    Just rolls in the southern states. And here in Alabama we have a locally famous restaurant, Lamberts, known as the "home of the throwed rolls". These folks literally throw the fresh hot rolls to you. From across the dang restaurant. Me and my oldest son wait til they're a really long ways away and hold our hands up just to see how good the workers aim is. It's a riot.

    I booked a guaranteed inside on Princess for 11 days to the Panama Canal for $509 (it was “last minute” about 6 weeks in advance). We received our cabin assignment around 1 week before the cruise in the morning. That evening around 5:00 p.m. I received an email from Princess asking if I wanted to upgrade to a balcony for $100 which we of course jumped on. So, including taxes and fees we sailed to the Panama Canal for around $900 each.

    In regards to the nightlight tip. I usually turn on the TV to the channel with the camera view of the front of the ship. It's like having a window in the interior cabin so when the sun rises, the room slowly brightens. Nice since it's incredibly dark all the time in the room.

  • @carolinemk8
    @carolinemk8 5 років тому +2

    Extra tip on number 10 at 7:05 - the reason you'd want to book excursions with your cruise is that the people in charge of those excursions are in contact with your boat, and if you fall behind schedule or close to the parting time, they can call the ship to make sure you don't miss the ship leaving port. Once our bus tour went an hour behind schedule because the bus was overheating, and because we booked our excursion through the cruise line we were able to contact the ship to keep it docked an extra hour. Excursions booked outside of your cruise line typically don't have contact with your ship and if you run overtime you may not make it back on the boat.

  • @ve2vfd
    @ve2vfd 6 років тому +41

    An alternative to bringing a light is to leave the toilet light on all the time. Most cruise ships have a huge gap below the bathroom door so leaving that light on is more than enough to navigate the cabin at night.

  • @wendysmith1009
    @wendysmith1009 5 років тому +3

    Love your info. Picking up on shore excursions, yes you are absolutely right booking excursions rather than thru cruise line can save you money, however just to let you know which has happened to me - if the cruise line needs to sail earlier than intended , if you are on a private excursion you would not necessarily know that. If you've booked thru your cruise line they would inform you accordingly and get you back to ship. I only knew my ship needed to move on only because my family member text me and the private excursion got us back in time. If we didn't know this potentially we we would be on our own. I have to say this is most likely very very rare but it has happened.
