I started with the appetizer portion of the spinach ravioli. 
 

 

 

Mark was healthy (blech) and got the salad. He did say it was really good. Crisp and cold. 
 

Spinach ravioli - one of DW's favorites.

We both opted for the salmon. It looks a little drab, but was cooked perfectly. This received two thumbs up. 
 

 

 

I tried the orange soufflé. It was good. I remember the Princess soufflés being excellent though so it was just a tiny let down. The Grand Marnier soufflé on Celebrity is worlds better. (But overall we thought the Princess boarding day lunch was great.)

Not in our balcony cabin. 

Not the ocean view cabin - also no outlet next to the bad

Princess really does pasta right. 👍

[aring75]

I’ll include a few cabin photos here. We are port side Caribe Deck (10).

I enjoy the deeper balcony and love that it is half covered / half open. The chairs have footstools which is nice. 
 

 

[aring75]

Nice sized closet. 
 

 

Still has that motion activated light. We are going to have a talk later.

 

 

Bathroom is pretty standard. And the shower has that dreaded curtain that like to get frisky.

I'm so glad you're doing a "Live From"!!  I was supposed to be on this cruise but realized I forgot to pack my medicines just before boarding so I had to fly back home.😟

Information for Platinum cruisers. 
 

[aring75]

Info on Super Tuscan wine dinner. I wish Mark was a wine drinker. 
 

[aring75]

They just called for people to watch the safety video and check in at their muster stations. They said they were still waiting on more than 800 people. 
 

 

We found a nice spot in Skywalkers Lounge for sailaway.

Lol! The madding crowd followed us! A group of about twelve sat down right next to us. They were playing videos on their phones and one was having a conversation on speakerphone. 
 

That’s okay though. We found another nice spot. 😁

You’re off to a great start!  Thank you .. I will be following along!  

[FormerPrincessCrew]

I can’t wait to follow along here while I follow my parents along on Facebook. They are on right now as well. Enjoy the ports, it’s a great itinerary.

super long lines tonight at dinner, probably a 30 minute wait time  it’s a full ship so not really a surprise- and that’s with reservations 

Also it seems no dress code is taking serious - saw some Flipflops at dinner 😬

foodwise a lot of Caribbean flavored dishes, taste wise it’s more on the blank side but then that could be a typical US cruise line issue 

 

Also find it strange that there are no prices for the drinks at any menu to be honest

dinner tonight pictured - more of a baked pudding then a soufflé
