Limping along on two pods. How's your speed?

 

~18 knots.  That was the previously stated speed on two.  Not bad really.  Smooth and quite impressed.

How are things in the SL? Cozy?


Tonight it was dead, or so it seemed at 5pm.

What kind of person opens a conversation with, 'I'm not like you, I'm a Pinnacle with 1,750 points? 🤔🤣🤣

 

Definitely some Class Envy onboard

That’s a double and a half Pinnacle. 
 

But your reply should be, I’m Star Class. Lol

Honestly havent been up since night 1.

 

May visit for research

 

We walked through Dazzles twice and Blaze once. Technically Pat isn't allowed in, so really can't go there. 17 is just to far away

My impressions are that the suite lounge is empty early and starts to fill about 530 to 6. Coastal kitchen has four or five tables filled at 5 PM and also starts to fill about six. 
Don’t know how either Fare later on because we don’t come back after dinner.

Are you going every night?

I think the 3 night restriction was what had Mr 1750 so annoyed

Day 4, I'm so far behind. I honestly apologize.  

Good thing is, we still have 8 days to go

 

I do need to stop by VOOM desk and see why I can't do two logins. I should have one for being in a suite and one for being Pinnacle.

 

Let me post a lot of paperwork and then I'll see if I can summarize some stuff.

Went to Giovannis night before last but was in the lounge until about 6 pm.  The filet in CK last night was much superior to the one in Giovannis . 

 

 

We were going to have CK delivered to suite last night, but went with Chops in suite instead.

I'm sure yours was better😉

You will see a few changes for Izumi. Jay had us in the Sushi side for two nights😱

It was a fairly easy fix (for him) to move us.

The changes were all done when he stopped by in the afternoon to review this

Naive question. Are there different levels of Pinnacle?

Not yet, I'm sure Mr 1750 wishes there were.

 

Need to find out what cabin he's in and thank him for the kind words last night.

BTW, the background to many of my pictures is a board game we brought with us.

 

We've never played it, but Pat bought it for me for Christmas this year.

Hope to play it if the weather turns ugly

Muster was right below our suite.

We were there, contrary to this lovely note we found on our cabin door.

20200301_233533.thumb.jpg.0659d6058d8466a99dd4debabf80a813.jpg

 

For those that attended, it was a mess

We had no sound from the bridge. So everybody got up and left, but they blocked us in.

One person got irate, the rest of us just seemed to chill

Welcome aboard goodies

 

It's a long way down here

20200301_124101.thumb.jpg.c81fca28a8e83e8db83ff82da38fc006.jpg

 

So I get why they stock it up cases at a time

20200301_124013.thumb.jpg.82069e5e74840ecff399cca87d59e0bb.jpg

 

20200301_123936.thumb.jpg.9a80dbc8de8070399539bbe73d8b6c50.jpg

 

But the nefarious side of me wonders if this isn't the crew hoard for the drydock

 

We got fresh snacks as well

20200301_123959.thumb.jpg.bc5269f8ee00094d85228bbc55234f96.jpg

 

I requested the cherry peppers. They are really good

20200301_124033.thumb.jpg.da108ac4d351222c7b7970ced446dab1.jpg

 

Berries came while we were at lunch

20200301_163817.thumb.jpg.b4124c890a15cb1fc2279c2574b4c499.jpg

 

FWIW, I was hoping to gt some more food for sail away, but Jay said they aren't doing that anymore.

No more room service on day 1 before 5:30

Seems odd, but I didn't push it
