  1. I was able to stream YouTube in the South Pacific and also through Europe and on the TA. Crown and then Regal.
  2. One of my first try's on bedside power station.
  3. Sure beats the cord on the floor technique. Found painters tape better than duct tape.
  4. This was a game changer for us. I used to use tape and an extension cord but now use this method. Mahalo for the information! We plug in a small plug bar to the adapter and run an extension cord to each side of the bed. From the bathroom side of the bed, we run a taped extension cord around the corner into the closet so my wife has power in the bathroom for her water pic. I have power for my Bipap. We pull out the bed to insert plug.
  5. We cruised on the Crown for 28days in the South Pacific. Besides the bed we had, YMMV, it was an awesome time. No sewage smell, no big problems.
  6. These are the only choices I've seen on tap. These are the only choices I've seen on board. Hoping for better selection on Sydney cruise.
  7. Mahalo for the tip. Just pre booked our Uber to and from. That way we can be there when the Sanctuary opens and book a few of the encounters. Platinum tour looks great, just a little too much of a day for us.
  8. We were able to get tender tickets for Moorea the night before. Meeting place was at Captains Circle Desk. I believe time was 5pm. I got there a 1/2hr before and was #1 in line. This was on the Crown last April.
  9. Tender tickets were handed out the night before for Moorea last March. We were on the Crown. Info was posted in the Patter.
  10. We booked this through Princess and I've booked through the Sanctuary the "Hold a Koala" picture option. After reading posts about the taxi cost and the upcharging on Ubers, we went with the ship tour. How was the crowds with the Princess excursion, is it worth gambling with an Uber? We will be visiting in April so was thinking it might be off season.
  11. Mahalo, just the advice I was looking for! Have used your blogs for port experiences many time.
  12. Had to prepay in AUD. Had gift cards and was unable to use them and had to use CC.
  13. We will be on a B2B cruise starting with a 10day Queensland, followed by a 30day Transpacific that ends in Vancouver. When does the folio switch from AUD to USD? I'll have Princess gift cards to put onto my account and would like to have them credited in USD. I know I can just wait till long gone from Australia/NZ and I'm sure folio will be in USD. Any idea if folio will close out after first cruise due to conversion to USD on the second? We're covered in that our CC doesn't charge for international fees.
  14. Our hotel has a $62aud pre pay taxi fare available. Please post what you find. After a 15hr flight might be a little fuzzy and a pre planned pick up might be a good thing.
  15. If you have one of the 2 packages, you can order from the Oceans Now menu on the app. You can google "Oceans Now Menu" to get an idea of what's available. We've had leftover OBC and ordered items from the Crown Grill to see how it would be delivered. As stated above, the food arrived warm but not hot. If you don't have a package, then it's a $5 charge to order from "room service" over the phone. I have no idea what that menu is.
  16. Ha, my wife uses that excuse to have me do the laundry. I get up to walk and exercise early and the laundry fits into breaks in that schedule. She gets a load of warm laundry dumped on her as her wake up call.๐Ÿ˜€
  17. The other thing we've found handy is a fold up hamper from the Dollar store. It fits in the outside zipper pouch of our suitcase.
  18. I know when I"ve applied cards I've gotten from my Barclays Princess card, I've gotten a check back.
  19. Or to Mt Saint Michel. If you can stand a 3hr bus ride both ways with 1 stop, it's a beautiful place. Unfortunately we got the "I'm French, so I don't need to be politically correct" tour guide. Thankfully I had cell reception and watched You Tube videos for the ride back๐Ÿ˜€
  20. So the second biggest shout out after "Bring on Lawrence Welk and his band" will be "Man OverBoard"๐Ÿ˜€
  21. I could watch that game with the ole Jer in disgust over and over. Love the Pack now that the wacked out dark room anti-vax alien believer is gone!! Go Packers! Of course Da Raida's will rise again๐Ÿ˜€
  22. We did 28days on the Crown in March. We carry a universal plug kit. We plug in to the plug under the bed and run multi plug extension cords to each side of the bed. My BiPap plugs in on my side. Your Cpap machine is most likely a dual voltage machine. I've also used an extension cord and duct tape on the floor to fix the cord to the carpet. Way prefer the plug under the bed. For your backs sake, I hope they change out the mattress's .
  23. Great News. Just set up by selecting bridge Cam and use Firestick remote? Mahalo
