Coneyraven and BillOH, do not look below. You're not going to like it.

 

A yinzer a few tables away brought his own napkin to Chops.

 

 

I warned you guys.

In case anyone doesn't know what a yinzer is:

Oh yeah, I forgot about the food.

 

Mushroom soup, of course.

 

 

Dungeness crab and shrimp cake.

 

[Yorkvillain]

9 oz. filet, medium rare before the reduction sauce arrived.

 

 

Mushrooms, creamed spinach, truffled corn

 

 

And Courtney's sundae.

Casino = ghost town

 

I can't imagine how much $$$ this Virginia law is costing Royal.

Maybe Virginia is spiteful since RCI stopped offering cruises out of Norfolk.

Thanks for the awesome review! Very entertaining as usual. I'm really looking forward to the September cruise. All of you guys together should make for a great week here on cruise critic :)

Heading back to Chops tonight for our final dinner of the trip. However I did do a driveby to check out what they had in the Windjammer tonight. The huge oversized pan of nachos definitely caught my eye. That woman's arm is not one of the toppings though.

 

Yum...Taco Bell night in the Jammer.

Viking Crown - the last remaining stragglers who are not ready to have their vacation come to an end.

Hurry up already. I'm camping outside the port*. It's our turn.

 

* 15 minutes outside the port in a hotel with a beautiful view of the Inner Harbor.

Yorkviilain, thanks for being entertaining, informative, and keeping me busy until I get on her TODAY!

[coneyraven]

Tim, thanks for the fantastic and fun review. I'm a bit disappointed at the lack of carny food this time.

 

[A&L_Ont]

Thanks Tim and Courtney for bringing us on this cruise adventure. I have thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thanks to Courtney for not throwing Tim and/or Tim's phone overboard, and allowing us all to enjoy this review.

[Mcdonaldbam]

Thanks for the adventure Yorkvillian. Looking forward to seeing your next review.

If you only saw Schooner Bar photos - one might think that the Vision & Radiance classes were the newest and most innovative ships.

 

 

IMHO the Radiance class Schooner Bars have the BEST layout. Including ocean view and wraparound bar seating. Always one of the most hopping spots on Radiance Class. I can't recall what Vision class has and may have to look it up.

Tim,

Spectacular job. This was a VERY entertaining review. Now where is that "Go Fund Me" link???

[Yorkvillain]

Thanks everyone for following along and for all the great comments. I'll have some more crab cakes photos later on after our lunch at G&M Restaurant and then some final thoughts tomorrow or Saturday. Thanks again!

 

[CapitalKyle]

Thanks again for the awesome review, safe travels home!

Just overheard a guy in the Windjammer say: "I want to go on the Harmony because they have waverunners on that ship".

I mean I've seen a few run to recover their bathing suit from the FR, so perhaps that is the confusion.
