As a safety engineer, I can tell you the fastest way to get that taken care of is to throw the safety flag.  They will have it taken care of ASAP.  I do admire the redneck engineering fix though.  Pretty impressive.

Never underestimate the power of redneck ingenuity.  The divider to the next suite squeaks at incredible decimals.  Waiting until a decent hour to let Allan know and see if something can be done.  
 
It sounds like a nest of about 27 baby pterodactyls chirping in hungry angst..

Currently rocking back and forth gently.  Awesome for sleeping. The divider between us and the next cabin was squeaking extremely loudly so we went out there and stuffed a towel between the handrail and the divider. Problem temporarily solved until they can either weld or replace?
Royal has gone above and beyond our expectations at this point!
i had asked that the room filters be changed and they assured us 3 times, different people each time, that they were down. Daughter has severe asthma.
Pre cruise I had asked for two feather body pillows, granted.  They are awesome!
Asked for binoculars, 3 were waiting!
i did bring a hammock, we asked if we could put it up and were told no.  No big deal to us..  I’m sure it’s for safety reasons but also they probably don’t want their ship looking like the Clampets have moved in. We already look like Jed, Granny and Ellie May....?
Being as there are three of us, we asked for a third lounger and they brought one of the ones from the pool area.  
Allan asked if we wanted snacks for the Aqua 80s show and they brought an entire tray of SunChips, Lays and Doritos?
Everyone was all seated in the Aqua theatre and then they cancelled the show.  If we would have been in the crowd, I probably would have been irritated by that.
breakfast will be here within the half hour.  I’m STARVING???

We’ll bring you a sampling of desserts they said...good grief..!

Because I am already in a self induced food coma (still good for more 
alcohol though), my last post today will be a highlight reel of sail away . 
I can tell you currently we are rocking and rolling with strong winds and high seas.
Pretty confident there will be no Aqua 80s show tonight.

Got him to do a selfie with me

middle of magnified circle is my hubster waving at the Port of Miami camera..?

lots of money sitting idle

Miami is just a memory now, see you right back here in a week?
more blogging tomorrow.  I swear I will!

I will drop the hint about the tumblers. The book was for Delaney from Allen. She did note on the survey she likes to travel...

We were set up for Uber this morning.  Two drivers cancelled because the cops wouldn’t let them through to the hotel.  One persevered and made it through. Had to loop around and come through the tunnel. Made it to the terminal at 10:03, hubster fought off any and all porters trying to make off with our luggage, stating he was under strict orders from me. ?Made the guy who ended up as our porter show identification and swear on a bible under penalty of some slight mutilation that he was indeed a star porter.
We turned down Joyce taking us aboard wanting to wait for Allen and to also absorb some of the ambience of the lovely suite lounge in the terminal.  Two minutes later Allen was there and he just awesome!
Guess what was waiting in our room!
Pretzel M & Ms!

The Yumster and I spend a lot of time laughing and being absurd.  I found a copy of the initial questionaire and typed it into a document to compile our answers at our leisure.  Added bonus, it draws out the excitement of the cruise, because as we all know, you board the ship and it seems like you blink your eyes and you are already disembarking.
To the question, "If you could invite 3 people-famous or infamous—throughout history for a dinner party, who would you invite?"
My answers (and I know they really don't mean anything, but it is fun to think about...):

Lucille Ball for laughs.

Leonardo DaVinci for intellectual thoughts.

Tom Selleck for eye candy. ?
 
What are some of your dinner guest picks?

Because I am already in a self induced food coma (still good for more 
alcohol though), my last post today will be a highlight reel of sail away . 
I can tell you currently we are rocking and rolling with strong winds and high seas.
Pretty confident there will be no Aqua 80s show tonight.
