How do you carry cash on board (when boarding)?
AlmondFarmer replied to Oldguy's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I suitcase mine, in a baggie. -

Love Connection is what I would want on a cruise without my wife too. -
Incredible Entitled Chair Hog Stunt.
AlmondFarmer replied to Fuzzywuzzy's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I think Royal should clear the decks and have it be bring your own lounge chair. The porters might object to this. -

What is your ballpark yearly budget?
AlmondFarmer replied to Dimension's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
$30,000/year. Two Star class week long sailings for my family of 5. There, I said it. P.S. please keep buying almonds. -
My family used this in November 2019. It is now laughingly referred to as the “Jolly Trolley”. The drop off was more than a mile from terminal A. I had three very young kids, suitcases and an angry wife. We made the trek which briefly involved walking on shoulder of road due to Norwegian terminal construction. Never again. All trips since have involved a $20-$30 Uber ride. Life lesson for my family: some things are free for a reason. Note: if using a different terminal the walk may be short and safe or additional drop off points available.

Communication on Labadee
AlmondFarmer replied to Supernerd1951's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
Smoke signals, although not specifically banned in cruise contract, are likely frowned upon while on ship or private islands. Carrier pigeons are also questionable. -
Also curious. Especially if incident happened at 2:30. Tooth-Hurty my 6 year old insisted I repost this.

Now closest Sky suite to Casino….for what it’s worth. -
Did the incident happen at 2:30? This is a very common time to need dental help.

Allure and Harmony doing nautical high five?
AlmondFarmer replied to AlmondFarmer's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I allowed my imagination of Captains having a drag race or some other shenanigans while passing without passengers, to overtake my analysis of dates. All good and I’m glad to now be less full of mistakes. -
Well now we know what is to come for Diamond members
AlmondFarmer replied to RCIfan1912's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I suggest Malarky. And for those of you having a hard time determining if another passenger is Pinnacle, be patient, they will likely tell you. -
Allure and Harmony doing nautical high five?
AlmondFarmer replied to AlmondFarmer's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I mixed my dates up. You are correct. Allure leaves Texas for Florida before Harmony leaves Florida (Miami not Canaveral) for Texas. So much for the horn honk. Hopefully both ships get freshened up on their non passenger sailings. -
At the end of October 2023, Harmony departs port Canaveral and heads for Galveston for the first time. Allure departs Galveston and heads to port Canaveral to begin short cruises. Neither of these repositioning sailings were for sale so I’m assuming they will be without passengers to freshen up ships. (When Allure first went to Galveston last fall she got El Loco Fresh en route) I’m wondering what occurs when ships pass each other. This should be close as both ships are likely to take most direct route. Is there a maritime tradition equivalent to a high 5 on land?

Depending on average cruisers weight gain per cruise and number of cruises 2,000 pounds would be about 8 cruisers. Need to be lots of tons to overfill Diamond Lounge. -
Norway Itinerary on Anthem 6/14/24
AlmondFarmer replied to John-NC's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I’m booked for the sailing June 21, 2024. I have booked excursions in the Royal Caribbean cruise planner for each stop. Many choices available. -
Bring some watermelon from feed lot (Windjammer) to Boleros. Have bartender muddle some mint like they would for a Mojito. Ask nicely for watermelon to also be muddled. Mix with Smirnoff vodka, or something more palatable. Enjoy. (watermelon will add a trace amount of calories)

See you on Icon Of The Seas!
AlmondFarmer replied to CHRIS WONG's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
If you check in last minute do you get one of the last boarding times? -
Or maybe zero calorie vodka? If vodka contains no calories, something is terribly wrong.

I have a group of 40 with 5 Star suites on Harmony this Nov 5th. I will provide highlights of sailing.

Even once height above water line is known, a key variable remains unknown. Extent of climate change and sea level rise. Thanks Carbon and Methane.
