If she has Whataburger spicy ketchup, she's related to Saint Greg. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted May 22, 2023 Author #704 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Back now from a little sun up on the pool deck... It's starting to get crowded, and you can definitely feel the additional passenger load. My first three cruises on the Scarlet Lady were wayyy below capacity, but I have a feeling that they're getting closer to being sold out now. I know that a lot of things yesterday didn't seem to go perfectly, and a lot of you probably think that I'm just a mean old curmudgeon, but today is a new day. I'm not going to let a few subpar margaritas and a gross overcharge on one drink ruin my week. I'm reset now, and I think that things are going to turn out alright. I'm trying to figure out what to get into for lunch now, but first I need to test drive that nice big shower... Not as big as mine back home, but massive compared to the solo and regular cabins... 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted May 22, 2023 Author #707 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I see there's a charge for my coffee this morning at The Grounds Club Two, but that's supposed to disappear due to the $10 credit for specialty coffee... Now, if only I can keep those adult beverage prices under control today......... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogladyrider Posted May 22, 2023 #709 Share Posted May 22, 2023 @sid_9169...that would drive me crazy having to keep tabs on charges and credits on my account, VV seems to make it more difficult than it needs to be all the way around or am I missing something? Wanted to ask you....you mention vivid dreams when sleeping, I am guessing, as a result from the sleeping aids you take. Do you get a restful nights sleep after all those vivid dreams? Could be part of the reason for your moods at times if you are not getting adequate sleep! Enjoy your NEW day! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted May 22, 2023 Author #710 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Here's a few better pictures of my shower, complete with rain head and one of those wand thingys. Also, they're awesome assortment of high quality shower gels and shampoo. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping to make it past ten o'clock tonight we'll see... Me too, Sid. We're booked for the Ship Show but it's a crap shoot whether we'll make it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted May 22, 2023 Author #714 Share Posted May 22, 2023 One thing I can tell you about the Scarlet Lady, is she's the smoothest sailing ship I've ever been on. I mean, you can't feel even the slightest bit of movement. Something about the hull design or whatever I guess... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VV seems gimmicky to me, and I've yet to read a review or seen pics that change my mind. Good thing we don't all like/dislike the same thing 🙂 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted May 22, 2023 Author #717 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I just took a trip back in time to the 1980s... Boy these bring back some memories! Funny thing is, that once the Nintendo came out, I quit playing video games altogether. We had the old Atari 2600 when I was a kid, but I grew out of playing games in my teens. I might play some here just for old times sake at some point... 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
