Celebrity ship off to the port side.  Looks like one of the newer ships with the magic carpet.  I can barely make out the orange on the side.

Last day at sea.  So sad.  Not looking forward to packing up but ready to go home and get the dogs out of puppy vacation 😂 

Looks like it was a great cruise.

definitely!  We really enjoyed this cruise and itinerary.  Would have preferred Bonaire instead of Grand Cayman but no big deal.

 

 I think the UDP for 8 nights is a bit much.  Too much food!!  And the waiters seem so disappointed when you don’t clean the plate or want to skip dessert.  Ended up canceling a lunch and dinner a couple days because we just weren’t that hungry.  I think the 3 night package would have better suited us.  We actually had the 3 night package booked originally and decided to do UDP the week prior since the price was reasonable.  Still got our monies worth & don’t regret it.

 

Packing has begun 😩

Hitting the Jammer next for lunch.  Then maybe some pool deck or solarium time before playoffs games start.  Probably go to Tavern or Casino for football games.

Sailed to ABC islands January 2020 on Explorer.  Loved the Itinerary and the ship.  People were complaining about the ship needing some love at that time although we did not see anything in that bad of shape and nothing that got in the way of our having a great time.  I am sure it does now need that attention since that did not happen with the COVID shut down.  Have enjoyed following along as it bring back the good time we had.  16 days and counting down to when my sister and I board Radiance.  Thanks for letting us follow along.

Glad you enjoyed following!  We will be boarding Radiance in June for Alaska Southbound.

@SteelCityCruiser10thank you so much for your live review. We’re on EX in April for 8 nights to ABC islands. Your review has gotten us even more stoked!

Football on Tavern TVs and also found on the cabin TV

One last trip to casino.  Turned $20 into $87. I’ll take it.  

 

Bags are out and turning in for a long travel day.  Flight out of MIA not until 3 pm.  Plan on taking our time getting off the ship and taking a Lyft to MIA.

Back to Miami

It was pretty rocky last night around 3-5am.

Jags pulled off the win!  Wow. Fell asleep after the Chargers missed field goal.  Funny how those missed field goals and extra points come back to bite you especially in the playoffs.  

[SteelCityCruiser10]

Final coffee in the CL 😢 

[SteelCityCruiser10]

Perla walked us off around 9.  Customs facial recognition was fast and easy.  Ended up catching a black sedan service right outside customs for $10/person to MIA.

We like UDP, but tend to agree with you that unless there are several places where you like various things on the menu, a total cruise UDP might be a bit too much.

 

Sorry your cruise had to end.. Save travels home.

Thanks for taking us along.  Safe travels home. 

[SteelCityCruiser10]

Why not …  Got time to kill before the flight.  The Clover Irish Pub at MIA
