Need you ask DK...Just show me the way to the casino.

When accompanied by wife and daughter we generally go to the buffet followed by a stroll to find our bearings.

I always use the Prom Deck unless it's bad weather, use the golf nets, and also the tennis court.

I also have a good mooch in the jewellers. I think last time out I mooched too much, and the chap on duty in there headed straight for me (there were quite a few people in there at the time) and asked if I had seen anything I fancied. I had seen something, but knew the price would be silly, so to extricate myself from having to be shown a piece of over priced jewellery I replied 'Yes, but he's still got his trousers on!' :oops: :lol:

Now, I don't know where that came from, but it caused a good giggle!

Finally, I always have one afternoon tea.

Em :relaxed:

The first thing we do is dump the hand luggage then it's time for the now traditional AOTH lunch of curry and Stella. Then Mrs AOTH heads off to the MDR to check out where our table is whilst I start to unpack.

We are creatures of habit.

I don't think there is anything which I always do other than unpack although I must admit at Xmas I like to get my Xmas tree/decs up asap so it feels as if the holiday has really started :D :D

Like Em we always have one afternoon tea but as our next cruise is 17 days we might up this to 3 or 4.

Never taken tea at the Ritz but would imagine "afternoon cruise teas" is a step in the right direction.

If we've been on the Ship before, following Lunch we unpack (as much as we can) and then attend Muster.

Then the obligatory sailaway :clap:
