I’m going to order a small cappuccino later and see what happens. Sometimes when they do changes some of the employees get confused as to what the changes really are. I’m thinking there’s no way they would take macchiatos and cappuccino off, that would be ridiculous.

Great! I’m scheduled today at 11:15a. It should be fun. 🤩

Yesterday morning, when I got in line at the port for checkin, there was a young couple in front of me who were very excited to be going on their first cruise. The young lady mentioned how worried she was about sea sickness. I told her she’d be fine not to worry about it, she’d never even feel the ship moving. Well that was a lie! She’s been a rocking and rolling in this wind all night long and still is this morning. That girl is probably not saying nice things about me. 😆

Room service arrived right on time this morning…yum!

I did tell him the reason I had purchased 2 cards was I was planning to use one for my next sailing and he didn’t mention not being able to do that. 🤞

Many people on here complain about smokers out on their balcony…100% worse for me than a smoker out on their balcony are those who leave there balcony lights on… and there are MANY who do this. It always cracks me up the complaints on here about balcony smokers. Smoking lasts about 5 min, your lights are on ALL night long!!! You are by far worse than a smoker, yet you have the audacity to come on here and complain about smokers. These people are the number one people who come on here and complain about the smokers, I just know it. Both of my neighbors have their lights on. This infuriates me. I can’t even enjoy the moon and the stars due to the 2 **** bags beside me and they’ll be the first ones on “the book” and on here complaining about the 5 min smokers. 😡

For those who are not normally up at 1:30am: the only place open other than cafe promenade and the pizza joint is the casino.

Look at this little carrot cake cutie..

Back to the casino…I hit for quite a few hundred. I went to guest services and put it all on my account. I’m now up some for more gambling. 😁

Dinner tonight is Sorrentos…as we all know, taste is subjective. This is my 45th cruise. In all of my cruises RC has rated last in pizza. I haven’t gotten pizza on an RC cruise in years because their pizza is so bad. Nothing has changed, their pizza is still rock bottom. I sailed on MSC Magnifica last month for the first time, their pizza is off the charts. Sooooo good! Carnival is second to MSC. It’s killing me to eat this…

I’m not complaining about the bed. To be honest, all I need is ice daily. I actually prefer 2x per day. Other than that I really do not need my room cleaned. I bring my own cleaner wipes and make up my own bed.

I see my room attendant was here at some point (my bed wasn’t made up or anything) because these were put in my bathroom.

Forgot to mention…while strolling the promenade earlier I stopped at the cafe to get the 2 coffee cards I ordered. They only had me down as ordering 1 card (they’re cheaper if you purchase online prior to sailing, $31). So calls had to be made and what not but we got it settled. Anyways, he informed me the rules of the coffee card have changed. Used to be you could get refreshers and frapps with the card, they just took off 2 punches for those instead of the one punch. Not anymore. With the cards you can no longer get those at all, nor can you use them for macchiatos or cappuccinos. Well what the heck is the use in buying them then?????

I went to the casino after throwing on a sweater. The casino on this ship is large, lots of slots…which is where I prefer to throw all of money away! 😂 I’m down a bit. But hey, the week is still young! 😂 I’m going to head up on deck ( in my mind I just refer to it as the lido) and see what’s happening. The ice show is at 10:15 and I love a good ice show! I figure after the ice show I’ll see what kind of sandwiches they have at the cafe promenade…worst case, later, I’ll order room service since it’s 9:30p already. I’m a night time kinda girl so I’ll be up very late! But, just so I don’t miss out on the day time activities, I put a continental breakfast order on my door for 7:30am.

Funny, as I walked through the ship I felt like I was familiar with her…I suspect it’s because of other voyager class ships. Yes, she is an older vessel and shows a little age ( like myself) but she’s a beauty!
