  1. I just can't have loved this blog enough!!! Thank you for taking us with you and your beautiful family. May God bless your girls as they grow into the fantastic women y'all have raised them to be.
  2. On the RCB group cruise on Wonder in Dec '22, we did a bar crawl and I'm 98 3/4% sure that the Irish Car Bomb annhilated me. I can drink my liquor, but mixing with a beer, even a Guinness, is just a bad idea. Gimme a dozen Patron shots instead!!! Travel mercies to all of y'all going home.
  3. I adore your Blogs, but I always feel like I've fallen into the Bougie Pit!! I just made Diamond on our last cruise so haven't even tasted it yet, but I'm like 98 3/4% sure I'll never get to sail in a suite, much less the one you guys are in. My personal genie sounds magical.
  4. We were so blessed on our Wonder cruise week before last - nary a drop of rain to be found! PDCC was so great, even the balloon was flying. That pic of the thruster-buster day makes me sad.
  5. I'll preface this with the proud declaration that I've lost (well, had lost) 34 pounds since Dec, so my appetite isn't nearly what it has been all of my life. I have always gotten the 3 Night Specialty deal but it never went down, so we ate in the MDR (deck 3, table 214 (Ni and Godwin)) every night, save two (Solarium Bistro (outstanding) and the jammer (pretty good). After reading so many negative reviews, especially after BMC (big menu change), regarding MDR food, my bar was set very low and I was prepared to just skip it and eat in the WinJamerr all week. But, to my happy surprise, I thought the food was great! I mean, of all the courses we had, only one thing was not good, and that was the prime rib and it was just too grisly to eat. We usually opted for 3 appetizers (the onion soup may have been the best) and 3 desserts to share. The creme brulee was fabulous, as always. I wish I could remember more details, but the food coma I was in all week degraded my memory (along with the Patron/Grand Marnier margaritas). Service was fast, efficient, and excellent. I did make the cardinal mistake of weighing myself the other day, and now I'm angry with myself for losing my food/drink discipline. I gained 12lbs, which is so much more than usual. I usually don't gain at all. All of the alcohol and food has made my legs super swollen, and I know a lot of my new tonnage is in them. So, my motto is "Don't believe everything you read on the internet" because it was waaay better than I was led to believe.
  6. YAYYYY! I love your blogs so much! We were on Wonder last week, and this week has annihilated me, so I haven't been here all week. Luckily I saw your post on Instagram so I had to run over here. So glad it's only page 3 and I can try to keep up. I hope the four of you have a fabulous sailing!!!
  7. I'm so glad you posted. I was beginning to think my wife and I were the only ones sailing! Don't forget to check in....now. Seriously - now.
  8. I've been waiting and watching for two months to see if the internet and 3-night dining got a Black Friday week deal, or a cyber Monday. Nope. Nada. Zilch. I guess RC doesn't feel the need to put things on special if the ship is full and folks are already buying this stuff.
  9. When I first saw the title, I thought this was going to be about the newer class of small ships.
  10. Excellent blog - bravo! Alllllmost as fun as the Suite Queen LtC Question about Hooked (we didn't eat there on WoS last Dec) - can you get more than one entrée at a seating?
  11. So far, nothing still. Looking for internet, a better DBP, and probably a 3-night specialty dining, but none of them have come down at all. Trying to be patient.
  12. Sorry, y'all - I should have been clearer. Our Wonder sailing is 2/25/24 Nothing new this morning....
  13. On the desktop, for our 2/25 Wonder cruise, there's bupkis. Nada. Squat. I guess I'll look on my phone...
  14. That's such BS - they know that 90% of readers are going to see "60% off" and jump on the meager sales. Otherwise, if it were such a good deal, 100% of readers would it.
  15. We've stayed at the Radison for 7 of our 8 cruises, and have always enjoyed it. It is getting so expensive, though. I have a friend who lives close by and I think I'll see about staying the night before our next cruise in Feb and ubering to the port. He works at KSC and has offered, so I think I'm going to take him up on it.
