I personally prefer the cabins near the aft elevator, bump out. I like using the stairs to get to deck 5 for cafe 270, 270 theater, vintages bar and the esplanade/promenade. We did enjoy deck 7 too but our go to is deck 6. Like I said Jim if you can get one of the square cabins on deck 7 for a price much less than JS and don't have to have CK I would go for it. July 2024 B2B 7 Nights & 14 nights On the 14 nighter the J4 was less $$ then those square cabins you were talking about for some reason. Have a 2D for the first leg, the J4 on the first leg was crazy high in my opinion for 7 nights............the J4 on the 2nd leg for 14 nights was more reasonable and nice to have the extra space for 14 nights. The cabins are both on deck 7 only about 2 cabins away from each other so we will have cabin steward move everything over for us. Be an easy move for him or her.

It’s been mentioned before , don’t be crunching ice with your teeth. I cracked a tooth above the gum line . My dentist can’t deal with it , endodontist referral couldn’t deal with it and now I’m waiting for a consultation with an oral surgeon. The pain from the infection was really bad . Still on antibiotics. I hope , it can be dealt with before our mid-January cruise . Jane get well soon . Jim eager to see your finished floor . Sorry about your tooth pain.I hope you feel better soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the smoke pit(isn't the smoke pit like half way between back of ship and the aft elevator) doesn't bother us to much. I figured with the ship sailing forward the smoke will travel toward the back of the ship..........Our 2 cabins are pretty much on the bump out, Category 2D and category J4 You'll be just fine on deck 7. If you look at deck 5 starboard deck plan the smoking station that is enclosed like a bus stop is located across from vintages. Cabins in the the area of 6674 6676 6678 get the smokey smell. If you are anywhere near the area of 7646 you'll be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually after looking more closely, we are on the port side, so I guess no issues from the smokey smell just have to deal with the lights showing on that side of the ship from Jamie's. You every been on the port side, just how long are those lights left on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare brillohead Posted December 23, 2022 #81284 Share Posted December 23, 2022 I decided to drive from Champaign (Illinois) to Battle Creek (Michigan) a day early. (I'm working weekends in MI for a while.) I left mid-afternoon and it was snowing in IL with a temp of 14F and a wicked wind. When I got into Michigan, the temp climbed a bit (low 20s). Indiana forgot to put snowplows out, so I-94 was running at around 10mph in that state, but Michigan actually plowed a bit, so traffic was going between 40-50mph. Now just need to worry about my son's drive from Fort Drum, NY, to Michigan. He's officially discharged from the Army (for good) and headed home... in the middle of a blizzard, on a holiday weekend! LOL Safe travels and happy holidays (whichever holidays you celebrate) to all of my CC "framily"!!! 20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's windy but from a distance the garlic covering looks like it's holding up. Maybe some of this snow will pile up on it and will help even more. Has the snow stopped there yet? Right now we're at -11, feels like -33. Yuk. We're tucked in for the day. Fri should hover around 0, unk wind chill. Isn't Garlic like a weed and just keeps on giving? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted December 23, 2022 #81294 Share Posted December 23, 2022 So, DD decided I needed a photo of grandad in the framed multiple family photo montage of his birthday dinner that I am gifting him for Christmas. I went to Officeworks this afternoon to print off one photo, ended up selecting 95 recent holiday photos ….then inadvertently selected the poster size so the bill came to $895.00…had to cancel and go through the whole process again of uploading 4500 mobile phone photos (yes I should have put them in folders beforehand) and selecting the ones I wanted. Hit print for them to be printed out. No receipt. Receipt needed for auto print machine. 30min queue at the help desk to get a receipt printed off. Photos printing off very slowly, Then the at the 50th photo I realised that there was an issue with the printer, the photos were being printed with multiple green horizontal lines. Sigh. Back to the help desk. No they can’t cancel the order mid print and no they can’t reprint right now. After spending over an hour and a half at Officeworks, I gave up and left the building with 50% good photos ….only to have the photo envelope carrying the photos burst and the 95 photos blown everywhere on the road and down a carpark ramp…,I had four kind strangers chasing after my photos…. Hoping no-one will notice will the horizontal lined photo until I have a chance to replace…. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted December 23, 2022 #81295 Share Posted December 23, 2022 7 hours ago, Sunshine3601 said: The square cabins on deck 7 we either standard OVB or OVB with large balcony. For our last sailing they were much cheaper than a JS. No CK access. There are some nice JS on Anthem that have 1.5 bathrooms but no walkin closet. I forget if they are j4 or j3. We had one of those square cabins booked on Anthem For April, 2020. It would have been our first sailing on that class ship, and a first out of Cape Liberty. Hmm, for some reason, we could not go on that cruise. I mean, it was after the two weeks to slow the spread thing. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two years ago the provincial hockey association decided to have no hockey games during Christmas and March school breaks for all ages of kids. They determined that the kids needed some time to themselves for an actual physical and mental break. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
