Definitely Malibu. I like the white cranberry idea though. I can only do one of the coconut ones.

Good part of it walking way to the back of the ship on deck 13.  😄 

 

That's what I was thinking, but we're just as far to the DL on 4 forward

LOL...yeah, you have to be careful or a large hand will activate more buttons than you want.  😉

I no longer do elevators because of this guy.

Lots of little alleys with art, this is just past the Effy store

 

Selfie time. Felt funny wearing my SpaceX hat😉🤣

 

Little restraunts seemed busy.

 

Everyone I spoke with wanted to know how many passengers on the ship

 

Couldn't talk Laura into buying this. Meow

 

MIZ....

After reading your steps posts and thinking about my aging feet,  DSW got a shoe order.  I normally wear heels with sundresses at night but I’m thinking on this ship I better go for nice wedged or low heel sandals.  My feet thank you!

John I love your sense of adventure with your drinks!  And this review has brought me both joy and anticipation - (On phone now with RC resolutions so we can get out FCC for the Odyssey)

thank you!

Laura is lovely - and after seeing her picture on board pointing out the diamond shop, happy to see she increased her bling wear.

I could drink a lot more 'on the house' but I've hit a groove in my routine and 6 or 8 is plenty🤣🤣

 

As far as my sense of adventure, I'm having fun trying new things and remembering old favorites.

Pinnacle Lunch was a Chops theme.

 

But I've seen it before

 

Pepper Bacon was very good. Need to tweak my recipe a little when I get home

 

Captain Per stopped by before his toast

 

Back in the cabin. Beautiful weather

John and others, currently on Anthem. The Pinnacle (lounge) is not a lounge but a space in the music hall, along with the pool tables. I am glad you stopped by when the band was setting up and mentioned the scheduled loud band performance at 7pm.

We have the same most evenings andhave to leave as you cannot have a conversation. Our 5pm to 8pm has been reduced to 5pm to 7pm, thus most pinnacles do not go there.

Way to go RCCL, treat your top tier like ???

We found that way too loud when we were on.  It seemed to be that way in a few of the venues.  They could turn down the volume. 
 

We would get seats near the door so we could exit if it was too loud for us.

My wife and I did the day pass at the resort in the above photo. We booked it online a couple weeks back.  It was spectacular. Great food the best drinks of the week. 2 huge pools an huge water park to have to yourself. Beach is “man made”  but incredible. Felt like we jumped off the back of the ship and swam there. Best 75.00 dollars “each” that I have ever spent on a day pass by far.

I will chime in with some other tidbits later.

Overall we have had a blast!!

What is the name of the resort???

Oh, and I booked a massage for the afternoon. The things I have to do to review a ship is mind boggling.   

 

 

We  do so appreciate all the terrible things that you have to do to review the Odyssey for us.

I appreciate your review so, so much 🙂. Thanks for answering my plethora of questions!  Can’t wait to board Sunday!!!

Guess what dinner was😇

 

Decided to visit Pinnacle Lounge before the show. 

 

It pretty much emptied out around 6:30. The orchestra was doing mike checks for their 7pm show. Really loud

 

So we went to casino so Laura could use her earned credits. She ended up winning $200 on Dancing Drums and she didn't give it back👍

Ahhh glad to see she won on my favorite slot game.

The name plate is under the punk duck

Can you take the duck home?😂

[ILCTCRUISER]

@John&LaLa  Is that Karen with Lara and the Captain?  

[sammydent]

Is Ooma still in the SL? She was the Suite Concierge on our December cruise but she unfortunately contracted Covid during the week. What time we did have with her was great!! She was so kind and helpful.

"Sea" you on Sunday!   We promise to bring her in to pick you up.  Me...will already be unpacked and ready to go round again.   😄  😉

Can someone please post what, if any, Broadway type musical is playing on the ship now? Just wondering. Posts  I have found online contradictory. Hoping for a fast reply as we are thinking of booking this ship for just a couple of weeks from now.  For the ship. Not so much for the itinerary. Easier
Thanks for any help for replies!

There is no Broadway musical on Odyssey.

Rant of the day. 

 

I hate the elevators. Pure hatred.

 

The touchless buttons keep mocking me, the doors close to fast, and once they close, they don’t leave right away. Frustrating.

 

They are generally empty though, so that's a plus

 

 

How do touchless buttons work?

I don't think I got the sense of any cranberry taste when I had one. My bet would be Malibu rum. The drink had a coconut taste.

Just put uour finger near the button and it senses it...or wave your hand over the panel and they all light up like this.
