Hello everyone ! Rose I do not own a Tux, so I wear suits, Maureen wears a cocktail dress, and a gown. Your itenerary says on day 1 we are to meet on deck. I was under the impression that We were meeting at the Crown Lounge? Is that not correct. Also I stopped at the T- shirt store and I was told that the tank was finally in, He's going to fix the sample of the logo provided, the reds on the flags are too light, so He's going to correct that.

Hector I must have sent the the other copy I had. I changed it to read..........

Meet at Viking Crown Lounge Deck 14 after the lifeboat drill. The itinerary is subject to tweeks along the way of course.

Just wanted to be sure! Thanks Rose :thumbup:

Regarding suit and tux. Les has a tux but I don't know if he'll bring a suit too since we're going to Portofinos and the men have to wear a suit jacket. Regarding long or short dress.. it just depends what I fit into that week....LOL... I have a calf length cocktail dress, a long black one, a calf length sparkly gown I wore for my daughter's wedding and I have velvet pants and a sparkly long sleeve top. I will have to see what the weather will be like on the internet about a week before we sail to see which ones to pack. Of course, I'm all for buying something new if I find a great sale!!

Toni Howie didn't need a jacket in Chops when we were on the Freedom last month. Ddin't see anyone in a jacket and we went on the first night.

I'm off to go shopping to look for another dress.......

If he doesn't need a jacket, he definitely won't wear one. What did you wear to Chops? Is Portofino's about the same?

Good luck, shopping, Rose! Hope you find something you like at a price you like! I'm waiting to see what the weather is like. I have a couple long dresses I wear when it is a bit warmer... usually for the Caribbean, but if it's still mild, I may bring them. I'm just getting excited to be able to pack a suitcase soon!

Toni Howie wore a Golf shirt and dress pants. I wore pants and a blouse. Portofino and Chops are the same just different food and Chops cost more. I would think a dress shirt would be sufficient no matter what. The dress code on RCI has been pretty relaxed lately.

Didn't find anything shopping.......I have one gown and I think I'll wear a short dress for the 2nd formal. Still looking
