If you buy  on board you can use OBC 

We always  double check with guest services that they extended the Medallion to cover B2B’s

The battery will start to die about 3 weeks in as stated above

You need a few hundred kids to liven things up a bit. 😁

Ha! Princess is normally good with keeping kids busy.

I’ll say the  mood is low on this cruise. 
I’m hoping for some Christmas Cheer and better vibe overall for next week.

**This is my 10th cruise this year and the quietist one yet

@voljeep I'll have a margarita in your honor today because I know how much you like Pancho's backyeard here in Cozumel just like we do.

Went to Panchos as we do every visit

🌴🏝️ ☀️ We  had a couple of 🍹as we always do, it’s my favorite! 

We are having a good time as well,  I wonder what it takes to completely ruin a holiday?  If it’s the weather that can’t be avoided but some people are never happy. 

 

For those interested tea sandwiches and scones are served in the pastry section of the buffet at 3pm.

Just in case you aren’t interested in the dining room. 

Be sure to put the Do Not Disturb on, it’s outside on the door panel.

This was the Buddha Bowl on the Ruby last month…it was quite tasty, despite its appearance. Did yours look much different? 

 

 

 

Oh! That looks nice. It looked nothing like that and missing about 1/2 those ingredients 

Beware of the Vegan/Vegetarian on Sky!

Last night I ordered off the Vegan menu, a Buddha bowl. It seems they weren’t prepared for anyone to order it so I waited extra long and received some make shift plated concoction that wasn’t in a bowl or looking much like the description. 

The sweet potato tacos at The Salty Dog on other ships are actual sweet potatoes but on Sky it’s a puree. Not worth eating baby food in a tortilla. 

Maybe just ask prior to ordering so you can temper your expectations.

  It’s not looking too good for your return home either. 

Anyone flying in or home should keep up with the weather. A low pressure system s developing which could cause high winds.l and storms for Florida.

I’m here for another week 

Also on board 

Last Night, Formal Night-

Deck 7 (outside) was set up with large  ashtrays for cigars. This deck always had lounge chairs but they have now added some bistro chairs as well.

I enjoy deck 7 but will just have to sit on the opposite said, no biggie for me. 

Another notice today this time Port Congestion at Port Everglades

In advance of your embarkation in Fort Lauderdale, Florida this weekend we have been advised that due to a large number of ships in port and events at the convention center, increased traffic congestion is expected around the port this weekend. As a result, guests may experience travel delays and traffic congestion on embarkation day. Guests with independent transfer arrangements should use the port entrances located at Federal Hwy (US 1)/Spangler Blvd. (SR 84) and I-595/Eller Dr if possible. We also recommend you check traffic reports before departing for the pier and, if necessary, allow extra travel time. Additional traffic police will be stationed in the surrounding area to direct traffic in and out of the pier. Parking at the port may also be limited.

We are on this weekend's sailing with you.  I was surprised to see the ports changed without an email of any type.  Luckily we didn't have any private plans to adjust.

Strange, I am on this sailing as well and received an email.  I wonder why such the inconsistency ??

I also like less people however, there are still 7 ships the day I'm there so I'm not sure how that helps us. 

7 is still a lot.

I’m on this cruise as well but have sailed this itinerary so much that I’ll be enjoying the ship while others fight the crowds. 

Hot Chocolate was available in the buffet for Alaska itinerary in August although it was broken for longer than it worked. 

Received an email this morning that the itinerary changed due to port congestion.

I’m ok with that since I would prefer less people in port.

It’s not open yet.

I have 2 upcoming cruises on the Sun, one in March and dining isn’t bookable yet. 

Spent last Christmas in port at St Thomas, things were open but closed early.
