I’ll be leaving a little something in the Joker card room bookshelves when I get off. hopefully you find it first! enjoy your trip Hey there! I just got on board and went straight there. A handful of people already raided the bookshelf. Could t find anything they stood out. I tried. 😂 1 hour ago, Tennessee Rose said: I'm thrilled to be "traveling" with you all virtually! A friend and I cruised to Alaska several years ago, on CCL Legend (my very favorite ship so far; love, love the layout; easy to get around). I think Miracle is the same class of ship as Legend. We also cruised during this exact time frame also --- so you should be able to see a bit of fall color! The Alaskan scenery is the star of these cruises, in my opinion. Enjoy! Welcome along to the virtual trip! We’re now on board! the spirit class is totally my favorite. I love the design of the miracle already. ooh Alaska in fall sounds wondrous. It’s going to be rainy. I’m hoping to enjoy it anyways and the break from the heat! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

variable283 Posted September 5, 2022 #28 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Or alternatively if no duck I left a note inside this book, seemed fitting for your trip. Book was on the left side bookshelf when I left the ship. Hope I spelled your name correctly, may have had a couple last night lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loving the train ride. DW would enjoy being able to do that to ports in FL. Perfect time to head to Alaska, IMO. So will follow along. Yes! I love the train!!! 5 minutes ago, variable283 said: Right hand side look behind the books here The staff just took over the library so I’ll have to look again!

Rare ashkir Posted September 5, 2022 Author #30 Share Posted September 5, 2022 We’re all on board. The wheelchair process took a while. There are a lot of people who think it is a shortcut and we’re complaining they could’ve walked faster. The staff member bless his heart told them “if you can walk the stairs then you don’t need a chair” 😂😂 the ship is gorgeous so far. I went straight to Java blue. The library is closed for a private function now. Looks like several officers. my friend already is crushing on one. 😂 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ashkir Posted September 6, 2022 Author #35 Share Posted September 6, 2022 We’re now dining! We do anytime dining so we’re not on a set schedule. Sadly one of our members cannot use the Hub app as she forgot her Apple password so she can’t download. So she’s gonna meet up with another one in our party and they’ll book for her. we all got reservations for 6pm to the Nick & Nora steakhouse on the 11th (day 7). This is the fjord day. It should be fabulous. in the main dining hall they no longer have straws. The ladies are happy they have a Filipino waiter and they’re all speaking in Tagalog. 😀 we got an amazing aft table for anytime dining this time we have a beautiful view of California behind us as we leave. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ashkir Posted September 6, 2022 Author #36 Share Posted September 6, 2022 First appetizer for me is the vegetarian lasagna. Never seen it before on the menu. It’s so good!!! Four of us ordered calimari (not me) and they all hated it. The panorama was much better according to them. They said it taste like boxed and microwaved calimari. The last got a salad and loved it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ashkir Posted September 6, 2022 Author #37 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Main entree is here. I got the Indian special that is vegetarian. The aloo is spicy and perfect! The rice is perfect and everything tasted so amazing. everyone else got salmon and they stated it is perfect!!! I might ask for my rice. One of the ladies stole it 🙃 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ashkir Posted September 6, 2022 Author #40 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Big news! We saw several whales! They were far off but we saw their water squirts in the air! So amazing! I couldn’t get it on video sadly. This is my first gold sailing. I got a nice pin today welcoming me to the gold club! I guessed at the Art club there was a Thomas Kincaid painting. Simply gorgeous. We had to guess the price. I guessed $1850! Virtual cruisers what’s your guess? I got my first stamp on my art event passport. Has anyone done this? Do you feel it’d worth doing? Do the paintings sell for a lot? My walls are bare but I don’t have a lot of money 😂 if you’ve done this. How’s the scavenger hunt? How’s the final price?

Waste of time and a rip off. There's lots of bad stories over the years here on CC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re not planning to buy a painting and have some free time, there’s no harm in attending the art events. I’ve never attended, but my SO attended many and has a small free piece of art that he admires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
