Lynn, I create a facebook group for every cruise we sail. As the host of the group, I host events for those who join our facebook group. It's a lot of fun. Look for a facebook group for every cruise you sail. Put in the cruiseline, ship and date, there is usually a group.

The best wardrobe design is the one on the older ships with the open hanging space opposite the bathroom door. It's like having a walk in wardrobe and feels luxurious. Big doors on small wardrobes that open into the aisle are just bad design. But they do have the hand held shower😅
@travelingtrishthiel24 күн бұрын
😂😂😂😂 oh my goodness, good thing I was drinking water and not coffee when I read your last comment. 😂😂😂😂 Honestly, the hand held shower was the only good thing about that bathroom. On the last two days the shower plugged up and was practically running over. They finally fixed it our last full day on ship. ❤
@Sean-C24 күн бұрын
you would think that they would at least make the bathrooms a bit bigger by doing away with the large couch.
@travelingtrishthiel24 күн бұрын
Sean, I agree with you. I'm thinking this design served a couple purposes. First people kept saying the loveseats were too small or non-existent so they gave people what they asked for. Secondly, it's cheaper to put a large couch in than it is to pay for more bathroom features. This design is fine for normal people. My son who is just chunky thought it was too tight also and he's much smaller than me. I'm waiting for my first "Well, just lose weight comment. " 😂

I commented before the end of the video. I have heard the same thing about the bathroom from lots of vloggers. Also that you better make sure you leave a towel on the sink so you can reach it when you do want to get out of the shower. We had similar problem on MSC and there bathroom was square. Honestly, one extra foot in the bathroom and a smaller sofa would be just fine.
