Guy's burgers are still free. And delicious 😋

Thanks. I remembered that thought it was something else. I’m taking my mobile bar too. 

Love my mobile bar. Love even more that I don't seem to need it here.

It cooled off quick. Should have walked quicker than I did but that was a nice hit at least.

[jam19872016]

Checked out schooner, it's full. Tried the pub which I knew was a waste of time it stays full on smaller ships but tried. Full. Boleros had room but not a fan of Latin music.

 

Chilling in the crown Lounge for a couple minutes and formulating a plan.

I get like that after dinner too - so I try and avoid going back to the cabin where the bed looks so inviting lol! Come back and let us know if the silent disco is worth staying up for?

Also, thanks for posting the JR Breakfast menu - my cabin is on deck 6 very close to the entrance of  the Boardwalk, so it would be convenient for me vs, the Windjammer. Assuming there is no cover charge for breakfast at JR's?

@ckrobyn  it has been a no cover change breakfast option on every oasis class cruise we have been on from 2010 through 2023.

Great, thank you!

[jam19872016]

I don't think I'm gonna make it to silent disco. Gonna casino a bit more then I need my bed.

[jam19872016]

This machine just kept paying and paying.

 

 

Cooled off right when two slot techs came over and started fiddling with settings on the machine next to me.

 

Coincidence?

 

Probably but the MOJO has been changed either way. Still ain't mad at the run. Literally kept paying and paying and paying.

[jam19872016]

Dang, have to cash in my voucher. Machines will literally noonger accept it, amount too high 🤣. Literally never had that problem ever.

[jam19872016]

Casino taking their money back too quickly. Cashed out for the night and getting a late night snack from Cafe promenade. 

 

[jam19872016]

Those snacks were better than I expected. Pretty decent.

 

Had three vouchers left so I cashed them in for some take home power aides. Then I took a walk around the ship for a little late night exercise. It's very windy outside and the ship is starting to rock a little. I wonder if this will impact Coco Cay? Even with the dock, I have missed it a couple times due to strong winds.

 

Had another amazing day in the casino. Even after they clawed back their money, I leave up nearly $1200 now. What an unusual, but greatly appreciated, run of good luck. 

 

I'm in the room now turning in for the evening, good night and thanks for continuing to follow along!

That sounds like a really nice problem to have! 
 

Glad you’re having good luck at the casino

Good Morning. The food: everything you have had so far has looked elegant, sounded delicious, and, according to you, tasted really good, with very decent sized portions. It all seems far nice than on your trips on Celebrity and Carnival, and certainly as nice as Cunard. How much superior is it to the MDR food? And how much would, say, that lovely meal in 150CP have cost, if you didn’t have the package?

Coming out of lurk mode again.😉 What is the slice of dessert on your plate? Lemon something?? I'm still craving the desserts they had on deck 5 of Celebrity Reflection. We loved their lemon and chocolate tarts. And their cakes. Anything like that on this ship?

[jam19872016]

Good morning. Guess I was more tired than I realized. 

 

Slept almost the whole night through but getting up now even though it's almost noon, oops.

Vastly superior than the MDR. And it's not just the food, but also service. I'm the name of efficiency they tend to seat 3-4 parties at the same time and then serve at the same time to save kitchen runs. This means my meal drags on until the slowest diner in the group is ready for their next course

 Drives me insane. 

 

Royal uses dynamic pricing but full price onboard would be $64.99. If bought ahead of time it ranges between $50-60 usually around $55. I will usually purchase as part of a BOGO deal for diamond+ members making it $32.50.

 

Nothing is inexpensive on Royal Caribbean, that is for sure 😆

That was a coconut custard cake. I got it because it was the best option open that late but it turned out to be pretty tasty.

 

The desserts (and sandwiches) at Cafe promenade are going to be the closest thing to those yummy options at Cafe al Bacio, but even on their best day, they are not as good.

+1.6

Casino stays open in coco Cay. Gonna do a little playing while I wait on Portside to open at 1.

 

[jam19872016]

Grabbed a Bloody Mary.

Thanks for the info! We'll probably be doing more Celebrity cruises just for the food. 

Enjoying your posts! Looking forward to your Coco Cay adventures!

Sun was shining but once I got outside I realized it was only an illusion...still quite chilly.

 

Peach daiquiri while I wait on my order.

You're very welcome!

 

Included food is much better On Celebrity but I'm loving the ultimate dining plan while it's on somewhat of a sale.
