Maybe cross that line at a more decent hour in the afternoon so the Captain can do something more special there then he did crossing the equator. Missing the port stop the other day did make the equator crossing earlier than expected. Maybe they did do something at pool deck or Centrum we haven't heard about yet.

They didn't do anything special when crossing the Tropic of Cancer. Yes, I realize that many RCI ships cross the Tropic of Cancer and very few RCI ships cross the Tropic of Capricorn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DragonOfTheSeas Posted December 25, 2023 #1003 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Those on the world cruise will likely get a certificate [or something] with all of the world 'lines" they have crossed and the continents they have visited. That would be worthy of framing. That is a HUGE accomplishment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine sent me a video last week of the left pool table working nicely after he went to Guest Services and asked that they send a technician to operate it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would want it all on one. 😜 Just saying. We have two certificates. One for crossing the Atlantic and one for the Panama Canal. But yours will be priceless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thanks again for the help! 🥰 Thank you for letting me follow along. A lowly emerald, but with a few planned in the future to put us at D status. Your hair looks beautiful! Have a cousin from US that went to med school in Grenada; said it was amazing. On our list. Your pics are terrific. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted December 25, 2023 Author #1014 Share Posted December 25, 2023 OK...just walked down to deck six Safari club to check on the pool table situation. The one on the right is still broken..as the sign states... and has been since we boarded. The one on the left...has been in this "odd" position since yesterday. I don't think I would want to try putting a set up on that surface. 😄 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
