emeraldcity Posted February 1, 2022 #477 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Just logging in to catch up on things, having just returned yesterday from my first cruise on a quantum class (the Anthem). Loved the layout. Looking forward to the Odyssey ... which coincidentally is the next 8-day cruise to Aruba and Curacao sailing Feb. 12. I need to shoot a message off to my cabinmate Kathy so she can tune in on this thread as well. Hopefully you make the ports as planned. I came home to an email of a cancelled excursion for Curacao. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the acronym challenged LP is Lilly Pulitzer. 😉 Well, I guess that would be me. 2 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through the royal app? I won’t be in a suite so no concierge to help me this sailing. Thanks We used to be able to book entertainment prior to boarding but no longer. Once aboard you can book through the app or some location on the ship where someone can assist you. The app is very easy to use. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat, you were on a windy deck on a cruise. Wind blown is the way to go. And yes you looked good. You're thinner than me so you won't win on this one. 😛 Plump body...brought to you by the wine makers of the world. 😄 🍷 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ship only does show reservations for The Book. Book iFly and Northstar as soon as you can 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted February 1, 2022 #486 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Missed our show last night...too many wines I guess. 😵 Ended up back at the cabin to watch a movie. 😄 Want to watch Pete Matthews show at 7 pm. Trying MDR for dinner tonight, early seating. Really spreading it around as much as possible on this cruise. CK the next two nights, and then again on day 8 (my favorite seared tuna!). 😋 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both lovely and happy as always. I am looking forward to finding out how you compare Odyssey to Oasis. My comparison could be skewed since our passenger numbers are so low. I know what a full Oasis is like 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw folks turned away at the show. I am still confused why these are necessary if you have to be vaxxed to get on the boat. If it's because kids 11 and younger don't have to be vaxxed, then maybe just everyone under 18 should wear them. You can't tell me you might mistake a 21 year old for an 11 year old lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She just recently sailed on Adventure from Galveston and she put her wristband on her lanyard. She said nobody ever asked to see it, and she didn't wear the lanyard around her neck, just had it with her. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emeraldcity Posted February 1, 2022 #499 Share Posted February 1, 2022 OK. I finished reading the whole thread. I got a kick out of the iFly pictures. Everybody looks the same ... cheeks bunched up around your eyeballs. They shunted me off to the photographer after my flight to give me the sales pitch ... $30 for this action shot in a great leatherette folio with a certificate of the event. I passed on it. The only reason I could think of for getting the photo was for the amount of merriment it will provide my survivors when they come upon it while they are going through the estate. I can see the two oldest literally falling out of their chairs laughing. Anyway, if you don't get a prime iFly reservation, consider my experience. I stayed on board the Anthem at one of the ports and was walking laps when I passed the Ripcord. "Oh, what the heck", I figured. Might as well check out what is involved. The schedule was wide open for the day and I could do one minute for free at 2:00. So I booked it. I was the only one in the time slot. One of the guys who was standing around agreed to be my official videographer and he filmed the entire minute, along with some still shots. I did just fine, but my damn butt checks were sore for two days afterward. One and done. The photos of me look like what you see when you peek out your sideview mirror at speed and get a view of your dog in the back seat hanging his head out the window. 1 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
