I’m not sure what caused this but a young man was just yelling at an older woman by the aft pool, screaming, “You’re drunk! Do you want me to call security!?”

Probably his Mom, one of them was drunk 😀

Our bathroom sink was leaking onto the floor yesterday and we had little to no hot water, but both issues were fixed promptly.

They called earlier today offering to move us, but we love our location, so we politely declined.

 

The slot pull gods were not with us this time around. We all put in $20 each, and left with $6.60 each. 

At least it wasn't $6.66 😲

Well our cabin has a slight leak (thankfully from above not below) so they are moving us…wish us luck!

What deck and cabin number are you in ?  I think we’re on Dolphin deck

 

We’re on this ship on the 23rd and want to check if we’re in same cabin

We had dinner in Sabatinas tonight - it was about half full.

 

Sundy and Monday nights we ate in the Coral.  The two of us had table for 4.  There are not many 2 tops there.  We got there both nights around 5:45 and both nights we were the first table the waiter had.  The dinning room never was a third full.  The explores Loung had 2 shows by a mentalist / magician.  The early show (6pm) was only about a quarter full but the later 8pm was full - first time seen a crowd anywhere.

The ship is constantly being cleaned. Chairs and tables are being wiped down as people get up and leave. Hand sanitizer stations are everywhere. We feel safer on board than we do in our local grocery stores. (And the weather is much better in St. Thomas right now compared to Atlanta!)

How do you keep covid free in FLL before getting on the ship?

Our flight landed at 12:30pm on embarkation day. We snagged a large SUV via Uber (Suburban) and went straight to the port where the terminal was empty.

Five minutes  later we were on board.

We wanted to limit our time in Fort Lauderdale, and contact with others, so we even carried our own bags on board the ship.

That’s smart!

slightly less than 900 now, I’ll see if I can find out next week’s numbers but I’m pretty sure that they’ll get lower daily.

They brought some birds on board tonight.

Q: What is it like to be on a ship at 25% capacity?

 

A: It’s 8:15PM and we’re the only 2 people in Vines.

They need to clean the bridge cam! I’ve been stalking you all from home, and I thought it was raining the past 3 days. 😂 It’s just spots on the live cam.

They must be using a different cam for the webpage, as the one we’ve been watching on our stateroom tv has looked pretty good.

They brought this lady on the day were in St. Thomas on the Sky last month as well.  Very interesting!  One of the few packed venues from our cruise.

Who is the sommelier at Vines? Thanks for posting about your experiences.

As someone who wrote many wine lists when I was much younger, I feel safe in saying that none of the staff in Vines are true sommeliers. One young kid the other night was using pre-filled glasses of water to measure his pours.

We made three cruises in November/December  Ruby-Caribbean and Regal  In Vines all three used water filled glasses to measure (compare) pours. If you watch closely you may even see them mark the wine bottles when they pour.  Seems like there has been an emphasis on amount from each bottle. We probably averaged 4 hours a day at Vines on each of the cruises-When we weren't at Good Spirits.  NO, we are not alcoholics-Alcoholics go to meetings 🙂
