thewilfords Posted January 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Hi all- Prepping for our first time on Anthem- my kids loved the ice cream machines by the pools on Freedom. My kids are asking if there are ice cream machines on Anthem and if so, where are they? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slyster Posted January 11, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I believe it’s the indoor pool near the forward elevators on the starboard side. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewilfords Posted January 12, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Thank you! We watched several youtube videos about the boat and we didn't see them on any and they got a little worried! HA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billslowsky Posted January 12, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Did you see the creepy videos on why those ice cream machines are germ bombs? Basically, the average person will operate the machine with his right hand, holding the cone is his left. Then when they go to eat the cone, they transfer it back to their right hand, which is the one that was in contact with the germ colony that is used for the lever. Suggests that you operate using a napkin, don't touch the handle itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jptoz Posted January 12, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 12, 2018 There is a hand wash station on anthem right next to ice cream machine. And a crew member making sure people washed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csaeroach Posted January 12, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 12, 2018 We were just on the Anthem with our 4 year old Grandson who loves icecream. The machines are right under the steps going up NorthStar by the out door pool, same side of the ship as Johnny Rockets. There is a sliding door that covers the machines at night, so you can easily walk by before 11am opening time and not know they are there. We had to ask a staff member where they were and of course we were before 11am and still could not find them, as the door just looks like a wall until it’s opened. They are not great at meeting the 11am opening time. Usually 5-10 minutes late. Have a great cruise and enjoy the icecream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaylemh Posted January 12, 2018 #11 Share Posted January 12, 2018 There's also real ice cream in the Windjammer at night with a bunch of toppings to chose from. Sometimes, someone is also walking around in the WJ with a real ice cream at lunch time making cones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted January 13, 2018 #12 Share Posted January 13, 2018 the machine's hours of operations are too limited (never know when you want that midnight ice cream) and a couple of times we went there, one was empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted January 13, 2018 #13 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Real ice-cream in the dining room for dessert, too. The soft-serve is frozen yogurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
