Tender, cabin, passengers and Dining Room. I refuse to give them up😂

I’m big on Pursers Desk too

[TxTeach79]

I call this piece “tragedy in the stairwell”

 

[TxTeach79]

It’s 7p. This is unbelievable. I don’t know what’s up on this ship. Miracle was KINDA like this, but it was more crowded than THIS. And miracle has. Huge alchemy for a small ship.

So someone asked - my Alma mater is playing in the NIT on ESPN+ tonight, and no, I’m not able to stream like I was on Horizon and MG.

Whoa. This is a first. Same day service! 
 

Just curious... is it still $10 wash & fold?

[TxTeach79]

I was gonna go to Deal or no Deal but I don’t think I can leave empty Alchemy. It’s like finding a unicorn

I use the 3 platinum bags benefit, I’m not sure. I’ll try to remember to get a pic of the prices later, if I forget feel free to remind me

Out of the 8 cruises I have taken since Restart, only one had an Alchemy Bar not totally packed to the gills.  Ecstasy was reasonable at my usual drink before dinner time of 6:30.  All the rest, crazy busy!  Glad you found your unicorn🦄

yes!!! I was on sensation before she went to the great sea day in the sky, and that was great and accessible. Miracle wasn’t bad in alaska, we could almost always get a spot. But Breeze, Dream, Vista, Horizon, MG… all slammed constantly. This is amazing. I may not leave til I hit 15.

Pride is my favorite ship. We'll be heading to Greenland on her September 2024! 😎

 

Me too!  Plus, doing the Bermuda before it for a B2B. Broke it to the boss today. Have enough vacay, but, they frown on 3 weeks together, so will work remotely for a few over the two cruises and we'll call it 2 weeks. Whew!

 

Will be nice to see any changes by TxTeach after the dry dock. Can't wait for that review, it looks like a good one!

[TxTeach79]

Still almost no one. 7:30p. Geron made me “something with rum” that has agave, two rums, pineapple juice, and midori. And it’s delicious!

I wonder when Belize is going to open Port Coral. Please do post a photo tomorrow if you are docked close enough. 

[TxTeach79]

I mean Geron is just trying things out at this point, and I’m better for it.

I’m not familiar! We’ll be at anchor, I’m not sure where

And what are we doing here? It’s not sushi. It’s not a Taste Bar. It’s just…. Nothing. Pretty big chunk of prime real estate too. 
 

One of the things I really miss, the Taste Bar.

[TxTeach79]

Apparently last night Cookie showed up at the piano bar and jumped on top of the piano and did a full Michelle Pfieffer Fabulous Baker Boys routine. Checks out.

Gotcha!

 

We anchored at Belize on Vista last year and I noticed a giant artificial island with construction cranes that wasn’t there the last time I was in Belize (which was like 2013 so it had been a while). Apparently, it is a new development called “Port Coral” that the government is building in partnership with a private developer. The goal is to provide a place for ships to anchor rather than have to tender. It is basically going to be something like Mahogany Bay or Grand Turk, but it will be its own island. 
 

It seems like a great project, but I also think it is really behind schedule and there’s not a lot of transparency / news updates about it’s progress…

I walked down to avoid elevator jam. Piece of cake 

 

 

 

I spy one person who didn't walk down

That is not normal for the Glory at 7:30. It is usually packed by this time.

Didn’t notice a Norwegian ship in today. Looks like Dawn class, can’t see the hull art well enough to tell who 

 

 

oasis class ship still there, firing up 

 

Allure of the Seas in case you were wondering and as someone confirmed, Norwegian Dawn.
