Feels very low energy on the ship tonight. I guess a long beach party day, followed by the end of cruise blues. Mood is sombre. I’m at pop quiz trivia right now and there’s only like 4 teams. 🤣 I’m going to check out the stores in a few minutes and try to spend the $75 credit remaining. Other than that, nothing planned until Circus Disco and Studio 72 at 11pm and 11:30pm. Will I make it?

This is what’s waiting for me at home tomorrow

Wish I had known this ahead of time! I ended up booking a day room rather than deal with luggage

YOLO right? Lamb sausage and baklava.

I was worried I wouldn’t be able to use all my bar tab and credit. I think I had $800 in total. I did good! The bar tab should see me through tonight- I’m not having a crazy one this evening. And I will try to blow the $75 in the shops, though there’s not a whole lot of choice…

I said I got distracted by The Dock earlier. It’s no secret that this is my favourite place on the ship. It’s perfect. They have daybeds, aft views, and a Mezze Cart. I headed right here for a little snack. But two minutes after it came, the waiter brought me another menu that o haven’t seen before. Hence the distraction. Maybe I’m just never here at the right time. Anyway. Now I regret getting what I’ve already had before because I want this new stuff. But it’s also butter chicken night. The struggle is real.

I wish the pictures did this place justice but they really don’t. The different shades of blue in the water were amazing but my pictures just don’t capture it.

The pics I did manage to get

After I had my fill of coconut drinks I headed out to find a taxi to go back to the ship. Once again, I had no idea what it should cost. I found a guy who said he would give me a “quick tour” for $25. Seemed like a good deal to me. Who knows. He was great and really did show me some places that I wouldn’t have seen just coming back, Sadly, that was also about the same time my phone died. So not only could I not take pictures, but I couldn’t call 911 if he decided to murder me! Lol, Actually he was a good guy and I ended up giving him $40 as he took me around for just under an hour!

I’m having issues with photos randomly inserting themselves

Sorry. Got distracted at The Dock. Some of the pics

I just got back to the shop. I’ve had a wonderful afternoon but my phone died so I only got pics of part of it (mostly beach club). I left the beach club around 1:30 as the pool party was in full swing the thump thump thump music is not my thing on the beach. If you’re into that, it seemed like a blast! I grabbed a tram back to fisherman’s village and found a taxi to take me to radio beach. I shared with another couple and we paid $10 each. No idea if that was good or bad. I found coconut Brian and also the famous conch - but then realized I don’t eat that. lol. The beach was beautiful and pretty empty and very peaceful.

Well obviously it didn’t

Let’s see if this works. Pool party started. I left. Lol

Planning on it. That was my least fave on Scarlet but mainly because I think the cast hadn’t done it before so it really glitchy and stilted!

Now I’ve been partying like a 20 something all week and had a blast but now they just cranked up the awful pool party music I’m thinking it’s time to vacate. When im at a beach I like it to be relaxing and peaceful…🙄

Lunch at the beach club, it was decent. The flies drove me nuts!

I came to the beach club early ish. Just had lunch. Going to skip out once the pool party starts and go check out radio beach.

Breakfast at The Wake this morning. I got the brioche French toast and the avocado Benedict. I think both these were the first misses for food on board. The French toast was hard and had way too much syrup. The avo Benny was jam packed with spinach but I could barely find the avocado.

What’s up n (excited to see that tonight has Butter Chicken in the galley)

Bimini today!

Dinner at Gumbae was ok. As I expected. I didn’t take any pictures you are seated at a communal group table and it seemed weird. Virgin does so much right that when something is “off” it stands out. Tonight, the shared table was me, a couple, and a family of four from Korea. It was awkward. I’m an extrovert and chatted to everyone but the family just wanted to talk to one another and the couple were couple-y. Like how hard would it have been to match up singles with singles? Anyways, it was fine. After dinner I went to Ship Show again.I didn’t have the food, but wanted to watch the show. I somehow ended up with everyone’s drinks on my tab. So now I gotta get that fixed. From Ship Show I went to Dual Really again. I mentioned that it’s different every time. I mean the story and concept is the same but there are little things that differ or the dances/stunts b c change. Tonight was the best one. I keep saying this. Virgin has the most talented cast ever! Ended the night at the Manor for Boom Vang. Tomorrow is Bimini and then we get kicked off Sunday! Booo.

It’s taken 6 days to realize this, but we no longer have the black soap!
