Crusin Karen Posted April 18, 2015 #151 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Have never ordered room service, but the shrimp salad was on my "one of these days" list. I guess it's too late now! :( This is making me even MORE excited to finally set sail on Pride! What were the Platinum gifts? LOVING this beautiful NJ weather this weekend! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorisk3 Posted April 18, 2015 #152 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Thank you so much for your review. We were on the same sailing, and it's great to relive our trip and see some familiar sights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jamman54 Posted April 19, 2015 Author #153 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Love you review! Thanks so much! We sail next week. Do you have any Fun Times that you can post. Thanks! Thanks for reading. I might post all of the fun times later in the review. I always read your reviews and am excited to read this one! Booked the Pride this past week for next month (I never booked this close to sailing!). Have been on her several times in the past and excited to see the upgrades! Can you tell me where the Bonsai sushi is? Can place where it's at. You will love the upgrades. Bonsai Sushi is located on Deck 2 starboard side, just off the atrium.

NoDayButToday Posted April 19, 2015 #156 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Here are Dian Ayu and Neichulu, my two favorite ladies at the Serenity Bar….. I hung out at the Serenity Bar until about 7pm, and then made my way back to the cabin to get ready for our first night’s dinner. I stepped out on the balcony and saw that we were about to sail under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge….. To be continued…… Dian Ayu was our favorite bartender on the Pride back in February. She treated us very well and we were definitely frequent customers of hers. Nice to see her smile again, and loving your review so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, they are trying a new room service menu on several ships, the Pride being one of them. There are several LONG threads on this subject to be found here on CC.

absolutely brilliant Posted April 19, 2015 #161 Share Posted April 19, 2015 We saiied Pride out of Baltimore July 2010 & they had Karaoke every night in a lounge that was directly beneath the piano lounge but it looks like now it is in the Butterfly same as comedy so I guess there's no late night Karaoke or Legends show? Thanks for the show schedule. My DH loves night time deck parties so it looks like he will be happily chugging down the pepto after devouring those spicy delights at midnight Any good movies 2 more weeks til blast off. Can't wait to read more of your fabulous review. GREAT FOREPLAY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eas2225 Posted April 19, 2015 #165 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Thank you so much for this review! I too will be on the Pride in five weeks, for the fourth time. We met Ayu and she is one of our favorites too! We were hoping she would be on this next cruise, so I was so happy to see you got a picture of her. Can't wait to try a Guy's burger!

JMHAM1 Posted April 19, 2015 #169 Share Posted April 19, 2015 It may just be me but it seems that there is an improvement opportunity with the Muster drill. That seemed like a LONG time to stand out there waiting. Other lines have it down pat quickly AND they take the time to either swipe everyone's card or check them off a room roster. I cannot imagine how difficult it would be for me to keep the little ones quiet for that length of time. I'm all about safety and realize this is very important but goodness! Starting over 30 mins late? Crazy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting over 30 mins late? Crazy!! I think you misunderstood me. The drill itself started 30 minutes after it was supposed to. we were not outside waiting for it to start. We were only out there 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazycruzer68 Posted April 20, 2015 #171 Share Posted April 20, 2015 It looks like it was cool on sail away day, how was the weather the next day? We are going in early October and I plan on the sail away to be cool but hoping the first full sea day isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorisk3 Posted April 20, 2015 #172 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Did we get a chance to meet? No, unfortunately not, I saw you and your family pull in when they started to let all the cars in, but that was it! If I ran into you I was going to thank you, in one of your earlier reviews you wrote about your cabana and I booked one that night. Even though we were in boarding group 3, we lucked out and got the last remote cabana-15. I never would have known about it otherwise, and it was a highlight of the trip for me!

Rare mitsugirly Posted April 20, 2015 #174 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Subscribed. I love to read reviews of cruisers on the same cruise as me and get their perspective. I'm still busy trying to get all my pictures ready before starting my review and needed a break. It's funny how I'm learning things by reading your review that I didn't even know (like the room service...I didn't realize that our cruise we could still order it without a charge :(). Oh well. Thanks for taking the time to do the review. I know how much time and work go into those things and once again sorry I didn't get a chance to meet you because I didn't want to interrupt your game. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was still a little cool the next morning, but it warmed up to into the 70's by the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
