The review is awesome. Ordered some Motionease tonight for our upcoming cruise. Looking forward to the rest of your review.

 

Thank you for following along. More to come shortly.

 

The MotionEaze is a miracle. :D

So we found the Pizza place and we got a table. As I said before, it was dark inside. We ordered their special margaritas for us and a Pepsi for Melissa. Then we decided that Mike and I would get a pizza for us to share. His half would be the Goat cheese, salmon, and Onion and my half was veggie and goat cheese. Melissa got a regular personal size cheese pizza.

They were so much bigger than we thought they would be and they were fantastic. Being from NY, I like to say that I know good pizza. This has to have been one of the best we have ever had. That's right. We went all the way to Puerto Rico to go to CVS and to have pizza. LOL

 

The pizza....

After we ate as much as we could, we paid the bill and left the restaurant and turned left. Now, I have mentioned that we were hoping to find a restaurant that served Mofongo. We weren't able to.

And then we see this, maybe 2 doors away from where we just ate. Seriously? Oh well. Next time.

 

#MOFONGO

 

I also mentioned that today was January 6th which is also 3 Kings Day and there was going to be a big celebration with a parade that was going to stop traffic soon. So we quickly made our way back to the ship.

 

Some pictures on our way back. It was a much easier walk back than when we walked there. Not only was it down hill, but the humidity had lessened as well.

And our main courses "Seafood Extravaganza" for each of us. Melissa was a little creeped out by the head on shrimp. LOL

 

 

 

But we destroyed the platters. This is what was left when we were done.

 

 

 

I will be on the Breakaway in October. This will be the perfect restaurant to celebrate my BF birthday. He loves seafood!!

Then he will love it! The best seafood on the ship.

Thank you for your review. I will be sailing in March for my 49th wedding anniversary. I had mofungo in Puerto Rico. Do you have any good Puerto Rican restaurants where you live? Maybe you can go to Don Coqui in Astoria Queens. I go to the one in White Plains.

I haven't found any yet. They have Mofungo at Don Coqui? We're going to have to check it out. Thank you so much!

Awesome review so far. How was the lobster roll at ocean blu? Was it worth it? Somehow I missed this last time I was on breakaway!

[RN Cruiser1]

Great review, following it. Looking forward to our third time the Breakaway in May. We too have a 2 BR suite that we are sharing with friends, it is very helpful to see how the room looks made up and with the bunk down. Thank you!

Congratulations on conquering breast cancer with a smile on your face and a great attitude!

I have had it on the past two cruises and the lobster is delicious I am not a bread person so I usually use the little fork and just eat the meat first and then take a few bites of the bread. My husband loves sandwiches and bread and he thinks it is great, but a bit small.

Even though I'm not eating all of it, it's a must get.

Thanks so much! I always try to find the good in bad situations. I figure that instead of dwelling on the fast that I had a mastectomy, I can celebrate the fact that I now have great boobies for life from the reconstruction I had 2 weeks ago.

 

Enjoy your cruise!

No! What restaurant is that? We definitely would have tried to find it.

JoAnn, if I had a zillion dollars to send you in thanks for the MotionEaze recommendation I would. I tried it on my always carsick Beagle today on his ride to the vet and he did perfect. Normally he pukes all over his crate and drools all over even while inside at the vet. So much that I fear the other people waiting think he's rabid or something because it's so nasty.

 

I put the drops on his skin just inside his ear (it was easiest to get to the skin there because he's a hyper freak too) and he started to drool as he realized he was going in the car. He whined and yowled for the ride and I was afraid of what I'd find when I opened the back door of the SUV up, but it was pristine. No ropes of drool, no piles of dog puke. He didn't drool inside the vet's at all and did just as perfect on the way home. We had tried every other suggestion and nothing ever helped. I made sure to tell the Vet and the tech about our success so hopefully if they have other carsick patients they can pass it on. Thank you, thank you, thank you for mentioning your carsick dog and seasick daughter and this product.

You are so welcome! I am very happy that I was able to help.

It also helps if you're feeling nauseous from drinking too much. :D

 

I will hopefully be able to work on my review a little more tomorrow. It's been a hectic week since I'm getting back to my normal self more and more. Today I worked, took my daughter to karate, and then resumed my duties on the PTA board of directors (a 2 hour meeting tonight). Tomorrow is not as busy. Thank goodness.

Thank you so much for your kind words.

 

More review coming up!

We got back onboard the ship and weren't sure what to do tonight. So we decided to wander around a bit. Then I noticed the touchscreen monitors that we near the elevators were more than just advertisements and a means for making dinner reservations.

 

This is what I mean and you can see what I saw as I went through different screens.
