Wonder when it will start showing up on EBay 

I've already checked  - nothing yet.  I guess folks are waiting till they get home.

Some gifts last year only went to Royal VISA card holders. I didn’t have the VISA Logo on my SeaPass card when I boarded but the Boss did. I got a sticker put on mine when it became apparent some events were open to only Royal VISA holders only. The Boss, she got some gifts in the room that I didn’t receive. One was the Fedora Hat. 

There was one Visa event this year. Forgot about that. 😊

As long a Royal’s VISA keeps sponsoring events onboard, it might be wise to get one. 

I'm going to go with the aforementioned Ebay option.  That plus Photoshop and I get the appearance of being there without purchasing the cruise.  Now if I can just figure how to hack the C&A points.

Back at Coco Cay today. Found our shady spot. Not as nice as the cabanas, but not bad.
 

 

Snack Shack right behind us. 

 

Swim up bar strategically located. 
 

 

And they have the new Coco Cay themed beer to try today.

Not to be a shill, but for me, that does sound like a Perfect Day

FYI, by contrast, I've been on two conference calls, have 3 more, am trying to review a contract, and finishing a technical specification.  Want to trade?  This is the one downfall in my ebay, photoshop, hack plan.  I'm still here.

We were just talking about returning to work on Monday. It’s been two wonderful weeks, but a little bit worried about what awaits us when we return. 😩

 

Gotta make the most of this last day.

Well, that does it. Now I’m going to have to buy me a super-cool aviator jacket.

For sure you do.  There are likely hundreds of emails in your inbox, plus the 3 things you had been successfully dodging all year, that now are back on your plate because you were not there to play defense. So put on your robe, head to the lounge and drink up.

How sweet would that look on your C&A Robe.  I for one would be so jealous.

95% of the stuff has been packed. We have early dinner tonight at Hooked. 
 

Hall & Oates is tonight at 7:00, but they are showing fireworks as we leave Coco Cay. We are currently debating just how badly we want to see H&O, because I would really like to have a nice place to sit up on deck to watch the fireworks show. 
 

Decisions. Decisions. 🤔🤔

The “Dare to Dream” logo kinda needs that P-pin to make it work. 😂

Do they always show fireworks when leaving Coco Cay or just for special occasions?

And goodbye gifts in the cabin. 
 

YOU get a pin! And YOU get a pin! 😀😀

Safe travels home!

So how was it?

See they have Floridian too. And some juice mix, don't  recognize the can.

I liked it for a hot day on the island, but definitely needs to be good and cold. And went well with the crispy chicken sandwich. All in all it’s a pretty light-drinking beer and the fruit flavors, while present, didn’t taste overpowering. 
 

Took this pic so you could see color. 
 

 

And, yes, they had the Floridian hefe and Top Gun IPA.

Thanks. Just walked in the front door a few minutes ago. Missing Symphony already. 😩

I really enjoyed your review. I don’t think DH and I would enjoy a President’s Cruise, but I always enjoy reading about them.
