Rare h20skibum Posted October 23, 2021 Author #29 Share Posted October 23, 2021 So this day has arrived. We had booked a 10:45 shuttle from the hotel for our 12-12:30 boarding time. The shuttle was about 25 minutes late, but that worked out perfect. We were the first off the shuttle at 11:30, and 15 minutes later we are thru security and waiting now to board. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted October 23, 2021 Author #30 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Oh, and they do have the rubber vaccinated bands. I prefer these over some I have seen. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a great cruise! Looking forward to seeing some sunrise pics over the ocean rather than the lake. I might borrow this as well. Every @Sea Dog loses it’s bone upon occasion. 😉😂 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say the same thing, Bob, about Mark posting ocean pictures in place of his lake pics! 3 hours ago, h20skibum said: We were up early enough to watch Odyssey sail in to port. Exciting to see your ship first thing in the morning. Let the fun begin!! 1 hour ago, Sea Dog said: Great Job Mark. idea stolen but it's all good. Glad I could inspire you. Love the writing and analogies. Enjoy and I will be following along with great anticipation. I agree with you 100%. Mark does have a great way with writing and with his analogies! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tree_skier Posted October 23, 2021 #34 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Brilliant start, this "Live" will keep me checking back into cruise critic repeatedly over the course of every day this next week. I love that google earth video, like @A&L_OntI plan on pilfering this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted October 23, 2021 #35 Share Posted October 23, 2021 When you get a chance can you do a walk thru in the Casino and see if they have any old type of slot machines. Not those fancy light-up specials. Asking for a friend.. It is what it is. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meg1021 Posted October 23, 2021 #40 Share Posted October 23, 2021 From one Western Pennsylvanian to another, have a great cruise! I'll be following along. We're booked on B2B Odyssey cruises in January. Haven't booked flights yet, because recent Southwest troubles are giving me pause. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ozark_Kid Posted October 23, 2021 #41 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I was just able to see Odyssey on the WebCam. Enjoy the cruise. Looking forward to following. Where do you plan to eat tonight? Going to a show? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted October 23, 2021 Author #42 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Boarding was probably the quickest ever. Got aboard and went to the Solarium Bistro for lunch. It was very quiet there, and the crew was very attentive. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted October 23, 2021 Author #44 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Before we finished course lunch, they announced that the cabins were open around 1:20 We walked to our cabin, and our suitcases were already waiting outside our door. We are in a regular, mid-ship balcony cabin because Royal evidently didn’t like my UP bids. Our spacious bath Our long, narrow cabin. Note, this is after we already unpacked, so ignore the clutter. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted October 23, 2021 Author #45 Share Posted October 23, 2021 We did manage to get all the shows booked that we wanted to see this week. Here is the schedule. We also booked an I-fly session later this week for both of us. That should be interesting. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted October 23, 2021 Author #46 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Spent our afternoon relaxing in the Solarium, and now it is time to get ready for dinner. We are in the MDR tonight, because we love the first night prime rib. In the meantime, a couple more pictures from today. Dang it feels good to be back. For all the cat lovers out there Flying and surfing. Getting the bumper cars ready Where you will find me a lot this week No word on capacity this week yet. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
