Late to the comedy club but I'm here. Happy to see seats. Finished my lemoncello bottle.

Five minutes till showtime. I really don't think I've ever seen a main theater on a Conquest class ship this full.

Heard a lot of good things about Andy's R18+ show. It's always been at an impossible time but finally I'm going to make it. Twenty minutes to showtime and the bottom level already almost filled in. I don't think I'm going to have my own little bubble in the balcony.

At the red frog for a couple songs from the Freedom Rockband then I've got somewhere to be. Thriller 🎶

I love that tomato dish especially whatever that sauce is that it's in. Very good. The chicken was still too dry but not as bad as last time. Such a shame because when it's not, that's a really nice piece of chicken. The cake was very under done but that's how i like it. Overall a good meal considering I really struggle with this particular menu.

It was in such a yummy sauce you couldn't tell 😋

WCMC with two ice creams.

Don't forget about the kids menu. My mom was feeling like a big kid and got two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

The caprese is about the only salad I eat. This one was middle of the road as capreses go. The lasagna was good. A little dried out on the one corner. I've found that to be the case on every cruiseline which is why I just get the half portion. Corn Chilli and quinoa baked tomato and cornmeal crusted chicken 753.

Thank you. It was even more stunning in person. Simply amazing sight to behold. I'm not even a lawn mower kinda guy but I thought the tech was neat. I can't imagine it working too well on a regular lawn though. They have a really nice setup on their newest ship with about 50 toppings to customize a salad with.

Caprese 735 And appetizer portion of lasagne bolognese.

Not a soup person. I tried the Flatbread once, not good.

Table ready at 707. Tonight's menu. Lido dinner.

I forgot to post these earlier. I wanted to highlight the salad choices since they never end up on my plate.

She won't be happy if I don't pay my bills 🤣

I did the space needle in Seattle and the Arc De Triomphe in Paris. Both were spectacular. The climb in Paris almost did me in but it was worth it.

I think it's a little bit of both for me.

Checked in for dinner at 633 with a 50-60 wait. Dining room was super quiet last night for Halloween. Guess they all came back tonight.

I was eyeing bonsai sushi. Steakhouse at $48 is a tough sell when I'm going to need to sit through a two hour dinner service. Last trip there, which was this ship in January, I was not impressed with the food. I typically only go on a casino comp.

Guess who still isn't one of the cool kids. Tonight's menu is my least favorite too. There was some talk of going to the buffet.

Off to get that last mile in. I forgot to add an hour and thought it was earlier still than it actually is.

It got more crowded later in the day, but it was not overrun with crowds like Barcelona and Naples (and I imagine Rome if I had gone). It was busy for sure, but I felt like the space was able to accommodate the number of people that were there. I did not have time to go up the tower, but I am not a fan for lines I don't think I would have tried to go up if I did have time. Every one of the lecturers were very well dressed. I wonder if that is a requirement or just the way they dress out of habit. I would definitely be casually dressed if allowed. It could be part of my, big German word that I had to look up. Schadenfreud or something 🙂

The ride was a long one, over one hour each way, but the countryside was beautiful along the way. I could not get very many pictures from the moving bus, but it was simply stunning. This was a great tour and I highly recommend it for those with mobility challenges. It is "easy" but not accessible. For those without mobility problems, there are cheaper options for a similar tour.
