I have a full island excursion and although we'll see a few of the 365 beaches Antigua is known for, we'll only stop at one, Frye's Beach, for 2 hours... -
First port day today, Antigua. I learned I've been mispronouncing it all my life. Pronounced like "Antiga".
-
I will probably have Bonsai Sushi tonight, but here's the MDR menu.
-
Chicken tacos with the yummy orange habanero sauce.

Today is the third straight fun day at sea. Tomorrow is our first of five straight port days. I have excursions reserved for four ports and a walking tour of the fifth.

Frank, I play the Hold'em game with the bonus bets where everyone plays against the dealer.

Lido deck looks like a ghost town at 3am.

Some Italian Glass Art, maybe from Murano which is known for artisan glass blowers, and a short boat ride from Venice.

Food was delicious! I had the filet mignon and lobster tail combo.

Bonsai Teppanyaki for dinner did not disappoint. Sorry I forgot to get a pic of the dessert bento box, it was beautiful and delicious, especially the pistachio cake.

Diamond lunch, my first. Food was better than MDR and Lido, almost as good as Steakhouse.

I uploaded a video of the jackpot payout and interaction, but it looks like it didn't stick.

Then everything makes sense all of a sudden when he blurts out "YOU PEOPLE know I spend $20,000 to $30,000 in here every cruise. Why would you risk losing a customer like me over tshirts!"

He goes on to argue that they shouldn't mess with a customer like him over 3 $20 tshirts...

They inform him he also won a Carnival Jackpot Winner tshirt and he says 'no, I get one for each jackpot ", they start arguing back and forth and after a few minutes it has escalated to the point he's shouting at them "I don't care who you have to get in here, you find someone to override your decision to only give me one tshirt for 4 JACKPOTS"...

This is where it gets weird at first, but then all makes sense!...
-
It gets better, wait for it...

The casino staff went to gather the cash to pay this guy, meanwhile he moves to our table to play, and the casino staff comes back to pay him FOUR JACKPOTS, apparently we didn't catch the first one!

This all happened in about 7 or 8 minutes and now the casino staff numbers were growing...
