Sometimes in a mirage you can see an Oasis.  In case I saw an Allure.

I hope that chef isn't cooking the meals.  😢

 

P.S.  The grapes I just ate at home look better than your grapes.

The cruise compass URL on board has been acting up.  Then I discovered day 3 had been added to the day 2 compass.  On other ships each day was by itself. 

 

So I deleted the day 2 pages and the extra pages that were duplicate from day 1 and 2 PDFs to make a clean day 3 cruise compass.

I got this too, but not sure why. I still have the chocolate strawberries I’m not eating

True to Vernon's word he has been sending my CAS wines to my new cabin. 

 

Two screw top wines and a corkscrew.

RE: Samba Grill, do they serve any sides?  I only see meats on their menu.. Never been there before but looking at Allure.

We went to Samba on Allure in November and it was awesome! Go before all the Sambas disappear.

Last week I moved cabins to the same category when another interior became available.  My old interior cabin was connecting to another cabin, my new interior cabin is not.  Same category cabin so no fare difference.

Looked good but dh doesn't usually eat meat when we travel as we keep kosher at home.  No problem as there's plenty to eat on board.

Here's some Samba pics.  It was good but so much food.

[twangster]

CAS beverage count on the paper receipt.

Nice chat with Captain Rumen just now.

 

He was on the Allure and Symphony start up teams and did two contracts as Allure's Captain.  He was on the bridge when she sailed past earlier today.  He loves Oasis class but equally loves Radiance and her ability to get into smaller ports where Oasis class can't go.  Radiance, also with azipods is very sporty and nimble to maneuver. 

 

Weather looking good through Panama as much as an extended weather forecast in the Caribbean can be trusted. 

 

He is very personable and friendly.

Chops for dinner...

 

 

Pretzel bread.  Yum.

[twangster]

Chops is hopping.  Shortly after I arrived there was a line out the door.  It is formal night.  Service is great, so far.
