On a cruise ship, you can choose any option that is provided for during the trip, if you have some kind of celebration during the cruise: your birthday, your loved ones, anniversaries, anniversaries, and so on.
For this purpose, after paying for the cruise, you can order something for a long time. Let's just say, dial options and pay for them gradually in your personal account.
For example, we found some time, looked at the website of the cruise company and decided to see what interesting things they offer you to see in Honduras. They sat down, read about all the tours, chose "swimming with stingrays" and - paid.
Same with anniversaries and anniversaries.
We went to the additional options section. We looked at what is offered for the anniversary, chose what you want and - paid.
We have a wedding anniversary at the end of September every year.
Here we, as far as possible, try to leave before September 20, and after October 10-15 we will return.
Therefore, most often, we spend our wedding anniversary in the last days of September outside the home.
By the way, when planning the cruise, we did not immediately remember our anniversary.
And when they remembered, they decided to arrange a small celebration for themselves.
Now I'll tell you what it was.
I will say in advance - it turned out, because it was cool. 💥🎈💖
A trifle, really, a trifle, but pleasant.
We went on the liner, waited in the large foyer of the settlement. Upon arrival at the hotel, and the liner is a hotel, everyone boarding the ship sits in the main lobby of the lobby and just waits for their cabin number to be announced.
The number of cabins is announced in series, depending on the deck, the location of your number, in front of the liner, behind, in the middle. You know your number because you choose it according to the scheme when buying a cruise.
Here our number was announced, we go up to our deck, go to our cabin, see our suitcases standing next to it, find an envelope with an electronic key to the cabin in the mailbox and go in.
Ta-dam!
The cabin turned out to be decorated with such a garland with inscriptions.
And on the table were modest gifts: a photo frame, a beach towel and a cake.
The cake was the most important thing, I then ate it all 7 days, keeping it in the refrigerator, because the food on the liner was plentiful from morning to evening, including all kinds of desserts, and there was no more room for a cake in my stomach. I tried to eat before going to bed - but I rarely succeeded, because for a week on a cruise - a solid gorge, I will not hesitate to write this word here.
And here is the cake.
It seems like a trifle, like a cardboard garland, an ordinary towel and a cardboard photo frame with the logo of the liner, but it brought the spirit of the holiday and the solemn moment of our departure, the understanding that we have 7 days ahead of us on our second cruise.
Therefore, if you have a birthday, anniversary, anniversary or something else, you can choose on the cruise company's website any option available there for decorations and gifts, including congratulations at dinner by blowing out a candle on a cake (we saw such congratulations from our neighbors on the 3rd day of our trip at our table). They had their first wedding anniversary.
It was also nice and everyone applauded.
