Lovetocruise2002 Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Breakfast at Olé this morning. Normally, we would never eat here. We usually book Club level and there is breakfast available in the club lounge. However, the Club Lounge is currently under renovations and they are offering breakfast here as a replacement. It’s a buffet. Our bellies are full. Good quality food here, and the place was packed. Service was just mediocre though.

LandstromCruise Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 @Matt just listened to the podcast. Sounds like you have extra space on your cruise since the wife isn't going. What time should I meet you at the terminal Neesa, Lovetocruise2002 and PPPJJ-GCVAB 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovetocruise2002 Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Dinner was a Serafina Miami. A more relaxed vibe here compared to the location we visited in NYC.

Lovetocruise2002 Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Today was a great day! It’s so much more relaxing to fly in two days early. I am loving this full day in between travel day, and cruise day. We did this last cruise before Odyssey, and now for Icon. This is definitely the way to go for us moving forward, depending on school schedules. We ended our day today with dessert and drinks from Toro Toro. This trip, we have almost $150 of F&B credit to use up from the resort fee, ambassador credit, and credit from the Club lounge being closed. That gave us an opportunity to try different things at Toro Toro. Tonight’s dessert is something I have long wanted to try, but have never wanted to pay upfront for. It was delicious! I posted the video of the “Bomba” going off on IG stories. Jax, Neesa, MaryS and 6 others 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone ventured over to WJ just to see layout and actually went inside the venue? It went super fast once boarding started from what I'm hearing. Bag drop off to the ship in 15-20 mins. WJ layout is a lot like Wonder. It hasn't been insane in here yet. While I have zero appreciation for the seafood extravaganza..they have fresh cherries!
