  1. OMG. NEW hand held hair dryer. Stays on till you shut off. Powerfull. You do not have to hold button constantly to keep it working.
  2. Picture of our table. But the numbering system can change cruise to cruise. When they rip down and terminally clean. If I were you I would request a table by window as soon as you can. If in a suite ask concierge. If not the minute you board before people get sea pass cards go to mdr deck 3 and make your request. Good luck. .
  3. A short story presenting the Pros and Cons on ; RCI. Stingray— Star fish excursion. PROS 1. The vendors that transported us was EXCELLENT!!!!! 2. Safety was their major concern. 3. Provide water and punch 4. Interactive was great with stingrays 5. The transporting boat was new, clean and they keep the number of guest to minimum. CONS: RCI YOU FAILED in your planning. We were to meet in theatre by 8am to get our sticker for excursion seating area. So they knew who went where. That’s where it got interesting. We waited waited 8:00am came and went 8:15am………………… 8:30am……………….., 8:45am……………….,. 9:00am…. We went down the steps to tender. Our directions were to proceed to white tent. We did Unfortunately the tour was waiting for us at red tent. 9:10am went to red tent 9:15am waiting. 9:30am we went to bus. 9:40am arrived at marina got our tour boat. 10:15am. -12:15ish. Stingray /Starfish 12:38 pm. Back on board. So my point is RCI. Why oh why did we have to wait 1 hour to go to tender. Then direct us to wrong tent POOR TIME MANAGEMENT!!!!!! I will present this at shore excursion desk. NOW PICTURES. Spousette Spouse
  4. You got it. I always remember WINE is always a great drink for all legal ages. But WHINE is a trait that follows retirement. Yes my mom was fixated on her blood sugar readings. (RIP). Later.
  5. Purrrfect. Now I will see what the morning report is at 6 am. For me. Everyone has their own guidelines. If in anyway puffy. I will take 20 mg. Just don’t like taking pills if I do not need them. I take everything prescribed by my doctor. . But procrastination in full swing. Tomorrow is a Jamaica day. So can help them (in drought) by donating of fluids. Later. Let the steps begin. Ne safe.
  6. One for sure. Amaretto Sour. And if I’m in the casino I might get 2. Last night was a painful night in casino. I had 1 Diet Coke 2 Amaretto sours. ADDENDUM. EXTRA ADDED ATTRACTION: Upon returning from excursion my Cankles were not happy. I developed some edema around my Ankle, since this morning. Now 2 treatments. 1. Eliminate the new variable. Amaretto 2. Take Lasix. (Furosemide). So now I put my walking shoes on and going to walki walki walk till I get 5,000 steps or 2 miles. Whatever comes in last. And drink more fluids. Sea you.
  7. I’ll look and it will be posted on my CC thread if I cannot find this one again. 😄
  8. Cruise Day 3. UPDATE. Morning Cankles report. So far. Eating healthy. Drinking plenty of water. Walk Walk Walking. I am happy to say no swelling yet. Have not taken lasix yet. P. S. Pretty Pedicure if I say so. Be safe. Next update before dinner. Leaving phones on board. Taking water camera Be safe. I forgot to say. We are doing stingrays and beach.
  9. Getting ready for out RCI tour. Meeting place in theatre @ 8M. Be safe.
  10. Good morning. My first sunrise in years. Also a picture of the print of my night gown. Purchased from a sale at Walmart. Definitely good for cruising. Definitely won’t be out of cabin sporting this one. Why did I buy them??? Close out sale. If I opted to leave them behind, the $4.98 cost was nominal Ok. Grand Cayman today. Waiting on room service delivery. Be safe.
