Yorkvillain Posted March 17, 2020 #1 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Hi everyone! In just a few short days we will be sailing on the beautiful Song of Norway for our caribbean adventure this year. We booked this cruise SIX years ago - and just last week I drove to my travel agent’s office and handed him our 8th and final payment check so now it’s officially official! Much more to come. Stay tuned! 9 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkvillain Posted March 17, 2020 Author #2 Share Posted March 17, 2020 This ship is the perfect size for us. I saw the deck plans for the new Sovereign class that is coming out in a few years - what a Quantum failure that will be! They’ll never fill those behemoths. I’ll never sail on the Sovereign class - everything is so inward facing. I like to be connected to the ocean. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkvillain Posted March 17, 2020 Author #4 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Work has been so crazy (isn’t it always!?!). I haven’t watched or read the news in forever! Although I think I heard that Tom Brady has the Spanish flu or some other disease. Hope he’s ok! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next thing you know their going to add a slide to the pool, and they will ruin cruising. Edited March 17, 2020 by A&L_Ont 12 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zuggie Posted March 17, 2020 #8 Share Posted March 17, 2020 How cool is this! Our very first cruise was on the Song of Norway in the early 70's. We look forward to reliving our experience with your Song of Norway Live. Thanks for doing this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted March 17, 2020 #9 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) I get concerned that there is a maximum of 1,024 passengers. That would feel awful crowded to me. Edited March 17, 2020 by Sea Dog 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dining room will be so crowded, but people will look so good. Men in their blue tuxes and ladies in their evening gowns with gloves and pearl necklaces. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted March 17, 2020 #15 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Fortunately, there appears to be only one dining room to eat in. I hate having to make any decisions while on a cruise. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick93 Posted March 17, 2020 #17 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Those people even look in good shape - must be some exercise equipment on that ship! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkvillain Posted March 17, 2020 Author #18 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Look that this! It even has a pool on board. That is amazing!! My travel agent told me there was a lap pool on the ship but I didn’t believe him. This confirms it. Thanks! I can’t wait to do do laps around noon everyday! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the same table. Royal Caribbean Cruise Line mailed us a poloroid of our waiter for all three meals. I can’t wait to meet him! I can’t pronounce his name though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted March 17, 2020 #20 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) @Yorkvillain Looking at my brochure that my travel agent mailed me, what kind of room did you book? I was amazed there were 3 choices. Edited March 17, 2020 by Sea Dog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel much safer with things sealed up nice and tight. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mek Posted March 17, 2020 #23 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I heard they even have an outlet in the room where I can plug in my electric rollers. I don't have to go a to separate room to do that - what luxury! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
