  1. Yes. Thats my problem. There are some really good Pinot Noir (had it for Seder) and a decent Sauvignon Blanc
  2. I doubt the ship stocks Kosher le Paesch matzoh. If you saw someone eating Streit's macaroons with tea, that was me. Then requesting rapid dinner service near 9pm Yes it was real Challah. We also have 2 loaves + kosher (yuck Manishevitz) wine delivered for Shabbos services
  3. How about a complaint that is totally my fault?? My legs hurt. Between climbing stairs, long hikes (5m+) every day in incredibly beautiful scenery, and not getting a days rest .... I'm paying for it. But at least I'm sitting on my square balcony (Caribe Deck) sipping a glass of wine watching this go by ... It's my fault. I'll own it. And maybe I deserve a massage
  4. @travellingnana and @grak apparently the 1st night they were offered bread and informed the waiter it was still Passover so it could not be on the table. She then said challah would be available every night at "their" table. So now they just walk in at 5. The 'checker' asks them to wait but the HW waves them through. Anyway thats what I saw the 2nd night. I can't eat at 5 and prefer Di Vinci anyway. So I go at 7ish and somehow I have 1 of 2 tables & same wait staff each night. They tried to seat me in another area once but it was so noisy I just told the HW I'd return later ..... now I'm in a quieter area (no shouting diners) with a great wait staff 😁
  5. I have friends on this voyage who just walk to "their" table in Botticelli every night at 5pm and their challah is waiting on the table for them .... sounds pretty much like TD to me. I can't eat that early / fixed timing or I'd join them. Would love to have fresh challah every night
  6. I'm sorry you went through that. On GOOD NEWS: food delivery is FAST today. No idea what the change is
  7. FWIW the bartender at GS says he brought a few bottles of Chocolate Block over from Vines. Just saying ~~~ (only missing 1 glass that I'm aware of😉)
  8. That's more believable. 253 cases over 10k persons (staff / crew / passengers per voyage .... last 2 voyages were about 7k of that count) would put it closer to 2.5% positivity rate. It's closer to 5% in my county so yeah, still safer onboard than in SF
  9. 37 out of 2200 pax & unknown crew numbers so less than 1.6%??? Are you sure it wasn't higher??
  10. I can't find any classical music. Guess that's because the Ukrainian musicians aren't here. Also found jazz once. For those onboard, where are you finding them? The pianists make it to piazza but that's about it. Guitarist in Wheelhouse. I'm ready for a new genre
  11. No. She didn't need scooter. I spoke with the Hotel Mgr & Bar Mgr and told them that they needed authority to cut someone off. Even if they had only had 10 drinks by noon. And I will also tell corporate. Guests behaving more like they're on Carnival.
  12. Yes @CineGraphic (Eric) that's her. We were all just watching on 5th floor
  13. I had to show my pass card 6 times. I counted. But I got there a little before 11 and on by 11. People are really upset today. Some blonde woman really upset, cussing out other passengers, swearing like a drunken sailor but an officer got her calmed down . Now she's pouting. Too funny!! Guess she could use some weed. Might be better than her table full of beer bottles
  14. For voyages that involve a USA port that would be the CDC guidelines March 2022 that Princess opted into. For voyages that involve a UK port it would be the UK Chamber of Shipping. For voyages that involve a European port it would be the ECDC
  15. 😅🤣😂I just love it when people who aren't even on the ship get to throw shade on my experience 😅🤣😂 I'm just doing the form (a whole minute of my life) and hitting the piazza for some music 🎶
  16. Thank you @Gimerfor the bookmark! Missed you today, hope you feel better soon
  17. Try Safeway (aka Albertson / Luckys / Vons) they have rapid PCR tests (aka NAAT)
  18. When you complete ArriveCAN you get a qr code. Princess staff came through line & asked to see it. I was then given a card that said I passed. 3 couples ahead of me were given stickers instead as they had not completed it. There was 6 more times that everyone was asked. Each time they re-explained it to those 3 couples slowing me down, each time I held the card up and was waved through but AFTER them. I can only imagine what it would be like if dozens or hundreds were not cleared. I got on in less than time than every before. But I was arrival group A and there shortly before 11am
  19. I hope so but in the meantime unless you want to be stopped 6 times instead of just flashing your pass card, it's super simple
  20. Yeah. Not going back. On another topic. Received this morning. Note address in step 8
  21. Smoke is bad in the casino. It's basically empty and it still lingers. Guess I won't deposit much there this voyage
  22. I was on just before 11am. Fastest embarkation yet. Several crew members went through line and handed out passes which i had to show about 6 times
  23. Sitting in PES with pink flowers on my luggage. Anyone else here??
