Cruising and Cakes

In my past experience, if you really want a piece of cake, just let it slip
that it's your "birthday" that night, and you'll likely get that cake, and a
bunch of singing waiters delivering it as well ;-)

Hi Don,

Great idea except on Carnival. There is now a charge for the "small"
& "large" cake. I do believe they will give you a complimentary
cupcake with a candle, though. Maybe one of our recent cruisers will
confirm this. You gotta' love some of these revenue enhancements.

Best regards,
Ray

Jean, that's different than what I experienced on HAL. The ice cream
bar was only open at 2:00 pm each day for maybe an hour or so. This
was on the Maasdam and the old Westerdam.

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.

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!

How is it on NCL? We'll have two birthdays to celebrate next year when we sail
to Alaska. Both are rites of passage; one into "the teenage years" and the
other into "preschool age". Gotta have cake for that!

June, you were short changed! ;-( It was open during buffet hours on both
the new Westerdam in May and the Statendam just this July!
