Bring a blender?

[LICRUISER2GO]

I heard from someone that they bring a blender on their cruise to make smoothies...anyone out there do this?

[chrysalis]

...and they plug them in right next to the crock pot...hence the need for the power bar

[kendon]

Hysterical.... where does it end?

[bhopal21]

I usually take one of those gas powered "tailgater" blenders; as electrical outlets are in short supply.

Tailgate party? GEEZ I wasn't told about this. I will bring my fold down tailgate barbecue to the balcony, the blender for drinks, the fan to cool everyone down and the sun lamp to keep everyone tan.

 

Ha Ha Ha Ha

LOL I have read on some threads that people bring coffee makers and fans too:rolleyes:

[crowleychick]

We brought a small fan last week that made all the difference in the world. Gave it to our steward afterward and he was tickled to death.

[Casshew]

he was tickled to death.

 

Maybe he was just being polite. :D

[geejay]

I love my coffee and always take a coffee pot. I think many people do. Guess a blender wouldn't be much different!

Take whatever you want -- and don't let the sarcastic replies get to you. :D

[JXOPF]

Wow. Tough crowd! :p

[jlp20]

Why not, remember those large piles of whole fruit up on Lido that disappear, you think people are eating all that. Or is all that overripe stuff just being tossed.

 

But then you get to clean that big machine in that little bathroom sink.

Don't laugh about taking along a small fan. It can be a lifesaver on a hot, sunny day when the air conditioner seems minimal. I have a very small, powerful one that I take with me on all trips, not just cruises.

You can take whatever pleases you. Just remember the weight limits on luggage when flying. Do you want to take a heavy blender instead of clothing?

[spongerob]

Good point, Donna. Besides, a martini shaker is so much easier to pack. :D

 

But I've seen people bring blenders! I think that's why Princess cut off the fruit juice during the day. I'm sure if you tipped a bartender who wasn't too busy, one could whip up a smoothie for you.

[Casshew]

I'm so full from all the food on a cruise there is no room for smoothies~

[LICRUISER2GO]

well I do appreciate everyone's candor...I think I may bring our bullet blender,it only takes up the space of a mug and has small clear plastic drinking mugs....if by chance it doesn't fit in our luggage, I'll just take out a few pairs of my wife's shoes:p....she'll get over it-while sipping strawberry banana daiquris on our balcony--- without her shoes LOL:D

[Douglase]

Don't forget to bring the cooler to keep the ice cream frozen. Small fans are great as the air conditioner doesn't keep it too cool.

I bring an inexpensive light weight plastic blender that I purchased from Wal-Mart for about $15 and my martini shaker. I also bring juices, too. I really do not like mixes normally used in bars so I much prefer my own drinks. We usually end up having our friends over for "happy hour" every afternoon.

 

I am considering bringing my French press to make my own coffee, after reading about the liquid coffee syrup used on the Grand.

 

I guess I am just finicky. I don't want to drink what to me are inferior drinks when I am on vacation. I like the best, even if it means I have to go to the trouble of making it myself. Different strokes for different folks. Who cares what anyone else thinks or says! Go for it.

No..

Damn, I swear this is right off the script of a infocommercial...

[LICRUISER2GO]

I've never seen it but maybe I can be their spokesperson:D

So, what's your opinion of the bullet blender. Have thought about purchasing one for home use but they look so small.

[LICRUISER2GO]

we use it all the time,kids make milk shakes a lot or smoothies and the wife is always chopping up something in it,the one we got came with a full size bender container so it can do anything we did with our regular blender

[Tresa]

Where do you buy a magic bullet blender?

[lwnbwlr]

I'm bringing a leaf blower to clean the leaves and other debris from my balconey. I'll try not to use it between midnight and 6 AM for the comfort of my neighboring cabins.
