  1. In five different sailings now on Virgin Voyages, I can tell you that there's a point or two prior to sailing when the app "goes wonky", but getting even closer, and once on board, everything just works itself out...
  2. They could easily make the turn down the channel by pulling further away from the pier... I believe Virgin does "the spin" so everyone can get a view of the Miami skyline no matter where they're situated on the ship... More for show than anything...
  3. I'm loving some of that painting on the front of that bar... Reminds me of Jackson Pollock...
  4. So, are the Alchemists on Spirit just not very capable, or are you just a "dirty martini" guy now?
  5. Greg's gone from Batman to James Bond with all of these martinis...
  6. That's why I don't like them in my room, ever... Never know what they're messing with, and more importantly, what's on their hands / gloves when they're touching it...
  7. Apparently the entire city of Orlando is a giant amusement park... I haven't been to Disney World since 1976, so it's changed a lot since then. Jeez, I'm old...
  8. Only problem is that Greg keeps his cruises "top secret" nowadays, so unless you're clairvoyant you'd never know what ship and when...
  9. I suppose that they consider the spa inside a higher category than an ocean view... I was booked in a regular inside on deck 10 recently, and they sent me offers to "upgrade" to an ocean view, but in my mind that was a "downgrade" to me, due to the deck 1 location... If I were you I'd just be happy with the spa inside unless you can score a balcony for a decent price.
  10. It's awesome to re-live the entire thing all over again, now that I'm home and deep back into reality over at the 'ol salt mine...
  11. I would really like to be able to make a living writing, but it's a tough business to make money in. I also dabble in painting, but also don't make anything doing that either. You've heard the term "starving artist" before I assume. Even if it could just be side income, I'd be satisfied, and not feel like I'm just spinning my wheels doing these things for nothing...
  12. Likely scenario is doing a "small live" and spending 90% of my time "on vacation" instead of typing and uploading pictures... I've been doing these things since 2017, and realized that I spent God knows how many thousands of dollars, then spent most of my time doing the "review"... This next one coming up on the Horizon in May is going to mostly be "just for me"...
  13. Now, if only you can get professor cruise to their dirty paws off of them...
  14. I've gotta figure out if I can get an effect like this on my android phone... Pretty awesome...
  15. I wonder how those things remain waterproof? Is it some kind of inflatable device that locks around your shoulders?
  16. Unfortunately the bacon they have at Pig and Anchor is limp and flimsy, not crispy...
  17. It's definitely Honolulu. Look at the buildings towards the left side and that long antenna sticking up in both pictures...
  18. Also, you can usually hear the coughing before you turn the corner and see the crowd...
  19. If you're still at the bar with big Nikola, tell him Sid James says hello... Not that all the other Alchemists aren't great, but he's next level...
  20. Nikola looks so strange out of his Alchemy uniform... I haven't seen any Alchemy pictures yet, so I guess you were nursing that wine last night...
