maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #226 Share Posted December 22, 2013 While I was trying to work my magic on him, I had an altercation with a man taking pictures of his wife. As you can see, even the cat is giving the man the stink eye. Rather than upset the cat, I moved on (muttering under my breath). Hi Cutie, show me your paws. Good boy!

maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #233 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I'll have to look for a Colleen shell when I am there next year :D I would have gotten you one if I'd known you before I went. I 'm sure they had it. They might have been able to make a Wrona one for me, as well. I didn't know so many of us were suffering this way. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #234 Share Posted December 22, 2013 One last kitty before I leave, reminded me of my Ginger (RIP), Ummm, OK!! It doesn't look like it in this picture, but, the shutters are purple. I want to buy this house! OK, So, this is what the workers were letting drop. Could they have waited till the place was closed and the cats all herded back inside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #235 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Sorry for the glare, but, check out these glasses! My final stop. I had read it was the best in KW. My prey and my lunch. Oh yeah!! So good!! Back on the road again, my feet were on fire!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #236 Share Posted December 22, 2013 This review has been very cat friendly and I want to apologize to all the dog people out there. Guess who I ran into? Stewart the steward! Been there, done that. The problem with flying monkeys is you never know what they just flew out of. By this time, I was hot, tired, hungry and thirsty. Just a few more blocks to go and I would be home. Just shoot me! When I got back on the ship, there was only one thing to do - room service!

iheartbda Posted December 22, 2013 #237 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Maureen, don't know when I've enjoyed a review as much as I have yours. Matter of fact, I don't think I ever have......oh wait, forgot about Sailor Jack, and Radio always does a good one but you're still number one in my book. Can't wait to get to the Hemmingway House.....it's all about the CATS.:D Was wondering what else to do in Key West and the butterfly conservatory is now definitely on my list, thank you, thank you. Hope to hit the Kino sandal factory in KW. Cape Canaveral has me at a loss, I'm not into space although I've been called a space cadet.:p I will never find a shell with my name on it.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #238 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Caesar salad. Turkey and swiss cheese panini. It was so good! I thought it was the best food I have ever tasted. This is also when I finally opened up my smuggled Coke. I drank almost half the bottle! Some shots of KW Harbor. Well, there was only one other quintessentially KW activity to partake in. So, I went up on the deck to take pictures of the sunset. The band was playing as we sailed away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #239 Share Posted December 22, 2013 The clouds were very strange, they were very foreboding and then there was a small patch of blue with the clouds going in the opposite direction. The pilot boat came to pick up the pilot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #240 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Bye, Thank You! After the pilot left, it brightened up a bit. So, I went in a door I hadn't been in before and found myself in the kids' area. The kids' lounge- nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #241 Share Posted December 22, 2013 This thing blows the stuffing out for the Pets at Sea. The kids use the Claw to try to capture some serious bling. Henry's son was up in the kid's club. The show that night was the Divas of Motown. I mentioned them earlier in response to a poster's question. If you get a chance to see them, take it! They were great. Since I had room service earlier, I wasn't hungry, so, I went to the early show. I brought a glass of wine from my cabin to the show and was playing with taking pictures of it while waiting for the show to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #242 Share Posted December 22, 2013 The Palladium theater - the main show room. As you can see, the main floor is single seats. Each seat has a cup holder like this. They are nice except for one thing. They will not hold a glass of wine, the base is too large. So, if you sit here, you must hold your wine. Now, if you are a bigger person or you just like to spread out, or you have a glass of wine, the balcony has couches like this with little tables in addition to the cup holders.

KeywestK Posted December 22, 2013 #244 Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) Love all your pics from Key West. And yes, frozen chocolate covered Key Lime pie IS the best thing to eat there;) Next time you get to KW, if you go to Blue Heaven, you can have lunch with all the chickens and cats that roam the grounds there.

cruiseacecat Posted December 22, 2013 #245 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I cannot tell you how sorry I am that we did not meet on this cruise. Both of us being solos and cat lovers, how could we not have hit it off. Your review is one the most entertaining I have ever read on cruise critic. I believe you may have missed your calling. You are a terrific writer with a great sense of humor. Hope to run into you one day. I will make sure we meet next time. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted December 22, 2013 #246 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Another critter - he must have been on the Enchantment, because I never saw him again. He looks hotter than the little guy. I was on EN when you were on GR and yes, this service dog is from EN. Her name is Suzanne and she's 9 years old. Her owner was cruising with her parents. Suzanne alerts her owner to when a seizure is imminent. The whole family are really nice people. I've sailed with them before and hope to see them again sometime before they retire Suzanne in 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKeighley Posted December 22, 2013 #247 Share Posted December 22, 2013 After I woke up, I mean, after the news was over, I was a bit hungry. It was formal night, which I would not be participating in, so, I headed to the Park Cafe for a little pre-dinner. Is the Park Cafe free or a charge eatery. I am bran new to RCCL.

maureencruiser Posted December 22, 2013 Author #248 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Is the Park Cafe free or a charge eatery. I am bran new to RCCL. As we like to say, it is INCLUDED in your cruise fare, in other words, free to you once you are on the ship. It is a nice little venue for an alternative to MDR or WJ. On some ships, it closes at 6pm, but, on others, it is open for late night snacks. What ship are you sailing on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nat9511 Posted December 22, 2013 #249 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Hi Maureen, I loved your review and pictures. I'm glad you had a great time. Riding Amtrack sounded like a great way to get to Baltimore instead of driving. I am sailing on the new Royal Princess next month and am very excited about it. When is your next cruise?

Congrats on your next cruise - I haven't done Princess yet, but, am considering them for a birthday cruise to Alaska next September. Amtrak was a great alternative. I don't have anything planned yet, been too busy writing this review. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