  11. MDR for dinner. We were seated at a table for 2 by the window. Very happy with arrangement. The waiter and his assistant introduced themselves and asked if we had any requests or needs. Besides asking for calorie free food we requested no added salt. When we selected our dinner off the menu we gave the order to them. Including dessert. In less than 5 minutes we had our appetizers. If you ordered 2. They came back to back. Note; Shrimp cocktail not on menu every day. Portions were smaller than CK. Food was presented very hot not just the plates. Bread delicious as always. Dining hall was very clean. So clean a spider was on the ceiling, just hanging out. We were ok with everything but missed CK. We do not do specialty dining. We said we made arrangements when constantly being asked to buy a 3 day dining experience. For others who asked us about doing specialty dining—- We just said thanks for offering. And just let it go at that. I re do not know how they decide to use the empty tables in 5:15 seating. yesterday and today there were at least 1/3 off tables remained empty. I thought families with kids would want early seating. I betcha some would want a guaranteed time. Total time always less than 45 minutes. Be safe.
  12. HELP Lost. One Spouse I am sure he is around somewhere Yes. We are close to Cuba No floaters. Rafts ………not in your eyes Found him. Did not have to put him on a milk Carton OBSERVATIONS. I was surprised see how many family reunions on board and also 1 wedding. Many happy celebrations. Sad though no quinceanera Celebration on board. (😳) Be safe.
  13. The only cruise compass I will post. Why??? Transitioning new format. Coming to a cruise ship near you if not already there. Be safe.
  14. No Not swollen. I have been drinking a bottled water frequently. I drank 6 yesterday Walking. Watching what I eat. later.
  15. So went to pool. Some towels basking in the sun for 90 minutes lonely, no humans. Crowded. Aerobics class awesome but EXHASTING.!!!! Leg kicks twerking hand circled jumps twist Damn it was one hell of a workout. I was tired just watching. (Hee hee) Lunch now. Then slot pull. Be safe.
  16. we were told to go directly to our table if we knew it. He went to his table. Did not like. Took it upon himself to change the card table number. And the man who was blaming Maitre D For his mistake to not pick a dining time pre cruise. He would not let it go. The waiting in line was in venues on the PROMENADE Not MDR. byeeeee
  17. Freedom day 2. Cankle update. So far. So good. Status quo. Off to pool. Here it’s 9:14am. DST. 9;14. Not photographing till later. Be safe.
  18. Being a chatterbox and not being able to log onto the internet let alone CC was frustrating. I had some updates and hope I can remember them all. Service bad. To begin with I am amazed on some of the rudeness and entitlement exhibited by some. Take for example dining in the MDR. I observed a man not (gentleman) find his table did not like. Picked up the number plaque and switched it to the table he wanted. Or totally take 15 min and tie up the matte d because you didn’t reserve your table. It’s her fault because his family did not have a spot. But. He would take that table. She tried to tell him it was for another family. This went on and on. The next observation. Wait in line (ha ha) Just walk right on by don’t even think about waiting your turn. But the best is we are all gonna get where we go eventually. Please don’t bump push. The parents should take manners from the children. The few on board so far are well behaved. Well comparing Freedom to oasis class. Overall size seems large actually to me no difference. I miss CK. First night food in MDR ——-well really changed. I’ll adress this later. Luggage arrived after 5:30. Surprised by this. We have always gotten it by 3 on Allure. Let’s talk casino. Drum roll Well I did not smell smoke Smaller Some older machines Waiters bar service good. So I played. I won. 😁 First tax form. We had a time change. Fall back. Breakfast now. Later.
  19. Twonights gift from RCI 2 pairs of slippers. Him and her. I’ll add them to the collection at home.
  20. Dinner in MDR. We have not dined here since CK was established on Oasis/quantum class. And this is our first time back on a Freedom class. Dessert did not make it long enough to be photographed key lime pie. Rick. Shrimp, salad prime rib Sue. Salad, Caesar salad chicken.
  21. We docked backwards. Ambulance (running red ) and Fire truck just left. Ships horn sounded. We are sailing again.
  22. We were just updated that we are going back to Fort Lauderdale. due to a medical emergency. 😔
  23. We are moving south. Cruising ahead. And I know I can only pray. Because of privacy for person I will end the topic here. I am impressed by our previous sailings that incidents like this. Are not discussed. 💕
