Mirror/Lighting situation on Regal for applying make up
BigWaveDave87 replied to HondaGirl05's topic in Princess Cruises
DW brings her battery/plug in lighted mirror that is on a stand for doing her makeup. It folds up and takes very little space in her luggage. Happy Trails π₯ -
I too was just on Discovery in mid February and was disappointed that Churchills was just converted to an arcade. Had to have my cigars on Deck 17 aft. I will concur with New2cruise that the area seems forgotten by the crew and is a mess and the furniture old, worn, and burn marks in the cushions. It was much nicer in the lounge. Happy Trails

No skin contact. Always a layer of clothing between the skin and pad. Happy Trails

We just did a cruise on the Discovery Princess in February. My DW has a issue with her lower back that is helped with a heating pad. I purchased some Therma Care air activated heating pads from Walmart. She first tried them at home before the cruise and found that the heating pad worked just as well as the electric one and it allowed her to walk around. On the cruise she would put one on before dinner and it lasted the whole evening and into the early morning if we went to Crooners or Take Five. We had no issues with taking them on the ship.

The only towel animals I saw on this cruise was at the towel bar by the pool. Still a great trip. Happy Trails -

No. This outlet has always been available when we have had the bed set up as a queen.

For those people that need a power outlet near the bed and don't want to run an extension cord across the floor a standard 16A outlet is located under the bed on the back wall. You will need to lie on your stomach to reach the outlet. You just need an adapter and make sure that what you plug in is capable of handling the higher voltage or get an adapter with a transformer. I used the outlet on a few cruise for a CPAP machine. The CPAP power transformer was capable to be used with the 250 single phase voltage. You will find this outlet closest to the desk side of the bed. This side of the bed is not moved when the beds are set up as doubles. I have attached picture of that outlet. Happy Trails

I checked with our server when I was ordering our last drinks yesterday see what our numbers were I was surprised at what the total was at that point. I hit 14 "Pick me ups" by about midnight and the DW at 9. She says she doesn't remember having that many drinks. Definitely Happy Trails πΉπΉπΊπ₯π₯π₯π·πΈπΈπΈπΈπΈπΈπΈ Here's to numbers 14 and 9 -

We had been on one the wine tours years years ago when I was buying a few bottles wine and the price was rung up in dollars. At the bottom of the screen was the peso total. The conversion rate was way in the shops favor. I pulled at a bundle of pesos to pay and the young lady who rung me up says "your paying in pesos?" and my reply was that is your money here right! I guess that most of the tourists pay in dollars. In any case the wine was a great deal paying in pesos. Happy Trails π· -
Discovery Princess Cigar Lounge
BigWaveDave87 replied to WhiskeyAndCards's topic in Princess Cruises
So the staff on 17 aft are not exposed to the smoke? Funny you should say anything about the staff when I have seen many of the Officers and some crew in Churchills lounge having a cigarette or two. Also you are incorrect about the "They don't on land" comment. Have you been to any of the Indian Casinos? It's a smoke fest. At least in the Churchill the smoking was contained in one room!

In the wind, rain, cold, hot, or humid weather that deck 17 aft gives us! It was nice to have a place indoors with some controlled climate even if it was smokey. Maybe I'll see you on 17 WhiskeyAndCards? I'm on the same cruise. Just left San Diego. Happy Trails π₯ -
