Rare SteelCityCruiser10 Posted February 23 Author #206 Share Posted February 23 Today is a sea day. Probably pool deck for majority of the day is my guess. I’m not tied down to any plans. Thinking about Wake brunch. Pink Agave for dinner tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare SteelCityCruiser10 Posted February 23 Author #210 Share Posted February 23 Follow up re: Scarlet Night…we did end up missing the scarlet night pool party and after party. EV filled us up, long day. Food coma required rest. 😂 I’m not mad about it. 😀 We got part of the experience earlier in the evening. To see what it’s all about, I would have liked to see at least part of it but it just wasn’t happening. We are not dancing people but I think it may have been fun to hang out and people watch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare SteelCityCruiser10 Posted February 23 Author #212 Share Posted February 23 So to get sunrise pics I may or may not have broke into Richard’s Rooftop in order to get the pics😜 Depends who’s asking. I will deny it. 😂 Sunrise was full forward this morning and there not a way to get to the front of the ship like on RC’s helipad area on many of those ships. Richard’s Rooftop is the suites only area. There was another woman in there who tipped me off that access could be had pretty easily. Not a single person was in there so I figured I wasn’t hurting anything. I haven’t been sent to the brig yet. That’s a good sign. With all that here’s some illegal pics of Richard’s Rooftop 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SteelCityCruiser10 Posted February 23 Author #213 Share Posted February 23 Random lounge spots…. No shortage of these. Lots of nooks & crannies on the ship. Not as open as I’m used to on RC. The different spaces feel very compartmentalized. It’s not a bad thing just different from what my normal had been. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SteelCityCruiser10 Posted February 23 Author #214 Share Posted February 23 (edited) At the pool the crew sets up each spot every morning with the loungers and a towel. In between the 2 pools there a huge towel station that’s help yourself. No worries about checking out towels and wondering if you’re going to get some random charge for a pool towel not being returned.

Ocean Boy Posted February 23 #215 Share Posted February 23 So far would you say that you are content to be on a VV ship and not an RCI ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, absolutely! I’d book VV again without a second thought depending on price/intinerary etc that suits us. I wish they had a ship in NY TBH so we could drive to port. No kids is fantastic & included food is good and better quality. The vibe is very laid back during the day and can get wild at night if you go to the parties etc but those are easily avoided if you’re not into it. Casino is on the small side but non smoking atmosphere is 1000% better however much worse for the wallet 😂 It’s been very non- judgmental. No scowls from fellow passengers if you’re not dressed in a tux for dinner or have shorts on at dinner. It’s refreshing not having a CD announcement or sales pitch all the time. Captain made announcement 1 time so far I think. So far, I do miss the way RC puts the venues at the top of each elevator and has the 3D ship model showing “you are here” on podiums throughout the ships. That would help with navigation confusion. The labeling of port and starboard side cabins A and Z is super easy to follow and better i think. Im still gathering experiences and thoughts etc but so far that’s how I’m feeling about it. PS I am sooo wishing this was an 8 nighter and not a 4 nighter ☹️ 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were overwhelmed with exploring and well …drinking 🍻 😂 Might try to walk up and hope others don’t show up for their reservation Edited February 23 by SteelCityCruiser10 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
