I saw both of these guys R acts, both great!  Joel did some improv that had the entire crowd standing up clapping.  I still think of the 3 I liked that PG show last week the best.

Last towel animal.  Never got my fave, the monkey.

Again,  this band was great.  Guy joined them from crew and did some great Lionel Ritchie, Commodores and Marvin Gaye songs.

Got my free cappuccino on Seaday Brunch.

I think I forgot to post pics of last night's dinner.  Later I got pizza at 2am but couldn't find my cell phone to take pics. Turns out it was hiding in my pocket.

Last sunset

My friends down the hall won over $10,000 with a royal flush.  Carnival is so happy they're staying onboard for the next 2 cruises so they can try to claw some of it back.

So Lido has this late night thing with steak-n-cheese, hotdogs and other stuff.  Usually I am too late and only pizza is open but I lost a ton of money so bowed out around 11 with my tail between my legs. If I could get it to curl up a little more might feel good.

Debarkation was super quick once we got moving,  didn't have to show passport. About 12 minutes from gangway to uber.

30-mph winds and 10-ft swells with some whitecaps... didn't sleep very well with all the creaking and hangers clacking.

There was definitely motion on the ocean, crazy winds! They actually vibrated the top lock on my balcony door loose and boy was it whistling when I got back to my room. Luckily the bottom lock held. I checked it morning and night after that.

 

I slept very well, LOL well until I almost rolled out of bed. I tend to sleep near the edge, moved a little more to the middle and all was good!

Yes, Ken the singing maitre’d was on the ship and sang several nights as well as had a small concert in the Follies Theatre one afternoon.

Remember the first cruise you went on that had a lot of rockin' in the ocean, and how when you got home you felt like you were still going back and forth even sitting down in your house?  I got that again yesterday and this morning for the first time since the first time.

Wow!!  I haven't had that happen for years.  The ship must have been really pushing it to get back before the storm.  Yikes!

I felt it this past oct 22 when I was on the Celebration (due to a storm) took me a day or two to get back to normal upon returning home- i can remember it always being bad when the ship was going between nassau & san juan

Thanks for sharing your vaca with us all!

I especially enjoyed your review of Aruba and Curacao,

we will be going there (and Bonaire) this coming summer for the first time.

We were thinking of doing the tour on aruba you shared,

but it seems like several places are just ruins of nice things

to see from the past. I think we will stick to going to the beach,

just need to decide Eagle or Baby - or maybe both! Long day at port...

Once we thought that. Turned out it was a 3.8 earthquake,  and the ground really was moving.
