If I did that I might have a meltdown!

I just noticed McDonald's is serving icebergers.

9⁰ F. Warmer than expected this morning. Good day to eat burrrr-ritos.

Maybe you should send some pics of you enjoying the game all nice and warm to your friends working the sidelines. 😆 It might warm them up!

You can see the show schedule/times and all the other activities/times on the RC app. On the app you can look at all ships and all sailing. After you turn the app on click the top middle emblem that looks like a schedule or calendar. Then look at the bottom of the page and click "change ship/dates" . Once that page loads scroll to the bottom and click "Browse our ships". There you can pick Icon, January 27th. Good luck.

Field goals should be a challenge. Remember the 60's and 70s when almost all games were outside.

I am renting a wheelchair on Icon. After watching videos and checking out deck plans, to me the elevator setup appears it will be better then other ships. There are two main sections of elevators, a group of 10 and a group of 12. You will pick your deck and it will tell you what door to go to. I can see where the 1st day could be challenging the 1st few hours but it's like that on all ships. Also disembarking. Speaking of getting around on a scooter or wheelchair, it looks like Hideaway Beach on Coco Cay is a no go. I watched the video of the Icon crew going there. I didn't see anywhere you could ride without getting stuck in sand. I am guessing it was so loud and crowded because it was a crew party. If the environment was always like that I don't see many of us here wanting to go.

You got me thinking about what we will do when we are on then I just remembered we are usually on deck 8 but will be on deck 12 this time so probably no need to go up like we usually do. If we were on deck 8 I would first select deck 14, have one of us get off, while another holds the door open, and select the deck we will disembark. I would guess it would turn around. .... maybe

It take awhile to figure out CC posting. It was a big challenge for me my 1st review. I remember the 1st review I was trying to upload 4k videos and several were having difficulty viewing. I learn how to downgrade them quickly. Let me know if I can help in any way. I am thankful you are willing to start it a week early. Maybe Ken will post some when he does his 3 days before we board.

The space between the pics are perfect. Most enjoy the space because sometimes when people don't space them the pics blend together. The only thing I would additionally do with this post, if I remember, is click at the bottom of the space and delete back to the bottom of the last sentence so there is not so much space at the bottom.

Hey Patricia I just showed my grandson this iceberg. His response. ...... Oh wow! That sailor needs to be careful! They don't want a Titanic repeat! 😆 BTW, keep the pics coming. We are enjoying.

I just noticed on the roll call you downloaded the video to your computer. Will the computer editor let you save it as a mp4? Are you bringing the computer?

Not sure if you have ever noticed but you can pull up on the app any ship and date you want so you can look at the January 27th if you want. Do understand that things can and probably will change by March 30th. Hope you enjoy the Icon. March 30th may seem far off but it will be here soon!

I have a Samsung android so when I edit .mov video and save, it saves as mpg4. I do not use an iPhone so I don't know what your options are. Might need to google.

You might want to practice putting space between pics. The way I do it is right off, before typing, I hit the return button several times to create space. Then I cluck at the top of the space and type. Then I hit return and insert pic below what I typed. After the first pic loads hit the return button to create a space below. Then load the next pic. Also, when adding pics you can use "Add Files" below or paste in a pic. Sometimes using paste seems easier. The downside to pasting is the pic covers to a png which will be much larger than a jpg and take longer to load. Before loading delete out the extra space below.

The video is having a hard time loading because it's big. It also will not show for those with androids because iPhone videos are .mov format. If the movie is converted to .mp4 format then all can view. I cut your video to 26 seconds and converted to .mp4. Clipped.mp4

We are cruising the Inaugural January 27. You can see the Showtimes on the app now. They came out yesterday.

It's been a long time since I looked at this topic. I am sure you know that there is an option you can choose that stops the charging at 85%. Long ago I had it turned on for about 2 weeks and then turned it off. Right now I have fast and superfast charge turned on not that I really need it. With that said my phone seems to hold as long of a charge as it always had. Also I rarely notice the phone get warm from superfast charging. My phone usually charges while I am in bed. I really don't need superfast charge but I have no concern leaving it on and sofar it has not caused any problems. Last night it charged 100%. I have been moderately using it for at least 10 hours today with Bluetooth on and right now it has 68% left. With all of that said I have no concerns.

I seldom like pizza other than what we make. I grow garlic and tomatoes and use them to make the pizza sauce. I also like roasting tomatoes and adding them to the pizza.

@CSHS1979 Let John know I was thinking of him today. Ever since he gave the advice to put the dough in the oven for a minute before preparing, I've been doing it and it works great!

This brings back great memories. Sharon and our cruise friends ran the Disney marathon before and ran the half marathon several times. My race was to get in a couple of rides and then make it to the finish line before they got there. 🙃 The pic of the grandkids walking up is great! Thanks for posting!

Happy Birthday! Love the pic! Sweeties.

We had another couple with us and we split it between us based on it looking so big. BIG MISTAKE! They taste so good! Do not share! Also Sharon and I shared the Halibut fish and chips. It's expensive but we wished we would of each got our own. So good. Do some research on Skagway trails. There are several at different lengths and difficulty. Alaska can get expensive if you pay for excursions at each port. There are cool things to do on your own with a little research.

Earlier last night SpaceX launched more Starlink satellites. Kenzie's family saw it and had no idea what it was! 😆 IMG_0151_1.mp4

I am glad you enjoyed the review. I loved going to Alaska. Before leaving I thought I would not like it as much because I don't like cold. Looking back it was one of my favorite cruises. The Sitka National Historical Park is well worth going. Not a bad walk from the pier too. Find a map online. Are you going to Skagway? Many like doing the train and other excursions, this is another place to explore on your own. There are several beautiful trails to explore. After the trails, go downtown and get a Doughboy! Then go to Skagway Brewing Co. just for the Halibut. So good! I am sure you will love this cruise!
