  1. From Wikipedia: Daisy Jones & the Six follows "a rock band in the 1970s from their rise in the LA music scene to becoming one of the most famous bands in the world and explores the reason behind their split at the height of their success."[5][6][7][8][9] The Amazon Prime Video series is based on Taylor Jenkins Reid's book of the same name, which the author describes was partly inspired by her experience growing up and by watching Fleetwood Mac performances on television.
  2. We have been blessed with a 5th grandchild. Grandchildren are ages 6 years, 4 years, almost 2 years, 7 months, and our brand new grandson. 💙 We are cruising with one of our sons and 3 of his children in late July .... should be interesting. 😉
  3. We have only been on one Carnival ship, Horizon. It was quite new and fun with a lot of complimentary food options. We will consider the Venezia.
  4. I don't care if they wear flip flops or flats or high heels or sneakers (I am a woman). Just relating my experience with flip flops, which was scary.
  5. I could care less what everyone else wears. However, I will agree flip flops can be dangerous. I caught one on a stair at home, fell (flew) about 6 steps, struck my head on the hardwood floor at the bottom of the stairs. Got a nice deep slit in my head above my eyebrow. Hello Emergency Room and plastic surgeon. So, move cautiously. 🙂 🩴🩴
  6. We have had the haze from the Canadian wilderness fires for a few days (we are in Northern New Jersey about 18 miles from midtown Manhattan), but this is the first evening we actually are smelling it. Crazy strong right now. Hopefully it is not too bad up North. ❤️to our Canadian friends. We have Air Quality Alerts ongoing from our Weather apps .... "Levels of fine particulates will rise into unhealthy for sensitive groups category statewide today and Wednesday and likely last into the evening hours both days due to wildfire smoke transport from eastern Canadian wildfires."
  7. I don't remember having to show the invitation for many years. And plenty of seats. Although not specifically invited, I don't think there is any issue. Enjoy.
  8. You can either just show up during the allotted MTD hours without a reservation or choose a specific time within the allotted hours and make a reservation. Reservations can be made in advance in the Cruise Planner. If the time slot you want is not available, go to the Main Dining Room as soon as you get on board. There should be someone at the MDR to assist with reservations, questions, etc. I doubt you will have any problem getting 8pm. You can also get on the waiting list for the late dining. Maybe you are already. Enjoy!
  9. My mistake. And I was only on the ship earlier this month. 😉
  10. Hi, we have been on bigger and smaller ships. We did like Liberty. Particularly enjoyed the show "Grease," the ice show, the heliport/helipad area, and the Viking Crown lounge. Enjoy!!
  11. OK. It was the opposite on my cruise and I can understand why some were offended. I hid in the back and did not stay long.
  12. We stayed in 12248 described as having large balcony but frankly don't remember how big it was vs. standard. We like deck 12. Have also stayed on deck 11 and it was fine. I would simply recommend selecting a deck with staterooms above and below, and mid-ship if possible.
  13. I don't think his flamboyance is the issue. He selects someone from the audience (normally a woman) and asks about where she lives, the # of bedrooms, if the kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, etc. Some people may not be finding it "funny," but rather insulting or denigrating.
  14. Interesting! We mentioned him to the CD on Liberty (who was previously the CD on Anthem) and the CD indicated he wanted Royal HQ to get Perry Grant on board. No question he attracts a crowd each night.
  15. We babysat our 6 month old granddaughter in Manhattan Friday evening while our DIL went with friends to the Taylor Swift concert. Our son was out-of-country. We got a kick out of how dressed up DIL and friends were. They got back at 2AM and we walked 15 blocks at great speed with our city "radar" up back to our car. Ha. Drove home without issue to New Jersey. And in honor of US Memorial Day. This is for my uncle who I never knew. Killed in the Battle of the Bulge, WW2.
  16. Not necessarily always. You can request to be at same table or in same section. It may be available. There is also an effort to sit you in same section. However, you can also request a different section / waiters if you wish to .... or if the section you sat in previously is full, you might end up elsewhere in the MDR.
  17. We enjoyed the RCI Emotions AI excursion just earlier this month. Lovely place with pools and beach. Lunch was included and it was quite extensive. Some drinks were also included. There were some local vendors on the beach, but you could simply say "no, thank you." No snorkeling involved. Enjoy whatever you do!
  18. Yes, drinks ordered in the Diamond Lounge use vouchers. Assume that is what you mean.
  19. On very recent Liberty cruise, the drink of the day was as Biker says highlighted (with description) in the daily Compass. There was also a sign at most/all bars. Here were some of the drinks: Port Side Punch Dark&Stormy Goombay Smash Mai Tai Blue Hawaiian Michelada Bahama Mama Rum Runner
  20. Captain on May 4th 2023 Liberty cruise was Captain Mal.
  21. Just off Liberty. No one ever asked for a card, but every photographer asked for the room number.
