Check in day!  We got 11:30.  

I’ll be there in 17 days.  I’m at 83 right now and in 11 days I board Adventure for 6 nights solo in a Jr.

Great sea day. 150 Central Park for dinner. 

Sometimes people just want to vent about their negative cruise or travel experience. Those issues mentioned may not bother me, but it annoyed the OP enough to find an outlet for his disappointment with his recent cruise. I really don't believe he was looking for suggestions, answers, or a discussion, just somewhere to let someone know how he/she was feeling. And maybe thinking, as many have previously,  that these posts somehow get read by Royal Caribbean.

We have to add B2B or SBS bookings to 7-nighters because they are just too short.  Once I pack to cruise and go through the airline/airport gauntlet I really need to cruise.  Oh the troubles of retirement.

I ordered a tube, too. Must have been a FOMO thing.  After I ordered it, I thought to myself, "Raye, you know you have to actually go OUTside in order to get a sunburn, right ?"  Oh well....if I ever do decide to go outside I guess I will be ready !

I checked ebay, sorry, no luck.

Etsy has these you can personalize with the anchor instead of an initial hopefully. (fingers crossed I inserted image correctly).

You can purchase your Next Cruise Open Booking/certificate in the app while you're on board. No need to schedule an appointment or go to the desk.

We crossed the triple digit mark. 
 
it’s the little things that amuse us I guess  

We just got the express sail pass.  Like the OP, we are on Freedom, Gold, balcony.  Nov 6.  

The only RCL or Celebrity Landry that I know of is the Tide Pods that I take on all of my cruises.  If you have never done it, here is what I do:
I drop a Tide Pod in the bathroom sink and fill it with water. I soak my socks, underwear or shirts in the sink. I hand watch them and toss them in the shower. After getting them, all washed, I jump in the shower. I use the shower to rinse them out. I wring them out using the bar in the shower, then I rinse them again and wring them out one last time. I wrap them in extra towels that I got from the cabin steward.  The towel will help pull out the water. Then I hang them up to dry out. If I am in a hurry, I use the hair dryer to dry them.

Purple indicates you are willing to pay for pizza at Sorrentos. 🤪

We got an Owner's Suite on our 27 November Navigator of the seas cruise for the minimum bid of 190 each.  Upgraded from a Jr Suite.  Never been in anything above Jr Suite so this will be fun!

Probably something you can pay to purchase in the future...

Oceanview on Grandeur did not have one. Read somewhere balcony and up do have one.

I believe only certain cabins on the older ships have them.

Hi Everyone! 
I'm so excited to get back onto a cruise ship. DH is joining me this time and I hope he enjoys it. He always hated it in the past but now he's retired! 🥸 🥳 This is a milestone cruise for me as after day 6 I achieve Diamond status. 🎉 Thank you for all the great info you guys post to this blog. I scour it everyday (multiple times a day - get a life right?! 🤣) and really enjoy the Live Blogs and other tidbits of information.
Cheers! 🤓

I would disagree, I have seen many group rates today that are lower by $400-$500 per person.
