Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 30 #113801 Share Posted January 30 20 minutes ago, taznremmy said: @A&L_Ont Andy, I am top tier on Princess, and agree with @Arzeena. I find the two brands fairly comparable. I alternate between the lines based on itinerary and price. Hard to pass up the DP340 discount on Royal for solo’s. While you don’t get the 6 drinks per day on Princess, you do get a mini bar set up in your cabin and reduced price drinks during the happy hour. One thing I highly recommend is their Princess Plus package. It is $60 per day, but cover tips, wi-fi and up to 15 drinks per day. 🙀 Look forward to your thoughts and photos. Do those drinks include alcohol? It’s like they are giving things away for free. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, alcohol is included, up to $16 per drink. It’s a “no brainer” for me. It also includes some other things, like two fitness classes, two casual dining meals ($14.99 each) and more. There is also a “premier package”. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just look at their drink prices, compared to Royal’s. The plus package was a no brainer for us. I know I will see what I can work my way through. bar-menu-princess-cruises.pdf This is included in plus Edited January 30 by h20skibum 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been giving them a hard look, checking out itineraries. I’m in the camp with those who think Royal’s pricing is getting out of hand and I wouldn’t mind a few new ports either. We may find it’s not for us, but we’ll never know unless we try. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted January 30 #113805 Share Posted January 30 I think trying new lines is a great idea if one cruises one line fairly regularly. Different decor. Different menus. Different shows. Not necessarily better…just a refreshing change!! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really looking forward to MSc yacht club but most likely combining them with oasis class and celebrity suites, might be tempted to a higher end line , but don’t want to sacrifice the entertainment I get with the other three. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbancroft Posted January 31 #113807 Share Posted January 31 While my grandson and I were traveling to the airport Sunday evening i had a tour guide with me. My grandson is 8 and he has been through D.C. before but not at night. With everything all lit up he as giving me a play by play of what we were seeing. The Washington Monument, The White House (where there is an oval office he told me) and the Jefferson memorial. It made the drive so much more enjoyable. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this recommendation Lenny. I usually avoid true crime but on a whim decided to watch this one. Binged the entire three episodes as i couldn’t stop watching. No spoilers for this one as it’s best to go in blind not knowing anything about this case. It’s getting rave reviews here and making viewers angry. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare aussielozzie18 Posted January 31 #113816 Share Posted January 31 4 hours ago, cruiselvr04 said: I’m not caught up for the last couple of days but we made it to Sydney Australia. 19 hours on 2 planes and a 10 hour layover in LAX but we are here. Flights were uneventful and all 4 checked bags made it. Yesterday we were able to check into our hotel by 8:30 a.m. so we spent the day exploring the CBD of Sydney. The shopping here is off the charts. So many stores, many high end and a lot of people. It wasn’t our intent to shop but DH broke his carryon handle the first flight so we were off to find a new suitcase. We found one, had lunch at a food court and went on a walking tour of “ The Rocks”. We forced ourselves to stay up until 8 p.m. then crashed for a good 12 hours. We are staying on the quay with lots of action right off our balcony. I’ll post a picture. Today Princess is here, yesterday it was P and O. This area is FULL of restaurants and fast food, it’s a bit overwhelming to pick a place to eat. We had planned to go to Manly beach today but not sure the weather will cooperate. If not we’ll do more walking, maybe the bridge and museums. Welcome to Sydney. Glad you had a successful first day. Very nice balcony view.

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted January 31 #113818 Share Posted January 31 We are currently on holiday. First time, we’ve needed house sitters as usually one of the adult kids is home. Being getting daily proof of life photos from the couple that are housesitting & caring for Max for us. Although, they are more “Max being spoilt rotten” photos. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sherri Papini case was also in California. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgmn Posted January 31 #113822 Share Posted January 31 Playing catch up on Dani's thread. Hope everyone going on cruises or holidays have/had fab times. Especially the Icon cruisers and @cruiselvr04 travelling all the way to Australia, still on my bucket list. @Sea Doghope the pain is getting better andyou're getting better sleeps. @Jimbo glad to see you posting again, you've been missed, love your posts @dani negreanuthink about you and Aaron and your family often. Hope things are a bit quieter and you can get out and about without too much worry 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anxiously awaiting Phil’s prediction on Friday. Same here. We need some sunny skies so tired of the rain and gloomy skies. There is an Indian Chief staying at a carriage house that is located on the property where I work. I asked him to do a sun dance the other day. Maybe he did! He has some amazing stories he is sharing while he is here visiting from CA. Edited January 31 by Sunshine3601 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
