Jamman, 

 

Do you have a photo of Surya? I had a guy of the same name on my dining team back in April. I kinda miss him...

 

 

Yes I do. He's the one on the left. :classic_cool:

Can't wait to read more, I've been on the 5day off Royal, way too short. We've been wanting to do a 7dayer for awhile now, and the Pride is the perfect ship for it.

 

You are right. You can't beat the two overnights! :classic_biggrin:

Hey Jeff, did they replace the seats in the upper levels of the Taj Mahal? They look new since my last cruise on Pride. Maybe they just cleaned them up. Thanks for the review. Hope all goes well with the hip.

 

Hey Bill. Thanks for the well wishes. Not sure if they replaced the seats or not. They did look good. :classic_cool:

I always have to get the roasted chicken on the first night.  It's so good!

It's always nice to see another Jamman review.  Looking forward to more!

It seems like I always get the sweet and sour shrimp. Always glad to have you along! :classic_biggrin:

YAY!!! Your back. I thought you said you were not going to do a review for this cruise? I am glad you did. I am currently working on mine for the Vista. We went last week!! Your reviews are helping me to make sure I write a good one. I know it will be no where as great as yours but I hope that it is satisfying.

The slot pull run by Chris and Vicky was set to begin at 11am. Patti wanted to stop at the room first before meeting us in the casino. She found today’s towel animal. Edwin preferred to make them during our morning service…..

On her way to the casino she stopped to take some pictures that she missed yesterday. This is the chapel…..

This is the Ivory Piano Bar…..

The slot pull was well attended with over forty people chipping in $20 for four spins. When everyone had spun, whatever money that was on the machine would be split equally. The slot machine used was a Wheel of Fortune machine…..

 

IMG_3083-XL.jpg

 

My turn to spin and I got the opportunity to spin the Wheel of Fortune. It paid $50…..

 

IMG_3085-XL.jpg

 

IMG_3086-XL.jpg

 

When all was said and done we all got $17 back on our $20 investment, but we all had a great time. Pat was given a bottle of champagne for having the highest individual spin. Way to go Pat!

 

Afterwards, Patti went off to take some more pictures, while I stayed in the casino and played blackjack. As she passed Bonsai Sushi she saw that they were having a sushi lovers lesson…..

Hi Jeff, Always enjoy your reviews, you do such a thorough job! Thanks for that.

 

Would you happen to have a picture or copy of that duty free liquor that was sold on one of your recent cruises? Just want to get an idea of the current prices and offerings.

 

Thanks again.
