Psycho and Barb

Bring back skeet shooting

My shaving kit since it’s about the last thing I use. All our SetSail pass, Covid cards, Covid test and itinerary going in a folder that we make up as soon as we book the cruise. That folder and passports go into a backpack.

None. Each has its appeal to different cruisers and even though we may not use one or two items on your list…We wouldn’t want them removed. Sorry I’m sure not the answer your were looking for.

Miss the days when Royal had indoor cigar smoking areas.

1. It goes on your Cruise Planner and if you do it early enough you can use it to purchase Special meals, Etc. 2. If it's on your cruise Planner and you haven't spent it...You gratuities will be deducted from it. Your OBC is like a checking account...You spend or the she ship uses it to pay for your tips and once its gone, you will be billed for anything over your OBC. 3. We are not sure about this one because we always pay our taxes and port charges before we ever step on the ship.

If you are comfortable with the price depending on how much you might drink a day...Buy it. But, keep watching your Cruise Planner and if you see it cheaper...Cancel and rebuy it at the cheaper price, Keep watching your Cruise Planner incase you find it cheaper again.

We were on Radiance last month...Cruising from Vancouver to Alaska and the ships Wi-Fi was not very good sometimes due to the clouds and mountains. Didn't try Cellular at Sea due to the cost. However, during a lot of the inside passage we did pick up land based cell towers and we would use them when the ships Wi-Fi was down or spotty.

We went to a USB hub charger years ago…All of our electronics can be charged by USB. Here is what we use and never had a problem getting it onboard.

Now that's a GREAT TA!!!

We don’t keep our cups but we bring them home and donate them to our local nursing home or senior living center. They use them as prizes for bingo and the residents love them.

They had the regular cups on the Radiance last month…They were not in our room waiting for us like the old days…Same thing with our last three cruises. We just had to ask for them at any bar.

I can broaden my horizons and do it with a good Bourbon but when Royal has no bourbon anywhere on the ship. It’s time for management to step up and fix the dang problem.

Naa they had tons of vodka

Just got off the Radiance in Alaska and we not only had no Crown Royal but no Bourbon of any kind for the first day but found some somewhere on the ship…Ran out the last night.

Thats exactly what we do and unfortunately, we haven't found many good deals in a few years.

Yes in the bathroom only on most ships

Ordered on 26 may through a post office website. COVID Home Tests | USPS

Did not know they stopped proctoring. They were never our primary plan…Got Walgreens scheduled for next Wednesday. Our Walgreens is back to scheduling a week out. Would of been a nice back up though since they were free and the proctor cost was reasonable. We have heard about another proctoring company that allows testing with multiple brands of test kits. Don’t know anyone who has used it though. https://www.totaltestingsolutions.com/individual-testing/virtual-result-verification/

Have lots of gortex issued in my military days. It’s bulky and warm…Hot in nice weather though. I actually prefer lightweight frog tog type rain gear.

You can also make reservations for everyone

Light weight thermals and other warm items to allow you to layer as required. A good set of rain gear is a must also.

Today we received 8 more of the free Government tests. Got lucky and all of them are the IHealth brand.

We also purchased the passport holders with the Covid card window. When we get to the port we put our setsail passes and Covid test in the center...Makes check-in sooo much smoother and faster.

We will be there on the Radiance of the Seas in 11 days. Sure hope they have Crown Royal…Sailing out of Canada but who knows. We will let everyone know.

We had the same guide and bus driver the whole time and we did tip them both afterwards. They made sure our luggage was at our hotel room every night and they picked it back up in the morning.
