meatball_nyc Posted November 29, 2021 #701 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Cheers Sid. If I didn’t have to work tomorrow I’d be having a few Vodka and Cranberrys with you right now. Only a Pinot Grigio is going on. Sleep well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they've been closed here at Alchemy for twenty minutes or so, and the natives are beginning to get restless... they do it when all the people that didn’t show up go. Like traditional muster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he wanted the larger bottle to replace the one in his cabin. According to the specs with Cheers you're allowed to get a large format water bottle (still or sparkling) at the MDR or any of the specialty venues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pool that is the size of a large hot tub. That and the view is why the Havana area on the Vista Class ships blows away the Havana area on the Excel Class. This area, besides no food except pizza available after 1000 pm are the two areas where the ball was dropped on the MG. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got large bottles of water every night in dining room. We also went through 3 bottles in the room and didn’t get charged! Maybe it was our room steward didn’t charge us? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sayin. Sorry for your troubles tonight, Sid. We understand. It’s not worth the stress! And it’s not your fault. Total respect for all your hard work trying to get it done. We get it. Enjoy Cozumel tomorrow, Sid 💕 Here’s to you, Carnival Mardi Gras: P.S. I understand ship’s internet signals in the middle of the ocean are not what we are used to on land. Hello... I carry a small portable battery and cord with me when I travel so I can charge up anytime I need it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s during the announcement right before sail away. Happened on Mardi Gras and Panorama. Bummed me out as I didn’t think bars would close with new muster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhere else for prime time, back to alchemy for awhile before they close 😉 That's a good game plan. I will be starting at P&A with a Bloody Mary or Red Frog Tiki with a MeganGC, oh I mean a Wiki wiki. A few more samples there around mid day before Alchemy opens. Then Fortune Teller for early happy hour, Brass Magnolia post dinner and back to Alchemy for closing. Throw in the occasional comedy show and it should be a great B2B. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see anything special when I was on the Horizon last month when I visited the Alchemy bar. I don't know if it was because we couldn't get a seat at the main bar and we were sitting at the secondary bar/table..... You need to sit at the main bar and establish a rapport with one of the mixologists. Starting early in the week always helps. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
