Like always having juice and coffee delivered anywhere from ten to thirty
five minutes early. Or like yesterday. We had our own arrangements to fly
home and therefore were among the last people to clear the ship. So we
asked for cabin delivery between 8 and 8:30 only to receive a knock on the
door at 6:40AM. By yesterday it had already become a joke between us as
to what time to request service so it would come when we were, first, awake,
and second, wearing pajamas.
Another "glitch" was cabin and dining room service. Our cabin steward
obviously had too many cabins to serve and thus ours was rarely made up
until after lunch, although he did a superb job, as did our waiter, Sang.
It has always been our experience that dining room waiters usually had from
12 - 14 people to serve, but Sang had 18. That meant that his assistant
spent most of his time running food from the kitchen, and little time for
the nuances like keeping a water glass filled.
Also, while TV is probably not important to many cruisers, and with the
knowledge that there are "dead spots" as one crosses the Atlantic which
interrupt service, there was no reason for us to lose ESPN on November 16th
and not get it back until we were in St. Maartin on the 26th. The same was
true for CNN which vanished for over a week.
Another minor annoyance was the crew's need to rearrange the chairs by the
Lido pool at 11PM and 5AM. They were directly above our carefully chosen
mid-ship location.
Moving right along, our TA sent us caviar and champagne as a "bon voyage"
gift and we found them both in the cabin when we boarded. I only mention
this as a reminder, but caviar is served with chopped eggs, parsley, and raw
ONION, and by 8PM, when we went to dinner, the cabin reeked in spite of the
fact that we wrapped the onion in the wrapping it came in and placed it in
the refrigerator.
There was our "special dinner" request. On the first night the table
captain stopped by and asked when we would like to have it, and when we
mentioned the possibility of the next night he advised us that there weren't
any onboard at the time but that they would try to get them over the next
days in our posts of call. After that we noticed that he avoided us.
Finally Danni found Michael, the 2nd Executive Chef at the Lido and asked
him, and he said that
the meat had been there all of the time, but that the kitchen didn't know
who they were for and our table captain never volunteered the information.
Danni told Michael how she makes them, except that somewhere in the
translation they forgot to blanch them and the first batch was inedible.
Give the kitchen an "E" for effort, they did get them right the second time.
And finally, the BIG glitch. We were told back in July that Westerdam was
offering dinner at The Pinnacle Grill on the first night at half price so we
booked and paid for dinner for two at 7:30. When we reached our cabin we
found a note from the restaurant manager asking us to contact him. When we
did we were told that because a bunch of passengers who had stayed aboard
from the previous lag had booked they were oversold and could not
accommodate us. His only offer of compensation for the inconvenience was
that we could use the $20 we paid four months earlier as a partial payment
for dinner any other night. That didn't seem right then and doesn't seem
right now, but because we wanted to dine at Pinnacle we gave in, but I am
still angry about it.
"Glitches" are minor annoyances, and they DO add up, but given that what I
have mentioned took place over a 17 day cruise, and I'll get to what we
liked about the cruise after I do my laundry since I cannot find the number
around here for room service. :)

US Airways promised that they would have a "dog walker" meet us at the
gateway in Madrid to "empty" Heidi, who last relieved herself in Philly two
hours before we were scheduled to leave. They also promised that they would
have a "people carrier" to assist us to our connecting flight.
US Airways failed both tests, miserably.
Our flight from Philly left an hour late, supposedly because there was an
unattended dog in the baggage area. No such animal existed, but our two
hour window in Madrid suddenly became one.
Nobody met us in Madrid and suddenly we were on our own to deal with
immigration, where the agent they chose to deal with us PAX who were NOT
from the EU did NOT speak English.
With less than an hour to find our connecting flight, and in the wrong
terminal, there was no way for us to make the connection. All Danni wanted
was for us to go home.
But God is good, and somehow we got to the correct terminal, and to the
correct flight which just happened to be delayed until we got there, and
thus the three of us, and our luggage, made it to the AC Diplomatic hotel,
HAL's choice for the pre-cruise stay.
I see Golddick hasn't changed a bit.....he can't be happy unless he's
bitching about something
How did you find out there was no such dog in the baggage area?
Was this reported as a hoax? I mean, after all, passengers don't really
have access to the area were baggage is stored. So, why would the
airline tell you there was a dog loose, if there wasn't? What do you
think the real reason was?

