We Texans are pretty excited about it.

We are getting a newer oasis class ship next year , I have Harmony booked for November 2023.

[RoperDK]

Hope you have a great cruise!  We are on Harmony in a couple of weeks.  I noticed that the free evening drinks go until 8.  I thought it ended at 7.  Can you still get a free drink if you are eating at CK before 8 or do you have to be sitting in the suite lounge portion of the room?  

[George C]

We had suite happy hour 5 to 8 on allure in November

Did you stay at the ES on 17th & Cordova? We like to stay at the Holiday Inn Express which I think is next door. We love this area. So many restaurants and Publix is right there, all within walking distance.

Yup. 
 

and you know what that means   
GOOD NIGHT. 

[Lionesss]

It is almost 1:30 am. 
Internet fast. Everyone must be nighty night  

 

So at dinner while eating in Coastal Kitchen, as you look out the window. We could see 6 cruise ships. It was kinda neat. 
 

 

 

[Lionesss]

We enjoyed our dinners. 
Rock had shrimp cocktail and Caesar salad along with his steak mash potatoes and veggies. 
 

I had Caesar salad and Veal canaoli  (sp) 

 

We both opted out of dessert. 
 

 

 

 

[Lionesss]

And guess what the buzz is on board. 
 

 

 

 

Apparently there’s something naughty that came off the coast of Africa. 
 

To early to tell if it will impact our itinerary. 
 

 

[will5mom]

Have a great cruise!  Can't wait to sail on her Oct 1.

[Lionesss]

Good morning from Allure of the seas at 

C. 

 

Went to bed around  1am  

 

The ship used it’s side by side motion to rock us to sleep. 
 

It did no work. 
 

It’s not a bad  at sea motion. 
But the motion is probably making a few people not feeling well. 
 

I first noticed it coming back to the cabin last night. 
 

At first I thought. Damn I’m drunk. Not drinking all those rum and cokes  again tonight. But when see others listing ……..to the left. …….then to the right it reminded me of BUFFEtT concert.  It was then I realized I can blame the CCCCCCCCCCCCCC’s. 
 

Breakfast at CK. 
 

Then become a sun worshiping human being. 
 

Not taking pictures of breakfast. 
Every know what fried eggs softly made with sausage and toast looks like.  
 

Then off to the pool to visit all the towels on loungers. 
 

Stay safe. 
 

 

Oh want to hear something unusual. 
last night when I was playing in the casino  the hostess came up to me and asked if I needed anything. I just said a winning machine. We chit chatted for about 5 min. 
Now I know you can be tracked in casino with you sea  pass in machine. 
She was so sweet. 
 

Later

It's on other social media, and says at least 5 days before we will know. I think more might affect next week than you, but it could speed up. Going very slow right now. Way early to know, 40% chance it will form in 5 days as of this morning. I think it's going to wait for me to cruise.

On our last sailing in May. I tried all the shower products. 
I found out that the body wash is okay. Shampoo tolerable. But the conditioner is bad. It seemed to make my hair feel sticky after rinsing for over 5 min. 
 

So on that cruise I asked if they have any of the L’ Octaine products. To my surprise  they provided us with shampoo, and conditioner. The big bottles “pump’ dispenser.  And a couple small bottles. 
 

So yesterday when I asked Marva if the ship had any bottles left. 
 

Her response was. Once all the cabins had the dispenser in the shower all of the other products will be donated to charity on the islands. 
 

So in other words. None available. 
 

I had a back up plan. 
I did purchase conditioner at Publix. 
 

So yesterday. When we returned. We found one bottle of L’Octaine shampoo In our cabin. 
and a few small

bottles of conditioner. 
 

All the rest has been donated 

everything shower products are just a memory. 

 

At least it  I won’t have hair  that looks like I could make a donation to the kitchen and pre treat the pans so food will not stick. 
 

Shower installed holder for shower stuff

 

 

Last of individual suite shower stuff. 
The Herbal essence conditioner is mine   

 

 

Also. Our towels for the pool are provided in our suite. We can bring back or leave at pool.   
 

 

Off to pool. 
 

Sea ya. 

[Lionesss]

I turned on the TV to see the information on temperature outside, sea depth, and travel distance. 
 

Currently not showing. 
 

So I used the “FIND MY PHONE APP.”

 

Now it shows where we are at.

Grandeur in may still had some small bottles, but not that brand you showed. My steward said just ask if I wanted any more replaced. I think it's at 340 pts we are supposed to get upgraded shower amenities. If you were in a JS or above those on the wall are the replacement they were told. Idk how they can get rid of the personal sizes if they are listed as a loyalty perk. You might have a balcony which doesnt have the upgraded toiletries on the wall. Either rcl has to remove it as a perk or there will be individual bottles. Maybe your room steward doesnt realize it's a rcl loyalty perk or only does suites?

 

Amenity perk bottles on grandeur.

You got that right! We have to tell them that sharing is caring. We will also be in a Crown Loft suite, so I really appreciate the pictures.

[Arzeena]

Hmmm Cilantro Hair Conditioner?

I saw this line of toileteries in a hotel very recently and was wondering. (I bring my own stuff so don't know what it was like)  I think it was the Courtyard.
