bluewater1298 Posted August 16 #576 Share Posted August 16 It's been more than a decade since we tendered with Royal at Grand Cayman so I can't remember their process. When we were on Celebrity this year, we received timed tickets (day before) to board the tender for early departures. I know you're going late in the day so it's probably not the same, but do you know how they allow early morning people to board the tender? Just curious. 🤔 Hope you enjoy your ride! 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to imagine on a ship this large, the process is not going to be as smooth as on Celebrity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had exactly three bonus games all cruise. One was a nice hit but did literally nothing afterwards. The other two were those lowball wins that you think "really, that's a bonus". Someone bought her a drink and she had to decline for "medical reasons". That could mean anything but naturally I assume this will be her last contract for at least nine months. Yes the rowboat towed behind Monarch seems the only thing attainable at this point so long as Andrew is in charge or the rowing! Sorry to hear about Darla. I agreed, I think you're a little bit smitten. Maybe you should find out her plans before you leave. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just kidding.....it's more like the deck 12 obstacle course, we always get a chuckle at the people trying to get their serious jogs in when the deck is jammed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the deck 4 promenade the other day. Much better option. I seem to recall it usually has a sign asking not to use it as a walking track (cabins below I imagine) but it is absent from this one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I like to be able to look out if I wake in the night. Yes, sometimes I get up in the middle of the night and walk out on the balcony to see if any lights are visible... islands or ships. That is also the first thing I do when I get up in the morning. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use deck 4 all the time on Freedom class ships to walk (on Independence right now). You get the added bonus of going up and down stairs when you are at the front of the ship. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted August 16 Author #599 Share Posted August 16 Lime and coconut Enjoying this one indoors. Per local regulations, the only bar serving alcohol is Lime & Coconut. I counted twelve bartenders and saw many bar servers walking the decks and I had no trouble getting served. Don't tell Grand Cayman, but there is also bar service up in Viking Crown Lounge. Perhaps they walk down to Lime and Coconut to fill the order. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted August 16 Author #600 Share Posted August 16 Correction, they cannot serve alcohol. She confused me at first by asking if I needed bar service. That means alcohol to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
