Last 4 cruise's I ate EVERYTHING including Eggs Benedict with "extra Hollidase suace" I never skipped dessert. I have never gained more than 2 pounds. To much walking on the ship. I plan to do the same on this cruise

We do the same, you should see my husband's face when I tell him no to the elevator, even if we are on 2 and going to deck 9 - come on, you have to work off that food somehow!!

We'll see you both going from 6 to 9 on the stairway. That's where the soft serve ice cream is right??

Man, I was hoping no one would pick up on that! Now you caught me!

Now if you want to really enjoy the ice cream you go over to the drink station and get a 'real' cup then toddle back to the ice cream station....not that I would do anything like that......

Only wish they had root beer at the drink station. A coke float just isn't the same to me. And yes I've used the cups from the drink station for some ice cream.

Good morning my fellow Alaskan cruisers!​

​

We sail in 4 weeks!

YUMMM Perhaps I'll pack a few little cans of ginger ale. A Boston Cooler is delish!

It's fun talking about our favorite treats while on board. My boys are already stategizing about how to get their "All Hands on Deck" fruit and cheese platter.

What are others looking forward to indulging in?

Chocolate souffle from Palo dinner and Stollen bread with cream from Palo brunch. Yum!

Can't wait! Don't forget the Konk Koolers on CC - oops, forgot we won't be stopping there this time!

Well I'm not a drinker but DH likes the virgin ones. If you like the taste of a CC he suggests the new V8 Smoothie (Colado flavor). He says it comes real close to a Konk Kooler.

Might have to give that a try!

18-21 hours of daylight, do you think the curtains will be enough? Should I pack a sleep mask?

Last time we were in Alaska, the curtains were plenty, but that was also a different cruise line. I would expect the curtains here would be fine also.

Just making sure that I was not missing something that I should pack. We stayed at a hotel recently and the curtains had 1 spot that would not close completely so I woke up before I was really ready to. LOL!

My treat is Mickey Ears. I remember going to my local grocer (in a town of 350 having anything was a miracle!) and buying Mickey Ears so it is such a nostalgia thing for me.

Oh, I second this! My favorite dessert from the dining rooms for sure.

 

[WDWLVR]

Good morning everyone! I have a hint for you creme brulee lovers that you might not have known.

Since Parrot Cay and Tritons share the same galley if you are in Parrot Cay on the regular rotation dinner night you can ask your servers nicely for creme brulee and they will more than likely be happy to get it for you. That's because the night Parrot Cay is on regular rotation so is Triton's That way if you love creme brulee you can have it two nights of your cruise. We've done this on a number of our cruises. Just remember to ask nicely.
