  1. Thanks
    Ron Rico got a reaction from RTripp in Just off Harmony & CocoCay - stray observations   
    My family and I were on this same cruise! I can't believe we didn't run into you - lol! (wink, wink)
    Roatan - We did the Jolly Rogers snorkeling here. It was fantastic! Everything was top notch and the crew were super. The views under the water were spectacular! (and no mosquitoes!)
    Costa Maya - The smell was horrible!!! We did the same here - got off ship, looked around and made it back before the rain. 
    The Key - I purchased this for my family. The first day lunch was held in the MDR, but was Chops food. The menu was more limited than a regular lunch at Chops though. However, the cheesecake was the best I have ever had - anywhere! So good! Dropping off carry on luggage was right outside of the MDR. Easy and fast - and in our room before we were. 
    Bing Bong Marc - Agree again - excellent! However, he was not the host of Quest. Some other person was, who never introduced himself. In my opinion, he wasn't as good as Marc. He seemed very hurried and almost acted as if he didn't want to be there. That said my team won, so happy about that! 
    Wow bands - I agree - they worked great at all bars! 
    CoCoCay - We didn't get off the ship. I know, I know, but we live in the Orlando area and have water parks and beaches at our disposal. However, the luxury of having a humongous cruise ship to yourself, not so much. So we enjoyed the pools, slides and bar service on the ship with about 20 other new friends. It was a perfect day! As we were leaving breakfast around 9:45 a.m., Marc announced that over 2000 passengers were already off they ship!!
    Overall, it was a great cruise for my family! Can't wait to go back!!

    Keeping in mind what SpeedNoodles said about her door decorations being swiped, I ordered a magnet with our wedding photo on it (Zazzle.com about $5), figuring no one would have any need for it. My husband said, "There, anyone who steals that will just have to be happy for the rest of their lives!" Which pleased me very much.

    We have nine cabins. Each door will be decorated to celebrate the different careers in our family. Teachers, students, veterans, retire parents, doctor, police, computer nerd, electrician are fun ways to encourage our young people about careers. We go all out.

    I love decorating the door.  I had one made on Etsy and it just makes the door stand out to me, in the sea of identical looking doors.  I'm horrible with remembering cabin numbers, but I'm great at finding the door decoration!

    We decorated the door last Thanksgiving on Anthem. Just bought a dollar tree stuff. They are cheap and if they disappear then we do not feel bad. Anyway, it stayed on the whole trip without incident.

    I have decorated my families doors in the past, too. Graduations, Anniversaries and other special events (see below) have been recognized. I create my signs in MS Word, print on 11x17 paper and laminate. Then I use magnetic strips to adhere to the cabin door. I think it's fun and festive! ?  
    That said I am not aware of a Royal Caribbean equivalent to Fish Extenders.
    Below is an example of one of my "homemade" signs. This one was for my son and his wife. They now have it on their refrigerator at home. I guess they liked it, too! ?

    I ordered this personalized door magnet for $9.00 on Etsy.  It comes with us on every cruise.  Although our last cruise it did not do its job.  We were awoken one night around 3am to a guy mistaking our room for his.  I thought our last name on the door would have been the first clue he had the wrong room.  I'm pretty sure the drink package was involved in that episode!  Anyways, I love our little magnet.  It hangs on the side of our frig until it can cruise again!

    I tried. I didn't have them on my door for 2 hours before one of them disappeared.

    I am decorating my door, and my family that will be joining us will also be decorating their doors.  The beauty of this, especially on a larger ship is those hallways can be long....if your door is decorated it is so much easier to find them.

    It's unlikely this will ever come to fruition but I think I know where the Carnival executive team will be in June...
    Secretly a part of me would like to see a judge issue such an order.  Seriously doubt it will happen though.

    5 Night or longer.  Short cruises typically don't get lobster.
    Caribbean lobster, tail only.  (Not a Maine or NE lobster)
    If there are two formal nights it's usually the second formal night in the MDR.  
    Pro tip - you can order more than one tail.

    Ron Rico reacted to J_Keeble in BOGO dining offer only includes samba grill and Giovannis?   
    I have booked on harmony oasis and symphony and never had any trouble at all with anything, they always allowed the offer to be used at 150, chops and wonderland. I never had nay problems booking in to any restaurant.
     
     I would recommend once you have booked the BOGO that the first thing you do onboard is to book the resturants you want and the times. that ay you will get the times that you want. again from experience I've never had nay problems apart from Allure where is wasn't in the mood to argue so just went with it and had a great time.
