cruiselife4me Posted March 6, 2009 #28 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I agree - your blog is fascinating. As someone who always wanted to be a crew member (but now is too old...waaaaa!) it's really fun to read! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Teen Posted March 7, 2009 #29 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Feel free to bring me along with you! :D My mom & I are still saving up for a possible cruise this December on VOTS! (Voyager of the Seas in Royal Caribbean talk.) :D Anaway... Congrats on winning your cruise! I hope Norwegian will forgive you for missing a week of work!

jrljel Posted March 11, 2009 #30 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Congratulations! I won a cruise on Rhapsody of the Seas in 1997 and that's what started all this craziness! Before that, we had the WORST time on a now defunct ship of Carnival, the old Mardi Gras and I swore I would never cruise again. I'm so happy that now I want nothing other than RCCL to cruise with! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aucruiser Posted March 11, 2009 #31 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Congrats on your prize! I have just discovered your blog and will enjoy keeping up with your posts. My husband and I sailed on the Pride of America a couple of years ago. It really is a great way to see the islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallivanting Souls Posted March 23, 2009 #32 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Congratulations! I am envious to say the least. When I found your post last night, I spent a while reading your blog and watching your youtube videos. My 16 yr old thinks he wants to work on a cruise ship. We'd definitely like to hear more about what it takes to work on a cruise ship. I'm sooo excited! I'm currently working on a ship but I spoke to my mom last night and we won a free cruise on Royal Caribbean (7 day Caribbean) with free airline tickets and a hotel room! We entered the contest at a Cleveland Cavs basketball game and we won! I'm going to book it for my vacation in Aug/Sept but I'm thrilled I can finally try Royal. Thanks for reading I'm just so excited I had to post something!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodAsGold Posted March 23, 2009 #34 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Is that your Golden in the small photo? Gorgeous dog! :) Hey OP... This is totally off the mark, but, there has been a lot of debate on the RCCL boards of late regarding what the staff of cruise ships make. Now, I am not asking what you make, but could you verify for us by starting a new thread? Maybe an average? What do waiters / bartenders make salary-wise before tips? I have been told around $100 per month before tips. Could you also verify if the staff is given all tips or if the cruise lines keep a portion? Thanks in advance and congratulations!!

lovetocruise75 Posted March 23, 2009 #35 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Is that your Golden in the small photo? Gorgeous dog! :) Thanks! Yes, That's my other daughter! 4 years old and as much of a part of the family as anyone!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petesweet Posted March 23, 2009 #36 Share Posted March 23, 2009 :DCongratulations! I enjoy your help over on the NCL boards, and it seems as if all that good Karma is coming right back at ya. Don't forget the Royal now has "My Time Dining", so request that if you wish. Or better yet, try the traditional dining so you can really compare RC with NCL. Whichever you try, CONGRATULATIONS!!
