Here's what we did on our royal Caribbean cruise. Take a bottle of scope (or 4) dump it out. Rinse it. Fill it with vodka, add two drops of green and one drop of blue food coloring and voila, you have scope colored vodka. Get the soda package to use as a mixer and enjoy the savings.
We did the same thing...except all the vodka tasted like mint. Lots of options on Amazon to smuggle alcohol on cruises.
I used to be able to sneak a lot in. They used to return any alcohol they found to you at the end of the cruise. Funny how that now since the staff get to keep what they find that it is much harder to sneak much past them... And bad news, just confirmed Spicy will not be on this Bliss cruise. :-( Have fun!
I don't think cruises are for me However, I wouldn't mind hearing a bit about this Greek island Desire cruise in 2020 that @Stacia_and_John were talking about. All inclusive sounds good, and is a necessity for me, but why do I feel that cruise might be out of my budget and as much as 3 TTR trips :/
For reference, We paid about 3200 for the cruise that leaves Sunday. It is 7 days, 6 nights. That is includung alcohol package and all tips and gratuities. Throw in another 600 for air fare.
