I really liked that show. My favorites were the songs I grew up on. Boyz II Men, NSYNC, Backstreet Boys. But I also really loved their performance of Hey Jude. Always a Piano Bar classic that I didn't get this week and they did a great and high energy rendition of it. Would definitely recommend checking them out if they are on your sailing.

 

Giving my phone a little charge and then heading to dinner. It's lobster night, not that I will be ordering that. Always disappointing so I don't even try anymore.

Delicious. Just Delicious. 

 

The beef wellington was cooked perfectly and the puff pastry was nice and thick so as not to get soggy like happens so often with these pre plated wellingtons. This is something I only order when I've felt confident in the food. It is usually one of those things (like lobster) that the budget just isn't there to purchase good quality but this was fantastic. 

 

The sides were all yummy. The potato side was perfect and the carrots tasted like fresh cut carrots. I'd say the green beans were probably frozen. Highly recommend. I also appreciate I could order medium instead of just medium rare or well.

 

I wanted the risotto and I did find myself wishing I'd ordered that instead of the fish option but I was still really happy with the haddock. It had wonderful flavor and was another very very nice dish that I highly recommend. 

 

 I'm still wishing another fish dish was as good as that trout from two nights ago though. That was Devine. Still Highly recommend the haddock though. Very nice.

Late show was way more crowded than early show. In the grand foyer 20 minutes early, and before the packed theater let out and this was still the best seat I could get.

Baked Alaska was the only weak link in tonight's dinner. The cake was too dense and dried out. 

 

The roulade was more on theme of tonight's dinner, amazing. Really enjoyed it.

 

Overall dinner was excellent tonight. If the food was this quality every night, I would say it's on par with Cunard who brought this level every night, not just formal night. 

 

Service was excellent. I did get a please fill out my survey from my waiter. He was not pushy for a 10, but it was poorly timed while I was trying to enjoy my baked Alaska in peace.

Casino also closed due to being in port for medical. It's full price if I wanna keep going.

 

Holiday 🎶

Got some ppl dressed for the 80s. I can't imagine how much time was devoted to hair maintenance in the 80s. 

I've got some 80s moves, but not the hair. Never did. DH had a ponytail in his teens, but that was early 90s...

Good morning from Bimini. 

 

Last day of the cruise before returning to reality. Don't have any real plans except to chill out and hopefully be asleep early so that tomorrow morning hopefully won't hot quite as hard. 

 

I may take a quick walk around outside but probably will do my walking indoors today.

 

Gotta pack.

 

Other than that, nice chill day for me is the plan.

Not Craig, but I won't tell 🤭.

 

Put some champagne goggles on and close one eye I'm seeing you across the aisle though 😆.  You looked pretty disinterested in that picture, but when simply the best came on, her and not Craig hit the dance floor.

Baked Alaska is one of those things that doesn't quite seem to ever come out right. Carnival's is pretty good but I have to order two as the slice is razor thin.

 

Buy a wig, easier to maintain than all that hair 😆
