What does that mean? 

 

Thanks for doing this live review! I’m loving it! 🙂

Charge $1000 to my room account; play 50 spins on slots; $2 per spin (aka: 100 points)

rinse and repeat.

Also here was today’s FunTimes since someone asked for them all.

I also forgot to post my dinner pics

i had the “chicken tenders” (aka: two small morsels of grilled chicken), the Honey Glazed Pork Loin (only two of the three medallions), and of course the Indian Vegetarian dish

Apprenrly not a lot of people got off today..went up to Lido (as I slept in and it’s the only damn place open to eat for an hour) and it’s STUPIDLY crowded!

also; Shirt-of-the-day

Is Bolt up and running? Thanks!

It’s the Windows Blue Screen Of Death

So I slept in today and didn’t get off the ship (been here a few times and not impressed with it and it’s always too damn humid here in the summer!)

I also had to WorkFromShip today.

just wrapped up some work stuff and we’re about to sail-away.

tonight is comped steakhouse and also the Mardi Gras Parade and Love & Marriage show.

Here’s the port

The “Piloto” coming to take us out 

[KarmaCruisers]

Relaxed in the room until now.

dinner time..I was mixed up; tonight is Rudi’s

[KarmaCruisers]

I’ll be honest, it smells “fishy” in here..which is a bad sign..

[KarmaCruisers]

Also this is a REALLY tiny spot..almost like it was split off from something else to make this 

[lazydayz]

I didn't find Rudi's small, but rather oddly laid out.  I don't like that wrap-around bench and all of those two tops right next to each other.  We refuse those tables and get a corner one on the much smaller bench at the back of Rudi's.  This gives us an opportunity to actually talk to each other without interrupting other conversations going on around us.  

 

I absolutely loved the Chilean Sea Bass at Rudi's.  Hope you give it a chance.  After all, it's free, you didn't have to check in on the app, and you aren't dining in room with a thousand other people.

Maybe it was the odd layout 

i also didn’t see the sea bass on the menu!

I had the mixed greens, seared shrimp and crab stuffed lobster.

overall I’d give it a 5/10..Catch on Princess CRUSHES this. My lobster was a spiny lobster and mushy. (Literally was the quality of what you get in the MDR)

I was disappointed. Tomorrow night at the steakhouse I’ll order the Dover Sole (and compare it to the Dover Sole at Catch)

Fun times from today

I agree with you bout the lobster at Rudi's on Mardi Gras.  The one I got in the MDR on elegant night was far superior to the one I paid for at Rudi's.

Read on the page we can’t mention there was a brawl on your ship last night by the pizza place. Heard anything?

HEARD about it is all; I stay away from Gen-Pop..That surprises me for an 8-day..but then it doesn’t for a carribean Carnival cruise.

But yeah; if I hadn’t heard about it, I wouldn’t have known, as I said.

Slept in a bit today (didn’t port until 10:30)

woke up at 11 and got cleaned up, packed up some (free) laundry and went to buffet for lunch.

to my great surprise they had a good Turkey carving, and I got some stir fry veggies too

I’m going to go try to find the Umbrella street and also get some mofungo.

Get off the ship… take a left. Go down past the food trucks. One block up to Fortaleza. Can’t miss it.
