Yeah I hope you come back and post your video!

I would love to see it!! :)

Thank you so much for all your suggestions, hope to have a video soon as I got my Hero 5 yesterday Yea! Yea!. I found the "open the box", getting started videos on Youtube really handy. I think I will start off with iMovie to begin with for now and save under "Mov".

I know that 4k res looks fantastic, was wondering if you always use the full 4k, or do drop down 1 in your recording of some videos or should I go all the way with 4K every-time?.

This is usually after all the notices just like in Australian and New Zealand airports. Heaven help you if you are caught with it!!

I think it is $250 min instantly, or you could get charged.

Thanks! I am sold on buying a Hero.(y)

Love your videos. I think I will leave the canon to still shots and buy a GoPro Hero 5, would be better than the standard Pro for say videos on a cruise?.

I would not be using it for sports or such, and I have been looking for a HD video camera for months, I am only a leaner with video, but after seeing your video, I think I have made up my mind.

Love the time lapses, is that difficult to exercise?

Also noticed that you were walking with it most of the time.

What editing software would you recommend a learner to use. I use a Mac Pro laptop.

Thank you for posting your videos(y).

Go to Skywalkers and be the only ones at the bar.

Try to avoid some of the acts in the Piazza, last year some were great.

Never order a "Cobb" salad, Boring!

Mainly outside of MDR. We like it to be a surprises, overwise I think about a certain dish all day and then sometimes become disappointed.

Great idea, must check it out.

Always, always, always one!!!

My Steward confirmed with us that pre-booking specialty restaurants was mostly aimed at the ships that had "Share", and add to the rest of the fleet later. Princess is hoping that "Share" will get it's share of the early bookings. I am not saying that this is the case, only that it was what he said.

Yes, top notch as usual.

Thank you for your review.

Yes, definitely 2 & 4.

Well they need to report it properly, It is always confusing when people post things that are not always fully correct and then we get the negatives flying in because of it.

Thank you for posting for us. Have a great cruise.

You'll find that most passengers regardless of level are a pretty friendly bunch. Love of cruising is a common bond. Yes some suite passengers can be pushy and crabby.

Last year on the Golden, we noticed a lady who seemed always pushy and abrasive in the public areas of the ship, especially in the dining areas. Near the end of the cruise we found out from our steward that she was in an interior cabin not far from us and that it was only her second ever cruise.:)

Thank you all for the answers. Some interesting debates as well. I believe the guidelines are clear now and we will have no problem with the dress code after 6pm. I also think people should never be judged on how they dress, that is a personal choice and does not make someone better/worse. Have a great weekend shipfam.

Enjoy your cruise, you deserve it after all that. Bravo' to the posters, I always enjoy reading really good debatable thread with most answers not being too glib. At one point I laughed so much that I spilt some of my latte on our new carpet Lol.

It just goes to show how different we all are. Have a great Sunday.

Great photos! Thinking very seriously on booking a cruise that passes through the Canal next year. It is probably a silly question, How long does it usually take to pilot through the Canal?. Thanks.

Enjoying your review, thank you.

I find this thread quite amusing....I myself have only been on 2 cruises, so I don't have a lot of experience with these situations....BUT.....the vast majority of people in this forums, are always complaining about how people don't follow rules, etc, etc..... here we have a non -rule, and yet somehow its now turned into a "moral rule", that should be followed. Well...I disagree with the OP, in regards to the situation....if Carnival had a rule about no sitting in the Buffet Area unless you eating...and there were people playing games, then yes...those people should be asked to move. But to the best of my knowledge...no such rule exists, so therefor....there should be no expectation of people needing to move. Everybody is on a cruise to have fun, and enjoy themselves... Don't sweat the small things...and seriously...if you cant find a place to sit on a cruise ship....then you should probably think about a different vacation.

That was well said, hope you have many more great cruisers.

I have tried them many times on several ships not all Princess, I thought the standard of taste was not what I am used too. The closest I got to a reasonable one was on Oasis last year, still I have had better on land. The problem I have had mainly is the bad pickles have been sharper and the sauerkraut not correct.

Definitely not me. I was the one using the table to change a diaper. Had to. Mom couldn't make it back to her cabin in time.

Sorry, words fail me!:eek:

In the original post, This is me. I will sit down where ever there is an empty table. If someone wants to sit down with me that's fine with me. what happens when I cannot find an empty table with only 1 or 2 chairs available.

When it is busy, I have occasionally seen a table for 2 empty but no chairs to be found.

I always get jealous when I see people playing cards or Yahtzee at a table. I think to myself "Next time, we are going to just sit, relax and play cards".

 

That is after I have looked for an empty table and NOT found one. We just wait people out that aren't playing games and look like they are just about done. Or we ask to join a table. Cruising is not for the shy...

Very well said!:)

Wonderful Ship, now because of your review I want to go back again as it was impossible to do everything on the ship in 7 days. Good review.:)

Never had a bad dessert yet, but do wish the chefs would come up with a brand new exotic dessert every now and then. I love the creme brulee, but would give it up for something new and refreshing.
