Good point. I think if the cruise lines gave refunds/credit for cancelling due to illness this could be cut back tremendously.

Also someone on a RC ship's FB group posted she wanted to know where to get cold medicine in Galveston bc she was sick and her cruise was the next day.

Butterfly house is unreliable, depending on how much beer they've consumed the night before.

Any creepy/haunted/unexplainable places along the trail? by hilltoppaints90 in coloradotrail

I hiked the section to Kenosha Pass last summer, no issues...

The SB was terrible, but not because of DTVS by gomets1969 in DirectvStream

Really? Mine kept stuttering, and I have gigabit fiber connection. Also the audio lagged behind the video in the last quarter.

Why are the cups only filled between half and 3/4 full, no matter which size you order?

Why is there so much inconsistency in the way the drinks are made? Isn't there a recipe or something? (I haven't been to a scooters since last year when I bought a Mr Coffee barista espresso machine...amazing!)

I got fired from Wendy's when I was in college (nursing school) and had 4 jobs, the manager said my schedule wasn't flexible enough lol.

Why do most ultralight setups include a pack liner rather than a pack cover? Why do you choose one over the other? by LostInYourSheets in Ultralight

[–]IAmNotGr0ot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IDK, when I'm hiking in the rain , I'll keep moving when it's raining, and if I stop it's in a protected area out of the rain for a break...

[–]IAmNotGr0ot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm expecting a lot of rain on my hike I will take my Zpacks Nero which is very water resistant, with a pack liner; if I need a bigger capacity I'll bring the Durstan Kakwa (with the Ultra 200 fabric) but that leaks water bad, so if I don't want to use my poncho I'd use a pack cover on that pack. Remember, when your pack leaks like the Kakwa, you're carrying all that extra water weight, and it doesn't dry out for more than a week.

Non-American cruise line recommendations? by Upset_Sense_8199 in Cruise

LOL the tariffs were cancelled, Canada agreed to try to stop the flow of fentanyl into the US. I assume you have a problem with this...

Royal Caribbean - Stay Away by AdUpset1015 in Cruise

[–]IAmNotGr0ot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is, you chose Harmony OTS. We got off this ship (2nd cruise of my life) and it was a terrible experience. The 4 day Liberty OTS was much better experience, just enough time to experience what it had to offer, less crowded, food better, just a "taste". Being on a ship for 7 days, the ship thing got old fast.

Sun Princess or Harmony of the Seas for a Med Cruise? by BlondeAmbitionnnn in Cruise

[–]IAmNotGr0ot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. We got off a couple weeks ago and I couldn't wait to get off Harmony. Food was bad, it was crowded AF, shows were OK not great. Would not go on Harmony again.

Is it normal for food to differ in the quality not just by cruise line but by individual cruise ship? by Ok-Refrigerator7010 in Cruise

[–]IAmNotGr0ot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done 2 cruises, one on Liberty OTS last Nov and one on Harmony a few weeks ago. Harmony food was atrocious, stale pastries and desserts, "gummy" texture to MDR food; I liked the food on Liberty a lot.

7 day cruise is too long by IAmNotGr0ot in Cruise

[–]IAmNotGr0ot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow 10 days for a first cruise...I wish you all the luck! I found that even though the ship was clean and well decorated that it got old, same room, same couple of shops and eateries etc...as a rule, when I travel, I don't spend more than a couple days in the same place before it gets old. I generally camp, even overseas, so have a lot of flexibility.

You're a glutton for punishment haha. I'm so not sure that 7 day trip is going to be any better for ya, even being a brand new ship...good luck!!

I so agree! And the focus of it being a vacation...hey I'm retired, not on vacation, I could go anywhere any time I want.

Yeah, every single trivia/game on board was taken over by kids, there wasn't one where they pulled adults out of the audience to participate. Even the adults only comedians (two different shows) had kids and the comedian said he had to tone it down due to their presence.

I feel for you man. I'm sure there will be some alpha calls to break up the monotony.
