@TravelBluebird...our 1sr HAL cruise was on Oosterdam just before the shut down. Our 1st venture away from Carnival and yes we are now "older" and also Platinum with Carnival. I thoroughly enjoyed The Origin show on HAL. We sail on Koningsdam to Hawaii in 3 weeks. My gift to myself is a spa pass I love the heated lounges, hydro pool, steam room etc. While I enjoyed all our Carnival cruises we definitely prefer smaller ships in our retirement years. Watched your precruise video today. Looking forward to following along this cruise. If you ever need a top notch TA I know one who is also a very good YT. Susan

@TxTeach79...wow that shower looks amazing. Chill day without cheers today, relaxing before back to the grind. This has been a great review, so sorry about your "toof" issue, hope it gets resolved when you return home. Next up you can follow the TRIBE cruise like they have been following you and @HelloItsMeB. Enjoy your Sunday in Miami! -

Gotta love days like that! -
@Haljo1935..OMG thank you so much for the amazing spa pics you posted earlier today! The weather is a bit brisk here today, breezy with little sun so despite trying to sit outside and read I am inside and have been researching our port stops in Hawaii. For Ensenada, we have never been there, I found that it is the "home of fish tacos" so that may be on our list as we both love fish, talapia is NOT fish in my vocabulary for sure. I so enjoy the research part especially when I have lot of time on my hands. Sure going to miss your reporting, it has been wonderful. One final question. Have you watched any of the Lido pool side movies? If so was it difficult to find a seat? We have found on 7 day cruises it is often tough finding a seat so we just go to the cabin and watch something there as HAL's selection is usually good. We are BIG fans of BB Kings and the other live music venues. Safe travels home and please post a link here for your future cruises so we can follow along! Susan

You got that right.....I can count the times on one hand in my life that I have "let it all hang out"! -
I purchased the spa pass as a gift for myself....as I love the heated loungers, the hydro pool and the steam rooms as well. Our room is on deck 8 aft so I won't have too long of a trek to get to the spa. I am happy to see that the hydro pool is in a separate room from other areas as it can be loud when in the pool

@TxTeach79...sea days are good recovery days ....onward to your next adventure! Make sure @HelloItsMeB realizes the struggle only becomes larger the older we get so go for the gusto NOW! Have a GREAT day! Your excursion yesterday sure looked like a lot of fun. Sort of reminded me of the excursion we did in Antigua where pole dancing was involved induced by rum punch! -
