Rare A&L_Ont Posted March 24, 2016 Author #751 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) We were back on for the ship around 11:45 getting prepped for that soon has become one of Owen's favourite things to do on the ship. All the crew that we've met on the ship have been great with Owen. He really has been spoiled, not to mention we have been too. Speaking of spoiled, we are dragging a little something home, for a fellow CCer. One set for us and one for them. I can't wait to be floating in our pool at home this summer, with this type of life ring holding our drink. Miami Vice anyone? A little gift awaited us from the casino in our cabin, but it wasn't in the form of money. Remember that Brinks truck from turnaround day? Well they certainly didn't leave us anything from it. This coupon was new to us, as we've never seen it before. After dinner at the Windjammer, we went to the kids casino. You can see Owen is whipping Lisa's butt. The ball is actually in the air for this picture and it's just about to about to drop into the hundred point ring. She's competitive, and he killed her. He loved it. If you are following along with periscope you know that I went to the 70s dance party, as well as to Jazz on Four. Earlier we did make a stop at the comedy club, while Owen joined the kids pirate club for the night at Adventure Oceans. Typical to form one comedian was better than the other. It is always amazing how many people do crazy things at the party for cheap trinkets. The good thing is since Lisa and Owen were in the cabin following on periscope I was left holding the camera. Therefore no one could see what I was up to to get my glow ring.[emoji6] Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Edited March 24, 2016 by A&L_Ont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted March 24, 2016 Author #752 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Two quick photos leftover from yesterday. We've concluded that the ship must have got a miss order of straws for their drinks. They're so long that you could practically poke your eye out. The good thing it's not a wavy sailing is there be lots of people with eyepatches on. I like this photo for two reasons. One, it shows the beautiful full moon that we've been sailing with the last few days. The second reason is in hot tub to the left filled with boiling humans. It is the base consumme for to tomorrow's human soup of the day. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5soonerfans Posted March 24, 2016 #753 Share Posted March 24, 2016 The Jamaica patty is oh so delicious. We discovered them when we took a culinary tour in Falmouth. We did find a whole in the wall place in Nassau to get them this past February and that will be the only reason we go into Nassau on our next cruise in July. I highly recommend them to anyone who has not tried one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcruiser8888 Posted March 24, 2016 #754 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Thanks for the periscopes and the reviews I'm cruising vicariously through you. If you get a chance we are in Grand suite 14330 which is being recategorized as an aqua theater suite (A4) I'm trying to get a look at the balcony after reading the reviews I'm a bit nervous about the cabin. I'm trying to decide if I should move up to a SL or stay where I'm at, any info you could provide would be helpful. Enjoy the remainder of your cruise as I will be enjoying you reporting on it .

Smooth Sailing Thanks for the kind words. It's great to have you following along. Deck 14 is the upper and smallest balcony. I'm at the ATS watching Goosebumps tonight so it was no problem getting a photo. I'm not sure if you are port or starboard however my photo is the port side. Personally I'd go SL as deck 17 is much quieter compared to the regular floors.

Laurba99 Posted March 25, 2016 #757 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Have you or anyone in your family done the zip line? Wondering how long the wait is and is it as scary as it looks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted March 25, 2016 #758 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Have you or anyone in your family done the zip line? Wondering how long the wait is and is it as scary as it looks? Not scary at all. My Dad did it when he was 88. He did it on a port day and had a 5-minute wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrlddst Posted March 25, 2016 #760 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Hey, thanks agian for letting us come along on your cruise.

CruisingKat71 Posted March 25, 2016 #761 Share Posted March 25, 2016 That is all part of my master plan. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app I plan on Also Scoping from the Allure on May-15-2016, however I will be a newbie Scoper, won't compare to your Scopes Andrew. But will do my best to let others see the great ship, and experience the Cruise as you have Done for Us. You do a Great Job Andrew!!! I actually did my first scope tonight, as a test run. I have never done it before, so to get the understanding, of how it works. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smooth Sailing Andrew....thanks for your great pics and blog. Not intending to hijack your great thread but have pictures to share about the cabin mentioned above. We were in 14730 on Oasis. Pics below. Balcony is on the small side and split. Part off bedroom, with 2 charis and a table, and part off living room with a view to Aquatheater if you're standing at the rail. Nice cabin but a long walk down the hall. Tub isn't easy to get in and out of and if you're taller you have to duck your head.

On Oasis they just expanded the location beside the Schooner bar. They literally had the construction hoarding up in the time frame that we did the B2B process of leaving the ship and getting back on. They were removing tile Sunday afternoon and other than smelling some heavy duty construction adhesive one day I haven't really heard much noise relating to this mini construction process.

Rare A&L_Ont Posted March 25, 2016 Author #766 Share Posted March 25, 2016 If you gamble was the casino smokey? On Liberty a year and half ago if was honestly hard to breathe when we walked through. Hoped they have a better ventilation system on Allure. Funny you ask as your question relates to part of what we did last night. We did spend a small amount of time at the casino, and the smoke to me was minimal but Lisa notices it more. Lisa put her $20 into the penny slot machine and we played max bet, after all we are highrollers. I didn't even get my room key into the machine, let alone my $20, and Lisa already had hit a jackpot. Once the machine counted off 4600 credits I decided not to even put my bill into it. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have never been to Playa Mia before but it looks great for Owen. We usually hit Nachi Cocum, but it looks a bit boring for the O man. Somewhere in there include eat and drink.
