suesnake2002 Posted April 18, 2019 #51 Share Posted April 18, 2019 At the time you posted hour black and white photo we were loading our truck up in the parking lot below. Leaving our wonderful grandeur. As for the temps around the ship, the only place i found cold was the south pacific lounge. Which would include the diamond lounge, tucked in the corner. I basically found the ac on the warm side. Even in our cabin one deck up and over the south pacific lounge. At the captains corner, someone asked about large piping being removed from the ship. We were told it was air conditioning pipes being scrapped. It seems that this is an ongoing project. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted April 19, 2019 Author #52 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I am still in shorts, but our last suitcase finally showed up while we were in the dining room. I have not found anything cold, except our cabin where we turned the ac to cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted April 19, 2019 Author #57 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Dinner tonight was prime rib. That seems to be what we always order on night 1. We had dinner with a couple from our roll call on their first cruise. Susan was happy, because their apple pie on this ship does not have raisins.

Rare h20skibum Posted April 19, 2019 Author #59 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I don’t think I ever saw this sign before. Susan asked me what it was, but she just smacked me when I gave her my answer. [emoji16]Past Reviews post 184 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So happy to hear about Apple pie with no raisins. Yeah!!!!I I made a big deal on Anthem to a section captain and was given Apple pie each nite with NO raisins. Found out she is married to the pastry chef. Who knew?Past Reviews post 184 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivrag4511 Posted April 19, 2019 #62 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I've been on the Grandeur many times. Have a back to back coming up in November. She's a great little ship with a fabulous crew. Baltimore is a great port to sail out of So easy getting on and off the ship. Now to get back to the hockey discussion. I'm an Islanders fan living in Capitals country. It would be so nice to see the Canes beat the Caps. That would give the Isles home ice in the second round. Go Isles! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted April 19, 2019 Author #63 Share Posted April 19, 2019 So it is early morning Friday, and we are sailing through a little storm. The ship is rocking a little. DW has an alarm set on her phone for 5:30 am every Friday, and she forgot to turn it off. Since I had cell service all day yesterday, I waited until this morning to purchase WiFi. I used my D discount for one day of surf, and we will use DW’s discount for a package the rest of the voyage. This is the surf speed from our cabin on deck 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted April 19, 2019 Author #65 Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Deck 5 outside was closed last night, and it is closed this morning. The starboard side looks dry, but the port side is wet, with spray going at least a deck higher. Lots of people look like they are doing the electric slide this morning, but it may be purely unintentional 😁 Edited April 19, 2019 by h20skibum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is supposed to reach 70 degrees, but winds are 20-30 knots. I will walk out to the pool deck after breakfast to see how it feels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted April 19, 2019 Author #69 Share Posted April 19, 2019 The pool deck is very windy today, and the pool is closed. I took a video of the wave action in the pool, but I don’t think it will upload. So maybe they do have a flow rider after all. 😁 Even the Solarium pool is closed today, and water from the pool is flowing around the floor of Park Cafe. The hot tubs, however, are open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted April 19, 2019 #70 Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) I will have to watch this thread. We got off her the morning of April 18. 😄 Had a great 12 night cruise on her. BTW, Giovanni in the Schooner Bar in the late evenings is very good. Edited April 19, 2019 by SRF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voc6 Posted April 19, 2019 #71 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Thanks so much for the live update...It's embarrassing how frequently I keep refreshing the page during my workday! We leave on the 25th. If you happen to have any time, do you mind checking out the photo area? There's a package for $199 for all prints online if we pre-buy but I can't figure out if we can pick the sizes, or if there are certain sizes they print and we just walk around and pick all of the ones we are in....online doesn't provide much info and other ship classes look like they have facial recognition but not sure if Grandeur does. Don't waste any time though; only if you happen to be perusing your own photos. 🙂 Have a wonderful trip!! Hope the weather warms up and the seas calm down!

Rare h20skibum Posted April 19, 2019 Author #74 Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) We had the CC Meet & Mingle this morning, and we had about 23 show up. That is probably a good showing, given the rough seas, and the number of people I have seen talking into those little bags. I won won a few items in the raffle, but gave them away to someone who had never won Edited April 19, 2019 by h20skibum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are handing out drinks at the Top Tier party this morning in the theatre. I had to try a rum punch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
