localady Posted March 15, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Okay, after as many cruises as I've taken with HAL, you'd think I'd know the ships fairly well. :rolleyes: Well today I received confirmation of our CC get together from HAL and they said it would be located in the "Captains Corner"....:confused: "Captains Corner".... that's a new one to me. I suspect it is the port side of the Crow's Nest where we have many times held these get togethers, but I thought I'd ask the wiser and more knowledgeable Mariners among us....;) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazy Kruizers Posted March 15, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Actually there is only one door that closes. The front part that goes into the Crow's Nest doesn;t have a door -- just a low partition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localady Posted March 15, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Thanks for the clarification, in all my time that was a new term for me! :D Is the Captains Corner also used when the Captain is naughty?? ;) :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidson Duo Posted March 16, 2010 #5 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Is the Captains Corner also used when the Captain is naughty?? ;) :eek: LOL. Very much enjoyed this post. I see a big red circle on the carpet and a sheepish captain sitting on it saying "what do you mean one minute for each year of my age????#&$!". :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomc Posted March 16, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I always thought it was a euphemism for "water closet." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted March 16, 2010 #8 Share Posted March 16, 2010 One time we were sitting in the main section of the Croe's Nest enjoying an after dinner cocktail when 2 officers came in. They stopped by the bar and ordered drinks and then went to th very back of the Captain's Corner where they sat and chatted over drinks. I was headed towards the ladies room when I saw the 1 officer use his cell phone to call the bar -- he needed more vodka added to his drink. It was all I could do from bursting out in laughter. And he didn't talk softly either -- even my husband heard him yelling into his cell phone about his drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeriatricNurse Posted March 16, 2010 #10 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Yes, it's that small section on the port side that has some extra glass walls and closable doors.
