Best pastries if you’re looking for them are still in the Lido…not to mention warm sticky buns!

Are you going to be on the V of V? We will be and will look forward to seeing you both if so!

She never had really good clam strips (not breaded!)…Scituate, MA and Salem, MA have some of THE best strips!

Hooray!!! Thank you for your helpful posts!

Yuck to bellies! 😝

Looking for restaurants with fried clam Strips(no bellies) in Boston (near Long Wharf), Halifax (near or on the harbor walk area) or Bar Harbor near where ships let you off. Limited mobility for walking more than 1/2 mile. Thanks.

Looks like the Future Cruise people are still in the middle between the Exploration Cafe and the Explorers Lounge...is the library around the Exploration Cafe still intact?

You can stuff quite a bit in a bag so we always roll stuff...even though we're 5*, I still don't want to constantly send stuff out each day...about 2x week works for us. so 10-day cruise would be about $40 if you did it by a $20 bag. (Just off the NA and they did a great job.)

There ARE no tipping rules above what is automatically charged! That’s why you won’t find them.

Homosassa’s response should end this thread. Absolutely correct!

We shrink wrapped our luggage we sent on ahead for a WC…Made it to the cabin fine. Thought it might help against theft along the way.

Varying by ship and itinerary. NA had about 1/3 on our Panama Canal cruise last month, but K’dam a little over half full in January HI cruise.

All the ships’ food varies from one ship to another. Just had great pizza on the Nieuw Amsterdam but had poor on Koningsdam…Dive In was very good on both. Never! Order Lobster on board! Do a cruise that gets you to Maine or Nova Scotia for real lobster that is fresh…big diff! MDR also vary a lot ( as do sticky buns)…so just find what your ship does well but don’t judge all ships as being equal…they aren’t.
