    RazorbackIslandGirl got a reaction from JLMoran in Suggestions on Pictures / Video Recordings   
    I just went from a 6s+ to the Xr+ & really like it. I find the camera to be MUCH better. I'm still trying to figure out all the bells & whistles. They told me it is waterproof up to 3 ft for 30 min. Not sure I will test that theory.? I do have to say I'm really liking it so far.

    That is wonderful to hear! I'm so excited! It's been almost 2 years since I've been in SC so, I can't remember much about pre-cruise business.? We have been on smaller ships without SC since. I can't wait to be back on Oasis Class (my favorite)! There's no comparison when it comes to suite perks! 18 days!! HOS here we come!?

    Yeah the pricing after 4 people drops significantly for each additional person you add.  The villa was 600 more for the entire trip than 2 GS and multiple rooms in some cases were close if not more than the suite.  I think the villa is a no brainer myself as we would want the Key added if not booking a suite.  I went ahead and booked the Villa for April of 2021.

    I’d also do the villa, if you’re going to be paying the money you’re paying, why would you not want to have all the perks and space it comes with?  Plus 2 points per night.
    Booking balcony rooms, you’ll basically have bedrooms for everyone and nothing else ........ in a villa, you’ll have bedrooms PLUS all the extra living space outside the bedrooms ............ to me it’s a no brainer and it would be FOOLISH  to not get the villa with all the money you’re spending no matter what.

    For me, the Villa would be my choice. 1300 sq ft is more square footage than you would have in 4 reg balcony rooms. I also believe there are 4 bathrooms. So unless you do 4 suites you will have more room & have everyone together. And I think the suite perks tips the scale! JMHO

    Day 4 - sea day .
    The boat time was changed to fit Greek time so we lost one hour , but good they have done it before a sea day so we can adjust. What can I say , regular sea day were you have time to rest and explore the ship. Breakfast  in the MDR, for some reason was only until 9:30 am , remember we just changed the watch so we all forced to WJ , it was super crowded but we found some space outside. We went to some lecture about the next ports , it was mainly the port/shop consultant telling us which shops she and RCL are getting the best commission also some tecnic to make sure the shops knew we came from the ship so no lost revinew. I don't miss some guest lectures which actually do not try to sell you anything. Had a visit to the casino , empty as always. Played some 3 card Poker , got straight  3 time in a row ,also with the 5 cards bonus, 30 seconds after the host replaced the dealer and I left 5 hands later (or too late ? but still ip ) not before collecting some water on the way out as was recommended by @Matt in one of the posts , here is my current stockpile 

    We went for lunch in WJ , they had Shuarma which was very  good and baklava we I took second portion (telling myself I will walk 6000 more steps to pay for it , or at least dream about it


    We went to rest and watch some movie, that followed by our daily visit to the Diamond club which continues with excellent service , I guess it easy when you have only 14 people at the club and most are the same one every day , a combination of Europe route and a small boat. We went to see the battle of the sexes  , the women won ... Quick dinner at WJ , few rounds around deck 5 and we went to sleep as are next port is Santorini and we have a shore excursion that starts at outrageous  7 am time ? 
    Side note , our cabin attendant is very good in many aspects and we are very happy with him , but let say towel animals is not his strong side , at least he is trying ?

    RazorbackIslandGirl reacted to twangster in Frequency of Alcohol Fuelled Incidences   
    The types of incidents that make the news are few and far between.  Things can happen with or without alcohol when people perceive someone has done them wrong.  On an increasing basis people are easily offended when they see something that isn't their way of living.  A few people drinking and talking loudly in a hot tub is just good fun and enjoyable to some people but downright outlandish and god forsaking to someone who doesn't drink based on their religion.  
    I was on a cruise over Super Bowl and didn't observe any outlandish drunken behavior or fights yet people went into a FB group to complain "drunken people were all over the place wreaking havoc on their vacation the whole cruise".

    And again, had it been my wife and I in this situation, it would have been the reverse of Sabrina and hubs-bot -- I'd have said 150 CP, she'd have said Jamie's, and I'd be eating Italian food that night. ?
    That said, this...
    would have totally made the "sacrifice" worth it, assuming it's the same garlic truffle tagliatelle that I had at Chef's Table on Freedom. And if I had room left after that, I'd have asked for a side portion of the carbonara. Because like @FloridaCruiseGirl1210, I live for carbonara. At least, as long as it isn't made with cream (or heaven help us, peas! ?)
