You bet your aft we had a good time! A Wonder trip report Update 12/30 p.59-611

[rentayenta]

yeah it was cool of us to up our tips for them as none of us had any problems with them at all. Just the few poel that seemed to take the attitude that I'm paying for this and I want to have extra special service.

Thats good. Prolonged table mate issues wouldn't be any fun.​

One can only imagine AC would not have passed a breath test after that fall lol...or worse a blood test!

How nice that Joshua found a friend

I love that lamp in the room also. I am glad we have different plug system in UK I don't trust myself it would stay lol..I love the cushions also but they were quite pricey to buy something like $300!

Hope you enjoy dinner and funnel vision. I wonder what state your tablemates will arrive in....

Quite a state. See Beth's post below.​

Yes, I am not sure yet how this will work out. I still have my heart set on the Eastbound Transatlantic next year, but the prices have gone crazy and I doubt that even if there will be some discounted rates after the final payment date that they will be within my budget. Plan B is a Florida roadtrip with a little taster cruise on the Dream. In December we are then planning a seven night cruise on the Wonder out of Galveston plus a week or so at Walt Disney World.

Plan B looks good to me. The best of both worlds! ​

I watched AC attack cast members during the episode. She was swinging at her significant other. She punched a cast member before they actually got her physically restrained. She was screaming and flailing. Not like any panic attack that I've seen. More like a psychotic episode. It didn't even look like a drunk episode. It was like she just blinked. Then when we were at Castaway my DH noticed that they had a cast member escorting them everywhere. Sort of like a reverse body guard. He even rode the tram with them.

Oh Beth, this is so crazy to read from your POV. Like I said, if we weren't there, I'm not sure I'd believe it.​

Please come back and finish your TR

I'm here. I had an update ready to go, tried to post twice, and lost it. It's coming. Thank you for sticking around I am sorry for the delay.​

 

[rentayenta]

I am so sorry friends for the ridiculously inexcusable delay.

As Beth mentioned she saw the whole drama take place between our tablemates.

From Beth: I watched AC attack cast members during the episode. She was swinging at her significant other. She punched a cast member before they actually got her physically restrained. She was screaming and flailing. Not like any panic attack that I've seen. More like a psychotic episode. It didn't even look like a drunk episode. It was like she just blinked.

Now I don't know about you all but I have NO clue what in the world AC was thinking or how intoxicated she must have been to PUNCH a Disney CM! Even if she was going for ACSO, she punch a Disney CM. OMG on so many levels.

Beth told us this when we arrived at dinner too. Pam, Joshua, and I arrived before our tablemates. Tonight’s dinner was Trition’s and I was way excited! We had it for lunch earlier in the cruise but this was our only scheduled dinner here. It’s such a lovely restaurant.

We arrived at Triton’s and our sweet servers were ready for us. Joshua ordered a Mango smoothie:



My hot tea was waiting for me and while it was cooling we took a little selfie. Weird I know.



Isn’t the ceiling just gorgeous?



My tea and some bread that I had clearly dug into:



Pam ordered her diet Coke and finally our tablemates showed up…..well 3/5 showed up. AC and ACSO did not. The tween wanted to sit by Pam and the parent seemed not at all happy with this. I am not sure why. Very strange but she did sit by Pam.

Now we had a good feeling that AC and ACSO were not going to show for dimner especially after what Beth had told us so when parent was explaining that AC was upset her but she wasn’t sure why, we didn’t chime in. As a parent she must have been mortified and scared and angry and hurt. We were not about to add insult to injury. We made chit chat with the table and it was pleasant. The funny thing about parent was that she was very likable, bonkers, but likeable especially during a 5 night cruise. Not sure I would have her in my daily life but she was very nice to us.

Arjay and Ozzy were on their game as usual. I really enjoyed their service. I don’t have a copy of the menu but I’m hoping Pam does. Our orders were taken and friend of tween ordered chicken fingers again and Arjay made this super cute ketchup Hidden Mickey:



By this time they were all use to our food porn picture taking and would offer their plates up. See what I mean; super nice and fun but crazy interpersonal family dynamics.

Our food started to come out. Joshua and I had to share the escargot.



I am glad we didn’t get out own as it was very rich; delicious but rich. I think we left 3 of the little fellas.

