Any idea if/when/where the documentary might be made available to the public?  I'd be very interested.

I wouldn’t be surprised.  Nick said he intends to submit it to the Miami film festival.

@twangster my mom still says her tour of Central Park to learn about the plants was one of her most favorite things she’s ever done on a cruise.

Did you get off in Puerto Rico??

I was wondering if you took any pictures there.

I did briefly to get a ship picture.  
 

it was weird.  Put on a mask to walk down the pier.  PR rules.

@twangster  Thank you for so many lovely pictures of Central Park!  Also for the information about Lazlo.  That was just wonderful to read!

 

How cool to be able to have Nick tell you about the making of The Effectors.  I was on Odyssey last Saturday night to watch the first full production of the show.  It was amazing and I can't to see both the documentary and Effectors 2!

Do you have to wear a mask outside all over Old San Juan?

No.Just when you go inside stores and restaurants. We seen a few locals wearing them outside though.

We were just talking about that right now.  Mixed  results.  Security would not let me off without a mark, then upon returning security told everyone to rip off the masks.  It was weird.

The Aqua Show was not the full inTENse show since the cast just arrived. It was snippets of what will become the show with narration by Nick Weir.  
 

Some iPhone pics from the show segments:

 

 

 

 

 

There was a guest performer on board for this and possibly next week.  While inTENse has an all female cast this special guest is Ukrainian and only on for a limited time. 

 

 

 

I’m also including some wide angle shots so you see the effect of the new backdrop.

Lighting looks cool on the backdrop.

The effect with moving video is very powerful.  The aqua theater projection technology has come a long way from the early days.

Voices

 

One of the new theater production pieces is called Voices.  Nick Weir once again introduced the show for us and explained there are no musical instruments used, every sound in the show comes from a human.  
 

Really strong vocals and a great collection of music.   

 

 

 

 

[Surfguyxxx]

That sounds so cool; can't wait to feast my eyes and ears on that production!

[Ocean Boy]

The entertainment on this ship has me really intrigued.

[bobmacliberty]

Think I'm going to really like that Aquatheater.  The shell sounds like it can add a lot.

I only ventured off to take a picture of the ship.  A mask was required to walk down the windy pier.  Once stepping back on the ship I was told to “remove that mark!”.

Pretty decent Bourbon selection.   Rye is a bit under whelming, just what's out at other bars.

Chicken sammie looks delish.

[twangster]

The cabin bathrooms do have a clothes hanging line which is a great place to hang a freshly washed shirt that just had a Johnny Rocket’s Egg Sandwich explode all over it when taking a first bite. 
 

The yokes on me.

Beautiful sea day after Mother Nature tested her sprinklers.  Taken moments ago.  
 

 

 

[twangster]

Playmakers overload of pictures.  
 

From my balcony I thought I could hear @Biker19 screaming across the ocean “too many pictures in one post!”.  Sorry dude, CAS event about to start.  My thread, my rules.

Don't worry, one of the other live from threads is even worse.
