We've sailed the NCL Jewel to Mexico and the  Carnival Legend to Alaska. Jewel was ok, loved the Legend. Like the food better and enjoyed the comedy club. We were never bored. Liked the ship enough to book it to the Caribbean this year.

It has been done to death and is just annoying at this point.  Just google the YouTubes for it.  

There is much worse things to be another at than a kid having fun with a costume. Sarcastic Mama your daughter will grow up too fast, enjoy the times when she wants to be silly and innocent.

Winter weather in the Southern California coast can be quite variable. It's December and we are going to be in the mid 70s. It's not tropical but it's usually quite mild. Unless we get a storm front rolling down from Alaska or its an El Nino year. A light jacket and dress in light layers and you should be fine until you get to more southern latitudes.

Hello everyone,

 I thought I would tap into the wealth of Knowledge on the Boards. I'm looking for suggestions for excursions for someone with limited mobility. My MIL walks with a cane and can not do anything very strenuous. so I'm looking for something that the In-laws can do on their own or something that we can do with them that would be interesting for all. I've searched the boards and could not find anything specific to Belize. Suggestions for Roatan would be appreciated also. TIA

That's a dikfer

Ok I saw the movie, but i"ll ask anyway. .....What's a Dikfer?

I hope they offer this on all the ships, perhaps rotate the offerings. One of the things I enjoy on vacation is the opportunity to try new foods. Whether or not i like them, at least I had a chance to try them.

You buy it on the Carnival website in the Fun Shops. It's on board credit that is applied to bar purchases only. You can also purchase Cruise Cash which can be used for any onboard purchases.

Our experience was that the Alchemy bar was fun but we really liked the Steakhouse bar if you want to try classic cocktails.

 

I also tried a couple of drinks that I didn't like so I just didn't drink them.

 

Our MDR waiter was a great source for trying new things. He really knew his liquor. Discovered that adding just a splash of sprite to scotch makes it taste so much better if you don't care for scotch. He turned us on to a good champagne and I think by the end of the trip we had emptied the ship of it.

Sprite and scotch.........nooooooooooo!!!!!!:loudcry: Jk. Glad cheers worked out for you. My problem is they require all adults in the room to have cheers, it would work for me but for my wife it would not be worth it.

Thank you all! Some of these replies made me giggle but most made me feel better! He definitely doesn't want to wear it, LOL, but his suits just don't fit him right and *I* prefer the uniform. I'm a mean wife. But I really love dressing up!! I just wanted to make sure that it hadn't gone completely out of style...that would be unfortunate!

I told my wife that I'm just bringing dress slacks and a button down shirt on our upcoming cruise. Then she corrected me and said I was bringing a suit, .........so I'm being a suit.:D

Thank your Husband for his service. Dress up and be proud and have fun, you deserve it. You will not be out of place.

Booked Western Caribbean Oct 2019:D:D:D!😀

Welcome and congratulations on the cruise! Best wishes on your recovery.

Not a silly question. On the home page if you click on the main banner on the sales/specials you get a calendar view. I have not seen it for the other cruises.

And here in Canada we go to the washroom as opposed to the restroom. Who goes there to rest?

Sometimes things are so hectic around my place that's the only room you can get any rest in.😁

Oops double post

I'm not a fancy coffee guy. The lido coffee was fine for me. It was hot, had caffeine and in a pinch you could use it to stain wood😀

We frequently get email and the occasional phone call. You might want to make sure your account info and settings are up to date. As far as needing last cruiser, I'm sure they feel our money is just as good as anyone's

The website says they have The regular bonsai on board. Very reasonable prices and decent quality. You should be able to order to go.

Thank you for the time and effort put into creating this. Very commendable.

Thanks for the review. We're doing the western Caribbean next year. I'll have to check out the sailing in Grand Cayman and Nachi Cocom.

My experience has been you can substitute an extra appetizer for a salad or side, or an extra side for an appetizer or salad, but that you can't order more than 3 total appetizers, salads, and sides.

 

An extra entree will incur an upcharge.

 

It's a lot of very good food.

thank you, good to know

Can you get more than one appetizer or entree like you an in the MDR?

Good luck and let us know how it works. One of my favorites.

467 yikes!

Because of your parents ... but there would also be enough to suit you.

Thank you, The wife and I are pretty easy going when it comes to things to do. While I know they would appreciate that we took them on a cruise, I just want to make sure her parents have a good time too.
