They had fried bread today!! Remembering that @exlondoner recommended it as part of a healthy diet I grabbed a piece. Raspberry Danish yesterday was so good I got it again although today it was on the gluten free section so not sure it will be as good.

Was going to skip breakfast and just grab lunch, but they don't open until noon so gonna run grab a light breakfast before they close at 11. Crew drills just wrapped up, not one single announcement from it made it into my room.

+3.4 that's two days but still ouch

Yes and it was very tasty. Glad to see their ice cream is still really really good. Every celebrity cruise I've taken has had an Abba party, sometimes in the Sky lounge and sometimes in the Grand Foyer. I don't dance either unless I've had way too much to drink which thankfully hasn't occurred by 10pm when these events are held. But they are a lot of fun to watch amd sing along to even without dancing along.

Good morning everyone. I slept much better last night. The ac works great and turns the room into a wonderful ice box for a great night's sleep. They have also put a mattress topper on (automatically) likely due to the firmness of the bed but it has the added benefit of keeping the two twins together if I lay in the middle. It's wonderful.

People watching is great on a Carnival cruise in the night club watching a twenty something get down to whatever Cardi B is rapping about. But it's even better watching a 50 or 60 something enjoying the music of their own youth. Abba party is another favorite of mine and is a great chance to see an older crowd but young at heart letting loose. Back in the room, got the TV on but don't think I will last long before I turn in for the evening. Next up, one of my favorites even after many visits, Cozumel.

Ymca 🎶

One more... Waterloo 🎶

We got breakage but the show goes on. Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A man after midnight) 🎶

Made a mad dash to the room to grab my last drink. Theater had just let out so had to huff it up six decks of stairs. Happy my seat didn't get poached. Take a chance on me 🎶

Wish I could run to the room to replenish the bar it seems to be empty. One more time 🎶

Starting next.

Settled into the grand foyer for tonight's activities. Didn't get my same spot but found a comfy seat nearby.

I'm on a mint ice cream kick lately and that was very good. The cake was Devine. So fudgey with a nice smattering of Carmel. So good. The piece was small, but honestly I've left quite full and satisfied. Dinner was a home run tonight for sure. Service was quick too! As a solo dinner I always appreciate when they can get me in amd out quickly. Great experience tonight.

Chocolate cake and after eight ice cream 850.

That was another winner. Very nice flavor, a little bit of Cajun seasoning I wasn't expecting but I enjoyed it. I would have liked a bigger portion but it was very tasty. Dessert menu. There is also a chocolate cake not shown on the app but available on the paper app.

I didn't have my salad today so I was going to get one at dinner but ceaser salad is too calorie heavy and the other option had blue cheese. So I just skipped starters. I was asked if he could bring both entrées and I said yes but he didn't, so I am still unsure if there is a policy of one at a time or not. The duck was AMAZING. Very nice flavor and delicious sides with a sauce that enhanced the flavor greatly. Very happy this dish was as good as I remember. Shrimp scampi 839

Seared duck 828 No starters for me tonight.

No pager needed for dinner tonight but it did take a minute to find me a table and the line formed behind me. They will probably be getting pagers. Tonight's menu.

Stuart is done, and she left me a rose.

This looks interesting but the venue is nothing but about 20 chairs set up in the middle of the walkway. Very odd place to host an event.

Exercise achieved. Was going to get changed for dinner but Stuart was cleaning the room so I'm going to give her some time. I'm not really hungry yet. At the ensemble lounge listening to some tunes, although his set his almost up. Drive 🎶

The mobile bar is well stocked and now I'm off to the gym before I put it off any longer amd don't get to it.

By the time I made it they had closed all but a couple sections. I'll probably not get there early enough to see the full thing. Probably for the best but I sure do love that fried bread. That chocolate tart was amazing! I had to summon up the willpower to not go back for more.

Collecting my drinks. Took a break for some dessert and hydration. Got my internet credit issue resolved. Well not yet but it's in the process. I am supposed to get a discount so that's a nice savings I'm glad I can get.
