AF-1

Good Morning Radio, I watched Allure come into the channel on the Port Canaveral web cam. Happy Trails and thanks for the webpost this week. It was fun reading everyday.

Cheers

Radio, how was your meal at Rita's? Do they make a good margarita?

paul I went to rita's with a group of 20. The food is not too bad; they give u a lot. two people can eat an order of fajitas. I don't drink; but members in my group who ordered Margaritas said they were very good.

This is how I post all pics to Cruise Critic.

 

1. All photos are first posted to my Photo Page. (Maximum 800x600. . .if larger -please resize)

 

2. I then begin a CC Post, and click on -POST REPLY-

 

3. I click on the Icon at the top of the Dialog Box that

is titled -INSERT IMAGE-

 

4. I open a photo from my Photo Page, and click on Properties...

 

5. I copy the properties from the photo and paste them into the

box that appears when you select -Insert Image_

 

6. I then click on -Submit Reply-

Thanks Radio, I copied and pasted your directions so I can use it later.

Never use the Cruise Critic attachment feature. . . Just us any photo editing software (I use MS Office Picture Mgr), and load them to your favorite on line photo gallery. . .Fotki, Webshots, or photobucket. I use my own server.

 

You should use the Photo Test forum on Cruise Critic to try it out.

Thank you very much

Radio, what software program or picture program do u use to post such large pics? I keep having to shrink mine so they meet cruisecritic's requirements. Thanks. Or do u just download you photos to a website and upload from there?

P.S. One of the people on our Roll Call was wondering if you can wear shorts to the M&M and the "rules" say no. LOL!! I posted your photo to prove that they could wear shorts.....:p

I wore shorts to M&M in Jan. Same place Dazzles

Hi Radio:

 

Love your review.

 

Are the cabanas in the solarium area.

 

What are the charges. Do you rent by day or by week.

 

Thanks

I believe the Cabana Radio is getting is on Labadee, not on the ship

So, does the 'Individual Glass of Wine dispenser. . .Just slide your Sea Pass Card" add a tip for self serve?

slide your seapass

I will take a guess that the movie poster is outside the movie theater; or theater, second guess, will be Boardwalk. I don't recall seeing the poster on my Jan cruise; so I am guessing here. By any chance did the Capt or cruise director show up at your meet&mingle? They were at ours in Jan. Just curious.

One of my closest friends is on this exact cruise for her 1st anniversary. Thanks for posting Radio, I feel like I am right there on the cruise with them. Have a wonderful time! (first post on CC. Yay!)

welcome to the board; you will have fun with Radio's live post

Radio, nice pics; good telephoto quality. Have fun. It is truly a great ship. I was on my laptop at 5am watching Allure dock. She came in around 5:25. I have to airline to Minn today; so I was awake and up. Also watched Freedom back into its berth in Port Canaveral.

This is so cool. I get to sail on Allure again, and never leave my hotel room. Just turn on my laptop and start reading. Thanks for the memories.

I was in 9723, four from the end; so u will have a little better view of the back of the ship.

Here is what we did in Jan. We told our room steward that we had a late afternoon flight. He said we could stay in stateroom until 9:30; however, he said if u wanted to eat breakfast, all the dining venues closed down at 8:45, so they could get new food ready for guests arriving at 11am. We left the ship at 10:30

Once you were in your cabin did you feel your feelings with 11729 were a non-issue? I have 11729,11727 and 11725 all booked for a Thanksgiving cruise. I would assume there is some sort of wall and/or staff area so the cabin doesn't 'butt' right up to the rock wall. Were there any obstructions on Deck 11?

You should be fine where u are located. Deck 14 has partial obstruction in the aft cabins. U should be good to go. I was on Deck 9 and loved it. There was a little noise during the day; but night time was fine. U will see people sitting on balcony across from you; u may see people in pajamas, drinking coffee.

We have 10725 booked! Any opions of it?:confused:

I was right below your cabin in 9723. If u look at my post above u will see a pic of our balcony. U will have the same view. you will love the views; and the cabin.

Here is a pic of our cabin. 9723 great view

I don't have a picture; but I did have it removed on Allure in Jan; your cabin steward has a tool to open them. the balcony has a door that unlocks and opens between the cabins.

I was just reading another thread where a poster mentioned having breakfast, at no cost, at Johnny Rockets.

 

Is this possible? If so, what time frame is breakfast served, what's offered to eat and is it really "free"?

Favorite place to eat breakfast was Johnny Rockets; you can sit outside on the Boardwalk; the food is cooked to order; the omelettes are hot; the pancakes are hot; Windjammer and Solarium Bistro; the food was lukewarm; Johnny Rockets was hot and free

you won't regret having boardwalk balcony. We were in 9723 in Jan; love the view and loved the cabin.

Your bed is by the balcony; we just got off Allure and our friends stayed in your cabin. 9624.

there are a few allure threads that mention people who were on deck 14 and the noise bothered them.

Thanks RoyalCruz. I have one more question. How far is the marriott from the port? Drive time?

RoyalCruz, did you say the Marriott Beach and Spa, is not close or within walking distance to anything? I will be there on 22 Jan; and was hoping to walk to a resturaunt. Thanks for any and all info.

RoyalCruz, can u give me any feeback on the Marriott Resort Beach and Spa in FLL? Will be staying there precruise next month. Thanks for any feeback.
