Now, I have seen dogs chasing cars on land, but I think this is the first time I have seen one chasing and barking at a scooter on the jogging track.

Pro tip of the day Don’t walk thru El Loco Fresh on a very windy day, unless you want to chance getting hit with a flying plate of beans. It looked like they just got done filming Animal House food fight scene. I felt bad for the clean up crew. No self serve handling of utensils here today. Something must be going on.

Technology update. Starlink is good at times, and bad at times. Had trouble connecting in the solarium for a while. Plugs in the cabin - better than some ships, but rapidly becoming old school. Two usb type A ports at the desk and three us plugs and one European. There is one us plug by the bed, and I haven’t bothered to look under it. It seems technology has moved mainly to usb Type C plugs now. I bought this little gem this summer to charge all our devices. Five usb Type C and two usb Type A plugs. Enough power to charge my iPad, two iPhones, two Apple Watches, and power banks. we have two Anker power banks we bring along to make sure we maintain power while ashore.

Maybe time for some random things, since I am lounging around on this sea day. We have 1,470 kids onboard, under the age of 17. I would have guessed there were more. I don’t know if they counted Daryl in that total. They said to expect more on our Utopia sailing this summer. If I wasn’t adding three to that total, I would avoid that summer sailing.

I know it is early to think about departure, but I filled out our departure information and requested the latest time of 9-9:30. So what do they give us? The earliest. Probably because we are doing self assist. I think since they said we can depart “whenever you are ready”, we will be close to last off.

My son said this today. I told him it was probably no more questions than this guy got, checking into the hotel with his blowup.

We went to Private Stock Headliner Showtime in the theatre. They were a good band, but way, way too loud. We were all the way in the back of the balcony, and I was still getting noise level notifications. When it hit 101 db, we were already on our way out the door. A lot of others left too, and I think it was because of the noise level. Don’t know why Royal doesn’t keep the volume levels lower. Maybe they have stock in hearing aid companies.

A couple of photos from snorkeling today. Not the clearest water or most colorful fish, but ok for where we were.

I think it was a good decision to come to Cabana beach, instead of Mambo Beach. We walked over to Mambo, which is beside cabana beach, and it was insanely packed. Mambo was where the ship excursion went. Better service and fewer people here. Ready to meet our taxi back. Will have to wait to see if my snorkeling photos turned out.

Today is a beach day for us. Took a cab to Cabana Beach, rented some loungers and a thatch roof umbrella, and ate currently sampling drinks. Daryl is too young for a blue curaçao mojito Tasty
