Anyone check the original date of this thread?

Doh!

Ports of Call

All alcohol purchased in ports will be stored for safekeeping until the end of the voyage. The retained items will be available for collection in a designated lounge on the morning of debarkation for cruise durations 5 days and less; for cruise durations 6 days and more, alcohol will be delivered to guest staterooms after 7:00pm, the evening prior to debarkation (some exceptions may apply).

In the past your purchase was delivered the cabin on the last night. Those days are gone; you must now go get your purchase early in the morning before you disembark. We've seen that line a few times and tthe bargains don't look worth the hassle.

I just posted Funtimes for 5 days(3-7) on another thread. That way the post will make it to the Breeze page.

What nights will be formal? Monday and Friday

Is there a band poolside or just the entertainers at the poolside bars? Don't remember a band poolside, but we did not hang out at the pool.

Where can I find the movie schedule? Not sure

Since we will sailing during NFL playoffs where can we watch the games? Red Frog Pub and a lot of TVs playing games.

Best entrée in the Cucina del Capitano restaurant? I had the steak which was very good and my wife had the chicken alfredo and she loved it. The best dessert was the lemon gelato by far. The tiramisu was also good. Be sure to eat lunch in the Cucina. They have a build your own pasta with lots of selections. We ate there the last sea day and on embarkation. It was empty on embarkation and packed on the sea day.

This is the October 23-30, 2016 cruise. Someone requested these on another thread. Here are Days 3 to 7. I am missing days 1 and 2.

I have pictures on my phone from the tour but they are too large to upload. Shoot me an email to my username at yahoo.com if you would like to see them.

Depends on what it is but probably not worth the hassle. You start and end at the lockers.

You will be walking for about 45 minutes through the jungle before the tubing. The walk is pretty neat and goes by quickly. But wear comfortable shoes that you don't mind getting wet.

Our guide stopped and let us swim in the river in the cave. Very cool! Literally and figuratively.

The lunch at the end was good. It was grilled chicken and rice and beans.

Yes, we did this tour in October. The lockers are $5 large and 3 for small or something like that. Large will hold 1 backpack.

You will love the tour although it is a fairly long bus ride.

My wife and I cruised back in October. We had a Cove balcony on the Breeze. Total cost for the cruise was about $1500 for a 7 day cruise including taxes. That's 42 meals, 7 nights of hotel, we went to at least one show per night and had access to a lot of other amenities we did not use. Seems like a pretty good value to me.

The food was good and the entertainment was excellent. Certainly it was not las vegas level but we were not paying $100+ per show.

And most importantly, I met a bunch of nice people I now consider friends.

Was the Quest game played?

We did not go but I remember it being advertised.

We were on the same cruise. Thanks for the pictures! I was the guy on Deck 5 by the hot tub smoking a cigar most days. :)

Thanks for the post. We will be in 2366 in Dec 17. We were in 2389 in October.

When we selected that cabin on the ship, the future cruise lady did ask us if we were sure we wanted to be under the galley. I think 2389 is too and we heard nothing. Now I am a pretty heavy sleeper.

The person doing the screening said they were working off new rules that they got last night. No problems donating this afternoon.

My wife loved the lemon sorbet in La Cucina

Got a call this morning from my local blood bank asking me to come in and donate platelets. I asked about being deferred after visiting Honduras. The initial answer was yes, I would have to wait one year. After i explained I was only in Mahogany Bay she did some more checking. I was finally cleared to donate since I had only been in the country less than 24 hours.

I only post this because I found a lot of conflicting information in my Internet searches.

I second Galveston park and cruise. Well worth the extra $20 to park indoors and not mess with a shuttle. Definitely will use them again. We were on the Breeze the week before and we loved our Cove balcony. We had 2389.

It looked to us that the ones toward the bow could get a lot of spray in rough weather.

We did enjoy ours and booked 2366 on our trip in Dec 2017. We did want a port side cabin so to have a better view while in Galveston.

We had 2389 on the Breeze and had no problems even in rough seas and heavy rain.

I had the the lamb shank on the Breeze 2 weeks ago. If it is the same same dish, it has a curry flavor. It wasn't baaaaaaaad.:D seriously, it was great.

Thank you! That looks like the card I got.

I bought some cigars at the vendor in mahogany bay. I lost their card. They were very good and would like to get more. Does anyone know the name?

If you order the same appetizer, then they serve it family style. If you order different appetizers, then you get your own plate. The entrees and desserts are individually served even if you order the same thing.

Highly recommend the lemon sorbet for dessert. Incredibly good.

We had FTTF on Breeze. We were off the ship and through customs in less than 20 minutes. We were on the road by 9:15. We checked our luggage. New personal record for me by a lot.

I would go with Specs. If its a Sunday, then there is an HEB on 45. They have a decent selection.

Mike announced last night on the Breeze that Mikey got promoted to full CD effective yesterday at 6PM.
