Oh, I wish I'd known! I really wanted to meet more Dibbers and FB people, but the lack of free wi-fi doesn't really encourage that.

Oops - couple of things added which I'd forgotten. This is why it's useful to have a hubby who makes videos and can fill in the gaps for me!

Sea-ms like forever since I read the previous post, Gill.


Poot was a bit disappointed on our first night at Carioca's...

"The menu said EMPANADAS, but this (see CRP's plate) is only ONE empanada."

At that point I hadn't yet decided if I was going to tell him that he could ask for seconds of anything...I later did, but empanadas never appeared on the menu again!


Sticking with the food theme, tres leches cake is a very popular dessert chez Gopher - the three milks are evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream. R.C.'s favourite is coconut - but I recently tried out a recipe for a strawberry version.


I am curious to know if your expected table-mates show up tomorrow...(SPOILER ALERT)...we ran away from ours.



...we were meant to try on the life jackets? Oops.

Thank you for sharing so much details.

I have never been on a cruise but it feels like I am right there with you.

The boarding seems very smooth and well organised, though a shame your cabin wasn't as clean as it could have been.

It seems the customer service on the cruise is very good, and the food you have shown so far all sounds lovely. So good of your server to get alternative bread and extra croquettes too.

I remember seeing the Fly Boys on Pitch Battle, they were good then so I am sure they are wonderful live.

So much to explore! Sounds like you did a great job getting your bearings and finding your way around the different areas of the ship.

Great idea to bring the battery operated tea lights, I will have to remember that!

Thank you for sharing your trip

Hi Gill

Only came across your trip report by seeing a reply you gave to another Dibber.

We are booked on our first ever cruise, Western Mediterranean, for August and although it is with Royal Caribbean I decided to read your report, I am so glad I did.

Great report.
