So what I do to have the cruise compass on my phone. When you get in your cabin on the first day, there is a QR code on a card. Scan it, and it will open it in a browser window. Then I save it to files on my iPhone, and just add the day to the file name and save it. If you keep that browser tab open, all you need to do is refresh it each day to get the compass for that day. If you don’t have the QR code card, you can enter this while onboard. https://minio.rccl.com/compass/cruisecompass.pdf

And now, for the first time ever in a cruise report. If you ever wondered what the inside of the cabin door lock looks like, here it is. I stepped out of our cabin, and found the cover had fallen off. Hmmm, wonder if I could charge Royal for my repair to put the cover back on. Knowing them, they would probably say Daryl made it fall off. 🤣

One thing I discovered when I went to order some drinks at schooner bar, was that I was apparently with the wrong woman. I know, I didn’t have that many drinks. But when I pulled out Susan’s card, to order us some drinks, her name had changed to Elizabeth. Evidently, they gave her back the wrong card when we were in the Crown lounge. So we headed off to guest services to get a new card. So now it is maybe good, but it doesn’t open our door. Looks like I will need to make another trip in the morning. I did have them make me a Union Jack Lava Flow at Schooner bar, and they did good with it. Glad I had the recipe with me, because they didn’t have a clue.

Tonight, we had the ice show, 1977. I thought the set and costumes were a little dark for some scenes. Liked the drone opening The Royal guards kept the theme at the beginning The skating was excellent I would be dead if I tried this wheel thing. The middle part was hard to follow, but we enjoyed the music at the end

We got one of the thatch roof umbrellas and a couple lounge chairs for $40. The water was warm after we got in, and the views were not bad. Since I saw pictures of snowmen back home, I made a sandman. It must have been popular, because several people stopped to take pictures. The rest of the afternoon involved relaxation.

Decided to walk to Eagle Beach for the afternoon. We found a nice little beach bar along the way for some food and drink. I can confirm that the beach bar loaded rum was very good We had a flatbread veggie pizza And the views were nice.

Aruba today. We didn’t have any excursions booked, so one of the first things we did was seek out an optical place to repair Susan’s glasses. She had lost the nose pad to one side, and we found the ship doesn’t sell any repair kits. So we found this place, just off the ship. They were great. $4 and she was good as new.

Daryl, quick, look at the sunrise. We are almost to Aruba. Daryl says he is glad he is not home. And if the elf would get out of the fridge, it might not be as cold.

Yesterday, we ventured to Windjammer for breakfast. After gaining a pound on the first cruise day, I weighed in and found I actually lost a pound since boarding, so time to remedy that. I think the flow in Jammer is better than the earlier O Class ships. Got there around 9am, and it wasn’t crowded, and plenty of empty tables. They did have a nice gingerbread house display outside, near the entrance.

Yesterday, we walked by the beach pool in the morning, and this was the scene. Then, a couple hours later, they had kicked everyone out, roped off the area, and started draining the pool. Hmm, just wondering if there was an incident?
