I think the medallions themselves are a genius idea but designing the entire guest experience around a poorly designed unreliable app is a head scratching choice to me I agree. The bones are all here to be incredibly great. It’s just the execution. Oh well, we’re off to a great start this morning and feeling fine! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted November 20, 2023 Author #635 Share Posted November 20, 2023 My tentative thoughts for today…. go float in the Retreat pool for a while, Alfredo’s for lunch, afternoon nap, party tonight. Champagne Waterfall at 6:30. There’s a production show, but I kinda wanna watch MNF at Mermaid’s Tail. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amandaw559 Posted November 20, 2023 #637 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Good morning, Thanks so much for doing these “Live-From” threads. I enjoy them so much. I am also a teacher (7th grade world history in California), so I “get it.” Just know we have the same things going on here in California that you do in Texas (especially the bathroom shenanigans). I’m usually a lurker, but I do enjoy cruising. We alternate cruises with trips to national parks in our travel trailer. I’m actually taking my kids on the 4 day Carnival Miracle cruise starting tomorrow (my husband is currently deployed). Your posts are really entertaining and I am very grateful for the time you spend documenting them. They give me something to look forward to. I was so bummed last night when you went dark due to internet issues. I’m so happy you’re back and I hope the rest of your vacation is wonderful!

My better half is from California, Rancho Santa Margarita but she went to Cal Poly and I’ve called in love with the central coast. Can’t wait to get back. enjoy the Miracle! Took an amazing 10 day to Alaska on her a couple summers ago, really made me fall in love with Spirit class - sailed Pride to Europe last summer, have Spirit booked next Thanksgiving. thanks for tagging along! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BohJang Posted November 20, 2023 #639 Share Posted November 20, 2023 It’s new day. Wi-Fi & medallion working well. I was bar hopping last night til 12:30. I just got up & all my peeps are still sleeping. I will be out & about shortly. I’m very excited because I saw my picture for the first time ever on CC! I feel like one of the cool kids. I’ll keep my eye out for that lobster shirt. 15 1 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted November 20, 2023 Author #642 Share Posted November 20, 2023 They reversed the charges on the four Beam bottles and didn’t charge me for the two bottles of Crown. So far. I’m not touching that. I feel like it’s fair. 11 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TxTeach79 Posted November 20, 2023 Author #643 Share Posted November 20, 2023 For the record, Princess only places a $20 hold on your card on file. Carnival does $200. Most of the time. I think they randomly did $100 once. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that GS place. 24 gold margarita was excellent. I’m gonna go around today & try all the ones that were closed yesterday. I’m looking for that Alchemy vibe but don’t know if it will be found on this ship 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted November 20, 2023 Author #649 Share Posted November 20, 2023 If you followed along either or both of my Mardi Gras reviews, you may recall that while I LOVED the Serenity Deck up on 18, it was somehow built as a wind tunnel. Almost always windy. Well, Retreat is somehow WORSE. It’s gale force stuff. the pool has waves. It’s not like this at the main pool at all. It’s so bad all the furniture is tied down. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
