Pool day in OHIO for baby Zoey. It’s tough being a baby.

Awe Schucks! The cruise director just announced there will be a country “HoeDown” on the promenade tonight. Bring your boots. Next thing you know we will have a polka Party. Sea you

Reality Check. In 15 hours we have to go back to the real world. - No vacuum toilets - No cabin attendants - No one to make your beds - No delivery of drinks - No casino games - No concierge - No napkins placed on your lap - No afternoon watching the news. - No sorentos pizza. But. I miss our granddaughter Zoey and Lizzy the cat. Overwhelmed right now with things to do and places to see. Sea ya.

A new sign of the times IN OTHER WORDS. Towels un supervised by humans for extended periods will not be tolerated.

It is morning. CK totally packed for breakfast. Last day. Our plans for day. No plans. Enjoying cruising is what we will do. Sea ya.

A few closing thoughts. We were apprehensive about cruising out of Texas but everything fell into place. A few small bumps in the road but not to painful. Food was good. Sun was hot. No sun was very hot. Entertainment up to par except for modified version of Aqua theatre. Comedians were the funniest we saw in years. Tons of bartenders Pool chair hogs present but enough spots to enjoy the sun. Slots hot and cold. Did not observe the ship being over run by kids. Never saw one duck!!! More to come. Tomorrow our last sea day. And you did not have to ask people you met where they were from. Their boots gave them away. Good night.

Dessert. Chocolate crunch bar Apple pie ice creme

Lobster tails have returned in CK. I requested 2. Spouse 3.

Tonight’s menu.

All aboard was 4:30pm Gang way still down. Maybe get to see pier runners?

Remember. The talk about Allure is “rumors”. No one knows for sure what is going on. And finding the right person to inquire is impossible. So for now. Can only be happy and thrilled we are on Allure. However one change was noted with Aqua show. The airealist (sp) are gone. Just the water show. Crazy quest was a small turnout. About half of the cruisers attended than a full house pre-COVID. No luggage Valet to airports. You bring it you haul it. Sea you.

So for todays agenda since I cannot sit out on my balcony in my Victoria’s secrets ( not pretty) PJs due to interference and I do not want to be seen on any social media sites. I decided to set out on a mission to find out if any information is available on Florida 3/4 day cruises To begin with the general census is that they will be busier. Ok I proceed to inquire about the shows and how they can have enough seating for over 6,000 guests in 3/4 days. The response was as good as a gossipers rumor. And what I am hearing is ship talk. First of all RUMOR #1. No more mama Mia. It ran its course. And no other show replacements at this time. And besides in their contracts they are required to do only certain amount per week. Rumor #2 No more pre booking shows. A roped off line will be those willing to see a show wait there turn like Disney does first come first served. RUMOR #3 Mo more free press and fold on short cruises. That’s all I know. Sea you.

When you cruise the Caribbean in summer be prepared for : Hot weather Hot hot weather Hot hot hot you got it weather. Today. Pool day on board. Been to Cozumel many times. Not visiting. I really have been trying to eat drink and be merry with happy feet. Todays feet’s. No cankles. However yesterday when we got back from Costa Maya and walking the pier. (((((((BAMMMMM)))))))))))) feet’s we’re swollen. Today so far so good. Sea ya.

So as we are eating breakfast the spouse goes look at that I go I don’t see a ship. Sea ya.

I would be at the doors walking in about 20 min before show. Big section of saved suite seats.

Will do. She is a talker , and when she comes up for air I’ll tell her. Sea you

Our fantastic towel animal maker and greatest suite attendant. Sea ya.

No habla Espanoille (Spanish). But good question. I am signature from before April first. So earned that status. Working on keeping it. As far as investment of cash goes. Dunno. Keep playing off what the slot reals give me. RCI sent me a pamphlet last August’s for a free cruise in GS. we upgraded. Sea you.

Cafe promenade milk or cream contains.

Late walkers. Captain waited. No runners Sea ya.

Costa Maya. Pier long and hot. Shops plentiful Heat abundant Pier long an ((((HOT)))))) Back to our home away from home. Labeled appropriately This one exclusively for: Sea you.

Forgot to mention that the main pool and jacuzzi around them have been roped off and routine maintenance being done on them. (June 7-9) . More to follow. Sea you.

Just stating the facts.

Story time. So our house sitters vary the time they go to work out at the gym or go to the lake. It has been hot back home. Well. They follow directions to a T. Activate all the alarms window, door as well as motion sensors. And up to know all has been well. So today while they were at the lake. Lizzy wanted to meet the police and did what cats do. Jump on furniture. Yup Full blown house alarm. You know that had to scare Lizzy. So our home alarm system called all listed numbers. So when they got home they just reset the alarm with password and numbers. But. I’m the last few minutes, they went to the gym activated the alarm. And Lizzy did her thing. Security system called police They just got home took care of alarm. Always something. Sea ya.

Yesterday the beach bugs were on vacation. No NOSEEUMS, either on the shoreline or on the lounger area. The beach area was very organized and abundant picnic tables and loungers . My only concern was the poor options on the buffet. Kudos because they used bottled water from a bottle water company. Would I go back??? It is a possibility. The fee to go there as an excursion was reasonable.
