I received a very nice gift this morning From Klaus and the Hotel Director, Jovo. A bottle of my favorite.

I’m loving your review and all the photos you are providing!!

 

It will be interesting to see how people will deal with the OL Chair Hogs during the Alaska cruises.

[Jeffcel]

Thanks for all of this info. Super nice of you to do on your vacation!

[keeponcruising]

Nice gift! Those chairs in OL are too comfy. They shouldn't have made them that way. That just invites OL chair hogs.

Lunch was at Food Republic and fantastic once more. Bulgogoi Panu Puri, kimchee fried rice, and a Thai Rum Tonic for the win.

 

 

 

 

And I really appreciate the cushion on the chair which gives me some lower back support.

Hopefully Ncl handles chair hogging in the OL. That is just mind blowing!!

[rxlowry]

The chair hog photo is so gross. Beach towels..ugh. I hope that area stays as classy as it looks.

I agree. Next they’ll bring their pillows & blankets.

We're breaking out into 6 groups with different lists of bars.

 

 

Our first stop.

 

 

Looks like 6 of us on the run.

Skyline bar was next and they were expecting us.

 

 

They were awesome sports and I checked Doug's review and tattled on Ralph.

Next up at Observation Lounge and Paul made us all Painkillers.

 

 

Debbie is getting all the group shots and I'll snag them off of Facebook when she posts.

Alien Brain shot? Looks wellllll.... ah....hum......

[Defhermit]

maybe I'm a little too East Coast for cruising, but my first inclination upon learning about this 'leave a towel on it and its yours forever' phenomenon poolside and in lounges is to scoop up said towel/belongings, nicely place it on the floor next to the seat, and take the seat for myself. If someone complained to me about it I would argue that seats are for sitting, not storing belongings, you can tell by the name.

 

would I get in trouble for this sort of situation-handling on a cruise?

Say hi to Debbie for me!

 

That Alien Brain looks intriguing. Can you remember what was in it? And thanks again for this amazing thread.

We call those brain hemorrhages! So yummy, I got one of the bartenders to make these on the getaway, it took him 5 tries to get it right, he wanted it perfect, we couldn’t let them go to waste though!

Peach schnapps, blue curaçao, baileys and grenadine is what we use

That was so nice of you to help the bartender not waste anything. :p

 

I have tried to make something similar a few years ago. Epic failure.

[MHKBCrusin]

Are there dart boards in the Local? I read there aren't pool tables.

 

Thanks

That Alien Brain Shot is so cool! You can tell it takes a skilled bartender to make. Awesome!

 

How did it taste?

Agreed! Those chairs should have been designed for "observing" in, the passing scenery....not for lounging and/or napping in...that should be done in your cabin or balcony, if you have that...

 

Smaller chairs would also allow more passenger's to enjoy the spectacular view...

[CoffeeGoddess]

I have fallen behind on posting but not on drinking.

 

Sugarcane was next and there were 2 other groups still in there.

 

 

 

 

 

Then we decided to go for extra credit and headed up to the Waves bar for Glen to make us a shot. He did Cinnamon Toast shots and then we got another.
