Any chance of a picture of it to see the differences? Also I'm a little bummed about the tables changing to no tablecloths, just because I was looking forward to the novelty of it in December.

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #502 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Good morning. Bed was super comfortable I wish I had that one for 16 days. I cannot stress enough, if you don't need internet don't purchase it on the Spirit. You are just throwing money down a dark hole. Sooo slow again this morning. Heading into Nassau shortly.

Thank you for your ongoing report -- I've been reading it with great interest. I will get a picture for you. Tablecloths remain an unconfirmed rumor at this point as they were still in use last night. They did start leaving the water on the table like they do on the other ships so I do suspect it is coming. Thanks for following along. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The loss of cookies is too bad since I usually to a cookie run late at night for my mom after the buffet is closed. I guess I will have to do the run before it is closes. Sad sad sad to see a few of my favorites gone. It's like everything I ordered here was eliminated. Except the falafel I got that once and it was terrible lol. No loss for me there but I'm sure someone liked it and misses it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #507 Share Posted October 7, 2022 The trivia was called piece of cake. I joked it was going to be easy questions k kwing it would be about cake. Nope, easy questions. What is 2 + 2? Who was the first president of the United States? I felt pretty dumb though when I scored a 15 and everyone else got 19 or more 😆. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #509 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Ugh I'm so over these internet speeds. I have never once had internet this unusable before. I do not know how the technology works, but surely this could have been fixed on turnaround day if they were willing to throw enough money at the problem. For what they charge, they should throw some money at the problem. I'm going to guest services again. I don't want my money back, I want a working solution. I want the product I paid for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted October 7, 2022 #510 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Ugh I don't like hearing that Jam! I just purchased the value plan today to do a live review next month on Mardi Gras....hopefully with that being the newest ship, it'll have better internet!

I've never had great internet on a carnival ship and it's been hit or miss on royal. But this is pure garbage. It's usually usable for anything but streaming. Then I walk down to guest services and I'm doing speed tests the whole way and I'm getting the fastest speeds I've ever encountered on a cruise. That's what it doing, up and down constantly. Maybe I should just sit in the lobby until it goes slow again lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #512 Share Posted October 7, 2022 We just walked around a little today in Nassau. My mom found some souvenirs so she was happy. After my embarrassing defeat at trivia I went to the deli to try a new sandwich. @Jamman54 here's a turkey Swiss cheese sandwich pic for your wife. It was pretty good but I think it was the honey mustard that made it stand out and the menu calls for mayonnaise. Almost a suitable replacement for my turkey and avacado sandwich. My mom got a chicken salad sandwich which she said was very good. Washed it down with a slice of sugar free raspberry champagne cake. Lunch menu. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #515 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person in the world who hasn't sailed Mardi Gras yet. But I will get to play with carnivals next new toy, Celebration, for 15 days in December. Super excited for that! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have a different menu on Mardi Gras not sure. If they do definitely get it my mom doesn't rave about too many of the items on the ship. I'm even gonna try it against my no chicken on a sandwich rule lol. Edited October 7, 2022 by jam19872016 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #519 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I just realized parodeejay is on this cruise. They are literally the only YouTubers whose personality doesn't turn me off. They seem genuine and not like they are putting on a show for the camera. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #520 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Sailed away from Nassau about an hour ago and into the storm that has darkened the sky all day. Ran into another diamond who asked if I was going to the diamond party. First I heard about it I guess my invite got lost in the mail 🤣. Off to crash a party in the piano bar now 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #521 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Omg parodeejay in person. Probably the closest to a celebrity I'll ever see. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted October 7, 2022 Author #522 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Tried to prove or disprove that you can no longer use obc to buy gift cards, but they were out. So going to the casino where I will not be doing the casino trick because I am a frequent gambler who enjoys paying no charge to charge the room and don't want to see that stopped to prevent abuse. I will at least play through what I charge and keep my winnings. I've had no problem spending my obc on the other cruises but for only 2 days I've still got a lot left over.

Rare jam19872016 Posted October 8, 2022 Author #525 Share Posted October 8, 2022 My mom did better than me by about $50. She got 160 and I got 110. We each had around 200 left so not very good but not terrible and it was free money 👍. Off to dinner now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
