Most of our invites just came as messages on the TV Hmmm...neglect of invitations seems to be the norm now. Especially lack of invite for M&M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagsfan Posted August 29, 2019 #1052 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) Good luck if Dorian comes to visit. I hope you have hurricane shutters, though I’d be the one on the balcony watching. A friend just texted me she’s been to our 4 neighborhood Publixes here in Jax and the water aisles are stripped clean. Ditto for batteries and bread....she said even the Little Debbie stuff is gone i’ll bet There are people who still have gallon jugs of water from last year but are afraid to drink it because it’s expired. Thank you, John for a lovely cruise experience and I’m looking forward to the next one. Edited August 29, 2019 by jagsfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it's another thing you have to ask for now, like ice or robes. 😞 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ask for our two for every cruise over 5 nights, and have never had any issues getting them or using them. M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M Same thing...I get them when I ask for them, and also have to ask which is the "free day". I don't put anything in that bag that would break my heart if it gets ruined or lost. 😮 Mostly just socks, t-shirts, etc. It really helps out for doing B2B cruises. 🙂 Edited August 29, 2019 by island lady 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoperDK Posted August 29, 2019 #1060 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Hoping that Dorian doesn't come your way. I grew up in South Miami and was stationed with the military in Mississippi and Alabama. I've seen my fair share of tropical weather. It doesn't look good. Be safe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sellwingri Posted August 30, 2019 #1062 Share Posted August 30, 2019 We always ask our room attendant for the laundry bag. It’s probably been at least 2 years since we had one delivered to our room without asking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snit13 Posted August 30, 2019 #1063 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Hello John, Laura and Bella. I sincerely hope Dorian does not visit you but if he does that your condo suffers no harm. I just returned home from UFHealth in Gainesville yesterday following open heart surgery on August 9 and am trying to find my way back to where I left your review on August 8. So many pages. Heard you have posted many more pictures while I was away. I did see the awesome picture of Bella on page 43, I believe. Hope Dorian doesn't cross the state to Citrus County as I am in no condition for a hurricane much less a party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maplemoose Posted August 30, 2019 #1067 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Is it true that you cannot use MTD Dining before 6:30 now on teh HOTS? If so, do you know if someone can get a table for 2 for regular dining. It would suck to go to the buffet every night. We do not want to join a big table for various reasons.

Yes, but you need to change your reservation to traditional and then ask for a table for 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snit13 Posted August 31, 2019 #1072 Share Posted August 31, 2019 John, thanks for the Bella photos. The first of the two is so precious I just want to hug her. Following Dorian especially with you in mind. This am on Weather Channel it appears FL may not get slammed as badly as last night's report. We are prepared, so to speak, over here on the west coast but wish he would just blow out to sea and spare us all. Any news from Royal on your Mariner cruise? I believe I read you were to sail Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they designed the water park to withstand hurricane winds. I would be curious if the cabanas were removable and they could store them for safe keeping till after the storm passes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect RCI has some way to protect these structures that bring them $1200 per day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
