Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #26 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Decided to try out Le Cabaret Rouge tonight as the Chora (Madison)Theatre is at later times.(will post daily planners). Sail away was at 6:30. Did not clear until nearly 1 pm. Butler blamed it on immigration at port. Lunch in YC was packed as no buffet at One Pool Deck was too cold and rain. Had to close all the bars on ship so guests would return to staterooms to watch muster video, dial 881, then report to muster stations to have key card scanned. YC stateroom key card over ride is hit or miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #27 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) Arrived at Ocean Cay at around 5 am this morning. Appears overcast. Waiting for sunrise. It’s about 71 degrees so far. This act is an example of offering in Le Cabaret Rouge. His intro was he was on leave from some gig in Las Vegas. In this stunt he goes up to someone in the audience removes their sneaker and balances it on his nose.

Well, judging by that nice pair of spectators he is wearing in the picture, he clearly nose his shoes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Lisa is in the YC restaurant with mattress d’ Louis (pronounced with a Portuguese shush.) Freudian slip? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #30 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Today’s daily program for Ocean Cay. Weather is getting better but the cushions on the OnePool Deck will need some hours yet to dry out so today will be a balcony day. Guests are out and in the sur.

Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #32 Share Posted December 27, 2022 This 16 second video( if it uploads) will give one some idea of the show entertainment in the Chora Theatre. IMG_2572.MOV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #33 Share Posted December 27, 2022 This 9 second video gives one the taste of the entertainment provided in Terminal C by the Port of Miami while we waited and waited and waited to clear for boarding. We all gave ourselves a standing ovation as we were first to begin boarding. IMG_2556.MOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear you and I both know that the DW is the most important figure to our own personal enjoyment (read "survival") of a cruise experience!

Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #40 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Thought this was highly unusual for any cruise ship, these ash trays on either side of the bed. Perhaps a holdover from inaugural cruise? Until we got back from the show last night. Instead of a wrapped Venchi chocolate on each of our pillows, we had a wrapped Venchi placed in the center of this ‘tray’ on the side table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a change for the better. Hopefully, it will spread to the other ships that went pergola instead of cabana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bgwest Posted December 27, 2022 #43 Share Posted December 27, 2022 8 hours ago, morpheusofthesea said: Just upgraded to streaming for 2 devices. Screen shot indicates that the total for 2 devices is $48 for each of us. Both interesting and useful information. Much appreciated as our upcoming cruise is our first in YC and we've wondered about the cost to upgrade to streaming. Math is clearly NOT my friend and never has been so I have to ask about your posting. You said that you upgraded two devices. The screen shot says that the upcharge is $16 per day/device and the total is $48.00 after 46% off. I cannot decipher how they arrived at $48. Can you help?

I went to check out our pergola this morning and it was still too wet to use but I took a 'feel' of the roof material and it is not canvas but heavy duty white plastic vinyl.

I do not ask questions when DW demands to have the best. The browse package comes as part of the YC, so when she couldn't get on youtube I went to the mscwifi.com sign in page and it suggested upgrades to browse. I clicked on 2 devices and up came the screen I posted. Thought $48 was reasonable and so not worth an argument over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #46 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Here is another interesting observation. While in Ocean Cay in October on the Seashore, all the shops were open on board the ship. Most everyone was out and about on the island. We came back on board to have lunch in the air conditioning, and found that all the onboard shops, except Venchi chocolate kiosk, was giving a 20% off sale on everything for the crew, which the shops extended to guests on board. Today we went to deck 5 shops and the Venchi kiosk to do some purchasing and everything is CLOSED. We asked what has happened. It appears that there are not enough staff on board to handle Ocean Cay, so the staff of the all the shops have been commandeered to work on the island.

Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 27, 2022 Author #47 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Found this interesting. When we walked into are cabin just before lunch embarkation day we found these 7 bottles of different types of liquor. Did not have to ask. Someone remembered we have a TA that will drink anything.

My thought is that $48 is an extremely reasonable price for the upgrade of 2 devices. I looked at your earlier posts trying to determine how long your cruise is so that I can try to import the math to match our upcoming 14 day cruise. Trying to determine our upgrade cost. Does mscwifi.com work only while onboard? Edited December 28, 2022 by Bgwest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does mscwifi.com work only while onboard? This is the first leg 7 days for $48. We’ll have to do it again for the next leg for another $48. Mscwifi.com needs a ID # from your key card to log on.
