Lovetocruise2002 Posted March 15 Author Report Share Posted March 15 We were supposed to go see adult comedy tonight but we decided to cancel it and do family movie night instead.

MamaShark Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 @Lovetocruise2002 Shane’s genie special was worth waiting for and I bet the girls enjoyed the private session w/the pub singer. That was a very generous thoughtful Gift from Genie Shane! Our genie arranged for the pianist/vocalist (also from the pub) to play the grand piano in our RLS. We requested most of the music. Genie and pianist joined us in hilarious laughter filled singalong. The awkward part was how much to tip the pianist? Let’s just say hubs tipped him bigly. It was big fun - an unforgettable experience but I think I’d like a complimentary Genie Special better. What a memorable week to celebrate the graduate with your beautiful family. I’ve had so many smiles and a couple lol’s…just following along. Sweety, SweetPea and Cactus527 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovetocruise2002 Posted March 15 Author Report Share Posted March 15 Totally slept in this morning. I forgot that Jamaica is an hour behind and I did not turn my phone off from automatic settings. Even with airplane mode on, my phone will automatically reset unless I change it, which I forgot to. Anyway, have done much because I ended up sleeping an extra hour than I intended to. Off to the FlowRider for private session #2 and play the supportive wife MaryS, bellemiche, Neesa and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recogneyes Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 19 hours ago, Lovetocruise2002 said: I think we definitely got the “genie special” this afternoon! I have to say, I am not easily surprised but I did not see this one coming! When getting drinks with @recogneyes, she asked me if we had been to the pub. I said no and that we are not huge fans of the pub in general. She said we have to at least pop by for a visit to see the pub signer because he is really good. Later then evening, we ran into @recogneyes again at playmakers, and Stephen, the pub signer was there. She introduced us and we said will try to find time to see him. If you are wondering where I am going with this, keep reading… Today is a sea day, and Shane overheard us saying last night that we might do El Loco today. He suggested that we do a delivery because it might be busy and our kids never get anywhere early. When we came back to our room to eat, this is what we found. Well how cool is that! We had a good chat with Stephen last night…at the pub…and he told us he had a great time with your family yesterday. Now you can say you have experienced the Royal Loft concert series.

Definitely better in a group of friends. That picture of hubby and Shane reminded me of a story he told us where a guest on the flowrider soaked him the week prior to our cruise. There is more to the story but after reviewing camera footage it was determined it was intentional and the guest lost their flowrider privileges for the week. You will have to ask him about it because no-one tells a story quite like Shane.

He said if he had the opportunity again to share the rental with someone he would be totally up for it, but if it was just him, he might get too tired. He did say that he felt like he learned the most this cruise. And he also said that with the 2 FlowRiders, he actually felt like the lines were longer.

That's kind of sad that the performers work so hard to try and put on a good show but people leave because of the bad reputation the movie has.. it's a shame.

We ran into @recogneyes and her Hubby and Andrew & Lisa were there too. This was already way better than Cats! I was invited to do car bombs and politely declined because I never touch beer.

I'm sure I mentioned this before, but my wife had seen Cats on Broadway when she was a child and absolutely loved it... not so much as an adult! We both gave it a chance on Oasis despite the negative reviews (I had never seen it) and hung on to the very end! People walked out in our performance as well. I do think they must be used to it... I'm sure that's part of the reason why the shortened the performance as part of the amplification. I told my wife I'd be happy with a single performance of "Memories" and then we could walk out... I agree, the cast and costumes were excellent, but we did not care for the production as a whole.
