@FromSea2ShiningSea Loving your great sunset/sunrise pictures. Beautiful!

@HBE4 I just just read your previous post....was reading backwards today!😆and kind of said a combined "safe journey" to you and to Mark. But you do deserve a separate bon voyage wish! So here goes...... Have a wonderful wonderful cruise and a very safe journey. Maybe post a picture or two of anything if you feel comfortable posting. I know what all goes on before a cruise! The packing of "will I need this, will I need that and what if I need those"! Clothes are one thing but all those silly knick knacks that you only need when you do not take them🙄!!!!!!

Safe journey to you and also to HBE. I believe his cruise is also on Friday. I am looking forward to your pictures. Is it the 4 day sailing?

Sorry to read about that. Hopefully your new doctor will take care of you just as good as the previous one did. I hope you are doing good and are getting ready for your cruise.

@lenquixote66 Wishing you good luck!

@dbancroft Have a great cruise! Enjoy!

@sea2shiningsea Helen, I have been enjoying your wonderful pictures a lot every time! Thank you for taking us along. I would never have gone to Japan or Norway otherwise 😉😁 I just wanted to say that without quoting them again and again and jamming up the thread. Where is your next cruise?

@dani negreanu Very cute dragonflies. We have a very pretty blue ones too and I love watching them. Peace and hugs to you.

We purchased a Future Cruise booking via the Book Later Form last Thursday on board the Reflection. Above where you had to sign, the rules are stated very clearly. After filling in your names, etc, it states: "By signing below, I acknowledge and authorize: .Celebrity Cruises to create a Book Later reservation with the above specified guests and charge the credit card on file. (Or you give them another card you want to use, which we did) . To be eligible for On Board Promotion of up to $500 obc, I have 6 MONTHS to pick ship and sailing date." ( with 6 MONTHS bolded and capitalized ). . After 6 months, I will no longer be able to take advantage of the Onboard offer. . If I do not pick a ship and sail date within 12 months of submitting this form, my "Book Later" will expire and I will lose my deposit. . Unlimited name changes on your new booking are allowed up until you pick your ship and sailing date, after which one name must remain the same." Also, after the you fill in your name, email, etc, there is a line in very fine print, that says "By default, Future Cruise bookings are assigned to the same travel professional as your current record. If you prefer other wise, check here......". Stating this because I have read a few posters saying that they did not know that they had to stick with the same agent. I believe that the Future Cruise person should point out all this while you are at their desk. But many people just fill out the Book Later form and drop it in, so just be aware of these things before you drop off that form. As someone mentioned, UK bookings and US bookings may have have different rules. What I posted above was for US bookings.

Do you recall if the Cuban restaurant is still there in that strip mall? We have walked there from the Blue Lagoon Homewood Suites and enjoyed it a lot. We have never stayed at that Hampton Inn. How did you like it? Would you recommend?

Have a wonderful cruise Beth! and Captain Kate is an added bonus.😁 The kitty Merida is such a cutie. Looking forward to your cruise reports. Bon Voyage!

I don't know which Samsung ones I have. 🙃. Tried the ear tips, but all are too big and do not fit.

Looking for headphones or ear buds for smaller ears. Noise cancelling. Any suggestions? Currently have SONY headphones but one side is dead. Have Samsung earbuds that keep falling out since my ears are small. No apple. Have Samsung phone.

Good short cruise. Not cribbing about luggage tags arrival. Happy to go home tomorrow! Life goes on.

@helen haywood You had asked about Bimini. We ride the free trolley to its first stop, the Bimini Beach. Then to its second stop, the Casino to cool off in the ac and use bathrooms at the Hilton. Then strolled to Fisherman Village which was as uninteresting as ever. Then hopped on to the trolley and back on the ship. A two hour free excursion. I am extremely tempted to swim at Paradise Beach right down the pier. The waters are the blue est aqua and give Curacao waters a very tough competition....but Paradise Beach is also called Toilet Beach.....go figure, so reluctant to dip there. I didn't get off at Coco Cay since we have been there many many times. Enjoyed a peaceful solarium instead.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lenny. Best wishes to your daughter and Beuk.

Nice. I have no idea what they look like. 🥲 OK I am going out on deck 5 outside Al Bacio and jump up and down and act crazy. Maybe they will see me and wave 🤣 lol

We went to the Pirates Museum and Queen's Staircase. Visited the Roman Catholic church wandered around and are back on the ship. I asked at least three men if they were Ken. No luck. Utopia is a loooooooooooong ship. You may need Uber to travel to the aft from the front. Note: I said "travel", not go to or walk to. Allure and Carnival Glory are also in Port.

Royal Caribbean's new beach????

Utopia is our neighbor on one side.

Sorry I missed this. Scissors in checked luggage.

BOOK IT!!!!!!! My favorite S class ship. Apart from pool deck noise I cannot think of anything else. If the difference bw a Gty and non is $200, I would go with a known numbered cabin.

I love that puppy. I think the Nana is naughty not Puppy.😁

I am going with that thought.

There is a sticker that says not to lay it flat. Does not say anywhere not to recline.
