As i have said before I can understand their having Family Hours in cold weather itineraries but it makes little / no sense to me why they would have it on this cruise. They probably have to sign up in preparation for the upcoming Alaska cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted April 24, 2023 Author #255 Share Posted April 24, 2023 We had lunch at Sushi on 5 and enjoyed it. I have found a new favorite cool and refreshing drink that may replace the sidecar. It is the Gingertini from Sushi on 5. My DW ordered the chicken gyoza and I ordered the sashimi salad for mine for our mains shr ordered the omakase sushi (yes it comes with 4 pieces) and I had the spicy tuna & shrimp tempura roll we the shared a California roll once again we hraved the massed and went yo OVC for ice cream and took it back to the room. I have no clue what one needs to do to find inside seating at OVC. Maybe someone else can enlighten us. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Fly and Sail Posted April 24, 2023 #257 Share Posted April 24, 2023 I enjoyed that bird park today, quite well done and many animals. You would pay considerable money as entry fee in other destinations for this, here you just had to get off the ship. Taxis wanted $20 to go to old town. I declined and got an UBER for $2.50. Little stroll and a Starbucks in the Old Town then back to the port (again with UBER) for a bit more peacock watching. Oh and… as hot as it is today plus this being an Industrial port, you couldn’t pay me to get on the helipad today. Must be hotter than a frying pan!

He’s going to be making quite a few presentations as the cruise progresses and we are planning to attend a few of yhem. For now we are relaxing after lunch in the Retreat and have the lounge all to ourselves Looks like a great lecture topic. My granson would be thrilled..

As you can see we used the ‘seats’ at the end of the bed to form a table. It worked but the fruit plate had to be set aside. Maybe later we’ll try the table on the balcony.

I was hoping that was not how it was served as we did not like it the last time it was served that way.

Yes she is Japanese and she says it’s ‘not bad’ and for her that’s a compliment. She measures it by the sushi in Japan which she says nothing outside Japan can match.

I guess I could do something like a California Roll which isn’t really Japanese anyway so no damage can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The taste was good, Presentation struck me as odd. I’m not a big fan of using common household items as container to serve food in a fine dining environment. Next they’ll hand you a pair of gas cans at the Martini Bar. Not that I’d object to a 2 gal Espresso Martini. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A means Average and B means Below Average. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that’s too college dorm to you, cafe Al Bacio serves to-go iced cocktail in a paper cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miched Posted April 24, 2023 #272 Share Posted April 24, 2023 5 hours ago, DaKahuna said: Well that was a first! My wife and I were relaxing on our balcony and our stateroom attendant finished cleaning the room and stepped out to make sure we did not need anything. We assured him that everything was great. He left and we continued to talk to each other. My wife got up to get something from the room only to find the balcony door locked. Apparently out stateroom attendant had locked it from force of habit when he closed the door after speaking to us. Fortunately we are on the starboard side and I was able to shout and get the attention of a crew member on the dock who contacted our stateroom attendant. A very embarrassed young man came and let us back into the room! The first time we were on a M class we locked our selves out. It is easy to do by pulling on the handle inside instead of using that little notch on the outside to close the door. It is a bad design. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DaKahuna Posted April 24, 2023 Author #274 Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) Oh, that brings up a question. If this happened at sea, how would you contact anyone to let them know? The more I thought of that the more I kept coming back to ..I would post something here and hope my fellow passengers who were following along would call someone for us. How were you able to get back into your room? Edited April 24, 2023 by DaKahuna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
