You also!

Laundry room on Deck 14.

Here's the Steamers menu.

Here's what's in our cabin and our solutions.

I like the glitz and bling of the new machines... just more exciting. It'd be nice to have a big win but I just play for entertainment.

Wow... congrats!

Apparently so. Picture taken from my deck 14 balcony... which has has one.

We haven't been able to speak to anyone yet but here are the menus. I don't know which nights they are serving. I don't really like the menu but I like the add ons.

Sitting in the theater waiting on Magic To Do. We haven't seen this one. Formal night. Filet mignon for dinner was good. Captains champagne waterfall started at 6:30. Grabbed a glass of champagne and found some good seats.

I'll check tomorrow.

Went to the casino earlier. Good news is it's spread out and not cramped. Bad news is it's 90% full of old machines. I'm just playing small amounts and when I look at what others are betting they're doing the same. No one is at the tables and also the machines are half unused. Lunch was in the Lido again and it was just OK. Today is a chill day because tomorrow starts 7 port days in a row and we have plans for all but one.

Haven't heard a word... Captain is booking it at 21 knots to make up time.

Scavenger hunt

Laundry room on deck 14.

We have left Grand Turk.

I am on the Emerald. Below is the laundry list and bag. We sent laundry out to be pressed the day we boarded and it was in our cabin last evening. I'll take a picture of the laundry room today.

Glad we ordered room service last night.

Yesterday we had coffee and Danish in the IC followed by a talk on St. Kitts and Guadeloupe by destination expert Gary. By then it was time for lunch in the Lido and then an afternoon swim in the adult Lotus pool. After cleaning up for the evening we went to Club Fusion to see about the cruise long scavenger hunt. We decided not to participate due to the weird requests. It mostly involved getting crew members to do certain things and taking pictures. For example find 3 cabin stewards and line them up from tall to short for a picture. Find 2 crew and have them do the walk like an Egyptian thing. Sorry but I think they have enough to do. We finished the evening in the theater with Shea Rafferty Mix Tape. He was very good and at moments awesome. Tonight is our first formal night.

We've eaten 2 nights in the dining room and the food is hit or miss. My Yankee pot roast on Sunday was very good. Last night the pork ribs were good... the scallops not so much nor the chicken parm nor the fish dish the gentleman next to us had. Service has been awesome. We have a table for 2 at 5 every night.

We are along side Grand Turk this morning to disembark 2 passengers and 2 crew who need medical attention. Prayers for those in distress. We can see the Mardi Gras on the horizon. This will delay our arrival into St. Kitts.

Well after you go thru security... all lines lead there... if you have your Medallion you go one way to the escalators and if not you go the other way and get in the que to pick up your Medallion. Wouldn't hold you up at all.

Yes so much for Elite/Suite benefits... there were 2 lines... blue and green. Green line was empty. Maybe they should reconsider and Green should be also priority. The Blue line would probably only be half as long.

We arrived at Park by the Ports around 10:15 and it was busy. We got on the big bus and headed for Terminal 21. Traffic was crazy. The terminals were crazy. I admire the bus drivers for weaving thru the traffic without hitting anything. The line for Terminal 21 was just about wrapped around the building if you didn't have your Medallion, which we didn't because we had just gotten off a different cruise ship the day before. It took about an hour to get inside the building and surprisingly the crowd was calm and patient. Once thru security we retrieved our Medallions and were on the ship in 5 minutes, dropped luggage off in the cabin and headed to Lido for lunch. Options were excellent and food was good. We spent the day unpacking and exploring. Dinner was at 5 and we retired early to our cabin. It was a long day. I'll be happy to answer any questions. Some pictures of the Wheelhouse and Salty Dog cafe.

Captain just announced critically ill patient will be disembarked. They pulled the gangway back in and we think maybe they are adjusting water level because it was a couple feet off the ground. Prayers for the ill passenger...
