You mean tissue paper on a toilet paper roller, right?  😁

We don't call it tissue paper. Its TP or toilet paper. But yes.

11 days

are we always cruising at the same time or are you always cruising?

8 DAYS!

body wash, hand soap. if there is anything else in a regular room (non-suite) I haven't seen it.

Well, toilet paper also

drinking liquor straight because I don't know how to make nice cocktails.

Computer screens really depress me.

Driving.

and when I throw my towel on the floor it is still sitting there when I come back. sheesh!

It is just so sad. I am praying for all those effected. It is chilling to see all the missing names.

and it is locked now. I wish an admin would make a final post in threads stating why (if they can) the thread was locked.

I buy the drink packages and excursions ahead of time. Usually my biggest expense is the spa. They dont really offer many deals beforehand. The ones on board are usually better.

savory bites are just bagels cut up. Read it here, confirmed on board a few years ago. They are just ok. I love the breads they serve at dinner so much more. 

I have my own selfish reasons for hoping for smaller ships. Baltimore is so easy to get to and it sails full constantly. With the selling of grandeur I have to assume that Enchantment isn't far behind. What is left that will fit under key bridge? Majesty?

Better yet a new port down below the bridge...

Tendering Quantum class is pretty tough and Oasis class doesn't do it - it has yet to be seen if Icon class will visit tender ports.

I had no idea that Oasis class doesn't tender. Wow!

If your cabin hasn't been assigned, how can they help?

You've got a long time to go. Wait at least a week

meaning I could call when I am putting the tags on the luggage. Thanks

I've had a cabin change 3 times from the time we got out of the cab, waited to check in, and finally got changed again before climbing aboard.  I just kept checking at the original cabin doors for our luggage.  No big deal, but you've got plenty time!

When is your cruise?  You may still have enough time to get your assignment beforehand. 

 

If not, the porters at the pier can tag your luggage. They will have your number. 

it is the 19th. I guess I can call to find out also?

This is the first time I have ever done a gty room since we are taking a short (cheap) cruise this month. What do I put on my luggage tags? I don't know the room or even the deck.

TIA

thanks guys, we will just shop by the pier. Thanks so much!

Lots of shopping options on the piers or downtown, which is about an $8 cab ride from the piers.

 

PDC can be fun, but you will not find anything there that you cannot find on Cozumel. If you don't want to swim there are ferries. 

oh I didnt know there was shopping right on Cozumel.

Cory Rogers - he went to Navigator after finishing his stint on Grandeur and will be on Freedom next.

thanks! He did such a good job. 

hahaha. I just looked at a map. Looks like we would have to swim, LOL

Next month my dd and I are going on Indy for a short 4 day cruise. We are booked for a 3.5 hour ATV tour and she wants to go shopping afterwards. Is it a long walk from the cruise terminal to the shopping district? If we have to catch a cab, are they reliable? I have anxiety and fear being left behind. 

what was the name, and what happened to the guy who replaced the Blairs on Grandeur over the summer while they were gone? I loved him. RCCI stole him from carnival.

Radiance did it the other month sep 20 TP and is Free , pork ribs, chicken and snags all cooked on charcoal 

you know what, you are right. I remember charcoal on either Enc or Grandeur for a cookout one July 4th. Maybe they will be able to give us real bbq...

How can they charge 2.50 for a ice tea,  ice tea is free all over the ship.  Second thought, who would pay for ice tea when 25 feet away at Loco Fresh it is free. Other then that it looks pretty good.  $8 for a turkey leg is not bad, last one I bought at Disney World was $12. Just have to hope it really is smoked meats. 

maybe this is REAL iced tea and not the crap they usually serve?

I still don't get how this is going to be good/real BBQ.
