Pooch

Oh no I absolutely agree with that.  I usually ask for a small side dish of the “food experiment”.  This cruise I don’t have to worry.  I’m bringing 2 human garbage pails in the persons of my brother and nephew.  Swear to God they will eat ANYTHING!!!

Oh boy do I feel this one.  The Clean Plate Club guilt is real.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If you try and just don't care for the escargot, don't eat them. Just pick them out of the copious remaining garlic butter and take advantage of sopping up with bread or pouring over your potatoes or vegetables when the main course arrives. Whatever you do - DON'T let them clear that plate until every drop of butter is consumed!

Thanks Ashley, we switched from Western to Eastern when we did the lift & shift and I’m beginning to regret it.  But we will be on Harmony so it’s all good.

WAAAYTOO will probably weigh in on this, apparently a favorite of Dan’s.  Ok the fact that I know that means I spend waaaytoo much time on these boards!!!

Ok so shopping is out.  Original cruise had Key West and Costa Maya for shopping/sightseeing & Cozumel & Grand Cayman for beach.  Now it’s Coco Csy (beach) Antigua (beach) St Thomas (beach) ☹️☹️ 

Sorry CC, but, they aren't snails. They are escargot which is a French delicacy and especially prepared on RC ships. If you like a buttery sauce with over tones of garlic, these will rock your boat (sorry for the pun). The escargot have a very mild-almost not there flavor and the tenderness of sautéed scallop. The combination of the sauce, or what's left of it after the escargot have been consumed, a nice white white (I prefer a Pint Grigio) and that bread soaking (sopping) up the sauce is a taste bonanza that will not soon be forgotten. If you think you will still be afraid to try them, I recommend copius amounts of dry martinis before you enter the dining room. ?

What’s to be afraid of?  It’s a cruise, if you don’t like them, move them to the side and get something else.  I always try new things on a cruise cuz you aren’t stuck with a dish you don’t like.

Heck I just want to get on the ship.  Can aways warm the roll under your arm. ?

Who needs a pat of butter, aren’t the rolls for sopping up the butter on the escargot???

??yup this is pretty much an all expense paid trip for son and daughter.  Someday they’ll pay for us ?‍♀️?‍♀️

Ok yes, and because they don’t have the casino revenue to help with costs and it would seem that the drinking revenue would be much less on Disney.  I am a Disnut through and through but I can’t justify DCL prices.

SO GLAD to be able to discuss cruising instead of arguing about Covid!!!

Starbucks coffee always tastes scorched. They roast the beans at too high a temperature (strike 1), grind the beans too quickly (strike 2), and brew at a higher temperature than required (strike 3).
And if you add ANYTHING to the brew, you're not drinking coffee correctly.

But it’s an ala carte menu so if they don’t want the app & dessert that comes with the  prepurchase, they can just order what they want? Yes?  I am not necessarily looking for the lowest price but for them to get whatever they want.  I also assume this can all be charged to my on board account via my son’s seapass card linked to my CC?

So nice to have you and your generous expertise back.  I have missed your practical advice.
