Saint Greg's Mardi Gras - LIVE - August 28th-September 4th 2021

[Saint Greg]

I snagged a late night snack to stash in the room again. This was turkey bacon Swiss from the Java blue

[Saint Greg]

Java blue has a lot of free food items like empanadas and sandwiches.

Norwegian is sailing fully vaxxed as well and they are yellow on the CDC site so they too have cases.  They were adamant they couldnt sail safely without 100% vaxxed.  

Remember,  vaccines don't necessarily protect you from getting the virus, just reducing symptoms to less severe and fewer hospitalizations and deaths for those with pre-morbid conditions or other health problems.

A

couple times I’ve had people ask me where something is at. I look and see they’re platinum and speak in terms they’ll understand. “Do you know you where Shaqs is?” Yeah it’s where the pizza place normally is. “Do you know where seafood shack is?” Yeah it’s where the red frog rum bar usually is.

Looks like a beautiful morning.

Manny got on the waiters bad last night. I don’t know if I should feel bad or not. I mean he was right but I’m sure that was embarrassing. When he was walking around a group complained they haven’t gotten their drinks. A few mins later he’s back on stage and notices the waiters are off to the side just watching The show. He called them out. Chased them into and back out of the service bar and got them taking drink orders. There were a lot of people needing drinks. There was a lot more to it than that this was probably 5 minutes of the show. It was funny. It always is. But I felt bad for them at the same time.

At sail away yesterday I never saw so many people out to watch before. Taking pictures, filming. Not just guests but crew as well. The closest would’ve been when I was on vista and we were next to Dream. But this was definitely on a different level.

Can you fool it by using a VPN?

The best I can do for now is the occasional game of bingo at the San Luis Rey Mission near my home. 

Small world. I knew we lived close to each other but didn’t realize it was that close. I live in the hills overlooking the mission. 😊

Sure, it sounds passive aggressive but someone had to crack the whip and if an assistant beverage manager in whites isn't around I'm glad Manny asked them to do their jobs.

My room is really pretty convenient to all of the entertainment. I have the forward room on lido. If I take that elevator down to 6 the comedy club is right there. Just past that the piano bar. Just past that grand central. And if I got off on 7 the main theater and casino are right there. None of that going from a show in the front of the ship to a comedy show in the back of the ship.

Do you by any chance know what hrs Java blue serves the sandwiches, calzones, etc? Thanks for taking the time to post all this

Firefox messed up. I’m trying edge

[Saint Greg]

Decided to try javablue breakfast. While I’m looking this lady (sort of) pushes herself between me and the glass and orders six sandwiches. The guy working the counter looks at me and asks what I want. I tell him I’ll wait.

 

 

[Saint Greg]

I went with what they call an omelet, bacon, cheddar. And a chocolate chip muffin.

 

 

[Saint Greg]

I brought it over to the grand scenic area to get away from the coffee crowd.

 

 

[Saint Greg]

Oh the food line is separate from the coffee line so there was no line for this.

Are these available on all ships that have JavaBlue or are they just testing it on MG?

I think they have cakes and donuts and muffins for purchase at the other ships but this is the first time I’ve seen all of these included sandwiches and stuff
