[Sargent_Schultz]

And I think that is a about it for Day 1!

[crusinpsychRN]

Thank you. I may at some point give photography a shot. Maybe sooner rather than later. I haven't been back to work this year and already hate my job again. :eek:

 

Deanie's is a great value and good, too!

 

 

What DO you do? With your writing talent, sense of humor and photgraphy I'd read anything you wrote.

[absolutely brilliant]

 

 

 

 

Getting set u for a private tasting

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Those drinks look amazing! Do they have that bar menu on all the ships?

Thank you. After Wednesday, a whole lot less. My background is kind of, sort of, similar to Kokomo_Man's and he apparently has transitioned to writing.

 

Semi-retired doing aerospace contract work, so writing about cruising would be logical. ;) I recall going into engineering it the first place because there were no English classes required. :p

Nope. Only on ships that have received Fun Ship 2.0 upgrades, specifically an Alchemy Bar. Instead of ordering from the menu, you can just tell them what flavors you like and they will concoct a "prescription" cocktail for you.

Day 2 -

 

Hey, found an omelette station picture

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, Guy's isn't open for breakfast, so you'll have to make do with something else.

 

 

 

 

Blue Iguana Cantina is open for breakfast, and I never saw much of a line there or anywhere else, ever.

 

 

I did a leisurely stroll aground the Cantina, taking pictures. They kept trying to get me to take a burrito instead.

I decided to settle for an arepas as a pre-breakfast snack.

My mission was to end up at the Punchliner Brunch on this first sea day, but did some walking first.

 

I was curious if the wake had changed, or the name of the ship, with Fun Ship 2.0

 

 

 

 

 

before:

 

 

 

 

 

 

it had not in either case.

Didn't notice any chair hogs

 

 

 

 

 

[Sargent_Schultz]

Not much activity at volleyball or basketball

Thank you :)

Sun Pool area, it must have been pool towel animal day, also

There are a couple of ping pong tables - one with a convenient bar nearby (only open on sea days)

When I was in college, slide rules had an entirely different meaning.

On our Conquest cruise in 2011, we had a balcony on the Spa deck. While these are a little larger (allegedly), I didn't like that there was no roof to keep weather or prying eyes out. Sometimes people would even try to start conversations.

 

[Almost Packed]

ohhhhh, i cannot wait to get back on this ship!!!!! more more more!

 

i usually book our cabins at that aft of the ship...less traffic. but this time we have ds with us who will be in camp and it's more convenient to be fwd. i just hope our balcony misses the life boats. any pics looking down at those?

 

thanks again for the great review.
