  1. There’s usually very little to do that day, as everyone is preparing for the Junkanoo parade that night, and/ or hung over from the night before. We’ve even changed our visit schedule to avoid Nassau on Christmas and New Year’s because of the disruptions to normal tourist activities.
  2. We’ve used a technique where two people in our party ask two different cabs for their fare, then go with the cheaper. Agree nearly all cabs downtown use a “sliding scale” pricing technique, where they charge what they think they can get away with.
  3. It’s called the Moon Bar. Have you ever been to a casino that does not have a bar??
  4. Promise them anything, but give them the shaft.
  5. But so difficult to plan against!! 😎🥃
  6. Forward, Deck 7. 😉 Best access to the Explorer’s Lounge, which is the venue we visit most often on a cruise! No seasickness issues (Sea Bands), and any gentle rocking rocks us to sleep. 😴
  7. The $5pp vans are located at the end of the cruise pier and at Atlantis outside the Royal Tower where the upscale shops are, just before you walk down the stairs to Marina Village.
  8. Which has nothing to do with their ability to spend dollars in Europe and their home country - where they’ll also suffer a conversion loss. Think of it from the recipient’s perspective, not the donor’s.
  9. Why on earth would you tip in US dollars when the cruise is in Europe?? I doubt many of the crew vacation in New York City!!
  10. Our experience is that onboard booking begins at the full rack rate and then discounts from there, so the deal looks more attractive than it is. We’ve even been quoted “discount” prices that are above what we’ve seen in recent sale brochures.
  11. I think you meant un-dentured servant…
  12. Shallow bowls in bathrooms often spill over and flood the floor, especially with cruise ship vacuum lines!! 😮🚽
  13. Hopefully you’re referring to watching the Shari Lewis puppet show!! 😉🐑
  14. Which for some can only be determined after you figure the “value” of the package calculated to 17 decimal places…😎🥃
  15. And the never-ending tipping debate…
  16. Right! They absolutely hate “extra” tips. I’ve had bartenders push the money back across the bar and say “Extra tips make me feel so tawdry!” 😎
  17. Moot point, as Viking does not allow you to bring a hair dryer onboard.
  18. In April, we docked at Terminal A. Simple, few amenities, yet clean and efficient. Definitely NOT a place to hang out or shop.
  19. If a manager can’t control the environment in his/her restaurant, then they don’t deserve to be a manager.
  20. Must be Tumi. We have the same, for the same reason. Just having a little fun with you. 😉🏴‍☠️
  21. Same here. I thought it was just our bad luck, but it’s typically after visiting Malaga, so the timing never works out! 😥 And typically after a full meal and a few drinks, we have not set our alarm.