I have never had issues with immigration in any European country.
Why should the agent (you mean the immigration official, correct?)
speak English? Most people from outside of the EU do not speak English.

What would have happened had you missed the connection flight?
There are quite a few flights between Madrid and Barcelona, as well as
the high speed trains.
You seem to complain alot for normal occurences, like an hour delay on a
flight to Europe, or immigration inspectors that don't speak English.

The original reason that was given for the delay was that someone had
checked luggage through but was not on the flight and therefore the luggage
had to be found and removed. A few minutes later we were told that they
"luggage" was actually a kenneled dog, although that also appears to be
untrue.

We had no "issues" with immigration. We were just trying to find out how to
get to our connecting flight.

Given that we had three days to get to Barcelona I am sure that we would

The band was the Nick Ross Orchestra and they were very good. Although they

poolside.
Neither Danni nor I have ever claimed that Danni is deaf. I guess you must

He said she was not deaf. He did not say she was not hearing impaired.
Also hearing impaired means just that, impaired. It might not mean 100%

The question was never answered. A sympatric response was given here.
>>Not that I need to justify anything, but I am hearing impaired. Thus the

Is this a play on words?
hear·ing-im·paired (hīrng-m-pārd)
adj.
1.. Having a diminished or defective sense of hearing, but not deaf;
hard of hearing.
2.. Completely incapable of hearing; deaf.
n. (used with a pl. verb)
Persons who are deficient in hearing or are deaf. Used with the: The
hearing-impaired are provided with special services at school.
So as they say, You be the Judge.
Keeping that in mind, I would believe that the use of the mutt/dog would
only benefit the owner/owners with those *special services*. Sort of like
having one of those blue tags on your rear view mirror, so on a
rainy/snowy/cold day you can park up front kind of special service. Say that
three times fast.

Well, Fred, pucker up.
On your suggestion, I did a Google search of the father/daughter duo. All I
saw was a lot of rumor and innuendo; nothing of any substance. Most of the
posts were by one person who, it would appear, the Goldhabers sued. Since that
individual has ceased his attacks on them, one can assume that the Goldhabers
won.
Just for fun I did a background check on both of them. Two different addresses
and phone numbers and not even so much as a parking ticket for either of them.
As for your assertion that the daughter uses the dog for sympathy, sorry to
tell you that you are wrong there as well. Those programs don't just hand out
dogs to anyone. There are pretty stringent guidelines regarding who receives
one. Obviously, she met them.
I also did a Google search on you. You have attacked at least two of the TAs
who post here; getting somewhat personal on more than one occasion. You have
attacked several of the women who post here; getting quite nasty on more than
one occasion. You've made more than a few comments that could be considered
politically incorrect.
So, let's see. Who should I believe? A father and daughter who have nothing
to indicate even the slightest bit of impropriety? Or you, who have done
nothing but repeat unsubstantiated rumor?
Like I said, Fred, pucker up. Looks like you have quite a bit of butt kissing
to do.

It appears that Goldie is a liar. Imagine that. He's lied about his
daughter's incapacity or maybe they are both liars looking for some kind of
sympathy patch.
Or, better yet, has anyone ever seen a picture of both of them? Is there
any evidence that a Dick and Danni Goldhaber even exist?

It was easy, CC. Any of the people search websites will give you access. All
you need is the name and State and the ability to pay for it. Social Security
numbers are optional.
You don't need their SSN to find conviction information, I doubt if any
of the search companies could find their parking tickets, but I may be
wrong. Knowing their approximate age, address, etc, you can find their
birthdates and other things. Try www.intelius.com. For $8.95, I gave
them just a name and found family member names, ages, birthdates, phone
numbers, and a report on the average income/home value for their
neighborhood. I did this because some law firm in Texas sued me for
property taxes because I once used to live in a large area not too far
from the location of the property, as the person who actually bought the
property. However, the information they used in the suit didn't use the
middle name, just the initial. The last name had one missing character
than how my name is spelt. I called the attorney and had fix the suit.
However, I email the information I had to every partner in the firm, and
told them how poor their research was. I may send them a demand letter
for the $8.95. :)
