I hope you are enjoying your cruise.

Can you please tell which nights are formal?

Also, what is the show room entertainment?

Thanks!

They were still doing the free pub lunch on the Pacific Princess last week!

It's a trial on the Ruby apparently

Reba,

Weather is So. Ca. changes quickly. Today it is pouring rain, tomorrow may be warm.

For our Christmas cruise on the Ruby, it rained when we boarded and was cool.Normally when this occurs we have cool weather the next day( a sea day) .That wasn't the case and our kids went to the pool in the afternoon.

Weather in all the ports was pleasant and not too hot. however in Cabo it was very windy. This was unusual for Cabo.We cruise to Mexico very often and always have had really nice weather. Never had rain.

 

Hi Sue!! :) Thanks you

Don't forget the "Los Brillantes" Mariachi trio who play in the Atrium most nights.

I wonder if it still is the pub lunch menu or has it become a minor version of the evening Salty Dog menu.

Antsp, thanks for the verification! as I mentioned on the other thread, we did not have free pub lunch on the Crown last November. So, I'm Not holding my breath that it will be offered on the Star Princess next week either.....

 

...oh well, at least they still had Afternoon Tea in one of the MDR. but even that was quiet and not promoted by the staff. I think only regular cruisers even knew about it.....also according to the Patter, the Wheelhouse Bar didn't even open up until 3pm so I don't think the Salty Dog was offering Lunch there either. The place was eerily dead quiet!

We really enjoyed Carlos! Hilarious, clean, fun comedian. :D Both of his shows were standing room only on the Crown Princess. Also enjoyed "Los Brillantes", liked their music so much I purchased their CD. (And I don't even speak Spanish! LOL.) Just listening to it takes me back to my cruise days :)

Have you been able to cancel tips, or leaving for a little

later in the cruise?

[Kopy]

I was wondering if there is a band in the wheelhouse bar after 9:00 now that it has been turned into the Salty Dog. also, are there still comfortable seats or only the restaurant tables?

thank you

It never even crossed my mind to do that, but now YOU suggested it what a good idea

I love them. I'm hoping they'll be aboard in March.

[san diego sue]

On the Ruby (Christmas cruise, we were able to go into the Wheelhouse lounge to enjoy the music. We sat on the couches not at the pub seating. Didn't have to do the Salty Dog . Food did look good

as the waiters walked by with the plates.

Based on your previous posts, I think you are funnin' us

when you say it never even crossed your mind.

I was, but as I've always stated, I don't remove my tips nor intend too, I do however I like to bring slightly controversial topics to cc to make it intresting.

How's the food in MDR?

Have you tried the Curtis Stone offerings?

Are majority of PAX wearing formal attire to MDR on Formal Night?

 

Enjoy your cruise, and God willing, you have many more in 2017, and beyond.

So, when one posts something that is contrary to their

actual intentions, just to create controversy --

is that trolling?

Maybe,

 

It's that or we discuss butter all day, or maybe trolling is what you did by bringing tipping into a thread about the Ruby

My question was sincere. Is was exactly about Ruby.

 

You had strongly lamented paying tips after currency changes

following BREXIT, so I aasked you about it.

 

You said your goal was to create controversy.

You can hardly complain when you do.

 

Personally, if I were on a cruise, I wouldn't be wasting my time

bickering on some forum.
