OK, so it is now moving into the 40+ days out from departure.

Has anyone else started collecting $1 bills yet, or am I the only one who comes with a roll of them for tips for room service, etc?






.

I'm bringing lots because you will need them in Mexico too.

 

[MrsMork]

Well, when I used to go to them here in Ohio, even the warmest summer evenings were just comfortable with the windows down. We used to go to them a lot as a kid. They even had a playground under the big screen that kids could play on before the movie and in between features. It's now a strip mall.

I used to go to them as a teenager.

 

[lillygator]

we'll have quite a few ones...maybe $50-100? But John can easily change them out in his store.

¡Feliz cumpleaños Marilyn!

¡Happy Easter everybody!

Guess what?????? I´M PREGNANT!!!!!!!

Congrats!!! I hope you don't have to cancel but if you do it's for a good reason!

Another question, are tips included when you get drinks?

So, how many singles do you think would be good for a cruise of this duration?




.

Yes they do add the tip to the slip you sign and of course they leave you a line to add an additional tip if you feel inclined.

As far as how many singles you will need depends on how often you use room service, ect.. On our 15 day cruise my guess would be $50 to
$75. That way you would have extra for Room Steward and Server and/or Asst. Server if you feel that they have earned it.

don't forget (I always do) that on alcohol purchases they automatically include a 15% tip.

I woke up very early today (6am) and was very, very sick. Throwing up and....well, details are not needed. This went on until about 10:30. I have slept off and on and have managed to keep a cup of tea and a piece of dry toast down this afternoon. Even V and Deb's dinners don't sound good. I must be sick. Just up now for a few minutesk but I am dizzy and heading back to lie down again. Happy birthday to Marilyn and Cork.

I think we will just hold off and keep him in the crib. He has made no effort to get out at all, and no reason to rush it if we don't have to.

All three of my kids stayed in a crib till they were over 4 years old...then I would set the crib up in my room and some mornings I would wake up and find all three kids in one crib!!

My kids all loved their crib!! Noone ever tried to crawl out.

Forgot about Mexico... Taxies, shopping and tour tips. Better double that $ amount....

Oh, Angie, take time and let it work it's way out of the body, doesn't sound like it is something you can rush along.

Angie - that doesn't sound good at all....hope you feel better soon!

 

[lillygator]

how much do you usually tip for room service?

I am just waiting to see how morning sickness hits me, because if it is bad, we will have to leave ship, hopefully it will be just like my other pregnancy where I felt great all the time.

In case we don´t make it, since we might cancel at the last minute, we will still be paying for our part of the hummerzine and the fish extender team, so count us in for both, please.

Julie, what wonderful news. Contratulations!