According to the photos, Joshua and I both ordered lamb chops. There was a mixed grill dish on the menu but we only wanted the chops. Ozzy took good care of this request:





For dessert I finally tried the strawberry sundae Pam had been raving about and she was right; it was SO good!



Joshua got the crème brulee and licked the plate clean.



I found the dinner company and conversation very enjoyable and the food was fantastic!. AC and ACSO never did show up and I believe Ozzy wrapped them food to go. At this point we didn’t know AC was ON ROOM ARREST!!!!!! But we would come to find out later on deck while chatting with parent.

ROOM ARREST on a Disney Cruise! Can you imagine????

Back to our evening……Joshua wanted to do a little shopping for his sisters and DH so we went to the room to change and found this little cutie:



After a quick change we went down to shop. On the way we saw this most wonderful print:



We ended up buying a DCL coffee mug for Michael, some treats for the girls, and a pin each. Joshua said that between Pam spoiling him rotten and all the FE he was more than happy with his souvenirs. Love that kid!

I did take some pics of the shop:

















I really enjoyed the details in this shop.

They were closing so we didn’t make it in time to browse in the shop across the hall but I did take a photo of the souvenir I’d love most next cruise:



I have always loved D&B bags so add a Disney design and I’m sold. Here the bgger version:




Joshua had plans to meet back up with his posse and I wanted to relax on deck. On the way I did get a drive by of the main female Mouse. She was cute enough to wave. Sorry for the blurry shot.



Up next: Pam’s details, therapy on the deck, and CC!!!!

To be continued…..

Right! Room arrest! I cannot even imagine what that looks like. I don't want to get too much ahead of myself but did you know, room arrest isn't a free service? You get charged!


Thanks for still reading and posting. ​

[PrincessInOz]

Room arrest? Wow. Just wow.

I don't even know where to start. I guess AC shouldn't have assaulted a CM.

That would have been a good start. You have to be pretty jacked up and not just wasted but completely out of control. ​

Wow, charged for room arrest? Did you find out how much?

Kate

 

[franandaj]

Wow. Just wow.

I didn't even know there was such a thing as "Room Arrest". So really? That's why they got food packed up for them I guess.

I'm glad that you all were still enjoying yourselves. I can't wait to be back on the Wonder again, it's getting so close!

 

[jedijill]

Wouldn't you like to know what happened after they got off the ship?

[rentayenta]

I want to say it was $300 for the evening. Pam, do you remember exactly?​

Wow. Just wow.

Yes, that's why Ozzy wrapped their food to go. I am not sure how room service works when you're on room arrest? Poor Ozzy and Arjay, I bet they're still telling the tale around the CM table.

I didn't either. I guess there isn't a brig then?

It is getting so close! You, Jill, Cynthia....so many are cruising so soon! ​

That bag is gorgeous! Love it!

Love all the pics of the gift shop!

Dinner looks lovely. Sounds like a pleasant evening with good food, although I am sure there were awkward moments.

Room arrest? Holy crap! It never occurred to me but I suspect that is necessary for an unruly guest. My Oh My!

Oh yeah - welcome back to your TR and thanks for the update!

 

[dolphingirl47]

I am glad that your had a pleasant dinner. The food looked delicious. I am actually surprised that they charge for room arrest as this is probably not handled any different then when somebody is quarantined in their room due to sickness.

The charms pattern is lovely. I have the tote in that pattern. Up to recently, this was my work bag, but has now been replaced by the It's A Small World tote.

Thanks for the update. The dinner looks lovely! Yum to the strawberry dessert

Joshua is sweet to get gifts for his Dad and siblings. Oh my re room arrest. I am surprised they weren't sent off the ship at the next dock. Maybe that is too come....

 

[Shaydi]

wow! I finally made your trip report. dh has been in a couple of Pam's pics (no, not the guy at the pool) but this is my first. probably a good thing you can't see my face too well 'cause I probably had a puss. I thought the food at Triton's was terrible, there was nothing on the menu I wanted so I asked for a salad and they "found" one from another restaurant, it was brown and there was no way that salad was made that day. the only hint of bad service for the whole cruise. our table was adjacent to yours on the Animators night, and we saw some drama with the angry mother and some wrapped food on one of the nights, not sure if that is still to come.

