We arrived at the ferry around 9:30 am this morning so we had some time to kill before the 10am ferry left for St. John. I've been sober for over 48 hours so what do you think I did to kill some time?

However I was having a hard time deciding what to order. Hmmm. Tough call.

May I suggest securing your toothbrushes in the safe as a precaution...

I know! I'll have a Corona! Duhhhhh.

Good idea. Now I just have to remember to lock it.

From last night: another trivia event and another trivia defeat. This time at Michael Jackson trivia.

 

The team name was a little tribute to Dr. Huxtable.

 

You would have won this if you had Lee on your team.:)

You're right.

 

The songs were a little harder than what we are used to on Royal.

We hadn't eaten yet so we decided to hit the snack bar first at Trunk Bay Beach.

 

 

 

 

Oh wow. I always wanted to try a Corona that didn't have an overpowering R.

 

 

 

 

We decided to go healthy and just have a salad with fat free dressing and some fruit on the side.

Beautiful day at St. John. It could have been a little warmer but I'm not complaining.

We grabbed the 3pm ferry back to St. Thomas. Del Rio kept an eye on our ferry tickets while we swam.

 

 

 

 

Carnival's newest and biggest ship was anchored at St. John today. Apparently it is so big that it can't fit at any pier. Check her out, she's a beauty:

Awesome review!! Wow the beach pics are gorgeous! And the Carnival ship totally amazing.[emoji1]

[Yorkvillain]

I just tried periscoping sailaway from St Thomas. The connection is still too poor.

What's the temperature in St Thomas today?

Courtney just scored an NCL beer koozie at the "This or That" trivia game.

 

 

 

 

Fits like a glove around my corona.

Thanks! I heard they are adding water slides to the upper decks.

I would guess that it was low 80's F today.

Question for TheDougOut:

 

(Courtney, skip over this post when you read this thread).

 

Doug, when you were on the Escape a few weeks ago, were the waitresses in the Brewhouse - uh how do we say this, umm, easy on the eyes?

 

Just curious.

I don't know about that, but the Miss Escape Runner-up Doug was chatting up at 1 am certainly was. :cool:

Yorkvillain (or Doug),

 

I was reading a thread on wine tastings and remembered a beer tasting last year on the Jewel. Do you see any sort of beer tasting on the Escape? Seems like the perfect place for one.

[Yorkvillain]

12 out of 20 was no good at Movie Tunes Trivia. 16 took home the free water bottles.

I'm going to punt this one over to Doug. I'll answer any Corona questions that you have. [emoji3]
