Allure was our first Oasis Class ship and she is still beautiful 

It was our first too.  We've since done Oasis b2b and will be on Harmony b2b in Nov/Dec.

We've been on Symphony and I hope to be on Oasis in December.  Have two more cruises planned for Oasis 2023.

 

I'm just so happy to see ships back in the water and cruising going well.  The industry really needs this to work to stay in business.

 

eta  If we get in all our cruises, we will actually be Diamond before the Bella cruise.

I'm not used to seeing the bow from that camera it's usually the stern. I like the change. I wonder why they are boarding from port?

Maybe a crew drill earlier?

You can see all your voucher drinks on your SeaPass on the app.  They all show up listing the venue and then with zeros

 

Well, if that's the case, they all appear on my account.

 

Both my app and Laura's app look like this.

 

Actually, 1 drink is missing

She looks so much better without the Ultimate Abyss on the back end.

Someone on these boards once described the stern of the O class ships as looking like they have a cleff palate.

Well,  not sure how to interpret.  When we were on Ovation this past August, drinks we got in the DL were never posted to our account.  Voucher drinks ordered in other venues were posted. DL waiters did take our cards.  If they were swiped, why didn’t they show on our acct?

Exactly. The abyss and it’s color….

I walked out on our balcony just in time to see Allure leaving about 30 minutes ago.  Have a great cruise!

new wrist bands. Nice but hard to adjust yourself. Purple one is from test cruise

 

Is the blue bracelet removeable and what is it made of?

I know this is John’s live review, and I hope he doesn’t get mad that I’m chiming in, but i would love to add a pic or two going forward. Anyways, here the shower products in the CLS. 

 

This is a change since dry dock. I can’t wait to see how it works.

I wasn't impressed with the new body wash.  Could never get it to lather up, even with a wash cloth.  

I’ve always liked a bar of soap over body wash. It’s a me thing.🙂

I'm in Dazzles for Karaoke and martinis.

 

Good times

Moved on to 90's music in Blaze.

 

Grabbed a Baileys in the casino. 👍

 

Laura grabbed a Lemon Drop

Chocolate or Espresso?  The other vodka martini? Cheers!

[John&LaLa]

Update.

 

Kicked out of Blaze so they could fumigate/sanitize. Snuck over to Jazz Club.

 

Laura had to carry her martini. It was touch and go for a minute.😉🍸

That is because Bella has no idea what happens on these cruises.😯

 

She'd have lots of company. Several dogs onboard. I know one.

[ThriftyNiftyCruiser]

Best to leave the Blaze before the fumigation turned the room into a thick Haze! 🥃🍸😆

Enjoy your cruise!

I've never had an espresso martini. Good?

Bon Voyage John & Laura !  Happy to read your live and see the pics!!  
 

Seems like just yesterday (yeah, right, thanks CoVid) that we were reading your live on Allure’s TA to Barcelona  … as Spain prepared to close the borders. 
 

So glad you are back on Allure in happier times, enjoy!!

Very nice. The scent is awesome.

As are the pear.  Can’t go wrong with any of them.  Chocolate, espresso,  grapefruit or Laura’s lemon drop.  
 

Only wrong one would be a dirty.  Tastes like sea water.

Didn't care for the Blaze music

 

Ran/stumbled back to Dazzles to catch Temperature.  They are fabulous. Highly recommend. 

 

Appletini time.
