Rare Lionesss Posted March 13, 2023 #1076 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Good afternoon. The minute the opened the doors we were early birds and easily walked off the ship. We went to the pool beach. Got a chair in prime real estate. Consumed one frozen ( melted) strawberry daiquiri. We were told we could use any devices signed up for because island has capabilities. Food was typical picnic food. I had a steak hoagie. Had some unknown spice in it. Took one bite. That was enough. Ended up with a grilled Cuban sandwich. Cucumber and tomato salad. Water and Diet Coke. Got very HOT, left to come back to ship at noon. See many individual groups of teens. Riding elevators. Camping out at Sorrentos, no real problems. Easy to ignore. If I can live thru the 15 y/p curse. Quincinterra ) sp). I can survive these youngsters. Tonight comedy club. still having some issues posting pictures. 13:43 lionesss 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like for every 2 pages I read, another page of posts appeared. You guys are off to a great start. Cheers! Glad they didn’t wind up finishing this morning in the rain!

Ken got us both these cabins last Dec. and again this August...loved the balcony. We left a small note for ourselves under the felt in the safe(12629), is it still there? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camping out at Sorrentos, no real problems. Easy to ignore. We heard there’s some sort of band camp group this sailing. I’ve heard all about the band camp from the American pie movie. Watch out for the flute girl. Now, if it’s the Italian youth club, they’ll be pretty sad hanging out at Sorrento’s.

Here is my report from Oasis in December and Harmony in February. 12/11 - 12/14 is Oasis. That wasn’t bad but could be better. 2/20 - 2/22 was Harmony last month. It was horrible. Ignore the one with the 12.7 upload. That was the free Wi-Fi at Mambo Beach which was also Starlink. Royal has some work to do. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akcruz Posted March 13, 2023 #1085 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Beautiful day on Coco Cay, we are here with Explorer, sounds like they have more college spring breakers onboard. Lagoon pool was full of them. We found a good spot on south beach and relaxed. Stopped by the pool on the way back to the ship, the buffet and Captain Jack's for a little music. A few drinks may have been consumed along the way. A few pics, didn't take too many. Welcome to Coco Cay South beach floating bar and new table, made it out there for a drink. Heading back 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna have to sneak in one of those when DW isn't looking. 🤫She's restricting me to mocktails and 1/2 glass of wine at dinner, maybe. As long as my gout doesn't flair up I should be ok. No beer though.☹️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely loses the sleek lines of the ship when taking a photo of the ship from the side. Silly looking as high as it is.

Order a "sidecar" .. they are delicious. I still believe the zacapa or rum old fashioned belongs on the list too. Rum Old Fashioned is on there.

Have you noticed much noise in your cabin? Yes, but didn't start until after breakfast. Generally no noise at night 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure the activities staff got the memo that MH is DL from 5-8 as they have schedule overlap. It actually works well for the Diamond and up as the concierge won't let crowds in until 8pm So the venue is relatively empty at that time, no need to stake out seats. Tonight is Bon Jovi cover band at 8pm, should be a minor riot outside the locked doors. We'll be inside😁 FWIW, the schedule is conflicting, they might not be performing till 10:30. Who knows Oh nice, you guys get Slippery When Wet, they are one of the best Bon Jovi cover bands. In fact, in summer of 2019 when Jon Bon Jovi himself did a cruise for fans (out of Barcelona), he brought them along. Total blast. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATG Posted March 13, 2023 #1100 Share Posted March 13, 2023 @John&LaLa John - someone mentioned the parking garage for Oasis was full yesterday. Did you have any trouble getting in? What time did you get there? We’re debating drive or fly for our next Oasis cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
