.........you must speak those immortal words from the movie "Godfather"...."Do you know who I am?"...............err, never mind you probably know what happened to that person in the movie........:eek:

...........one reason they did away with trays in the buffet lines as well as went to smaller plates was to control the "excess" amounts of "free" food people took and did not consume....oink oink.....

Charging for popcorn to me is absolutely unbelievable. Just looks tasteless and greedy. When we sailed on the Allure 4 years ago or so it was definitely included when they were showing movies or other entertainment outdoors. I dont like popcorn and wouldn't eat it anyway but that's a huge turn off they would charge for 5 cent popcorn

.....they may charge for popcorn just to "control" it's dispersion.....meaning when something is free it is usually abused and I can't imagine anything worse for the crew than trying to sweep up popcorn all over the ship. The crew has enough to do as it is.

How about harmony has the ability to make fresh drinking water out of salt water but they do not do it because the ship carries enough shoreside water to meet needs. Do you know what the bulb on the bow is used for?

............I thought it was that giant garden water hose that is dragged behind the vessel from port to port. If you look closely there is a gigantic hose reel at the original home port of each ship that unreels as the ship sails. It is often disguised as a large building. Don't be fooled.......;)

............if you are very thirsty can you get a stool at the Schooner bar also?.......;)

No, but they might object to the microwave you brought along.:p

...:D............probably not the microwave but rather the extension cord needed for operation....:eek::D

.........please no more of those Rubenesk men.......:eek:.......looking at the contestants you see why the ice cream machine was "looted"......;)

................do you think they will call me down to the "naughty room" if they catch me smuggling pop corn in my luggage? In the future I can see RCL allowing a two bag carry on pop corn allowance.....:cool:

csm2000 get ready for the broadside........DUCK!!!!!!!:eek:

RCI web site has been on vacation for the last hour, where does it go when it takes vacation. ;)

Moscow???:eek:

I agree with those who recommend Disney BUT in our household we found the kids club superior for kids to about 8 and then RCL from that age onward. Disney kid's club is more structured and RCL has more "freedom" so the kids can chose what they want to undertake. Both are great choices. :)

........it's the RUSSIANS!!!!!:eek:;)

...............mutiny comes to mind..............:eek:

I've never had a problem bringing sealed cookies, crackers etc. through customs getting into the U.S. so long as it is sealed in it's original container. I never bring fruit, meats or anything on the banned list. With anything to do with the customs it "depends" I guess.....Good luck on your trip and happy vacation.:)

DITTO! Richard Spacey for me too

............me too.....spacey leaves them all in the dust.......Seymour? arrogant fool......

I don't know how long my fitbit battery lasts because it is still in the packaging from last Christmas.....:eek:

Handcuffs...hmm...;o)

............I suspect the mask and whip got through......:eek:

Holy crap, cocaine is expensive there! That's about $333,333 ($243,465 US) a key.

............you should see the size of the "lines" those kangaroos can snort....massive.........:D

Does anyone know if the Bahamas have orange jumpsuits or the classic white with black stripes? In the summer heat are shorts part of the outfit? I hope someone can post the "mug shots"........

..............they forgot to inform you that the ship will be picking up a load of E.U. "refugees" on your return......they hate taking the Chunnel.;)

...................if they smuggled an illegal drug I suspect they aren't that "good" Where is Richie Cunningham when you need him????

My point is they were in international waters...at sea...when the cabin attendant found their dangerous contraband, but were delivered the following day to a foreign country in which they committed no crime. I understand foreign countries have different laws. I understand they were stupid for bringing a small amount of a pot with them on a weekend cruise. What I don't understand is why Royal had to go the route they did...rather than escort them off the ship and send them on their way, they chose to call in police from a country that had no interest and no gripe with them.

........maybe to set a precident for future cruisers.....no means NO!.....As the saying goes "If you can't do the time than don't do the crime". Maybe the arresting police can give them some puppies and a safe space......:D:D:D

So after reading all these stories, I actually think the one about domestic abuse rings most true to what I have seen/heard. On a couple of occasions we heard loud arguing and saw them opening the door and recording stuff too.

 

very sad...:(

............maybe one of them was "bogarting" the joint. Nothing worse than a selfish spouse man.......bummer.......

Midnight Express (movie) comes to mind. :eek:

..........or "Deliverance".....................:eek:

Could be one of those "Russian hackers".........:eek:
