I originally created this community on Reddit and have decided that I no longer want to be there. As such I am migrating my posts over and links may not work correctly or posts may look odd.

Please bear with me as I move this and other communities I have created over to Lemmy.

Thanks, MuttMutt

Thank you! Yes one of the first things I did was find a vlog of our specific ship so I kinda feel familiar with a lot of parts already. I do tend to be one of those "research everything in advance" type people so it was very helpful, as are your posts (which I'm reading through bit by bit).

So sorry to hear about your wife, I'm glad you've found something to bring back a bit of that happiness.

Well I am glad that helps. The first time I was on a ship was a little surreal for me. Liberty of the Seas was amazing to me and I now have a total of 21 nights on her. Even now there are little things that I don't remember but did do a ton of looking at deck maps and watching video's which helped me get around the ship even though I was often in a bit of a fog. I figure if it worked for me then it will be a good way for people to help themselves as well as I don't advocate spoon feeding people every little bit but do my best to teach them how to spoon feed themselves, LOL.

And thank you, losing my wife was even worse than losing a son at 9 days old. I will honestly say that I still feel the pain a lot of days and it is a struggle to get through but helping others when I can and getting out of the house to do things helps me a ton.
