It does look rather tired and straggly.

Yes I think it would benefit from sunlight. It gets no natural lighting where it is at. The vibrations of the ship also make it tremble giving the appearance of a frightened tree.

@Itchy&Scratchythey do have iced coffee. They are $6 and the same size as my coffee drinks.

It's a blended drink so it's just where the ice didn't get blended all the way. I get to the bottom of my drink and I'm left with a chunk of ice 😆. 

 

That coconut cheesecake was a sleeper in that photo. I forgot to mention that, it was so creamy and delicious I was not expecting that it looked like it was going to be a bland square cake but it was heavenly 😋.

I have no motivation for it but I'm not going to magically get more motivated as the day goes on so I'm off to the gym now to get my steps in.

 

No pain no gain!

[jam19872016]

Ncl escape. 

 

 

That's a really big ship to be trying to tender to shore.

[jam19872016]

Grand Cayman...as close as I'm going to get today.

Feeling a little peckish so I grabbed a salad.

The tomatoes don’t look remotely ripe. I assume the messiness is the result of your distinctive plating skills.

The tomatoes were fine but the cheese was in big globs instead of being finely cubed. Ended up being tasty, distinctive plating and all 😉

 

Ruining my dinner as I also got a bowl of ice cream. Ooops.

[jam19872016]

After getting my exercise in I went to the sauna. Got to talking with someone who said there was someone onboard writing a live review of the cruise.

 

I let him talk for a minute to see what he had to say and once they were all good I said "that's me."

 

[jam19872016]

Back in the room, still trying to finish Oppenheimer. I thought today would be a good day but happy hour starts soon. They are having another event in the sky lounge so I will probably check that out. 

 

I'm gonna start it back up and just finish it when I can, run time is 180 minutes wow.

[jam19872016]

At the sky lounge for happy hour. They've turned it into a lounge for the evening for elite and above.

 

There will also be an event at 545 called music and mixology. I've seen it covered on YouTube and I'm going to be overserved again tonight 🤪.

 

Cosmopolitan because it was pretty good last night.

 

[jam19872016]

And another.

Yes. These have been coming from the Sky Lounge. I tried a cosmo once before and did not care for it, these have been quite tasty.

[jam19872016]

Happy hour menu.

Arjam playing some music for us now.

 

 

Tennessee whisky 🎶 

 

Not great view but I thought it was gonna be crowded and didn't want to be around everyone. Guess I could move closer.

I tried Appletinis on our last cruise (we had a package for the first time ever!) and I loved them.

Is Elite Happy hour unlimited?

Nice! I love Cosmos but have gotten some from the martini bar that were awful. I will have to try the sky lounge! 

[jam19872016]

Putting on a show for us. Showing us how to mix three different drinks.

Yes for two hours every day except embarcation day.

Drink #1 they demonstrated... Manhattan. Not something I would order but down the hatch it goes.

 

 

New York 🎶 

[jam19872016]

I won't be adding Manhattan to my list of drinks to order.

 

I couldn't quite understand the name of this one.

 

Spy pimms maybe?

 

 

[jam19872016]

That one was good. Very interesting flavor. I don't know what to ask for it order it though. 

 

Final drink, Mai Tai 

 

 

I can see clearly now 🎶
