This is good advice. I have done this and it does promote conversation.
Just to be clear, when I went to the RCL CC arranged get together, it was for sail away but not a solo only event....
NP but I was surprised that it was well planned yet that's what happened, it made me laugh actually.
I also waited for awhile, had one drink, then left.
I found the RCL people to be a tough crowd, JMHO. 😛
Yes, I am stereotyping...lol.
