ger_77 Posted August 24, 2014 #401 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I just heard from the lady down the street, who's sister knows one of HAL dock side personal who knows the chef. She said they HAL's apple picking fee will be by the apple not by the pound. And if you need a ladder to pick from the tree tops, there will be an extra charge according to how many steps there are on the ladder you need. Will we be allowed to bring our own ladder onboard as a carry-on, or, will we be able to purchase one in port and bring it on with us? Will HAL confiscate it along with our wine purchases and hold it until the last night? What if we simply used the hard-to-move-around footstool from our cabin? I think if we brought it to the base of a tree and DH got on the stool, while I climbed on his shoulders, we could eliminate the extra fee of a ladder. Just sayin' . . . Smooth Sailing ! :) :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about 4-star mariners - will someone pick the apple for them? We need to know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geocruiser Posted August 24, 2014 #403 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Apple ladders are not going to be a suite perk and as far as I know you can't bring your own. My husband and I think what we will do, is one of us stand on the other's shoulder to pick the apples. This way we don't have to pay the ladder fee!

We need to know this. I think there will be some apples in the Neptune lounge - but no one picks the apples for anyone. You want one, have to do it yourself:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NMLady Posted August 25, 2014 #406 Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) I have my apple peeler, I have my Pi plate (not a misspelling. I am retired math teacher and stepson gave me a ceramic Pi plate with value of Pi on it). But now I find out that besides a COREkage fee to remove the cores, I have to pick my own apples and there is a ladder fee? What's next, a seed fee for planting? This is getting less aPEELing. What happened to our receiving an already baked apple pie? Edited August 25, 2014 by NMLady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geocruiser Posted August 27, 2014 #408 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I just heard from the lady down the street who knows a women, who lives in Alaska, that spoke to a crew member who checks ID"s at the gangway that if you are sitting under a apple tree on board and a apple hits you on the head you will not be able to keep the apple. The crew member said that it must return it the kitchen. Sorry for the run on sentence, but I had to type fast because I have a apple pie in the oven!!!
