Hmpph, as funny as it was, i bet the R-rated version was better. 🥰
I think we need an "after dark" section of the board that's age protected 🤔 😂😂😂

That is above @AshleyDillo, @SpeedNoodles, and my pay grade 😂

Greetings from Mrs. Calvin,
I’ve been informed that y’all are anxiously awaiting a guest post by yours truly and I apologize that I kept you waiting. As you know, I’m almost 50 and in the words of the late and great Toby Keith, “I ain’t as good as I once was”. I’ve managed to muster up a few brain cells after 5 days of drinking and I think I can coherently put a sentence together. Figured I’d do this before I have my first margarita of the day…morning. 
I’d like to add a little entertainment for the ladies reading this, I hope you appreciate. 
I can’t for the life of me get good “makeup lighting” in these cabins, is it me? I mean, I’ve been doing this female thing for almost 50 years now and I KNOW my eyebrows need to be tweezed (and at my age, probably my mustache) but I’m just not seeing it in these mirrors. Maybe eyebrows don’t grow on ships, I dunno, we’ll see when I get home. We went to The Empire Supper Club last night so I wanted to add a little eyeshadow to these saggy eyes, truth be told I probably looked like a damn clown because of the very forgiving lighting in the cabin. &$#% you mirror, I know the truth.
I’m finally at the age that I just don’t care, but admittedly I do when it comes to swimwear in public. While I can finally not care and walk around awkwardly in a swimsuit, I gotta make sure these bottoms are where they’re supposed to be as I exit the pool. There are a lot of buttcheeks….err…umm…Europeans on this cruise and I have to admit that I admire their confidence and their “I don’t care” attitude. More power to you. 
Speaking of not caring, go see Grace at the piano bar. She’s a blast and I had a girl crush on her. Not one care given about anything she said, even with a kid front and center. Mr. CK got to hold her harmonica during Piano Man and she told him that he had strong hands and they needed a safe word. I love it. 😂
I got called up on the stage at the headliner show the first night. While I would’ve loved being the center of attention in my younger days, I was quite embarrassed. He was cute though…and sweaty. Very sweaty. Those damn lights are hotter than heck. He also doesn’t know the difference between parallel and perpendicular, but because of the reason previously mentioned, I’ll give him a pass. 
I’ve just been scolded by Mr. Live Blogger himself that this is “TLDR” so I must end it here. Besides, my margarita just arrived. Hope you all have a great time! Cheers! 🍹

That would be hilarious for us, but not so much for you. How would you explain a joint blog to Batman, who doesn't even know that you blog? lmao

Me too!
Happy Birthday, @Mrscalvink669, fellow Taurus!
It sounds like we should cruise together. Can you imagine that inebriated blog?!

🤣 I’m sorry Sabrina, but I’m glad you got a laugh. Perfect Day on Friday, maybe I’ll try again, sans the swearing and butt cheeks, promise. 😜

Tell @Mrscalvink669 that her post did end up coming through but yeah, we cannot approve that post. It was a fun read for me though 😂 tell her that after not so many margaritas she can come back and try again for a takeover, she would probably give @SweetPea a great laugh 

Ok, First round of food.

 
garlic shrimp tacos

grilled Mahi tacos

coconut shrimp….
ok I have a confession, Kelli attempted to take over the blog after a few margaritas and may have used profanity.  I don’t think anything ever showed up because she didn’t know how to sign in.  🙈😇😎
Sorry to the mods if they saw it and 86’d it lol 🤣

Ok, first obviously Kelli's take over didn't happen. Maybe today? 😂
Marla twisted our arm and we did crowns edge.


Then we wondered over to aquadome market and got a Crepe.

After that we rested up for the Empire supper club and it did not disappoint.





















It really was 5 star, Royal knocked it out of the park.  What a great experience.  We’ve been to Michelin star restaurants before and this was every bit as good.
After this, we were done and didn’t make aqua action.  Marla moved it to day six for us 😜.
Kelli went to bed and I went to the casino, ended up winning about $75, so I’ll take it.
Today is Cozumel and Paradise Beach!
 

