If you can find the Lavazza capsules, they will work. Kureg and Nespresso will not.

Proprietary capsules. You can get them on line, but we took a chance on the room steward, which worked out fine.

I’ll wear my special ring for you to kiss.

Just turned on our last cruise, and I wasn’t going to wear our pins…. But thanks to the vitriol against pinnacles, I will certainly wear it. This reminds me of the lanyard discussions, where people were Soooo upset that people would not use their pockets. All I can say is if you are going to let someone else’s appearance ruin your vacation, you have some serious problems. As for the crew, when anyone noticed we were d+, they would not stress out at all. It’s how they are treated that stresses them out, so be nice. We had a long talk about being a pinnacle to a bartender we were friends with- and pointed out that the crew is a significant reason we have cruised so many times to reach pinnacle- he got that, and appreciated that.

So becoming friends with the crew is not allowed? That suck, have to tell our friends who are crew that we are not allowed to be friends. They can easily get to know people and interact with them- they are not on duty 100% of the time. Let alone the repeat cruiser crowd- he sees a lot of passengers many times as they repeat cruises.

On the bright side, imagine replacing all of your clothing while you are in Italy! Can have some great style for this cruise....

Do you like the Aqua show? Normally, on Oasis class ships, they have the top tier party at the Aqua Theater, and for us has always had a short diving show as part of it. Otherwise, it's some free alcohol and talk about cruising.

Liked- the end Didn't like- everything before that.
