I'm sorry to hear that about the flies.

 

Are they offering Crab Shack any nights and could you please tell me the theme night for dining for the night in St Thomas.

 

Thank you!

We went on the outback tour and then walked around the pool in Amber Cove and we did not experience any fly attack. We had deet bug spray on before we left the cabin. I did hear about the fly attacks though. We just did not experience thank goodness. Julie

Thanks for the posting! On the cruise director thread, it was indicated that Martyn would be leaving the ship soon. Any word on who will be replacing him?

 

And, you were able to get the soda only, not the soda plus sticker? If that is still an option, I won't prepay for the uneeded mocktails and wait 'til we board!

 

Yes we were able to get just the soda only right by the table set up near the International café .

When I have more time and more Internet time I hope I can answer more,but now I can not use all my min. Up. So u til I return from cruise.

Following along as we are doing this same itinerary in March. It'll be our first time on the Regal, so this "Live From" is just a tease. Thanks for taking the time.

Enjoy your cruise. One of the nights can you see who the band is that is playing in the atrium? The was a great band on board when we were on this year. I believe they were from Barbados and the singer all ways wore a hat. We will be back on in Dec. and would love to see them again.

 

 

It sounds like you are describing Rhapsody. They were the band on the Royal, which we disembarked this morning.

I am on the Dec. 11 sailing and this is my first princess cruise, so I am so excited!

 

We switched to it from the broken Carnival Liberty....so now we will get a real cruising experience :)

 

Can't wait to see rmore.

 

What is alfredo's btw?

 

Alfredo's is complimentary and has pizza,salads,pasta, and dessert on deck 5 I think.

Julie

[arizonaperson]

Onboard within 1hr of leaving our hotel.

We are lunching in Alfredos.

 

I'll be following along too. We board November 20th. Might start a new tradition--Thanksgiving at sea.

 

Alfredo's has been my choice for lunch on the Royal and Regal. Was the dining room open for lunch today too?

 

Enjoy your cruise.

 

Sandi

 

It sure if the main d.r. Was open for embarkation as we went to Alfredo's and it was not listed in the Patter as open,but can't say as I did not go there to check it out.

Julie

[arizonaperson]

Bon Voyage!

 

Following along as we get on the ship on 11/27. If you could let us know who the piano player is in Crooner's, that would be great.

 

Igor grygorash and I thought someone else, but I only have today's Patter wth me.

Did you see my question on post #53 about Crab Shack and the menu on the St Thomas night?

Sorry crabshack is available I just don't know what nights it was available .I will hopefully post at some point when nights it was available if I can. Julie

Had a great day today in Saint Martin watching planes land and take off. It was very hot out ,It was to be expected .went in the water at maho beach and it was wonderful ,but it's a strong current. We're just getting ready to leave port from Saint Martin and we have 2 Sea days .

Taxis were very organized in Saint Martin we had 14 in the van to Maho beach so it was eight dollars a person.

I have more to say later when I return ,right now don't want to use all my Internet minutes .still need to communicate with family and friends back home.

Wonderful cruise so far.

Hi. I hope you can let me know when you return if St Maarten's time and the ships time are the same. Sounds like you are having a fun cruise.

[arizonaperson]

Crab shack was or is offered on our itinerary Tuesday ,November 15th and Saturday the 19th.

Sorry I have no idea as I did not look at any clocks really. I just kept my watch on ship time which I assume is the same as St. M. Time. I can't confirm for sure though.

Did you see my question on post #53 about Crab Shack and the menu on the St Thomas night?

 

I was on the Regal for the repo from NY and it appeared that the Crab Shack was offered pretty much every night. I was surprised because in the past it was only held a couple of times.

Not sure why, but it's never listed in the Patters. I'm fairly positive that it was open on boarding day when I sailed on the repo.

Ok Thanks. I'm probably confused there was someone on the boards who said they would check and let me know. I'll have to go back and figure out who it was.

CD Martyn and deputy Angela leave the Regal for vacation on Nov. 27th.

Trumpet player David,Alegria string quartet are leaving tomorrow. Martyn'S fiancée is in Alegria.

Nice sea day morning.
