may2012 Posted August 7, 2012 #130 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Day at SeaWe set the alarm and woke early so we could go to breakfast. We were seated with 6 other people. There were 2 nice ladies from Conn. that were fortunate enough to leave their 2 small children with their husband while they went on the cruise. The other 4 were chinese from Brooklyn NY. they sat talking in chinese ignoring us totally. Didn't even get a good morning from them. I assumed it was due to language barrier until one asked a waiter a question in english just as good as we were speaking. Since it was the beginning of the cruise I figured it wasn't going to be the norm...BOY WAS I WRONG!!! All threw out the cruise these 1000+ chinese were rude, line jumping, casino winning thieves that just happened to remove their expensive tips on the last day (whopping $40 each). It just burned my butt seeing them all being so cheap! to each their own but I'm sure the stewards for all these people didn't appreciate working for next to nothing. I'm sure a few stewards were flagged for all of this removing of tips and just hope that none got reprimanded thanks to them being cheap. After breakfast we had a small amount of time before our roll call so we jumped on the balcony for a quick smoke and then headed upstairs for our roll call meeting. Only the 2 that we had previously met and a guy with his parents showed. Some either forgot where it was or figured they were too late for it. We sat and chatted for about 2 hours and then headed off to the lido buffet for lunch. This was where we ate almostthe entire cruise last year and I knew what to expect. A nice variety of different dishes and atleast warm food. While the food was just ok it was what it was. Later that evening was formal night which brought out a few interesting people. Some tables were completely empty and our tablemates were a no-show again. We had requested a friend join us for dinner but were told that they couldn't because there'd be people sitting there. That was the only flaw with the dining room other then the dancing messing up the flow with desert. These were our dinner waiter and assistant. EKA and his assistant (forget her name) were brother/sister and truely made dinner memorable. And I have some questions for @malittlefoot971. 1. Which Boat were you on? 2. Which Restaurant were you in? I am curious because I recently was on Carnival Conquest in the Renoir Restaurant, and Eka was my waiter. And at the end of the cruise one of the people that works on the boat said they were changing crew members. And the date tag on you picture says 2009, so that clearly means he has been with Carnival for a while. I just wanted to know if Eka transfers to other Carnival Ships. Please Reply. Thank you :):):):) http://boards.cruisecritic.com/images/smilies/smile.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the crew change ships at some point, some more frequently than others. Not surprising that Eka would be on the Conequest now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
