Randyk47 Posted August 24, 2004 #51 Share Posted August 24, 2004 We have "first" breakfast in our cabin, "second" breakfast usually in the Lido. What's first and second breakfast you might ask? My DW needs a transfusion of coffee to get going in the morning and it takes a bit of time for her to get up to full speed (like an hour). In the meantime I usually awake way ahead of her and starving by the time she gets up and really hungry by the time she's fully awake and willing to leave the cabin. Now the easy answer is that I should get dressed and go get breakfast by myself but I like to have breakfast with my wife so I wait. (Depending on the weather I take this time to sit out on the verandah and enjoy the early morning at sea or in a new port.) Solution is that we order coffee, juice, and croissants for "first" breakfast in the cabin. Once DW is up to speed we go to the Lido for "second" breakfast. Sometimes, like days in port with early tours, we expand "first" breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what about elevensies? Luncheon, afternoon tea, dinner, supper? And the all important midnight snack? Do you have hairy feet?:D -dave :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dakrewser Posted August 24, 2004 #54 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Dave - I wondered if anybody would catch that! :D Well some HAL cruisers are young, or young-at-heart, or read the books to their children, or grandchildren. Or maybe knew young "Ronnie" Tolkien as a lad! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randyk47 Posted August 24, 2004 #55 Share Posted August 24, 2004 No kids still at home but DW and I are big time LOR fans. Movies got us to reread the books. Guess we qualify for the young at heart category. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richkat Posted August 26, 2004 #56 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Usually hubby runs up to the Lido and grabs a couple of cups of coffee and a couple of yummies and brings them back to our cabin where we sit out on the balcony to enjoy. Later, once we're up and at 'em and if still hungry, we'll then stop by the Lido to grab something else. But that usually tides us over until lunch. --R&K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scamper Posted August 28, 2004 #57 Share Posted August 28, 2004 If I'm out of bed in time on a sea day, the dining room; if on a port day, the Lido; if I ever get a verandah room or suite, the room; if I'm not out of bed in time, room service. But, frankly, it's been my experience that HAL room service food quality is the pits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