Recap of last night:
We had dinner at Giovanni’s, which was awesome as usual. I did manage to snap a couple pics although I completely missed appetizers.
Osso Buco

Linguine and seafood

After Dinner we had Starburst which was really good!

Then it was off to Dueling Pianos for more shenanigans and late night debauchery. 😇


Don’t ask why I thought it was a good idea to order the signature pop rocks martini, but here’s proof it happened.  😂😵‍💫
Also here’s a video screen grab of me attempting to hold the harmonica for Grace during Piano Man.

 
By the time that was over it was almost 1am and it was definitely time for bed. 😂.
Today we are in Costa Maya and have nothing planned until 2:30 in which Marla has signed us up for Crowns Edge and declared that it will be Unacceptable to not do it. 😂🤣🙈.
Then tonight is Empire Supper club!
Also, Kelli’s stated she was going to hijack the blog today and give a little perspective from her side.  She is far funnier than I am. 😜

Also came back to a nice surprise for Kellis upcoming birthday on May 16th.
 

 







Marla and our loft attendant Carmen have really out done themselves.
tonight is Giovanni‘s at 8 PM and then we have the starburst ice show at 9:30.
I’ll try to remember to take pictures at dinner tonight lol😎
 

Came back to some serious swag in our room from Hard Rock!

Today we are in Roatan, we have a casita by swim and tonic.







The Moet doesn’t come with these casitas, it’s the bottle we got on boarding day 😉

Ok, big fail on my part as I got the tomahawk ribeye and didn’t snap a single pic while at chops.  Rookie blogging mistake, but I will blame it on the amount of wine consumed up till that point.
As for the tomahawk ribeye, it was delicious, and even though it says 32oz, that is with the bone so really not that huge of a portion when compared to the bone in ribeye.
Going back further yesterday, after the wizard of Oz, I sat down at the 3 card poker table and on the first hand hit a 6 card straight flush.  I only had $10 on the six card bet, but that was still a quick 2K. 😎I ended up giving $400 of that back before the end of the night, but in all it was good!

Rover!

Proof of the shenanigans at the juggler show that I forgot existed (I forgot he took my phone and snapped pictures) 😂


 
Oh and I forgot I took a picture at the 1400 bar!  😜

I might of been a little too under the influence to even BLUI (blog under the influence) 😵‍💫

Slight recap to last night.
My initial opinion of the ship is wow!  The hideaway area is a game changer in my opinion. We hung out there for about 4 hours yesterday, both in the pool and at the bar.  The vibe is unlike anything I’ve experienced on a cruise ship before.  We still have a LOT to explore, we walked around most places, but never even made it to Central Park.
The Aquadome and overlook are stunning!
We had the headliner show at 7:15 it was a juggler named Adam Kario.  Kelli got to go up on stage and be his assistant while I provided comic relief for him 😂.  There may be video 😎In the end it was a lot of fun!
We did make it to Coastal Kitchen for dinner at 8:30, but only managed one picture as I was feeling no pain by that point lol.

We got back to the room and had a surprise waiting for us telling us about a special event this morning.

We are beyond excited as we are dog lovers!
Now just relaxing waiting on Starbucks to arrive.

Should be a fun see day!

This is really nice!

Upcharge for the better cuts in Chops is ridiculous, especially if they allow the lobster upcharge 🤨

I have no idea why it double posted some of those pics.  I’ve only had one drink, so it can’t be that….😂

We were on board by 10:15 and had our luggage almost right away.  Marla is awesome!

 
the updated rules are as follows.
base camp included
deserted basic milkshakes included; fancy are extra
Izumi in the park officially $10 a day but she said if they do charge us for more she’ll remove.
trellis bar snacks officially $20 per day, but same thing as Izumi.  In fact she says almost no one has even been charged as of late.
chops iconic cuts…still an upcharge.
we are off to lunch now in playmakers.
