Could have been. We were out there the entire time. I actually watched us arrive in Nassau today. Up way too early. Don’t want Hubby to feel like I am an unsupportive wife or anything heading to the FlowRider now with my Starbucks

Happy cruise day!!! With all the crazy flight delays and cancellations, I am so happy that you made it!

Tomorrow we are in Nassau and I don’t think we are leaving ship. FlowRider rental is a 8am tomorrow so we need to head to bed soon.

After the sail away we went to see One Sky. This is a Royal Caribbean production that is relatively newer. Lisa said that even last year when they sailed in March 2023 they did not have this. It was ok. Definitely worth seeing if you are looking for something to do, but not something to be crushed about if you are busy and miss it. It was a collection of singing, dancing and some aerial work.

Like I mentioned earlier, sail away happened around 7:15pm. It was a gorgeous sail away! Not only did we get to turn around in the basin, but it was just in time for sunset. I could not filter through the photos, I love them all, so here is a sail away photo dump.

CK filet night was amazing!!! Do you want to know why? First of all, we had the funniest waiter, Steven. Hilarious and full of personality. I am sort of sad we aren’t eating more meals in there this sailing. This guy is fun! But to the really good stuff…the absolute highlight of the evening was what came with the filet! Normal filet in CK comes with truffle mashed potatoes but they usually look like regular mashed potatoes with maybe a hint of truffle oil. Not the ones tonight! There were actual pieces of truffle mixed into it. Omg! It was so flavourful, I just about died and went to food heaven! I am sort of sad that Hubby did not capture it in his photos, but you will have to take my word for it.

Let’s just say that frosted glass gives way to a “shadow puppet” show. mega downside to the suite lmao. Will need to change strategies tomorrow.

I find out who the captain is. Also, apparently we were waiting for those who had travel delays but then later when Hubby was on the FlowRider (and I was uploading room pics) he said that he heard the captain make an announcement about thrusters needing repairs. Then later at dinner, we heard that they had divers down there looking at them. So a combination of things led to the the delay. We eventually got on the move around 7:15pm. Made for a gorgeous sunset sail away! I uploaded some video clips to IG. Will try to post pics later when Hubby sends them to me.

I wish! The cabana is a no go. I thought so too! This is a really good thing they are doing for those who are already feeling very stressed. I still want to know how many of those we are waiting for are air2sea people.

Sail away now delayed until 7-7:30pm. Need to revise dinner plans….

I have no idea if there was a charge for him or not. We never got a bill

They rented it out for 2 mornings, in addition to the star class one.

Room tour! Main entry Downstairs bedroom and Bathroom Main living area Upper level Balcony

Lots!

He is not in a rush because he is joining Andrew and Owen for the private session tomorrow. At least that is what he said We booked SY for July 2025. That sounds like way too much work! Will do! That might require you to sail out somewhere other than PC lol

@amanuel2992 not to worry, D15 has set herself up on the balcony and is making good use of it already! Two out of four of us are causalities of the time change. D17 and Hubby are both sound asleep Off to NC now!

Shane also mentioned that the captain has decided to push back sail away until 6pm because of all the flight delays from yesterday. Not sure if that is because they have a large number of guests who booked through Air2Sea? I thought that was rather interesting that they would do that. Really nice of them.

We are on board! Well we were actually on board a while ago. Got here around the same time as Andrew and Lisa and we all boarded together with Shane. That was just before 11am. Our luggage arrived just after us, so very quick. Less than 30 mins after we arrived in our suite. The room is awesome! Just finally getting a chance to sit down now and soak it in a bit as I write this. Yeah, I am not leaving this room for the next 7 days. Kids said this room doesn’t even feel like we are on a ship. Lunch was at Portside BBQ. And best part? Shane had time to join us for lunch! Off to Next Cruise now. Will post room pics when I return from there. Get ready for a massive photo dump.

All checked out and off to the port!

I have been making noise since 6:55am. We ate breakfast and now just back in the room packing up last minute stuff. We ran into the hotel manager in the club lounge earlier and he assured us that everything is fine with our reservation. So we don’t have to rush as much to check out now. Planning to leave here around 10am.

Totally agree! Miami is our favourite backdrop for sail away! Looks like it!

I sure did! We think about Mason Jar all the time!

Me too! But I have to wait until March 2025 to go back to Mason Jar

So happy! As I told @asquared17 in her blog, I had really hoped that Oasis would be parked the other way facing Miami when it’s our turn to board. The picture isn’t great, but it looks like she is!! It’s going to be a great sail away!

I still cannot believe that after all this time, this is actually happening!
