For those on the Sunday transfer, please read that thread, as I have edited the portion regarding giving Frank the money to pay the drivers.

Thanks. :)

Does anyone know if the coffee bar on Voyager serves breakfast sandwiches? i.e., an English muffin or croissant with egg/bacon/sausage/cheese etc.? (I have a feeling they only serve pastries?)

Just curious. We think the coffee bar could replace our morning room service perhaps. That would be great!

haven't been on Voyager since B2B Kristin, but it was only pastries back then, and they were all cold, nothing warm. I don't remember a microwave at the coffee bar to warm things, so the breakfast sandwiches would be hard. But yum....wonder if they are offered at the buffet. Never thought to ask about that.

Thanks, JoAnn - not a deal breaker, but one of those "would be nice" things. We are not the type to go to a sit-down breakfast - we like to grab something quick, or have a light room service breakfast.

We have now broken into the SIX weeks away region - something like 6.8 weeks away! It's great because we have a couple of small trips planned (Corpus Christi and La Jolla) to hold us until TUT. Not to mention that football season will be in full swing. So I think the time will FLY by! :ch:

Kristin, the coffee corner basically has a cold continental breakfast in the morning: pastries, juice, fruit, cold cereal,etc. They do have bagels and a toaster to toast them though. It's quick and easy so that's where I eat breakfast most every day on the Mariner or the Voyager.

oh right Peggy, forgot about the bagels and the toaster, there was that.

We too have a couple of small plans to tide us over until TUT, Sept 17 is the DUKE-BAMA game in Raliegh so the whole family including all the Grandkids will go for that weekend, then we will have youngest daughter's 3 kids for three days while they go to a Partner Retreat in DC. Then it will just be a few days until we fly out on the 29th.

We just got back (a couple weeks ago) from a cruise with grandaughters and we'll take one trip down to San Antonio to visit our eldest and his family, but other than that, I'm resting up for TUT -- need to save all the energy I can ;)

Oh good! I am sure I will go for the fruit and bagels. And hopefully the coffee "barista" can scare us up a cappucino.

Our H category keeps swinging back and forth from 665 and/or 670 available to GTY day by day. All cats seem to be changing. I'll just be happy to be on Voyager ANYwhere - I truly love this ship.

JoAnn, Ngaire switched us to an H guarantee when it became available - we figured we couldn't do much "worse" than 665. ;)
