It seems such an odd appetizer. I will have to try this during my next HAL cruise. Escargot? I'll take two, please. Growing up I hated Ham . It was either very smokey or very salty . And then I tried a Honeybaked Ham and things changed . Will this do for bacon what Honeybaked did for Ham ? Probably not but we think that it's a step in the right direction . It's a treat for us - but like Escargot , we wouldn't like to eat it all the time . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted February 3, 2022 Author #243 Share Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) We forgot that on the way to dinner on the previous evening we stops at the Lincoln Center Stage when we heard this song . I could name that song in 2 notes . When they finished we tried to walk down the covered area toward the restaurant when a door flew open blocking our path . The musicians rushed out carrying their instruments and almost sideswiping us . We veered and almost collided the a ship's officer in full dress uniform with his lady . It seemed like everyone was busy on the last evening at sea . Dinner on our final evening was in the Tamarind and we had a little drama before we received any food . The Fire alarm went off and 4 junior officers that were seated for dinner scurried off . The Captain made a quick announcement that there was smoke in the ship's laundry . It was a belt from one of the dryers that made some smoke - but no fire .

Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted February 3, 2022 Author #244 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I forgot to show the previous afternoon puffy clouds . We have 2 bags each and can manage them well but the port will not allow us to carry them on the escalator to do self assist . Thus we send the big bags downstairs to purple 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have experienced that kind of event as well. During a reception that I attended, the Master and the Hotel Manager were in attendance. The fire alarm sounded and they scurried out of the Explorer's Lounge headed for the Bridge. A couple of minutes later, the Staff Captain ran by, headed for the mid-ship's stairway as we watched the fire team arrive and suit up. We, the guests, wondered, with our drinks in hand: what in the heck ought we do? Very shortly, the Captain announced on the PA what was taking place. A waste basket fire in a crew cabin was the cause and the fire team had everything under control. Such an experience does increase one's blood pressure, however, for awhile. Just another travel adventure! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another travel adventure! When I worked for Fire Rescue in Miami Dade County we had 3 signals to alert us . The first one was a regular phone . A hot line phone had a different , louder ring that usually dispatched 1 unit . Most likely it was Rescue which is what I drove and rode on . The third was a Klaxon alarm followed by the units numbers dispatched . In a normal fire it would be 3 engines and a Rescue and possibly a Chief . The Klaxon going off in the middle of the night when you were sleeping felt like you were being defibrillated at 400 watt / seconds and had a white a high powered light being shined in your face simultaneously .😱 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
