Bead Pirate

Two channels in the sports bar. Last two nights, one for hockey and one for NBA. Seating is VERY limited as the place is now packed with slot machines.

The point's carry over for the length of your cruise...

On Seashore now... Sunday was Glow, Monday was Rock, Tuesday was Gala/Silent Party, Wednesday is Sunshine Party (60,70,80), Thursday is Tropical, Friday is White Party, Saturday is Farewell.....

I am on the seashore doing the same thing now... The concierge in YC pointed out to me that my card covered the entire 14 days (see printed dates on card) and I would not be counted as a B2B. He encouraged me to go up to the pool deck and relax while everyone did the Turnaround....

If there is a priest traveling on your ship, they will offer Mass (usually at 7 AM) in one of the meeting rooms.

On one right now... I have only seen about 7 children on the cruise (mind you we do not have common interests so our paths do not cross often anyway). As you would expect Blu often has a line early in the evening. The elevators are a bit of a pian in the back of the edge ships (they are small). Tough to get a seat at Martini bar and Eden for shows. Lots of big groups taking seats early, etc. Food has been overall very good. Specialty dining is available (this seems to be a rather cost-conscious bunch on here this sailing).

Buk has been out in the officer line up (on deck 4 at dinner time) a couple of times this cruise (nesting in a nice little woven basket). Just walk up and say "Hello"

A chance for you to reserve all kinds of extra cost treatments at the Spa 🙂

4th announcement right now… Ship is operational, we are now at port waiting to be cleared. The technical issue was electrical and has been repaired.

Sitting in the martini bar right now (with about 600 others)… Bridge has made 3 announcements so far. There is indeed a technical issue (it has been identified and will be addressed as we overnight) yes, it is windy season (evidenced by the strong impact when the starboard tug got up to us) all of the impatient ones are being sent back this way as they head to the stairwells. The APP is in a constant update. will keep you advised if the facts as they are shared by the bridge.

I will be using an APP on the phone (only works in FL of course)...

On Beyond now and have eaten in Blue every night so far (today is day 5 of 12). We have ordered off both the Blu menu and the MDR menu repeatedly. Just walk in and they will seat you, as noted above folks are beasts of nature and tend to dine at the same time every night.

Going to let the wonderful butler staff pamper me while I lay on the pool deck and bet on some sports events.

App is working fine here on the Beyond 🙂

We are getting on the Seashore for a two-week B2B on the 14th. Can you let us know who the entertainers are in the Top Sail Lounge? Hoping one of them is Bernard 🙂 Thank You!