 

[Pinkocto]

Oh it's just too much! Were they already on room arrest? Because they were allowed off at CC. I thought they were on room arrest after 'stealing' parents card and charging drinks? Whatever the case they weren't at dinner and I really think parent and boyfriend were inappropriate with one another and that's why AC was mad.



I LOVE all your pics of the store, those details are sooooo cute!

 

[Pinkocto]

I don't have much to share, just my dinner pictures. I don't have a menu picture, sorry

By now we were all sharing food and as comfortable as could be. It was wonderful.

I had the fried Brie as my appetizer, it was very good but very rich.

J & J shared an escargot with me, too chewy for my liking but I was glad to try one.


Then I had a salad which was excellent

Your lamb chops were not hot, only warm, but you still thought they were great. You and Josh were very sweet and shared your au gratin potatoes with me, they were scrumptious!

I had the lobster mac & cheese and the lobster was off which caused the whole dish to be off

Paulo came and told us about Castaway Cay, right in the middle of Ozzy telling us about CC. Josh was not amused.

My sundae came melted, and even though Ozzy spent quite a bit of time with it it still came out like this...

Josh was pretty awesome, all through dinner he was getting texts from girls, but he stayed to the very end. I was quite impressed.

I love this mural

After dinner we parted ways and I went to update my tips. Poor Ozzy saw me in line and I'm sure he thought I was taking away from him. For the record I was adding. He was taking food to one of the clubs, they have such long work days.

Then back to the room and I saw my wonderful room steward had left me solar gel. I took it up to Jenny because she had gotten a bit burned. We talked about the next day for a few minutes. They were still planning on doing the 5K so I'd meet them on the beach after they were done.

Back to my room where I quickly went to sleep, I wanted to be on CC as early as possible. I had not swum in the ocean yet and I was itching to get some swimming in.

I want that bag SO badly! Dinner was wonderful as suual. Pam is just a good time, fun, easy to be around.​

Room arrest requires extra staffing as there is a guard where quarantine does not involve extra staff.

There's an IASW tote? Do you have a photo?​

Thanks for the update. The dinner looks lovely! Yum to the strawberry dessert

Joshua is sweet to get gifts for his Dad and siblings. Oh my re room arrest. I am surprised they weren't sent off the ship at the next dock. Maybe that is too come....

That dessert was pure heaven! Joshua is a very sweet boy. ​

Glad you're here and

I am sorry you didn't enjoy the food at Tritons. I thought is was excellent.

Your hubby is in our photos?

If there was anger and drama at the table then it was us for sure. ​

Oh it's just too much! Were they already on room arrest? Because they were allowed off at CC. I thought they were on room arrest after 'stealing' parents card and charging drinks? Whatever the case they weren't at dinner and I really think parent and boyfriend were inappropriate with one another and that's why AC was mad.

Remeber parent, almost typed her name, told us that night by the pool?

And there was a CC fiasco too but don't get ahead of yourself. I totally agree! I think that's why they fought so badly too.​

I LOVE all your pics of the store, those details are sooooo cute!

The store was just adorable!​

Sharing food was wonderful, like old friends and functional family. No worries about the menu. We posted one from lunch.

Joshua was having fun texting the girls. He really met some fun friends on that trip. I love that he keeps in touch via FB.

You scored on the room products! Thank you for that gel.

That mural is beautoful. I think Disney went above and beyond with their ships. I haven't been on the new ones yet!


So did we talk with parent near FunnelVision on the last CC night? I knew they were on room arrest though so I must have chatted with her.​

 

[Pinkocto]

I thought you, Jenny, and Carol talked to her in the adult only area before I got there, and when she left we chatted a bit longer by the hot tub. Things are getting fuzzy. I didn't write anything about room arrest that night, but I haven't read the next day either.

 

[Paula Sedley-Burke]

Thanks for your update too Pam oh isn't that mural glorious! Thanks for showing us that. I was blown away by that! Shame the food was a bit off that night. Melting ice cream! I would have to even the score at eye scream! The room housekeepers give you wonderful creatures! I never had the teddy bear figure before too cute! I jus got that hideous monkey ( I hate monkeys ) and would freak every night lol. This year I'm going to say no monkey's already!

Oh exciting CC tomorrow. Highlight of my trip that island.

 

[maggonz9]

Thanks for the update..I'm enjoying your report! Can't believe someone actually ended up on room arrest! What a crazy experience you all had to witness!
