  1. Some highlights... 1. Parking. I took this photo from my parking spot. Yes. It is that close. Also they charge you per night.. Not per day. 160 bucks to park for the 8 night trip 2. Move over Chops mushroom soup. The smoked tomato soup from the CK is now the best soup. Ever. 3. Glass floor in the staircase between deck 13 and 14. Not for the faint of heart.
  2. So during the pre-cruise survey I mentioned I'd love to have dinner with Bruce Springsteen and Poppy and Branch from Trolls. The other day Jay showed up with a stuffed Poppy and Branch. Tonight when we got back from dinner on our table was this book.... I no longer think that they don't read the surveys.. Wow
  3. It is in the process of being removed. Genie Jay noted it before I even emailed him.
  4. She said it was very good for gluten free. She's ordered 3 of them. They take about 10 minutes to prepare.
  5. Had me a galley tour. It never ceases to amaze me when you see the scale and complexity of the operation. I'm somewhat of a picky eater and I've always found the food to range from good to excellent.
  6. Finally had a chance to avail myself of the Solarium pool (aka successful drop off at adventure ocean). ATTENTION ROYAL CARIBBEAN : The Quantum class solarium pools should be the entry level of what an acceptable pool is going forward. None of this Oasis class bath tub sized pool (if any - I'm looking at you, Harmony).
  7. What happens at the Quest....
  8. What's wrong with this picture?
  9. Tried Micheal's again for lunch. The roast beef was horrid. Back to the burger I go.
  10. In the category of first world problems... The on demand movie selection sucks compared to the Harmony. I'm not one to pick a cruise based on their TV offerings but on the Harmony it was like a mini Netflix. On this ship there is maybe 10 movies, only 1 of them is kid friendly. Nassau was hot. I got off for maybe an hour or so. My drink package and speciality dining aren't included on land so the ship was calling my name.
  11. You'll get your pictures of the suite. There are 3 others staying in it. It is tough to find a time when it is in a state of good repair and the bathrooms aren't occupied.
  12. Stopped by Sorrentos last night. Pizza still tastes like a bad frozen pizza.. But it was PACKED. RCI will never change anything about the pizza if it is always that busy. I feel like those of us griping about the pizza on the internweb are the vocal minority.
  13. Great day today. Lost my CocoCay virginity. Dinner at the Coastal Kitchen was decent. I had the short rib. If you are keeping track, 5 days in a row with red meat. I'm in my happy place. Buffet on the beach was decent. I drank more cocoloccos then then entered on my account. Tender is a pain in the ass. Little one is happy because she met Alex. Wife and I are happy because we're livin' large in a GLS.. and our friend who has never travelled south or on a cruise before is floored with how amazing it is. Our friend is celiac. She is blown away by the level of care and attention to detail the RCI restaurant staff are with her dietary needs. We went Chops last night and we were seated and she informed the host of her celiac condition.. He replied with "I know '. Our server then ensured all appetizers were prepare gluten free so she could share. The lengths they went to ensure her needs were met were mind-boggling.
  14. What a terrible job. Dressing up as a lion. In the Caribbean. Then getting mauled by grubby kids. Mine however just drenched herself in purell before and after meeting Alex. Ps. Don't even think about calling him Jim, Bob, Steve, Mike, Miguel, Ahmad, Rolf, Etc the lion.. It pisses her off immensely. "No Daddy! His name is Alex! Alex the lion Daddy! Stop changing his name. It's Alex"
  15. It is very similar to a Reese peanut butter cup.. Except with whipped cream.. And better.
  16. If you like peanut butter,whip cream and chocolate then you need to have it. That is the best way to describe it. It is worth the 5 bucks they charge for it.
  17. Tickets were given out on day 3. The last sea day prior to CocoCay. The island is beautiful. I'd never been here before. Nicer white sand beaches than Labadee. The waterslide is fun. Buffet was decent. Cocoloccos are delicious. Tendering is a PITA. Thankfully the pier is under construction. I heard today that unlike a June completion date I had previously heard it is now slated for the third quarter of 2018
  18. Success! We've made it to CocoCay!
  19. Went to Coca beach today. Weather was unseasonably warm. Water was seasonably cool. We still enjoyed the waves. Coastal for breaky.. 270 for lunch. Both very good. Chops for dinner. If their desserts don't meet my expectations I'll head to Michael's for a peanut butter thing.
  20. Peanut butter thing at Michael's is different than the peanut butter thing at Wonderland. Both delicious.
