Rare Lois R Posted April 2, 2013 #226 Share Posted April 2, 2013 That must be it...didn't know the name of it. :o Does the ship provide it or do they bring their own? I just kept our's in my purse on our last cruise. Hi, yes, lanyard. I don't really like them. I prefer keeping mine in a pocket or in the evenings I use a small cross body bag or clutch.

gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #227 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Totally understand...I'll try and figure it out...I think I was counting from the bottom and it didn't look very high up. :confused: That is correct, you're on the second floor once the balconies start. It is not too high, but it is a great location on the ship, I am sure you will be very happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquaseeker Posted April 2, 2013 #229 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Okay Gambee you just killed me with the kids in the backyard on the Flowrider. That was crazy! I took my son to the beach all the time to body board & surf when he was growing up. How great would it be to have all the kids in your backyard having fun where you can keep an eye on them. Very very cool. I got on flowriders website & for pricing they said more than a Ferrari & less than a private plane. Hah out of my price range. Seriously fantastic video & snaps. I can hardly wait for what is coming next from you. Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Gambee...I'll print up the deck plan for deck 7...maybe I can figure it out better on there. I picked that cabin because of the location...seems pretty central to me.

gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #235 Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) Ok lets keep on going, After sailaway it was time to finally try the Molecular bar, I will briefly go over some information here about that bar. My overall experience here just ok, let me explain why. The bar did not measure up to the maritini bar in entertainment value at all, I think the main reason is because of the large amount of time required to make each drink. The bartenders are too focused on the drink, there is one main bartender and on that comes in at peaks times. Now don't get me wrong they are great bartenders, but they might lack a little in entertainment. In addition to that I found most drinks to be just ok, I did try them all and I was only impressed with a few of them. Most drink are fairly weak, but then again I tend to drink very strong drinks, although even my mom said they were weak. I also felt really bad for them because about every 5 minutes you have someone coming and asking for a vodka tonic, beer, gin ect. You can tell that they are over that, but something tells me that it comes with the territory. I must of heard that phrase "we only serve molecular drinks" about a thousand times… Anyway here they go, Here they are making 2 coming up roses Edited April 2, 2013 by gambee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #237 Share Posted April 2, 2013 After that we took our drinks up to our rooms to unpack and get ready for dinner, when I got there I found a little note saying that my TA had added $75 to our account. I thought I lost that money during the change of package, it was a welcomed changed =) and I accepted it gracefully. Mom proceeded to disaffect the room with the clorox wipes, too bad gambee had already touched everything in the room :rolleyes:, lol. I sat in the balcony and sipped both drinks in the meantime, I also played a little with the camera and these were the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #238 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I used one of the wipes to clean the railing in the balcony, it was so windy that it got dirty very fast. This would become something I did every few hours throughout our cruise (weather). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #239 Share Posted April 2, 2013 After sometime we decided to head down for dinner, today we had no reservations so we decided to go the Grand Cuvee MDR. I took a few pictures on the way to the MDR, Some of the artwork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #240 Share Posted April 2, 2013 The Grand Foyer Here is a short video of some music playing there. It was a pretty cool DJ, just wished I saw more of him and less of the other groups during our cruise. This video was taken a few hours after the the pictures.

gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #242 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I will briefly talk about the MDR is Silhouette here. We found the food there to be overall very good and always arriving hot to the table. Service matched up and very prompt as well, maybe the best we seen on a cruise ship. It is funny how experiences vary, another CC couple had the worst service in MDR ever, they had to get change from sections. Fortunately that was not out case. I ordered a dirty maritini and mom got a mojito, My mushrooms stuffed with crab, very hot and very tasty And moms mushroom soup, very nice as well.

gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #243 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I loved the garlic butter, mom stuck to the regular one. I love how this picture came out! I got the NY steak from the classic menu, it was GREAT!!!! And our server told my mom to get the prime rib instead, I liked mine better and something tells me she did to. There was nothing wrong with it, but mine was just better. I also ordered another martini and got this. Now mind you if I was paying for this I would be pretty upset, they olives are supposed to be a garnish and not the main ingredient of the maritini.

gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #244 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I got a cappuccino Creppe, it was good, nice and warm. creme brulle, just ok, nothing to write home about. Overall a great dinner, we were both very happy. The service was very fast but rather impersonal, which is fine by me, but some folks look into socializing with the server. The system is a bit complicated because when the server wanted my card to pay for the cappuccino was at the same time that the cocktail server had our cards. They should have a more centralized system and charge everything at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gambee Posted April 2, 2013 Author #246 Share Posted April 2, 2013 After dinner we went to the shops and I got a bunch of pictures of the items there for sale. This might bore some, but others might find it useful. I am trying to appeal to a wide range of viewers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
