Penguin or seagull

 

I think you're close because I think it is some kind of bird (it has a small beak * hint*). Guess again.

Isn't the chocolate dessert the "world" from Wonderland?

Yes and it's the best dessert I have ever had in my life, but then again I am a chocolate lover.

hmm, a platypus? or echidna.

 

Nope. Guess again. Lol, I just realized that I said "this fella" and "had bedroom eyes". Scratch the "had bedroom eyes" part. I'm just not into dudes (not that there is anything wrong with that).

I have this shirt and wear it all the time.  I get a lot of comments from people about it.  Sums up my retirement mantra pretty well.

 

Ditto!

Here's a couple of nice shots of the Centrum;

 

 

Looking up in the Centrum;

 

 

There's a "secret staircase" on deck 4, all the way forward. The stairs lead up to the open bow area (where the helo pad is) that is accessible by passengers (and allowed). However, as you can see by the sign, they closed it down due to strong winds (and it's not even that windy).

 

 

Yours truly, on my balcony. Look, there's a cup of coffee magically balancing itself on my balcony railing;

I just did a Google search to verify the sugar content.  Assuming that you can trust the internet, Fireball has 11g of sugar per shot, and Jack Fire has 8g.  Better, but still not good.  I'll stick with my bourbon.

I may have to rethink this. Though, as I said, I don't have much I might decide to have none.

I get really frustrated when it is closed. It is a favorite place of mine to spend some time.

Everything in moderation.

I tend to go with extremes. It is just how I was made I guess.

At the pool having mojitos. Our concierge is a miracle worker! We were supposed to have lunch at Giovanni s but there is a private event so they moved us to Chops. We are all chopped out! I requested Izumi but it was booked. She made it happen!!

And what are those little things floating in the oil & vinegar? It is roasted quinoa?  

That was this chef's take on Scallop Carpaccio.   Just no.  That and the tomato soup look very disappointing and nothing like what I had at the Chef's Table the past few times.  I hope the wine was spectacular, since these courses look disappointing.   I'm sorry they weren't better.

 

Thanks for sharing guys! I'm living vicariously through you!  😁

 Actually the tomato soup was good. I did not like the first 2 courses way too salty for me! The last 3 were quite good but NOT as good as the Wine Makers or Chefs Dinner on Princess IMO of course. The wine was good but too many whites and only 1 red. I am a big bold full bodied red girl.😜I just drank that mostly. The chocolate martini was good too. 
 

Everything is included in the price. You can drink as much wine as you want.

Are masks required while on RCL excursions in Cozumel? Particularly,  the Fury Catamaran excursion. We are on upcoming Adventure sailing. I understand masking while in town, but if we have to wear masks while actually on the catamaran, we would cancel.

Did this excursion a month ago. Once we were on board, the Captain gave his required speech and told us we could remove our masks until we got back to land. We didn't have to wear them on the beach either.

 

On a side note, If you plan to leave a tip for the crew, you may want to (somehow) bring some money for the people serving drinks on the beach. This, of course, is entirely up to you.

The chocolate martini is yummy!  I wish it was at the beginning of the meal, since I usually can't finish because I'm so full (and tipsy).  The dessert too.  I think all meals should BEGIN with dessert.  😃

Absolutely,  I have had it at Chef’s table as well as in Wonderland.

Y'all are very lucky.  I just looked on Cruise Mapper and it showed only .1m/.4m seas all the way to Freeport.  We are getting hammered with really brutal t-storms right now in SAV.  😲

That's a huge pizza at 12 feet, but I know what you meant. 🍕 🥂

🤣 That thing's bigger than @MorganClark's feet (which seem to be showing up everywhere these days).
