LIVE! First time on the Allure of the Seas - May 7, 2017 Eastern Caribbean


Recommended Posts

You are pulling away from the pier.

 

 

 

See? This is what I'm talking about!

 

I'm sitting at the Park Cafe enjoying this

and there is no way I could have known we are sailing!

 

Everyone should have their own, personal, human GPS like I do [emoji6]

That critter isn't a real lobster anyway.:rolleyes:

 

 

 

Yah I know.... I grew up in Nova Scotia so I know a "real" lobster when I see one.... but still, lobster night is a kind of tradition onboard isn't it? [emoji849]

Well that's a surprise! I thought it was night 6 on the Eastern. But I guess it works out better for this itinerary since San Juan has an early all onboard today versus Labadee tomorrow.

 

 

 

Glad to see the great weather you've been having (aside from the humidity which was something like 77 according to the weather channel).

It's definitely tonight.

I just asked at Giovanni's if they could bring me a lobster since they are serving it in the MDR and apparently that's not a problem [emoji16]

 

The weather has really been perfect. Today was a touch too hot for me though... and with the pools being warm.... uuuugh lol!

I thought you were in the cold shower next to the too warm pool? You really get around.

Turning west just like I thought. I could be the navigator on this ship.:)

 

 

 

You are the honorary navigator of this ship. In fact that's what you are on every ship I'm on. I thank you for your service to the geographically challenged [emoji4]

So, we know there are "fake" crickets on Central Park at night... but this little guy sitting on the ledge outside Giovanni's is very much alive [emoji15]

I forgot to mention that we were the only ship in St. Maarten yesterday [emoji15] This is a first for me in all my cruises - SXM is typically the busiest port.

 

We were alone in SJ as well, and will be in Labadee tomorrow too. I could get used to this .....

Shut up [emoji30][emoji30] this is part of why I go on cruises - major phobia of these critters but means I can wander around happy as can be without having real panic attacks. My stomach is now churning [emoji22]

Ok, odd request but could you please keep me updated this week? [emoji51] my DH is not going to believe this!

Oh & I'm loving your review (critters aside)!

It is getting to be late in the Caribbean season. Many ships have started repositioning.

Glad you are enjoying the review [emoji106]

Oh, and you are traveling at 21 kts. on heading 289 (north west) and heading toward the coast of Hispaniola with a planned arrival time of 7:45 AM in Labadee, Haiti. Nearest cruise ship is the Carnival Sunshine sailing up the east coast of the Dominican Republic. No cruise ships even close to visible from Allure.
