Rare EngIceDave Posted April 15, 2023 Author #160 Share Posted April 15, 2023 ORANGE JUICE If you want REAL OJ, not the OJ mix, only place to get is Java Blue coffee, at $9.44 (incl sec fee?) and is NOT part of the Cheers package. Your OJ based mixed drinks use the funky oj mix. I asked. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be two sets of locker rooms, one set on Deck 9 near the Thermal suite, but also on Deck 10 near the Fitness Center. It's that locker room where the deck plans indicate a free sauna.

SDPadreFan Posted April 15, 2023 #172 Share Posted April 15, 2023 With regard to the lines in the ocean you mentioned, most likely it is caused by varying levels of phytoplankton or other substances that can absorb or refract light. Keep a sharp eye, some days the water will seem a smooth as glass. Also a great time to watch for flying fish. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destiny0315 Posted April 15, 2023 #173 Share Posted April 15, 2023 A visit to New Caledonia would be worth it just to see their colorful Pigeons and Doves compared to the standard grey Rock Pigeons so prevalent in cities around the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The New Caledonia pigeons almost look like parrots! How I would love to see a pigeon like that, rather than the "rats with wings" we have here in NY - lol! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
