Can anyone tell me if any of the Bars have televisions, like to show sporting events?  I realize they have big games on MUTS and we can get TV channels in the Cabins, but would like to sit in a pub area and have a few drinks while watching the game.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Not sure about the newer ships, but I know on the older ships there's typically TVs at the bar in the Vista Lounge/Club Fusion.

Hysterical show last night with a female impersonator called Ms Champagne.  Standing room only and many seemed to love the show. It really was funny. 
 

Sitting on the dining waiting to be escorted off and back on. They haven’t been able to get all the passengers off as some are straggling. 
 

new dessert in crown grill which was nice for a change.

Would you recommend the Crown Grill on this ship?  

 

We're not going on Sky until Nov, but curious if the new menu is worth it.

We ate at the Crown Grill and it was the worst Crown Grill service we have had on any sailing. The food was fine, but the waiter was just too busy or something. But, if you have not gone to the Crown Grill before the food is good and I think you will enjoy it. I like the old menu, but this one was fine on the Sky.

Went back to Alfredo’s tonight. The salad was simple yet nice, crisp lettuce always is a winner. My pizza was cooked to perfection this time around. Huge difference from the other night. The manager also made sure to check on us. 
 

Large groups boarded tonight. Lots of Cruise Planner TA’s, media as well as executives of Princess. The wake bar was closed at sail away for a private function and I see tomorrow there is no PES lounge because it’s a private function  

 

Bit of a boondoggle with getting us off today and getting back on. Met at 10 am and they didn’t take us off until 11 am. Then we sat on the terminal for about half an hour since we were waiting for someone to leave the ship so it could go to zero count. And they had one guy checking all the passports. 
 

nice afternoon ok the sanctuary but with the new design there are not enough loungers in the sun. Actually not much sun up there. 
 

they are having issues with mediallion net and the app so it didn’t work all evening. 
 

Enjoyed the new game show “would you survive?”  

loved Finding crew on board from the Caribbean princess.

Besides the dessert which you noted, all I can think of was the addition of a new potato choice.

 😲 Did you try it?  That doesn't sound very good.


Yes, it was a tad dry but good. But then again, I just had bone marrow in a steakhouse in Chicago so I don’t mind the taste.

We're not fans of shallots, or onions, or anything like that.

Didn't even know about the dessert change until I read it here.

After dinner I passed on ordering dessert because I figured they were the same lame choices.

So they brought me sorbet.

Another fabulous dinner at La Mer. Best food on the ship. 
 

Paula is the F&B supervisor and wow, she is fantastic. Sabina has taken care of us twice and is amazing. 

 

Brunch here tomorrow.
