grapau27 Posted October 8, 2018 #1076 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Part 2 of my summary Week 2 was a blast, well worth any inconveniences. But that is from the opinion of a C&A Pinnacle member. I understand not all had the same experience. We didn't do any of the normal shows, but I did do two of the water slides. Saw two better comedians, and lots of old friends. Met tons of new people, and drank excessively at very little expense. President's Cruise highlights Pizza was still good The VISA parties Martini Night Tiki Party Labadee Lounge Labadee Sail Away Fireworks Michael's Club Polynesian Pinnacle Party Having Mario seek me out as the CC person to report his true number of points Cheerfulness of the staff with so many needy people DSB concert Sail Away from SJ with Penny and Pete Massage with Bethanie Pinnacle Lunch with Helen Filet three times, lamb and lobster twice Steak Quesadilla in back of WJ Disappointments Michael Bolton concert WineGate drama Balloon drop (late and no MB) Missing all the Wild Boys concerts Crowds at muster, probably should have gone through casino from Studio B Billy Ocean, I probably left to early MDR menu SNAFU on day 3 Stories told to me of bad Pinnacle behavior The fact Laura was sick and missed a lot Green slide having shorter hours than blue and yellow That's all I can recall. I am in process of booking 50th birthday bash. Maybe Iggy Pop will get invited. #getoutthere Great review and well summarised.Pleased Laura is feeling better.

Front row seating should be easy to get. #lustforlife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biker19 Posted October 8, 2018 #1079 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Overall a well run ship, and will have to sail her some next year if I can find decent prices.

Rare mac_tlc Posted October 8, 2018 #1081 Share Posted October 8, 2018 When the disboards did an update like this they dropped their app and everyone has to use the website which now has a more ‘mobile friendly’ view....but I will really miss Tapatalk if it comes to that! It’sMuch easier for me me to read!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This was my first thought as well. Going to the web site is so “20th century”! I post very little on disboards now since the app disappeared. mac_tlc Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So who knows Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk With Allure going into dry dock in Europe in 2020, there would be 3 of the large ladies in Florida for summer 2020. I don’t think they would not have one in PC. As of April 2020, Harmony is in PC, Allure in PE, and Symphony + Oasis in POM. Suppose Harmony could go back to PE and Oasis comes back to PC when Allure heads east . Given the price premium that they are seeking for Harmony in PC vs. what Oasis is, they may keep it there. Time will tell, but it’s fun to speculate! mac_tlc P.S. We may be on the 1/6/19 Oasis with you! I’m holding a GS that appeared yesterday at a decent price.
