Looks like the RC website dragon is at it again. Mine looks normal.

Puppy!

If it’s made right it’s actually not. There’s not a lot of cocoa in red velvet cake. Yes, the red is unnecessary but our eyes like it.

Just reading that - I'll never order the apple pie again! Raisins are not bad but not a fan in my apple pie. Or cookies. Or most things.

ugh, raisins.

http://www.thehamiltondc.com/ We go here multiple times, sometimes per day, when we're here. It's crazy busy at times. We've also gone late night after our work was done. We've gone here for lunch, brunch, dinner and late night meals. You can get a hamburger....or a fancy meal....or sushi. http://woodwardtable.com/ Meh service. Best Eggs Benedict I've ever had. Creative take on brunch standards. https://www.chaplinsdc.com/ Best Ramen place I've ever been to. Ever. I work in NYC and have access to a lot. We went here for dinner at 10pm after work. Still had to wait. Worth it. If I can remember any other places I'll let you know. These are the standouts from the last few years.

I go to DC for work once a year. I love it so much. I love work paying for the super fancy (READ: I can't afford on my own READ FURTHER: I may be too cheap) hotels and meals. I'm sure your daughter knows where to eat but if you want any recommendations let me know. DC restaurants are amazing. People there love their food and cocktails.

Working fine for me. I'm hoping you're right though.

Made the mistake of not booking a particular excursion thinking the lowest price would be this Labor Day weekend. I should've booked it when it was $36 cheaper. Whoops.

If you have an adult listed (one parent per room) in each room each adult can bring two but if the kids are only listed then no.

Never had a problem until Harmony. I like a very firm mattress (I have a bad back and need it) but this one hurt - I told my stateroom attendant and he put a mattress pad on immediately and I was very happy.

I feel like I've heard the room service burger is really good. Was it @twangster who said it?

Good. I have a really big land based trip next year. ? No other big trips!

2019? or 2020?

Agreed. I never can seem to talk anyone into the WJ for dinner whenever I cruise. +1 for Indian. Our waiter was thrilled we even asked and brought something every night after.

I'm thinking it's possible the ship is fully booked now. I can't seem to pull up the sailing. Yesterday there were only suites left and today using two different browsers I can't even pull up the sailing. Might be a malfunction?

Following!

I think o I think this is one of those "no need to share times". If you want to, go for for it but it doesn't cross the bad manners line. You can only bring in 2 bottles...that's not a lot to share over a cruise length of time. Enjoy every drop!

For smart casual - black jeans, nice blouses, sundresses. Guys wore jeans/pants and polos/collared shirts.

Your pictures are gorgeous!

Quite possibly their marketing. I was under the same impression but when I was looking into booking a cruise I saw you had to pay.

Short Answer - not important at all. I've never bought the package until recently for my upcoming cruise because I wanted the experience.

Loving the Venice pictures, I'll be there next summer for a non-cruise ? vacation.

Wow, how very environmentally conscious! I did this as a kid.

I read this the same way, I agree...but then I also think they are a company that, while needs to make money, they are responsible for reporting to the correct authorities. If anything happens RC is now on the line for it if they did not report it. There is online proof (by this thread) that they were made aware.
