

 

The Reuben I had on Conquest was AWFUL. Like so bad I couldn’t even finish it. And it was on square white bread, barely toasted. Not my idea of a Reuben.  And the Cuban…..even worse (also on square white bread, barely toasted).

Never post, usually a lurker, but have to rant.  Took my first and last cruise with RCI.  The ship was beautiful, big...food, well I think that has been posted about enough, what I am ranting about is the customer service.  Went with Mom, Sister, and Brother, 2 balcony rooms.  On the 4th day of the trip, Mom gets real sick.  I mean real sick, so they transported us ( Mom and me) to the emergency hospital in Cozumel (if you could call it that).  Mom's lungs were full of fluid.  Caught a Rhinovirus on the ship.  No one's fault.  I AM SAYING THIS IN CAPS. THANK GOD WE BOUGHT INSURANCE.  Between the $2700 that RCI charged us for about 1 hour in the emergency room on the ship and the hospital in Cozumel holding us hostage (literally would not treat her without a down payment of $4,000 Then another $2,000 and finally another $1998 before they would release her the next day to an air ambulance back to Texas.  The RCI contact in Cozumel actually stiffs us for $6. Gave him $100 to cover the $47 dollars each Mexico charged us to come into the country he kept the change.  The contact's name was Daniel..  Not a big deal, but really....Never did hear from him again after he delivered the forms we needed for Mexico. Not can I get you a hotel, would you like some food, Not let me help try to get you home.  not spit.  The hospital was in the middle of a very poor neighborhood without any resources close by. At any rate, my mom is currently in hospice from this delightful trip and RCI has yet to reach out once to check on us.  On top of that, I have repeatedly called to get the release of her records from the ship, which I need to get the funds back from the insurance with no response other than to fill out a form and they are 6 weeks or more in getting the info sent to me.  I feel almost as if we were put in a lifeboat and were cut loose from the ship to drift away on our own.  Spent what I consider quite a lot of money on RCI and anticipated this trip for a year, but this company has no heart.  Never again RCI.  Worst of all less than three weeks ago I was on a cruise with my sweet mother and now we are preparing for her passing.  I am certainly not blaming RCI for her illness, just the treatment or non-treatment of us during an emergency.    MOST IMPORTANTLY BUY INSURANCE....CAN'T SAY IT ENOUGH

I am sorry for what your family was put thru during such a stressful time. Thank you for sharing your story with us. 

@dmet0225 so very sorry for your family’s loss.  Tommy sounds like he was quite a special person.

guy is playing sweet home Alabama. I tell leyla I’m surprised it took almost two days for me to hear it. She says she hears it every day. I know when the Alabama people are in New Orleans they’re extra obnoxious. I heard it three times in one day on glory.

 

 

When my daughter was in college her sorority was Delta Gamma and that was their theme song “Sweet Home Delta Gamma”

I was telling these people at the bar about how Carnival Spirit got its name. That when it was being built one of the ship builders was killed while building it… and his spirit haunts the ship. And when the seas are rough you can hear him whistling on deck 4.

Welcome to Mobile! Just started this so someone else may have beat me to the punch, but Moon Pies are traditionally thrown from the Mardi Gras floats in Mobile. Lots of smashed moon pies on the ground during parades. I don't live near there any more, but it was a fun time when I did.

Ok well that makes sense then
