Rare niksmom630 Posted February 17, 2017 Author #251 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Good morning from Miami [emoji4] I will catch up with the rest of my photos at the airport. Our flight is not until 12:30 out of Fort Lauderdale, so I'll have plenty of time to kill Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare niksmom630 Posted February 17, 2017 Author #257 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Dinner at Chops was very good. I even had the soup, Andrew, sans croutons [emoji23] Chops used to serve these amazing prosciutto potatoes. They have changed the menu, and now serve these tasteless tator tot thingies in the top of the next photo. Don't bother with these... I'm really regretting not getting breakfast this morning... these photos are making me hungry Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted February 17, 2017 Author #258 Share Posted February 17, 2017 And more cake.... they were serving this in the Windjammer during lunch on our final sea day Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted February 17, 2017 Author #259 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Overweight $125 bag crisis solved thanks to the shops on board. Got this little duffle for $25. Ironically, I met another woman on boarding day who did the same thing. Tried to get her and her husbands stuff into one suitcase. He and Rick had a good laugh at our expense.

Clarea Posted February 17, 2017 #260 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Overweight $125 bag crisis solved thanks to the shops on board. Got this little duffle for $25.... Be very gentle with that bag. We bought one a few years ago and it did not last one day before the zipper broke. Fortunately we were still on the ship and got a refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh oh....[emoji15][emoji15][emoji15][emoji15] it's filled with a hefty bag of dirty laundry.....really don't want to arrive at O'Hare to my clothes strewn about the luggage carousel.

Rare niksmom630 Posted February 17, 2017 Author #263 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Excellent review! w/ really nice images. Our only attempt to cruise on the Navigator was when the Ship Channel in Houston had a major oil spill and the Coast Guard would not allow the cruise ships leave Galveston. So... sat we did. .. in Galveston til Wed. morning when the Capt finally got his green light leave port. We sat sail for Cozumel. Everyone received 100% refund plus 25% on the next cruise. Needless to say, the cruise was unsettling. But we pushed through it and actually ended up on a positive note. We look forward to being on the Navi again one day w/ better circumstances. BTW, I suspect the different pricing of the drinks from bar to bar is based on the type of liquor being poured etc. Enjoy the balance of your cruise and thank you for taking the time to share your vacation w/ me! :cool: Thanks! I recall reading about that cruise, yikes! Definitely give her another try! We sailed last on Navigator out of Galveston and had a great cruise Thanks for taking the time to post your beautiful vacation for all of us to enjoy! Sailing in 10 days on this ship can't wait ! Your reviews have been so informative and helpful. Enjoy your day at sea! Have a great cruise! Are you doing the 5 night sailing? I'll post the compasses when I get home if anyone is interested in seeing them Are they still doing custom omelettes in the grill section? In the last couple of years my stomach has decided it doesn't like egg yolks so I have to get egg white omelettes. Yes' date=' they were!

Rare niksmom630 Posted February 17, 2017 Author #264 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Interested in knowing if they serve fresh squeezed orange juice on this ship anywhere?. Sailing on March 3rd. thanks, Sandy I didn't notice any in the Windjammer, and never went to the MDR for breakfast, but I don't drink it, so I wasn't looking for it. Maybe someone who has recently sailed on her could comment... I just read a few of the reviews here on cruise critic concerning Navigator's dining and so many post that the food is below par. Are you finding that? Since we leave March 31, I am now considering more days at Chops. What is your honest opinion of the food in the main dining room? I have so enjoyed all your pictures and daily review. Thank you so much:) We never made it to the MDR for dinner. First cruise in 24 years that we haven't at least had a few meals there. Didn't care much for the 5:30 dining time, and while I know we could have changed to MTD onboard, because we had a few specialty dining meals booked, we just stuck with the Windjammer. All in all, the food there was very good to decent. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
