  1. No idea where we are... But it is a helluva lot warmer than where we were. High of 17 today. Costal Kitchen for breaky then Ifly. North star ressys this afternoon as well. 856 kids on board. 200 aquanot aged kids... Only 30 spaces per session in that room. Thank God for the drink package and WiFi while we wait... (go ahead.. Judge me. I'll sleep fine). More to come later after I drive 15 cocktails into my yap. Ask any questions.
  2. There was lots of beer in my room. Not as much anymore. Must be evaporating as I get further south. Dinner tonight was in the CK. Pork belly app was spectacular. Filet was very good for a main. Cheesecake for dessert was very good. Service was phenomenal. Wonderland and Ifly tomorrow.
  3. Not stepping foot in the MDR for the first time ever. Our genie booked escape room. I'll see if I can get any info. Menus should be the same from cruise to cruise.
  4. Burger. Fish and chips. Peanut butter deliciousness on the bucket list.
  5. I'll give you that. Brooklyn lager is the closest American brew to Creemore Springs (my favourite beer) that I've found to date.
  6. You raise a valid point about Michael's. I'll gladly give those brews a try.. But this Canadian is discerning when it comes to barley and hops.
  7. Greetings all. I'm writing to you from my pre-cruise hotel listening to the dulcet tones of airbuses and boeings flying overhead as I await the arrival of the Anthem tomorrow morning. Travelling with me is my wife, 3 year old daughter and a friend of ours who has NEVER CRUISED BEFORE. We are staying in a grand loft suite (I feel she may be screwed for any subsequent cruise if she likes...) I'll do my best to post here daily but copious amounts of watered down American beer (if you can call it that) may get in the way. Feel free to ask any questions. I'll do my best to answer them. Oh. Before I forget.. The Lids store located within the Jersey Garden mall had paw patrol hats on for 50% off. I know you'll sleep better knowing that. Cheers.
  8. That. looks.awesome. RCI has long ignored sports fans. Other lines have catered to us. As mentioned above, technology has improved. RCI should be able to give us the NHL/NFL/MLB/NBA/NCAA we crave!!!
  9. I'm not sure why this is. Location and proximity to the Coastal Kitchen/Suite Lounge perhaps? The Loft suites seem to be more opulent ( I've not yet sailed in an ATS). The ATS are a bit bigger, have a second bedroom and that balcony!
  10. I contacted my TA by email last night. He replied this morning. The price of our A1 suite on HOS dropped by 3000$. I was shocked because there is no inventory for this March break sailing.
  11. Another Canadian company doing well making products for RCI. Handling Specialty is the company that makes the lifts for the Aqua Theatre pool.
  12. No problem with flip-flops in the MDR. The dress code is rarely (if ever) enforced.
  13. If only they had Canadian/Mexican coke made with real cane sugar instead of the garbage that is sold in the USA made with high fructose corn syrup...
  14. Go through a different security line at a different time then your cabin mate and you should be able to get 2 more bottles of wine on.
  15. Your best bet might be just to buy a one day Voom pass and upload the document from your own device.
  16. I've done it three times. The first time, I sent my folks on their first cruise for the 30th anniversary... It was on the Carnival Triumph out of NYC ( Don't hate me- it was cheap. I was younger and on a budget). We gave them separate gift bags containing motion sickness pills and I want to say sun screen. In the next bag was a folder with a picture of the ship leaving the NYC harbour with the Mahattan sky line in the background and all of their travel docs. We've since sent brought both sets of folks with us on the Radiance with us in Alaska in 2013 and the Harmony last year. Last year was much less ceremonious... " Hey- can you guys look after the grand daughter? " "Of course, when? " " Night 6 we want to go to Chops.. oh, ps, you're coming with us"
  17. Never stayed in the Royal Loft.. But you are correct.. As someone who has been lucky enough to have travelled in Star Class this is not something that would be any benefit to me.
  18. You can have 6 people in a cabana. They don't care if they are in a suite or not once they get the wrist band after you sign them in.
  19. Hi all. I'm sailing on the Anthem in less than 2 weeks. Our first trip on this class. I heard a rumour the other day that said the indoor pool's roof has uv protection and you won't get a burn. Can anyone comment on this?
  20. The feed is the NFL international feed. Same video( unless they cut away to show on air talent) for the most part. While the international feed does have a few of their own cameras they let the main network do the heavy lifting. Same wild sound for ambient sounds... they get a feed from NBC... Different announcers . No Al,Cris and Michele... and since the advertisers pay NBC for the commercial real estate, no American commercials. The world feed is sold to broadcasters all over the world who then sell their own ads.
  21. One of my favourite perks. Sabor on my balcony? I think so! Next month will be lunch from Michael’s!
  22. Tried that with the dining room staff. Even asked my genie. No dice.
