Susie51 Posted March 23, 2015 #1 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Embarkation was good. We took RCCL transportation from Bush IAH to Galveston. We had dinner in MDR. My sister and I had the prime rib and liked it. DD had pork chop and liked it. The Asian coconut sea food soup was delicious. We are enjoying our GS suite and perks. Breakfast and lunch are in Chops by the Windjammer. After breakfast we walked on the jogging track on deck 12. M & M is at 11:30 in the Cosmopolitan Lounge.

dodgersmom Posted March 23, 2015 #2 Share Posted March 23, 2015 What is the distance of the jogging track? I thought it was 5 laps to a mile but that may have changed when they added the big screen on the pool deck. 6 days and I will be there. Leave some Cabernet at the bars and cookies in CP for me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on last week and the sign stated 8 laps for a mile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susie51 Posted March 24, 2015 Author #7 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) Sorry I am unable to post pictures. We arrived the day before and stayed at the Hampton Inn. We took the hotel shuttle to IAH at 8:30 am signed in with RCCL. Then we were on the 10:00 am bus. We reached the pier at 11:30 am. We were on the ship in 20 minutes and had lunch. When we finished lunch, it was 1:00 pm and we were able to go to our rooms. 8 laps is a mile. There are lounge chairs right next to the track on both sides. There is a fast and a slow lane. Also there are people walking in the opposite direction to get to the other side of the ship. It is quite congested. M&M was today at 11:30 am in the Cosmopolitan Lounge on deck 14. People were more interested in filling out the game board card than meeting our roll call members and putting a face to the screen name . Oh our Norweigan cruise in Dec. we spent time getting to know each rather than filling out the the game card. We liked doing things together with some CCers through out the week. Tonight we went to the production show, Ballroom Fever. The seats were uncomfortable so my sister and I had to leave early. We were in the back on the aisle,so we didn't disturb others as we left My daughter enjoyed the whole show.

Susie51 Posted March 24, 2015 Author #15 Share Posted March 24, 2015 How was the lunch, last year we had a dinner with the officers The lunch was fantastic! We had samples from all of the specialty restaurants. A lady at our table has been on 93 Royal cruises. She said it was the best officers dinner/lunch she has been to. Our group of three enjoyed it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susie51 Posted March 25, 2015 Author #20 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Beautiful day in Roatan. Daughter did the dolphin encounter and snorkel which was excellent. I Stayed onboard and enjoyed the quietude of the ship. The Solarium pool has two sets of steps which makes it easy for the people with mobility issues to enter and exit. Tonight "Paddington" is showing on the big screen. 7:15 is the past pax party and 10:00 is the "Not so Newly Wed Game." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ummgood Posted March 26, 2015 #21 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Yes we are, a road trip and a cruise. We leave tomorrow, can't wait 😃 Have fun on your trip! Be careful using your cell phones after El Paso. You can roam onto Mexican towers and get large bills. I experienced this once and had a $2.50 charge for one minute. Thankfully it was a short call! We drive that drive a lot. We live in Austin but still have family in Cali (wine country) and friends in San Diego because I went to UCSD. We'll be making the trek again in December.

Susie51 Posted March 27, 2015 Author #25 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Day 6 We are docked next to Allure. Carnival Magic, a Princess ship, and a Norweigan ship are also in Cozumel. We had a down pour today around 11:30 am. Then it cleared up. As we sailed away another storm came in along with fog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
