Adventure is alternating 5-night Bermuda with 9-night Bermuda & Caribbean through the summer.

The problem with those is that it can deactivate your Sea Pass.

Ummm....

Some Christmas decorations around the ship:

Day 8
Disembarkation day
The day everyone dreads. Not as much this time for me as I was ready to get home and get back to my own bed. Having a departure tag of 33 we knew we’d be called around 8:40, so we got up at 6:45 and got everyone dressed. 
Addie and I walked down to Park Cafe to pick up a quick breakfast. As I mentioned yesterday, this is normally the day we order in breakfast as it’s nice to have to head down to a packed buffet for breakfast. Luckily, Park Cafe is nearby, but it was busier than we had seen it any point in the week. As the tables were full we walked it back to the room and ate there while Nikki got ready. 
 
 
Shortly thereafter we were ready too early as always and just sat out on the balcony. One of the features I like on RC is that you can see which groups have been called on the internal TV stations rather than running into the hallway to try and hear the muffled numbers. 

Once again I checked out the map from our journey which gets really just looks like we’re patrolling Cuba for 7 days. 

At about 8:25 they called the few numbers before us so we walked down to 5 for disembarkation. No wait to speak of getting off the boat, but once we got to luggage claim the terminal mess began. People were backed up all over and groups that hadn’t been called were allowed in line and groups that had were being herded off to the side. Given that we were in a suite and had been told we had Priority Disembarkation this certainly didn’t feel it. 

 
Per Matt Hochberg’s advice, once down the escalator grabbed the first porter and grabbed our luggage. Even though we had global entry he said it wasn’t necessary and he cut through the lines and found a line seemingly for portered customers that only had one person. 
After a very cursory glance at our passports and quick question about buying jewelry we were on our way. 
The Uber we called only took about two minutes to get there and another 10-15 to get to FLL. 
The B gates at FLL are always a mess with twice as many people as seats and only lackluster dining options to choose from. We ended up finding three seats a few gates away and setup shop till our flight. 
We boarded right on time but didn’t even close the door until 30 minutes after our departure time and then with much confusion left by less than communicative crew we sat for another 90 minutes. Finally two hours after scheduled time we took off back for BWI on our completely full flight and this vacation was officially over.

We saved Izumi Hibachi for the last night on the cruise as it seemed a fitting start and finish to the trip. We were one of the earlier seatings as we had dinner at 5:30. I’m surprised they only put three hibachi grills in as they’re always full and I’m sure could fill up one or two more.
 
As we didn’t eat much lunch we ordered some appetizers with the girls sharing a Spicy Shrimp Tempura Roll and I stuck with the easy potstickers. I was adventurous at Wonderland, not starting on sushi now or anytime. 
Our Teppan chef was friendly, but the shtickola was the exact same as the table behind us, so it would appear they’re working from a script. There was one uncomfortable moment when the chef made a smiley face out of cooking oil. That wouldn’t have been a problem, but he dragged the eyes to the side and said “Japanese eyes” which seemed quite off-color. 
The fried rice was entirely too full of egg as the chef used 6 eggs in enough rice for 6 people. The meat was cooked well and all of the different proteins were delicious. 
After dinner dessert was served with choice of either Mochi or a Sesame and Red bean dessert. 
All in all a very good experience and one we would definitely do again next time on a Royal Caribbean cruise.
 

Day 7
We slept in today so much in the way of morning activities. We attempted to go up to the Windjammer at 10 but quickly learned that was a terrible idea. Not a table to be found and people just holding tables with cell phones or jackets. Yesterday the amount of people was frustrating, today it seemed unbearable. I decided just to skip breakfast, the girls however grabbed a plate and we took it downstairs and grabbed a quiet table in a nearly empty Dazzles. 
Not having much on the agenda we made our way to the captains corner event in the royal theater. We hadn’t had a chance to meet or get pictures with Captain Johnny the entire week. It was a good time as the Captain is so approachable and affable. So many captains are uptight and don’t seem like anyone you’d want to grab a beer with. The only problem with the event was that it became a whining session for a few customers about little issues on the ship. I did get to ask a question of the Chief Engineer in regards to how the change to Liquid Natural Gas changes how they fuel up and where. 
 

After captains corner Addie wanted to see the towel folding demonstration, which was held in the Boot and Bonnet pub. It was a bit odd having a kid focused event in a working pub while people in buying drinks. It’s the one time all week I missed the Atrium concept from the largest Norwegian cruise ships. It was rather short compared to others she’s been to before. 

Now It Gets Retractable Smoke Stacks
 

Royal IT making it very confusing to book a 2021 cruise...?

Unfortunately the length of the sailing and dates don't work for me.  I really wanted to make it work, but RC has gotten rid of the 6-night Canada/NE sailings that I was banking on.

I need to hit the books a little I think...but my excuse is I've only been "here" for like...20 minutes? ?

Because then I would have full access to CK.

Still $56/night for my Anthem sailing next October, but I'm guessing I'm much too far out to be seeing any drop in price due to "insufficient purchases" or other drivers. I'm guessing I won't see pricing at or below $50/night until July 4 or thereabouts. Maybe not even until Labor Day, if at all.
