hpecorari Posted March 24, 2015 #29 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Pix from M&G with about 60 of us, no chance or time for Q&A from anyone, introduced senior officers by JC Sanchez, CD n then they left. How convenient for them! Harriet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted March 24, 2015 Author #30 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Some pic didn't go thru, will resend them. Lunch in buffet, watched movie in altrium n back in cabin. Signal for T-Mobile is horrible here at the pier but usable from deck 10, so plan accordingly. IConcierge free features are good to use, strong signal, use it to book specialty dining where sodas are not from cans but from fountains only, with higher prices & 18% gratuity. sent from my Google Nexus 5/7 via Taptatalk Edited March 24, 2015 by mking8288 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted March 24, 2015 Author #31 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Internet plans are by data used, better deal than minutes. Didn't see much use in calling, some in M&G do and let them review later. Just download free app at home first. sent from my Google Nexus 5/7 via Taptatalk Edited March 24, 2015 by mking8288 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted March 24, 2015 Author #32 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Sun is out, finally get a chance to sit on balcony, noticed a few left their balcony light on for past 2 nights. eBag is an online luggage store with their own premium luggage, been using them for over 5 years, especially carry-ons and their packing cubes in assorted size, amazing when DW can pack 7 nights of clothes in a 22" rollers - excellent lifetime warranty. Breakaway & similar ships have lots of open storage shelves but no drawers, except 2 big ones under the sofa in balcony cabins, so they help in keeping clothings neat, organized & easy to unpack/pack, almost everything from a 22" suitcase fit into one shelf inside the closet - very helpful with 3 or 4 to a cabin. Next week is Spring break, my advice is to plan to use the MDR to eat if you can, buffet can be mad crazy full, O'Sheehan is serving Chicken as specials tonight, Garden Cafe is Steamship & Country Western tonight (last night was Seafood & BBQ Ribs) Two elderly ladies sitting in the buffet next to us joked ? are looking for (still) lobster at lunch today - food is SUBJECTIVE, make sure all the free options. Sure looked like those with UBP are making good use of them, even at breakfast time, LOL. sent from my Google Nexus 5/7 via Taptatalk Edited March 24, 2015 by mking8288 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack704 Posted March 24, 2015 #33 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Just an FYI: mking8288, none of the pictures you are posting can be enlarged enough to be readable. At least on my iPad. Anyone else having the same problem? Thanks muchly for your review. Following intently. Love food porn and menus etc. Just can't see them.

Following intently. Love food porn and menus etc. Just can't see them. Harvey Got it, Harvey - checked it while relaxing & watching movie, poor T-Mo signal inside the ship's steel hull, going to re-pose as much as I could with minimal comments, pictures speaking for themselves. If I can take some questions later before we sail at 9PM & then lose coverage completely, I will try to answer & help out - knowing some of you are sailing next week or after, or simply can't wait.

Rare mking8288 Posted March 24, 2015 Author #35 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Issues with the image/attachment upload might be with Tapatalk's app/software conversion, going to take a quick look to see what I can do, with slow speed & handicapped access to Dropbox/Cloud storage, will do the best I can and/or reload them after we can back this Sunday. This/next pictures are from MDR - embarkation lunch & served also daily - popcorn shrimp & salad with chicken was good. Poached salmon is good, ordered it 2 days in a row for lunch. sent from my Google Nexus 5/7 via Taptatalk Edited March 24, 2015 by mking8288 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
