I give him “E” for “effort” 👍

Eagle Beach in Aruba is beautiful. It’s a quick and inexpensive bus ride from the port.

Yes Mary…of course I remember…good times on that cruise, right? I’m sailing on Apex in December followed by a B2B on Silhouette in February and again on Apex the following December…can’t wait! tnm6217, thanks for letting us catch up on this dreary, rainy Chicago Sunday. Enjoy the sunshine 😎 Susan

Following along. Our group sailed on Equinox to the ABCs and Puerta Plata this past February and it was great. Sounds like you are enjoying the same excellent adventure!

Same…I will board with some Gatorade to keep in the fridge.

Cha-Ching! 😱

I am a meat and potatoes kind of girl…I am thinking about pulled pork slider trio, either filet or BBQ ribs as a main, baked potato (with a ton of butter to top it off)…and THE WARM CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE!!! I also love the burger but can do that at lunch on a sea day! Unfortunately, the friends that we are sailing with on this short cruise don’t want to spend $$$ for a specialty restaurant 🤣. My friend that is doing the next sailing with me along with the others that are joining us will be at LCG for day 1 of the second sailing. This is a meal that requires “expandable” pants…just like Thanksgiving 😋.

“Drunk crazed passengers” throwing furniture sounds like a Carnival passenger got on the wrong ship! 😱

My absolute favorite specialty restaurant…well worth the cost. 😋

We began in Honolulu on 4/26 so were sailing into early May. The temps were great…warm and sunny. We did spend some time in the Solarium one day midway across when it was windy. We booked side by side SVs so we could enjoy beautiful sunsets as we sailed east to Vancouver.

Let’s just call him “Bob”…😉

Also following along. We are doing a B2B in April on Silhouette. I am anxious to hear about your adventures and enjoy the photos. Susan 😎

Thank you for clarifying.

Sadly, it’s easy to be defensive as I have heard the term on these boards and on the ship.

As you didn’t include “LOL” after your reference to “the poor schlubs”, I can only assume that you truly believe that those of us hard-working individuals who sail solo in an SV (and are darn lucky to be able to do so) should bow and scrape when you or your contemporaries pass us in the hallway.

We did Tuscan the first night onboard in February…enjoyed it so much that we ate there again on the last night. The meatballs, filet and garlic mashed potatoes were delicious. I am a meat and potatoes kind of girl so Tuscan just did it for me!

I wear it so much it’s become “holey”, but it’s a reminder of a Cunard cruise so I just can’t let it go 😉

Thank you 😊

I had a workout shirt laundered on my first Celebrity cruise back in 2013. The sticker is still attached 😱

Thanks Jim. I think I’ll just pretend that I am back to traveling without technology…no phone; no internet; no problem! 😉

Wondering if basic or premium WiFi can be purchased by the day?

Thank you! I was able to rebook excursions and save $$$. This is the kind of thread I like to wake up to 👍.

A quick trip pre-cruise to Publix for Skinny Pop makes me a happy cruiser.😋

Wow…I thought Saturday is more than Sunday!

Which hotel? I stay at the Hilton Gallery One on Sunrise pre-cruise. Friday night is typically more expensive than Thursday night.
