Dinner in the main dining room! Our waiters have taken to bringing platters of shrimp for our son which he loves and eats it all.... Where does he put it though??? Hubby and I shared the trio of desserts as we couldn't decide. They were all yummy! We went to the Headliner show which was with Greg London and was fantastic! We really enjoyed the hour of music go See him!

Back to the ship for a late lunch after a quick dip in the ocean and spent the day catching rays with some drinks. This girl is fried!

Nick was so gracious and took photos with each of us. We were allowed to drop our masks briefly and stood 6 ft apart It was an awesome Build your own excursion ($75.00 with taxi, entry and donation so $25.00 each) We were about 3 hrs reading and listening to the different videos. A thoroughly enjoyable time!

A few more photos from the museum. We took these off our phones and Nick asks (please follow the rules to protect the articles) no flash photography!!!! I will admit I love the Ewoks

Today we made our own excursion and went to The Yoda Guy. Admission to the main area is free the museum area is $15.00. All of the money goes to the Foundation which supports youth in the industry to excel and achieve their dreams. There is also a donation box at the end. We took a taxi both ways to the downtown area from the pier for $3.00 each. The museum piece was incredible and Nick was awesome. Our son can do a few voice impressions and did his Yoda for Nick. We explored town a bit, grabbed a few things including our son buying a new outfit for himself. He is 18 so he also treated himself to a couple which was something he was looking forward to!

Good Morning St Marteen

Good Night! Next up St Marteen

February 3- Today we were supposed to be in Puerto Rico.. we all know that has not been going well..... Hoping restrictions change and we can visit as this is twice we have not been able to go, Once in March 2020 we were to do my dream cruise Sailing out of San Juan to ABC's (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaco and St Martin). We were set to leave the week the world shut down ! I guess looking back I am thankful we did not get stranded there although an Aft Jr Suite would have been an ok place to be while sailing home! Today the ship gave complimentary NorthStar and iFly due to the missed port which was lovely. We took full advantage. Our son was a natural in the iFly and ended up figuring out quickly how to go super high and the instructor had to "lift off" to go retrieve him. My hubby thought he took video but was actually pictures which was unfortunate. It was an amazing time. Hubby and I then rock climbed. I failed lol but he made it up all lines and rang the bells. We spent a lazy sea day around the pools with a few beverages and dinner at the Costal Kitchen. Our service was good and food was good. I will say nothing exceptional but we did enjoy ourselves. Our son informed us he was going to see "his waiters" and would not join us. We figured out why the night at St Marteen which is up next!

I am super thankful I will let you know that... not many activities for an 18 yr old that is a gamer so it was something to get him out an about!

DH had a massage after supper and also enjoyed it. Our shore excursion was cancelled in St Lucia before we boarded. To this day we have never received notification and Guest Services has confirmed that a refund has been issued. Waiting as I am unsure amounts etc. The Guest Services attendant when we tried to get information, book a new excursion and find out more about St Lucia was the most dismissive, unhelpful , J****** I have ever encountered on a cruise! We are meeting with the manager later today to make a decision on what we will do but we were certainly unimpressed with the whole situation. On a positive note Vitoria in guest services is wonderful and the best service staff ever!!! We have spoken with her about any questions or concerns and she has been phenomenal. I am off to Explore St Marteen ! More later

The world My husband loved this!!! IMG_5670.MOV

More pictures

More food pictures and video. One thing I should say is due to all the mains having hot peppers in them I was unable to have a main from Wonderland. My husband loved the ShortRib and they got me a Chops Filet with mushrooms and asparagus which was very kind and accomodating. (I was just going to skip main and did not expect this at all!)

Our son discovered the seaplex with my hubby after the NorthStar. They did Johnny Rockets for lunch. Shakes are included with the Refreshment Package and the Deluxe Beverage Package. The fee for the food was not worth it my husband said. He was disappointed in the burger size and flavor. Our son was excited to find and use the X-Box on the big screen and has spent a few hours a day in there! None of us were keen on the Bumper cars but those using looked like they were having a blast. I went for a massage while they were doing this which was fantastic! The afternoon we spent catching some rays and having a few drinks! All were exactly what we needed. The evening we went for dinner at Wonderland! A unique experience. Here was our menu and food photos. There is some video as well Our "neighbors" at dinner had some different things as they both decided to have the kids desserts so they were gracious and allowed me to take photos of their food Thanks !
