A side note about Santa and the Easter Bunny, they are ***** ********** **** ******. Our 6 year old niece walked into the room.

That would be a You Tube camera. BTW I’ve seen the videos and you need to brush up on your technique.

Sorry maybe 75 iff TV so passengers are loaded on.

Around 4,000 passengers with about 3,400 getting off. Priority for a lot of tenders for ship’s tours. The boats line up at the ship but the ship can only debark folks so fast through two exits. Also most of of the boats don’t carry 50 folks.

The tram is free for all. Unless something serious has changed. I have never gone in the ocean on Labadee.

Cruise ship staterooms have televisions? Interesting, I thought that thing was a one-way mirror.

11:15 - You will need a tender ticket. (You need to be on a tender at 10:30ish)

I've got the crew for these smaller 'ships".

The best part of bar hoping? Not as much peeing.

I tip $1,000 USD every time we get room service.

I hate this house and I hate you, but More than anything else I hate those Ducks! Don't you touch those ducks Norman! They were a present from my mother.

There is a place on the literary object that has a face for all this information.

I actually originally wrote that, but I backed it off to sound more diplomatic.

Servers like cash tips.

Yes. But… not officially.

1shot vodka 1 can Mountain Dew.

So, they're thinking us non-smokers need to start blowing cash in the casino?? (I'm an accountant, the chances of this are slim and none, and of course, Slim just left town)

I learned a long time ago to bring these two along. I will say that our steward has quite the mess to cleanup.

You show up in person the get the tickets. The amount of time to get to a particular number is a crap shoot. So called Water Shuttles(tenders) get held up all the time… rough seas, slow moving passengers and a variety of other things happen to make predicting the time very hard. If you don’t have a large group, you could consider attempting the trade with other passengers method. Bring out your best sob story. AND…Best to assure them that you will be buying a few drinks later that evening.

The ship has alcohol aboard. All problems solved!!!

Much to my wife’s dismay, I brought handcuffs as my gift for a gift exchange. As I always carry-on my one bag, I had to do some talking to the security woman. My wife walked away…

Hey they got a year off (Covid) to relax. Totally agree ships age, live with it. Then to the breakers . wife and I were just discussing the potential elimination of the Diamond lounges in the future. Our decision was it probably will happen and that will cost us, big boy suites only. coffee machine issues are frequently handled with a run on the Royal coffee shop or limited time access to the suite lounge. (On the ships we’ve been on with machine issues) even had the Diamond lounge staff running coffee orders from the suite lounge once. btw: the coffee machine is down because they ran out of half and half. 😝

Better update the loyalty pdf soon or folks will be bringing copies aboard.

I bring a bucket of powdered scrambled eggs and a bucket of instant mashed potatoes for cruises of more than 4 nights. Am I over packing?

You can use each others two for one coupons and 20% Diamond discounts to buy a number of sodas and other drinks at a discount.
