@Sweety no, nothing yet. I had the Evian water, the Hideaway and was waiting to pounce on the Railroad with the rest of my OBC. Now I have zero OBC, just cruise planner cancelations and my cruise planner allows for just a few Coco Cay purchases, Hideaway is not even there. Hoping AT LEAST our OBC is back when I receive our new invoice. Fingers crossed.🤞

Honestly after seeing it in person my wife and I agreed we could justify $50-60 if you spend all day there. It’s a way bigger and nicer version of Cocoa Beach club.

@OCSC Mike Kenny AND Norm were fantastic on our Wonder sailing. Norm was in the Crown lounge but was always coming to suite lounge to chat with Kenny. I think they would make an amazing team! Sending positive thoughts for the successful chocolate croissants caper!!!

Missed this earlier. Tell Kenny to send some down to the basement so Alan’s daughter can enjoy her cruise!

I'm happy to hear about Hide a Way. We HAD 20.00 entrance before the Utopia move. I'm not paying 70.00!! I will try to claw back my sail pricing but not holding my breath. Thank you so much for the photos, it does look amazing.

Will do my best since @GatorCruiseronly mentioned like 2 items. Methinks he cared more about the bourbon than the food. 🤣 No judgment of course.
I liked it better here when it was cool in October. Feels hotter than it was supposed to be. Think I’ve had 8 cups of mango water so far. 🥵

The fruit danish was mine. She got a plain croissant since there wasn’t chocolate. We usually do ask with mixed results. But I agree if there are any to be found they will get them. I’ll ask tomorrow if they’re still missing. We have Mason Jar brunch though so don’t think we’ll be eating breakfast.

@OCSC Mike I see that you brought your wife one of those fruit-covered danish. I do love those....not so much for the fruit or the danish but for the yummy custard. LOL I'll betcha if you ask the CL Concierge that they will get your some chocolate croissant for later in the week. They're usually pretty good about that kind of thing. Good luck !

SMH at group of 8 adults in the pool talking about how Hideaway Beach is $70pp if you book it in person. It has been $19.99-$26.99pp in the planner for months. I get that there are tons of new cruisers but I don’t get how people do virtually zero research. Oh well. I’m sure they’ll have a good time regardless.

He welcomed us to the island.

Off the ship not long after the gangway opened & it’s empty by the Oasis pool. This is not an early morning crowd & we’re the only shop here. Will use my Bezos holder for something frozen later.

Starting to feel awake & better. Crown Lounge may be in the basement but love that there are two coffee machines & this model can fill my cappuccino to the very top of the to-go cups.
One huge negative… no chocolate croissants for my wife, one of her favorite things in the food world. Grabbed her a plain with my Danish & 2 large cappuccinos. Currently drinking them from my Bezos cup holder in the cabin b/c there’s no coffee table on Wonder. Waiting to see how wife feels before we make plans. Normally we get off the ship ASAP. Stay tuned…

Can’t sleep for a change.
MDR started off rough. Took a good 45 mins to get our appetizers after sitting down but the rest of the meal moved quickly so hopefully it was a one-off. Escargot wasn’t hot (took so long, not surprising) but rest of the meal was fine. Wife’s grilled chicken was dry but rest of her meal was fine too. You guys know we’re not big MDR fans so it’s not super important to us. My key lime pie was much better than expected & my wife tried Boston cream pie instead of resorting to her usual ice cream & liked it. We went to WJ after to find half the MDR menu & nothing overly exciting.
After dinner we saw InTENse for the 2nd time. Same opinion… it’s good but we prefer less dancing & more diving.
Headliner after that… Pete Matthews, comedic juggler. Some of his jokes were funny & clearly he can juggle but not great.
CocoCay in the morning so hopefully we get some sleep.

I have to catch myself, as a Chicagoan from using our abbreviations. I used CPS/CPL in something to mention Libraries and it caught the person off-guard.

Ok, i had to look up where you're from because i was genuinely worried for you. I see in your case CPS stands for Chicago Public Schools (at least i hope!). In my neck of the woods ... CPS is Child Protective Services. 😅

Biscuits were good.

Caught a couple mins of intense (seen it before) my goose is cooked for the day. Coco tomorrow. Thrill water park; will Check out hideaway beach. as always this website provides a service. Someone mentioned about asking room attendant for a fan. Didn’t know that was an option before. Asked, for a box fan for the room. Got one. Thanks y’all.
