Default Cruising and Cakes

ROFLMAO I'm at home after leaving the Port of Miami this morning, from a
weeks cruise on the RCCL Navigator! Had another GREAT time! Anyways, all
week long all I wanted was a simple piece of Cake... not a Mousse, or
cheesecake, but CAKE! Never could find it! Now I'm sitting here at my
computer laughing out loud as I eat one of those delicious Tortula Rum Cakes
realizing that there was Cake all around me!!! Just thought this was funny.

Next cruise, I know where to find my Cake now!

And when that's gone you can reorder online. Or make your own using the
Bacardi recipe.

That was my complaint on our last cruise. I just wanted a plain piece of
dessert, any kind. They try to get so fancy and ruin everything by putting
some sort of filling or topping or whatever they have handy in it.

That's why I was glad they always had a big basket of cookies in the Horizon
Court buffet on my last two Princess cruises.I would grab a couple of those
when I just wanted something sweet but not as rich or fancy as some of the
desserts.

Voyager ships have a shop off the inside promade which has cookies, mini
sandwiches, cakes and pies all day and night.

Do you have to pay for them? The word "shop" makes me think you do.

No. At least not the ones I had.

There might be pay stuff as well (chocolate covered strawberries come to
mind... but I didn't look that closely).

With the promenade, what they did is make all the places like small shops
off it. The wine place looks like a wine shop. Same with the pub. Same
with the T-shirt/logo shop. They even put street signs outside them so they
look like shops. On Navigator, many of them had a Victorian look. Like you
might find in a small street in an old timey type town like Chester in the
UK.

Lindsay, I don't know about Voyager ships, but on HAL, they have a tray of
great home made cookies next to the ice cream counter..That's where I'd find
Ed every time! I love the variety of ice creams on HAL--free with many
flavors and all day
during the hours that the buffet was open! They had a table of toppings,
chocolate, caramel, butterscotch, blueberries, strawberries, etc. plus a
couple of bottles of liquor standing there to top the ice cream, too!
