seadog67 Posted March 28, 2017 Author #226 Share Posted March 28, 2017 did you notice if pool hours are changed since lifeguards are always present now? and do they stand always in that spot in your pic or walk around. its good they are there now though. I believe the hours are 9 am to 6 pm. I am not sure if that is different than previous times. The guards do wander around keeping kids from jumping and rough-housing we noticed. Currently clouds moved in and the Anthem is swaying nicely. Internet is spotty maybe a storm in the area.

seadog67 Posted March 28, 2017 Author #227 Share Posted March 28, 2017 We will be on May 6 five day cruise to Bermuda. It looks like you might be on the same one :) Right on Alysia! Lets rock that boat May 6th!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadog67 Posted March 28, 2017 Author #228 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I'm loving this review!!! I went back to read your Live review of breakaway to Bermuda and I am loving it also just wish I could see videos. I think I heard someone mention on CC that they only stay viewable for 2 years[emoji21] Awesome! Also the issue with videos on past reports is tapatalk no longer hosts videos so all history is gone video wise from what I see. Now we have to upload to youtube then link. But that works ok as yt keeps them for a long time I think. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life is Good Cruising Posted March 28, 2017 #229 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Thanks Life is Good Cruising glad you are along with us! Looking forward to Bermuda with you! As to the photos, I do have a Photobucket account but find it is quicker to post directly through tapatalk, though I am sure the quality suffers, one less step in the process is helpful. Also, if anyone is going to post video and such from their phone and not have a laptop or such keep in mind your phone memory will fill up quick and require managing via deleting videos from your phone once they are posted to youtube or whatever service you will use. Just an fyi. I am using my ipad as a backup storage for photos. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Thank you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadog67 Posted March 28, 2017 Author #230 Share Posted March 28, 2017 After we last checked in, we were sitting in very nice sun and reading the latest edition of We then sauntered, not wandered but sauntered through the Solarium Afterwards the clouds moved in So we went to Johnny Rockets for lunch Sorry no food pics due to phone charging. Mrs S rated her Chicken Sandwich 3 out of 5 forks, ok but a bit dry. My #12 burger was 3.75 out of 5 forks. Good fresh burger, but nothing extraordinary. Fries were nice and fresh and crispy 4.5 out of 5 forks. Would go back for the fries :) We are now back in the room getting prepped for the All Access Tour ($99 pp if I recall) so we shall see if it is worth it. So get your closed toed shoes and long pants on and meet us at silk restaurant at 1:20pm! See you there :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering :) Looks like they computed the subtotal without your free Coke discount, then discounted the $1.50 for the total. The gratuity was computed on one Coke however. Makes my head hurt. What I noticed was that your total cost was less than other ships that have the $7pp (or is it $8?) flat fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably this is the answer. I will admit I prefer the other ships seat and waiter service on the other ships at their Johnny Rockets. Especially when they sing and dance to grease :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
