Where is dinner tonight? Are you dressing up? What’s the show? Are Navigators only on an app these days?

Early or late dining?

That makes me sad. I really love to feel things in my hand (yeah yeah I know @OBNurseNH LOL)

We did have a real menu in Palo.

Definitely cuts down on waste not having the Navigator out.

Im sure. I just like real paper. I only read printed books, my day calendar is still print, I have a printed meetings notebook. I like tactile things better than digital for reading/writing material (as I type on a forum!) :wink:

I agree. And I particularly do not want to stare at my phone at a dinner table. What about kids who don’t have phones?

I would absolutely require a paper menu. And I want to be able to put marks and such on my navigator. That’s sad.

So what did the first drink end up being?

I like to keep them as souvenirs, as well as mark them up.

@OBNurseNH , was there a DVC magnet on your door? Did you receive a call from DVC before the cruise? Was there a DVC welcome reception?

Oh my goodness, this was a huge bag of ridiculousness on our trip. At every sit down meal we were presented with a QR code! First of all, the kids don’t have a phone, secondly even if they did, their phones are the same as mine and don’t actually do the QR code thing unless we install an app.
We asked for a paper menu each time and it was like asking them to give you a private dance!! :roll_eyes:

Did you get reservations at Remy and Palo? Inquiring minds want to know many things.

If my sister sees this thread, she’s certainly booking. She didn’t miss going to WDW last month - cuz heat - but has continuously put off cruising.

Tho she’s talked about it for at least a decade.

Kind of the opposite of FOMO

You can “favorite” various activities on the navigator digitally. You then got a push notification when the time was approaching for that activity. I loved the digital one.

Had so much fun at sail away

A delicious dinner

And saw a lovely sunset

And now seated for the Golden Mickeys show!

Have so many words to add but show is about to start!

Wish you were hear. Truly.
