Rare NorbertsNiece Posted September 28, 2014 Author #431 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Even the vessels that are there for others safety are not immune from being fascinated by this mega ship Pink feathers are flying contrary to ship's regulations.... More horn sounding and balloons are released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where on the starboard corridor is this print!!!! What level?? Thanks for posting!!!! Sea Ya Hey Sue, All the way forward on Deck 7 starboard side. When I've sailed previous ships I have walked all the corridors..... not done that this time.... they did offer an art talk during the cruise which I missed, the art is certainly impressive. Linda PS There are no RCL production shows..... so am guessing there was no welcome show (would need to check the Compass) and there's no farewell show tomorrow.... no Love & Marriage show..... no Quest.....

Rare NorbertsNiece Posted September 28, 2014 Author #442 Share Posted September 28, 2014 There's very little time left.... if there's something you want a pic of please let me know..... 24 hours from now should do it..... Here are today's pics..... Whilst on my walk one of the life rafts was being worked on You can't see much of Lennart..... he's in top gear all the time!! (safely though) We have a table near the window for lunch (same menu as the one I posted last cruise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NorbertsNiece Posted September 28, 2014 Author #443 Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Had to grin when I saw this on the TV.... the lettering is in Hebrew and says 'Pesach' (Passover)..... it's not the traditional design of a passover plate.... I'm getting pedantic.... Jasmine menu in the MDR tonight..... Formal..... I dress up.... had brought 3 outfits so had to wear it.... 3 savoury bites and I'm smiling.... asked for mashed potatoes with GF prime rib.... had a 'conversation' with the waiter about that. I'm done with the MDR. I know I said it before but this is the flagship of the fleet and each meal I've had in the MDR has involved a conversation about my diet. Not one member of staff has been bothered to get involved with me on a personal level..... first ship this has happened on recently....

PompeySailor Posted September 28, 2014 #444 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Someone a whilst recommended a similarly named restaurant out of town..... Looks like an apartment building at the end.... there's a mall right here.... I do more shopping.... El Mosquito, glad you were able to find it Loving all the photos Graham Enjoy what is left of your cruise Linda, thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 28, 2014 #445 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Thanks for a wonderful review. I just read all 23 pages and was daydreaming about sailing the Mediterranean. It is amazing to see how many people are there to see Oasis off. Can't wait for the last part. Many thanks, Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janeyzee Posted September 28, 2014 #446 Share Posted September 28, 2014 they let me wear my spectacles..... just as well really.... I had my eyes open (don't do white knuckle rides AT ALL). I was shaking so much when I got down..... something to tick off my bucket list.... Glad to hear they let you keep the specs on. I'm so nearsighted that if I take mine off, I won't see anything but my knees! Did you have to request to keep them on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly..... the crew member at the place where they kit you up gets you to sign the waiver and checks that you have no jewellery etc. He looked at me and said 'Are they sunglasses?' I said, 'No, they're prescription,' and that was that :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janeyzee Posted September 28, 2014 #448 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I have been doggedly stalking the Central Park area for days now.... no sign of gnomes..... I did, however, run into Bjorn!! If this will help you find them, it's a photo of the gnomes from 2012. Maybe look for this type of foliage and then peek inside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
