Waterluv Posted August 26, 2019 #51 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Hi Niksmom 😊 we are neighbors, I’m the decorated door. We are a little bummed out with the itinerary change but beats sailing into a storm. I just finished loosing at the roulette table so it’s back in the CLS for me. See you around the ship and great review so far. Happy safe sailing 🤗 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted August 26, 2019 #53 Share Posted August 26, 2019 (edited) Chris, I had that loading issue briefly yesterday on Safari. I also had a shirt period of time to where it would reload photos from my prior post. Seems OK today. Please say say hi to Dexter for us. He would get a kick out of that. Also, eat a patti for me in Jamaica. Enjoy you sea day, as we take in our Perfect Day. Edited August 26, 2019 by A&L_Ont 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #56 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Great review, and gorgeous cabin! Can’t wait to hear more! We get on the Allure Sunday, assuming it is not postponed due to the hurricane. I had a question on the Diamond Lounge flyer. It sounds like the Happy hour will not be in the diamond lounge at all...it will only in Blaze? Is that correct? The Allure diamond lounge is my favorite, and was hoping for one last happy hour hoo-rah in it before dry dock. I’m wondering if this is your cruise specific due to the number of diamond, d plus and pinnacle on your particular cruise., or if it is what we can expect next week, as well..?That’s what it looks like. [emoji853] Generally don’t visit the D/D+ lounges on oasis class ships because if the interior locations, Allure bring the exception. I’ll try and stop by and inquire this weekSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #57 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Interesting observation at the G muster stations. Both Deck 7 aquatheatre cabins had people sitting on the balcony’s during muster. But none of the other AQ’s were occupied?Muster was ridiculously painful yesterday. In addition to it being hotter than Hades, the big screens on either side of the aqua theatre are being replaced, so no video-they instructed guests to watch the video in their stateroom and played the audio only on the silly “spy” video. Of course no one was listening, and pretty confident no one will watch in their cabins, so I can only hope there are a bunch of repeat cruisers on this sailing, or in the event of an actual emergency it would likely be chaos in the G’sThinking I will actually note this in my guest survey. They should have just verbally spoken to the correct procedures, like back in the good old days when we lined up outside with our life jackets on [emoji24] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #58 Share Posted August 26, 2019 After muster, and sweating off every calorie I consumed in water weight yesterday, it was back to my happy place!

Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #59 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Followed by a stop in the suite lounge, for a quick bite and glass of wine. Walked out with my plate which I later realized was against the rules. [emoji2372] MenuSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #60 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Dinner last night at Sabor.... kind of sad these are being phased out. The bacon wrapped jalapeño chicken bites are outstanding. Frankly, wasn’t particularly impressed with Playmakers on symphony. Pretty standard bar foodNot pictured is the Cafe Con Leshe dessert, which was also outstanding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #61 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Also of note, or maybe not if this is business as usual on Allure....If you purchased the Key on Symphony, lunch was in Chops on Deck 8. Recall seeing a very long line on boarding day there. When we were in the boarding area on day 1, they announced the Key’s would be having a “Chops” lunch served in the MDR. Since we are D+, we would never purchase the key, but this carry on bag drop off benefit would be great, particularly because boarding happens so early Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Loco Fresh is ok, but I’d rather have a sit down restaurant than a buffet-style. Obviously they did not ask my opinion. We will have one more Sabor shot on Harmony next summer. mac_tlc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #66 Share Posted August 26, 2019 At 10 am this morning, there are a total of 9 people up here The wrap around area on 17 affords all kinds of viewsFrom this section....These views....Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare niksmom630 Posted August 26, 2019 Author #67 Share Posted August 26, 2019 There are 4 semi private nooks. As of this 10 am this morning, 3 of the 4 are occupied. Not bad for a sea dayThe problem with these spots is it’s a tad like being in a fish bowl, since your view is of the solarium people looking upSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji20] sad, because the slide really detracts from one of my favorite spots and ship views. The bartender up here told us they would be installing a hot tub up here as well during her renovation.
