Sorry. I could have elaborated. Were it I, I would have said "sorry, but this is way over done for me. Do you have anything MR? If not, can I order some other steak please?" I wouldn't eat a well come steak unless my life depended on it!

I hope you sent it back.

But don't each of these get cooked to order unlike a whole prime rib?

And a "prime rib" is a slice of a larger piece of meat. It's not cooked to order. And AFAIK from one end to the middle the degree of doneness varies. Yes, waste.

In Buenos Aires, we had a DINNER of two mains, a bottle of local wine and dessert for US$30!

I've long said I could live there.

Absolutely. And a recommendation rather than a rule ought to be enough for adults. IMneverHO.

Ditto.

I'm going to guess that you're not really 'into food.' Okay. I'm also going to guess that the people you describe are ship people not port people. Do they go back to the ship every day for lunch? From what I've read here it sounds like those buffets are mobbed at that time. To each their own but no thanks.

Where's that smile emoji? I love that.

Absolutely. I compliment the worker bees and then pass on to the queen. People are "quick to criticize and slow to praise" is something I rejected ages ago.

I thought I remembered something had to resort to my BFF, Ms. Google.

I couldn't agree with you more. On land, every day. We've been going to a great biscuit place most Saturdays by our farmers market for several years. The biscuits and staff are just wonderful. Saturday I got to go into the kitchen and thank the owner who was making biscuit dough at the time. It went way beyond thanks. We talked about all manner of cooking. It makes a difference.

Ain't it the ever-lovin' truth? A friend and I used to walk 5 or 6 days a week and take a bag to pick up trash. Far, far before we finished our three mile walk those bags were full of trash.

Ditto. And you're (one of my many) hero! Thanks.

Barcelona has some of the most wonderful food in the world! Why not find someplace near your hotel where you can leave your bags and have a GREAT lunch. It will be way better than anything on the ship, I'm betting. And I've loved O's food.

Smile 🙂 And the rhinestones were a brooch of my mother's and small earrings. Just tried to find a photo but couldn't. Very tasteful.

Absolutely anything that can be set up for auto-pay or the occasional pay online is. Always. I can't imagine what someone's credit card limit is that they would need to prepay.

Yeah, so when did bar soap become a liquid. If that, then what else.

A scary anecdote. Some years ago we were out of the country and some friends from the SF area came up for a stay. Upon arriving they discovered that the connection between the water line and the washing machine had burst. Water blew probably five feet across and blew a hole in the wall. The water was out into the house but not terribly far. They were able to turn the water off and no more harm was done. But we did have to replace all the flooring on the main level of the house. And a plumber friend told us if they hadn't arrived (shortly before it started) most of our house would have been totaled. Words to the wise.

That's brilliant! No wonder we women always have crushes on firefighters 🙂 And, here, I thought it was the boots.

We pick cruises pretty much by the ports so different cruise lines. So if their site said formal then we would do formal. No problem.

But as bad in my fashionista daughter's opinion is mandals with socks!!!!

Oh, sorry. I was talking about dinners. Like Sunday dinners.
