Patti was feeling like dessert, so she rang for Vanessa, who showed up within minutes….. This was the banana something or other that Patti ordered. She really didn’t care for it….. To be continued…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 27, 2015 Author #480 Share Posted September 27, 2015 After Vanessa delivered Patti’s dessert and our bill, I made Vanessa sit and relax for a few minutes. She had taken really good care of us today, and she is now on our list of favorite cabana attendants. If you see her during your visit there, be sure to tell her that “big” Jeff said hello!! It was getting late, so it was time to head back to the ship. We are leaving our vacation home in Grand Turk behind….. The Grand Turk Flowrider….. The pool at Margaritaville is now empty…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 27, 2015 Author #482 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Once back on board, we dropped our things off in our cabins, and made our way out onto our “secret” deck to watch the last sail away of our cruise. Here’s a view of the beach, pool, and cabanas at Margaritaville….. Here’s a full view of all of Margaritaville….. I’m not seeing any pier runners today….. Here’s a view of the swimming area in front of Margaritaville…… While we were watching the water, a huge ray surfaced and swam by us….. To be continued…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 27, 2015 Author #485 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Looking aft, you could see how calm the seas were this evening….. Here are some views of tonight’s beautiful sunset….. We decided not to eat dinner in the MDR tonight. Patti and Ryan went up to the Lido Marketplace to eat, while I chose to head over to the Red Frog Pub and have some pub grub. I had the Grouper fingers (didn’t know they had fingers – lol), and the conch fritters, and both were excellent and filling. Afterwards, I went to watch a Dive in Movie (Hunger Games – Mockingjay Pt 1), at the Seaside Theater. Fresh popcorn and Thirsty Frog Red’s, perfect together!! Ryan met up with me there, and after the movie we went down to the casino for about three hours. Ryan won some money playing slots, and I wound up losing another $50. Hmmm, I’m beginning to see a pattern here! Patti popped in several times to see how we were doing, but didn’t play any. She spent the evening shopping, looking for our pictures, and catching up on our emails. Around midnight Patti and I decided to call it a night and head back to the cabin. Ryan went off to do what 18 year olds do. Good for him!! Anyway, here is tonight’s towel animal. We had a great day in Grand Turk!! Goodnight!! Coming up next: Our last day at sea.

mikel24m Posted September 29, 2015 #491 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Thanks for the great review !! One question for you by chance did you go into the casino in Grand Turk ? We have been to Grand Turk a few times and don't remember a casino.Is it near Jacks Shack ? If you did stop inside how was it? We leave in a couple of weeks and may try our luck :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrigley80 Posted September 29, 2015 #492 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Here are some more shots taken while I was in the water….. Here are a couple of underwater pictures. You can clearly see the drop off where the water gets deeper….. To be continued….. WOW!!!! Those last two photos are awesome. I had always wondered what the drop off was like. That would freak me out. But with the ship being so close to the shore you knew that there would be a drastic drop off. Thank you so much for sharing these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 29, 2015 Author #496 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Our final sea day aboard the beautiful Carnival Breeze….. We slept in until 8am today, and looking out our cabin window, we could see that it was a beautiful day, and the seas were very calm….. We decided that we would head to the Sea Day Brunch. Outside our cabin, we ran into our room stewards, I Nengah, and I Dewa….. When we got to the Blush Dining Room, there were only a few people ahead of us so we were seated quickly….. Here is the Sea Day Brunch menu….. To be continued….. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patti was planning on check out our pictures at Pixels, and then doing a little shopping. I was going to walk around the ship a little, so I grabbed the camera. Here is Piano Bar 88….. A couple of the Liquid Lounge….. Here are some from my favorite bar on the Breeze, the Red Frog Pub….. My buddy Regino….. To be continued…..
