My wife speaks Spanish as her 1st language, and I tell ya.....the sayings that I learn are always entertaining, never ending, and spot on....lol 

That explains why I can't see cruises from Southampton in May, at least they've put me out of my agony!!

Hey @Matt did you see this yet?

Carnival Is Crewing Up Its Cruise Fleet
The cruise industry continues to near a restart in the United States as Carnival Cruise Line has begun the process of bringing crew back to its fleet of cruise ships.
“We are delighted we have now reached the point where we can invite our crew back to the ships,” was what the line wrote in an email sent to select crew and obtained by Cruise Industry News.
Carnival said its team had been “very busy” working with relevant health authorities in developing health and safety protocols to enable a return to guest operations.
“As you can imagine, there have been many changes implemented since you were last onboard,” the email continued, “all developed with the health and safety of everyone in mind.”
The cruise line said in the letter it expects to ramp up its fleet and an email series for crew will launched to help them prepare for what’s ahead, what to do at home, when they will travel and the new way of life onboard.
Carnival also said it would be sending out additional communications to crew over the next several weeks.

Here's a good ? idea.. what could possibly ? go wrong. 

RCCL needs this on our ships.

Well, I didn't see it until today and I'm working, so alcohol is not an option and I gotta do something to entertain myself during breaks!

I came to this post expecting it to be about how we are all "sick" of only being on "land" for the past year.

I was going to post something witty along these lines yesterday but instead I finished my wine and stepped away from the keyboard.

Do you have a picture of the restroom on Deck 5, starboard near the theater?

It's called the "@twangster photo vault" for a good reason. lol

This is taken from Symphony's King of the World.  The door to the cabin area on deck 14 is shown by the red arrow.  Same on starboard not shown.
It's on the other side of the glass so not perfectly clear but you get the idea. 

Here's a link to a really nice tool to explore decks for many ships.  You can also use to see what's above and below your cabin.

you ROCK, Twangster!  You always help me so much... THANK YOU!!  ?  This helps me make my decision for sure!

@twangster I love how you have a picture for everything!

On Allure there is a deck 14 port side forward door that leads to the forward outdoor public deck in front of the solarium.  This doesn't lead to the solarium which is actually on deck 15 and deck 16. 
 
For Allure, this door is how you reach this area:

Note the solarium one deck above looking down onto this deck 14 forward public deck.
There is a starboard deck 14 door but I seem to recall it being blocked or marked as emergency use only.  I'm not positive about this.
