I reread my vows, and madE a few last minute adjustments at the bar with vodka on the rocks. Well that sounds like an activity that had the potential to go horribly wrong. Obviously you did well though since she said yes again. Congrats on the renewal, and thanks so much for all the great pictures. Enjoying them greatly.

bossdog421 Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Another great day. Well almost.. We went walking around San Juan, I forgot to take my morning meds so I had to reboard the ship and told my group I'd meet back up with them. On my way back right at the spot I was supposed to meet with them I saw someone get punched in the face and mugged. It pretty much ruined the port and I didnt feel comfortable having my wife and kid out there. So I had us leave early. Mother in law and sister in law stayed, dont think they were happy about me taking them back to the ship. Too bad. We did get an invite to the helipad sail away for suite guests with the ship officers and they let me bring my whole party. So everyone had a great treat. I thought it was amazing, Mohamed saw me taking a picture of the bridge and told me to come see him later. I also saw one of the fine line performers out there. I didnt want to impede in his time but I did tell him I recognized him and told him he was great. He seemed surprised I recognized him, but he was actually memorable. Started to rain so we had to leave otherwise I would stayed for the sunset. Headed back to the suite and waited for the sunset from our balcony. We agreed that we needed a coastal kitchen night. I really wish we had gone earlier in the cruise. My wife got the mushroom consomme and short ribs, I got french onion soup and the shortribs. Daughter got steak again (steak every single dinner service... that's my girl!). The food was amazing. @Lovetocruise2002 I am #teamCK now. (Not sure I'm tagging people right) Too bad we will still need to have group meals otherwise I wouldnt go anywhere else. Dessert we had ricotta cheesecake, coconut custard and the chocolate cake. Very happy the lounge bar had port wine, because I forgot to being on a bottle. I researched didnt looke like the venue's had any. Got that that car CK has some, I'll try a few other bars tomorrow. It really tied in the desserts for me. Delicious! Went to Mohamed to see what he wanted to see me for. He noticed me taking pics of the bridge and worked together a tour for me, my wife and daughter. This is something I really wanted to do. Both of concierge have been amazing. Such a great treat for tomorrow! We went to see Columbus the Musical. I really wasnt sure about this when I read about it, but it was great. Every show has been amazing. Not able to convince family to watch the kid for another night, guess my initial post about having plenty of childcare was wrong. Just means more time with my 2 favorite people though ( as long as I actually get them both during the day) But since they had to go in early for bed and I have insomnia, I met up with a buddy that is with us and we hit a couple bars, saw the 90s party and went to love and marriage. Really wish my wife could have been there, we would have been picked for sure. Still it was really funny. Tomorrow last sea day. Then coco cay overwater cabanas on saturday!!! Where the hell did this week go. Wish it wasnt ending so soon! Lovetocruise2002, JLMoran, SteveinSC and 8 others 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossdog421 Posted January 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Coco Cay tomorrow! I'll probably do a full detailed Beach Club and Overwater Cabana write up some time after the cruise. I'll still post pics and a little something here. In the meantime ive got some time to myself again, so I have claimed a suite deck cabana to relax in.

SnickerTail Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Out of curiosity, when did you have to give the names for the people going to the beach club cabana? We have one reserved for our cruise but are only a family of four - wondering if we can invite someone we meet on the cruise (our Coco Cay day is at the end of the cruise) or if we will have to have the names at the beginning of the cruise.

WAAAYTOOO Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Thanks for the maps. That's very helpful. I guess I didn't realize that there were going to be 2 sections of the over the water cabanas. I wonder if all 20 of them are done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't given out names yet. From what I've seen so far I get the bracelets tomorrow when we get to the cabana area. Only thing I have so far is a single ticket with my name on it.

bossdog421 Posted February 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 We have come to the determination that we are cruise people. This entire trip has been amazing. The staff has been wonderful, the experiences have been great, and the memories will last. Very sad it's almost over! Today I got some alone time on the suite deck to unwind, we toured the bridge, saw the hideaway heist show (another amazing show!!), got dressed up for formal night, and the kid got sick a bit at the main dining room... I don't blame her lobster night made me want to yack too(good thing we had a great lunch at CK!). I recognized a few people in the audience from the Columbus musical. It's odd they seem to want to deny they are in the shows but then gush a bit at compliments. The guy was impressed that I knew he was the main shark, my daughter got a kick out of the one girl when I said I knew she was a cheeseburger.

GrandmaAirplane Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Quick questions: I noticed in one of your pics a jet ski in the corner... are they allowed near the area where the OWC guests would be swimming or snorkeling? Did you see any jet skis in the waters around the Beach Club? I also noticed in another pic that there were a couple steps along the wooden walkway going down towards the beach shower. Did you notice any ramps and how much of the wooden walkways would make the Beach Club accessible, or difficult, for someone with limited mobility? Thanks! *jetski is in left-hand end of the frame.

Lovetocruise2002 Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Doesn't look too crowded. Do you happen to know what the max number is that they allow into the Beach Club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossdog421 Posted February 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Jet skis are life guards patroling the area. No guests on skis over here The entire beach club area is very accessible. Cement or wooden paths to every area. Sand wheel chairs, ramps, and the pool is accessible too.

Even mine has a few things not completely finished. Music player thing not working. Some items like the poles should have rope around them. The cabana next to me had no curtains but mine did. Not sure most people would have even noticed. This is how the poles should look This is how one of the others looks Some of the other people's cabanas had them all missing.
