So that means I can have my medium rare sirloin steak, with a double portion of french fries (or chips in our house) at every meal, should I so wish ?

I believe there is some root vegetable puree hiding underneath the roast potato, which strangely is hexagonal shaped!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare carlanthony24 Posted March 23, 2023 Author #61 Share Posted March 23, 2023 (edited) Clocks advanced 1hr at 2am after leaving Madeira we are now 1hr ahead of the uk GMT+1 Sea state became moderate throughout the night and into the next day highs of 20 degrees with a breeze. Glass House for dinner with a colleague I use to work with. Popcorn chicken, chicken pate for starters. Mains included Haddock & chips, 8oz steak, pork & bubble squeak and pulled beef sliders. Plenty to eat compared to last time portions were bigger. Entertainment for the evening was Headliners Theatre Company with Centre stage. Today we are in Cadiz arrival of 7am all on board for 7:30pm departing 8pm. No shuttle bus in operation since it’s only a short walk into the centre. We have been to Cadiz a lot but took a walk into town and went for a drink at one of bars. Weather in Cadiz sunny and no cloud 16 degrees highs of 20 feels way hotter than that. An announcement was made yesterday evening by the Captain through the whole ship including cabins to announce that during our call they need to test the white life crafts a requirement by law. From 11:30am till roughly 1pm the ship will then leave the berth and turn to face the opposite direction during this time no one can leave or enter the ship. We have elected to stay on till we get back to port. Royal Caribbean ship and Costa ship in dry dock and not every day you see a submarine docked.

I thought that was a Radiance class RC ship when we were in there last month, but when I checked the location of all 4 ships, they appeared to all be in service, maybe the data was incorrect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonky Posted March 23, 2023 #64 Share Posted March 23, 2023 If you happen to pass nearby could you have a look at the swimming pool by the retreat? It, and the jacuzzi by it were in a pretty dire state in December. The swim flow machine thingy (that’s the technical term) wasn’t working either.
