No idea how Laura does it. I thought it was odd you were cruising by yourself as well. I know when you cruise with Laura, you do a lot of separate things, but indeed...I could not cruise without Bucky. I would have to deal with huge crocodile tears if I left him behind anyway. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used it to buy Bucky a really nice pen at the gift shop. 😉 I really miss stories of your vaction rentals and pictures. ***** I apologize John, (I was not meaning to go off topic in your review) but had to reach Pat since I couldn't find her anywhere else. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John&LaLa Posted June 19, 2022 Author #328 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Coffee Chat with your host. Here a few tips on using an older espresso machine. You can kinda get black coffee from one. Basically it's just espresso and hot water😉 Cafe Creme button pushed twice will give you about 8 ounces. Slightly different because of the espresso creme on top. Give it a shot You can also push these beans to change strength of brew, and the bottom half of coffee cup to access the lower buttons. Std configuration Stronger coffee and lower menu activated You can also make it weaker by selecting one bean Using the button for doubles saves time when there is a line. It's also the only way to switch between steamed milk, and milk foam. As long as were in SL, how about some pictures. Outdoor area. Oddly enough, DL has a little nicer outdoor furniture 🤔 Day bed is nice, though. Morning snacks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ham, onion, tomatoes, and peppers Ditto to the view. Love, love Chops for breakfast on Freedom/Voyager ships. Not a fan of Chops location on Oasis class. 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not anymore. You can see the curve in the ceiling above. May try and see if Freedom changed as well.

Sorry about that. I have not posted on the "lockdown" thread for months now. Just have not been on lockdown at all, currently up here in Maine making the lobsters very nervous. 😉 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy cruzer Posted June 19, 2022 #332 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Not knowing if the UDP is truly unlimited is bothersome. At full price, if it is limited, then many would not find value in it and may just go with another plan or wait until onboard to negotiate pricing. Great pictures, noting some difference to Liberty of the Seas. Interesting. Thanks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's odd. I thought I ate quite a bit🤔 No idea what this stuff means, or how acurate some sensors under my feet are. My BMI is good, though. Pretty sure thats just weight compared with height. Metabolic age = 53. Not sure what that means but if memory serves me correctly, you must be aging backwards. Mr. Benjamin Button. 😄 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare John&LaLa Posted June 19, 2022 Author #341 Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) No luck on spotting Freedom's new exit doors, but plenty of other interesting things This is the former Suite sun deck. Much better now. Looks fun at night Freedom serms to have better scrubbers. She should, spent years installing them😉 Another Freedom difference. Actual balconies on the added deck 12 cabins. We stayed in 1890 when they were new Tiny balcony, and windy Guess they realized they were impractical.
