Thanks for the posts Pete! I was also on this ship. First time on a cruise. There were highlights and lowlights--had a bout of food poisoning (from the buffet) the Costa Maya night--but for the price this was a decent vacation.
Just a few notes going off of some things you mentioned:
It seemed like the best time to hit the gym was around 8:30 or 9:00 PM. The crowds were pretty much gone by that point.
I got a laugh out of your hockey puck hash brown thing. They were my favorite part of the breakfasts there!
I have more "insulation" than you, so to speak, and found the outside temps largely quite nice except around NYC. I do agree that it's too bad Ocean Cay was so windy.
Re: the mussels, one of my MDR pals mentioned that it got so bad that night that security was dispatched to prevent a brawl. Over mussels!
