I have always liked this little house right across from where the ship is docked but it looks like it didn't do very well in the last big storm.

 

 

[Trainman-2]

This looks like a local guy towing his rental boats somewhere.

 

 

[Trainman-2]

There are two kinds of deck chairs on deck 16.

 

[Trainman-2]

This home owner seems to have "marked his territory" nicely.

It's a paid smart phone app but they do have a website I believe

I always enjoyed riding the elevator up to the top of the water tower that overlooks the City of Nassau. The last time we were here, a few years ago, the elevator was broken and they were trying to find parts. There is also a neat old fort next to the water tower. And to the left of the water tower is the "queens Staircase" which was cut through the rock from the city below up to the water tower.

Looks like you are having a wonderful time! Dinner at Chops did not impress. I hope they improve.

Love your Rollators. Did Medicare pay for them?

Ally had the Tuna which she said was good.

 

The serving sizes for the vegetables were small.

 

8 asparagus spears to divide among 4 people

 

 

Jim,

We also observed the sides to share seemed a lot smaller this time on Navigator. Even the size of the red velvet cake slice shrunk, although that's probably a good thing--[emoji23]do you have any other specialty restaurants booked?

Tonight we had dinner with Ally & Lyric at Wonderland. Actually, Lyric picked Wonderland before the cruise as the place she wanted to go.

 

Wonderland was (forgive me) Wonderful!

 

I recommend it highly and can't say enough good things about the experience, The dinner took about 2 1/4 hours but we never felt we were waiting or delayed.

 

Wonderland consists of a series of small and unusual appetizers that are sometimes individual and sometimes shared. Some of them were to amazing for me to describe and both Judith and I had trouble hearing our server's explanations. There were a number of choices for the main courses which where served "family style" and we all shared them.

 

Best RCI Specialty Restaurant we have ever had!

 

 

I will post up a bunch of photos tomorrow!

Hi Jim, do you know what time is the earliest reservation at Wonderland?

 

Thank you for yet another amazing live review!

Last night we had a great time with Ally and Lyric at Chops!

 

Lyric was a bit bored, but well behaved, while the adults talked.

 

 

Judith order the Mushroom Soup which has been excellent for years.

 

 

I ordered the Onion Soup which tasted great but the quality of the overall offering has gone down. Very few onions, mostly broth, and almost no melted cheese on top.

 

 

I also ordered the Shrimp Cocktail which has gone way downhill. Only three shrimp which would be hard to classify as "medium."

 

 

Lyric had the Chicken with a Shrimp cocktail but didn't seem to really like it.

 

 

She LOVED the shrimp and chicken and raved at how tender the chicken was.

Jim,My DH is a Steak and potatoes type. No fish, nothing exotic. Would you recommend Wonderland for him?

 

 

Thanks

For the main courses they had an excellent Chicken with Mashed Potatoes and an excellent Pork "Thingie."

 

Remind your Hubby that Ben Franklin once said "Variety is the Spice of Life" and tell him to try some new things. I am confident that he will enjoy it!

Most likely a fiberglass replica

Wonderland

We started out with brush and a "blank canvas" as as we painted it with water, the menu appeared.

The silverware was unusual

[Trainman-2]

We had a series of interesting appetizers that were shared. Everything was good to excellent. There was nothing that we didn't like.

The deserts were spectacular!

 

There was a chocolate "thingie" that melted when our server poured some magic stuff on it.

Ally shot a short video with commentary by Lyric.

I am one of those who did not want to go to Wonderland. I really enjoyed the experience. I do recommend going with a group. We had 6 one trip and 5 on another. You will get more of a variety. Be sure to tell them your likes and dislikes. I have food allergies and they worked around them. There is beef on the menu - and with a larger group you will get all the entries.Not to give the experience away, but there is nothing on the menu that I would call exotic, just served in a different style.
