More on the Bingo

Well, lets talk about the important stuff. All the bingo will be played in the main show lounge aboard the Sapphire Princess. There will be 4 or 5 sessions played during the week for a total of 100 games. $80,000 plus a free cruise is up for grabs!
They play on paper (no machines) and everyone gets 9 cards per game..no more, no less. They only play during the days..and when the ship is NOT IN PORT. They supply the daubers. Good callers..using all the standard variations: 4 corners, letters of the alphabet, top hat, cover-all, etc.,etc.,etc.
And I was also glad to see that they add extra bingo sessions for buy-in, apart from the actual tournament. So there is alot of bingo being played. Its a very well run organization..these people have been doing it for 25 years.

Alaska Shore Excursions..this just in!

Well, you know that Princess will have a nice assortment of shore excursions...but did you know that you can get the same excursions for less money if you arrange them ahead of time through an outfit called Port Promotions. Click here for all the scoop!
