Rare TxTeach79 Posted December 29, 2022 Author #103 Share Posted December 29, 2022 So far whenever we grab two cocktails it runs about $35. Really can’t wait for CHEERS, you guys. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted December 29, 2022 Author #108 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Miraculously, as exhausted as I’ve been, this is the second night in a row I can barely sleep if it all. The good news? It’s 2:50 AM EST and the passport has gone from Dallas to Houston and is currently at the FedEx hub in Memphis. #progress 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted December 29, 2022 Author #110 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Some fun facts about what’s ahead while I can’t sleep - So on my solo MG trip thanksgiving week, other than a couple meals at Emerils (both outstanding), and one late night sushi bite at Bonsai, I stuck to quick service dining all over the ship, which is great for me and honestly what I think Carnival does best. This time, with B along for the ride, we’re gonna treat it a little differently. we have Rudi’s on embarkation day. I’m a big seafood guy, so I’m super excited about this one. Now normally I would never do this on embarkation day - I like to start with a Fun Ship once I get onboard and party through Sailaway, have an easy buffet or quick service dinner, chill night. But this time? Sailing on NYE? Yeah, we need a concerted effort to make it to midnight! So pace the drinking, get a nice big meal in, play the long game. Teppanyaki the next day. This one is one of our favorites, we loved it on the Horizon. I enjoyed it on NCL Breakaway too (it was better on Horizon). This was really the only day available for two by the time I booked it, but it works out because we have an early day in Nassau the next day. As for Nassau, we bought day passes to the RIU Paradise Island. That’ll be a float and drink in the pool by the beach day. In Amber Cove, B picked this one out: and then in Grand Turk, we used OBC to book this one: so basically that’s what we’re looking at! I’ll also likely hit ChiBang for the first time as well. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted December 29, 2022 Author #114 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Guys, I can’t stress enough what a wild ride that was. Between the Southwest meltdown and this…. I think B is feeling like herself for the first time in days! Time to go enjoy Epcot! But first, quick bagel sando at Pop! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edspec Posted December 29, 2022 #122 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Yay!!! So happy for you. Your WDW and Pop pictures are making me miss WDW. For six or seven years we went to WDW every September, then DS decided he didn't like it any longer. DH and I would really like to go back but when I pulled up rates for October 23 Pop was approximately $250/night. Crazy, if I recall we used to pay about $110/night. Of course that was back in 2007-2013. We get a military discount so will keep checking, but will not go back until/if the dining plan is reinstated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
