Lovetocruise2002 Posted March 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 So not sure if you remember when we took our star class sailing on HM with Araceli. The girls called Araceli and wanted to order 3 slices of pizza, remember this came instead… Well, the kids are now 3 years older and the 15 year old wanted Bacon Cheese fries from Johnny Rockets today. She went down there to get a to go order but did not mention she was star class so they turned her away. She texted Allan to see if they could send her order to the room and not sure what she asked for, but there was enough fries to feed the whole family! Life lesson: Be very specific about the quantity you order. WAAAYTOOO, sammy79, SpeedNoodles and 10 others 6 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How man outfits are you all having to work with? Did you run and buy some stuff before you boarded the ship? We all have one “day time” outfit for each and a few extras in our carry on. That is normally what we pack. Hubby has all his clothes with him but missing some shoes. So trying to dress up our leggings and skorts and passing them off as evening wear lol. We went to publix before we boarded to grab some essentials like toothpaste, sunscreen, and hairspray. That’s about it.

Lovetocruise2002 Posted March 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 Tonight’s dinner was in 150CP. It was good but comparing it to Allure a few months back, I think Allure was slightly better. Not anything specific to nit pick about, but just overall taste and quality, Allure gets one up. Service was excellent as always. GregD, CravingaCruise, bellemiche and 8 others 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovetocruise2002 Posted March 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 Day 3: At sea The ship is still rocking a ton this morning. I have to say that I am quite surprised. This is the first time on an Oasis class ship that I have felt so much motion. Just talking to @Neesaand @tiny260, doesn’t seem to matter where you are, it is felt everywhere. I sure hope it settles soon. No more rain today though, windy but much warmer. WAAAYTOOO, MamaShark, CravingaCruise and 2 others 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kateemn Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 We got off the Oasis on Sunday and I felt the ship rocking and rolling all week; first time I've ever felt so much motion on a cruise ship. Even during our port day at Costa Maya, tied up sturdily to the pier, there was still a TON of motion. Sorry you all are still experiencing that.

Neesa Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 @bellemiche saved the day in the escape room, Natalie was impressive to observe. 5:55 we escaped! Nice sunny day today, the ship is still rocking though. Coastal Kitchen for a late breakfast and were blessed to be able to chat with @Lovetocruise2002 who just brightens the day! Derick has us at Chops tonight and had us at Portside for lunch, had to cancel that lunch because that's just to much! Ice skating show tonight. Cabin is beautiful, a little tight upstairs but lovely just the same. Balcony is better then I thought it would be. We enjoy seeing all the activity and the water.

bellemiche Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 Last night we had dinner at Izumi and we really enjoyed it. The "She's A Geisha" cocktail was so delicious that I had two. For appetizers we had the pork gyoza dumplings and the firecracker shrimp spring rolls. For dinner, two of us shared the Izumi spider roll, spicy crispy shrimp roll and the truffled creamy lobster tempura roll (our favourite out of the three). My mom had the Yaki upon with shrimp and she really liked it. For dessert we chose the mochi ice cream and the chocolate lava cake (it was more of a regular chocolate cake). We said we will try to make it back again for lunch. Lovetocruise2002, RWDW1204, CravingaCruise and 5 others 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so happy to report the mushroom soup is back and very delicious. We are requesting to dine there again before this sailing ends.
