Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24 Author #177 Share Posted August 24 (edited) Remember last time the great debate as to whether or not this was L.A. or Honolulu? Someone was reading. They all have labels now. I do beg to differ on L.A. being a Carnival home port. Now if they put Carnival Corp home port, I’d go with that.

Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24 Author #178 Share Posted August 24 (edited) All of the others are what I thought they were except the one I thought was Progreso. They have that as Cozumel. Chicken Itza is featured prominently in that one and unless things have changed, the only way you can see that from Cozumel is a tour that flys over it.

Some people just can’t do it. Other than my dad and my grandfather, I’m the only one in my family that would do anything alone. My mom would be mortified if she knew I went to a movie alone…much less 300 of them. 14 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That bar should be open way more hours per day. Donna up there last month was great when it was open. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some folks never learn how to be alone. IMO it is mandatory for anyone BEFORE getting into a relationship. Traveling alone is great, no worry about someone falling behind, getting lost, keeping up, decisions on where to eat, what to do, what $$$ is spent blah blah blah. I lived alone for 8 years and the places I got to go and see were amazing. Keep up the good work! 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donna up there last month was great when it was open. I was referring to the window not being open. But yeah the bar isn’t open much. But nobody would use it because there is no grand view because the window is closed. I have argued they should take that bar out and put in more tiered seating. There aren’t enough seats in that venue for the shows. We could be watching sailaway out that huge window. But they want to have this ready 3 hours early so this is what you have to look at during sail away. Edited August 24 by Saint Greg 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went from my parents house to a house with Tony, I think that is one of my problems! I know I need to venture out but it's tough taking those steps!

Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24 Author #188 Share Posted August 24 I decided to just use my free drink on something I know I’ll like. I asked for a filthy martini with blue cheese olives. I don’t even thing this is dirty. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24 Author #189 Share Posted August 24 (edited) Haha. I think an alchemist is being slick trying to make it seem like she remembers me. She’s like “You were on this ship before right?” Yeah in February. She walks away. I’m pretty sure she wasn’t here in February. That was the first group the people I know that opened Mardi Gras and Celebration. Besides I was barely at this bar on that cruise. I did the menu at Dr. Inks and Golden mermaid first. I think I made it here on the last sea day. How did she know I was here you ask? The fun shops aren’t open yet.

Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24 Author #194 Share Posted August 24 I met Stewart. I think she said to call her Sue…but she may have said to call her Soup. I’m not sure.Her name starts with Sup so it could be either one. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24 Author #195 Share Posted August 24 You know what I just noticed? They didn’t put any wine glasses in this room. And I just told Sue/Soup I didn’t need anything tonight. I was going to try to be nice and not walk around with a straw in my wine bottle this time but they aren’t helping me out. I do have this I could use. 3 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I toy with the idea of vacationing by myself but anxiety takes over. What if I got hurt or sick all by myself. I have eaten alone at a restaurant, and have gone to the movies by myself. Last cruise husband wasn't feeling well and didn't want to have dinner. I liked the menu so I went to the MDR myself. It felt odd like everyone was looking at me in pity which I'm sure was not the case. It helped that my servers were extra friendly and attentive and the head waiter person came and checked on me twice to ask was everything ok and did I need anything and patted me on the shoulder🙂 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ceilidh1 Posted August 25 #198 Share Posted August 25 Bon voyage! I was waving you off today (well, you already left before I knew you were onboard). I betting some of your ship pictures were taken from outside my hotel! 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We go to the International Drive Orlando location when we're down there. 👍 We love the food AND sparkling wine at Cooper's Hawk! The closest one to us is at Waterford Lakes in Orlando so we don't get there too often. When we do go, I usually have at least a case waiting to pick up so that's always fun. But football season starts next week so that will get us over there! 🖤💛⚔️🏈 11 hours ago, blarko said: But what is that?
