Cruising on Easter

[flamomo]

We are booked on a sailing on the Diamond to Hawaii that will depart on St Patrick's Day, and we will be onboard on Easter also.

Has anyone cruised over Easter, and was there a traditional Easter dinner (ham, etc.)? Just curious.

I sailed on the Regal to Hawaii at easter time in 2004. they had tons of decorations. especially was the chocolate egg display on the stairwell. we managed to get there the next day when they "gave" these away. they were hollow large (3-4 times football size) choc. eggs. we ended up giving it to our room stewart who was trilled. I don't remmember dinner, but I'm sure they will have something eastery.

I was on the Grand this past Easter and I recall that the did not have anything special for dinner on Easter which I was a little disappointed. I remember I was surprised that they did not serve ham. However, they did have decorations and religious services. Here is a picture of the display they had in the atrium.

Easter had a party in the atrium for the little kids with cookie decorating, religious services for protestant and catholic christians, large decorated chocolate eggs, pretty decorations in atrium and dining areas, a special dinner (try the strawberries and champagne sorbet, if you can get past the special chocolate deserts--or have both). The Easter bunny strolled through during the day (atrium). There were lots of balloons everywhere. It was fun, I'd recommend it.
