I came across Arielle and told her about the strawberry shortcake, she loves the ones I make back home, so off I went for a second piece of strawberry shortcake with her. I got to bed at 1:30 am.

MikeyA53 Posted November 13, 2012 Author #630 Share Posted November 13, 2012 . We started the day by going to the gym. We had missed the last three days because of the ports. Approximately half of the equipment was being used. Like they say, Spirit class ships are not as busy as other classes of Carnival ships and that seems to apply to the restaurant, buffet, shows and gym. Went to brunch at about 11 am. We used our coupons for a free Mai Tai and Tiramisu. I ordered the Filet Mignon and Eggs again and Tracy ordered Eggs Benedict. Caramelized Cheesecake Comedian Mike Lucas .

MikeyA53 Posted November 13, 2012 Author #631 Share Posted November 13, 2012 . After brunch we decided to try out our luck on the Vault in the casino. Its $1 per attempt to win cash prizes, with the top prize of a iPad combined with $500. To win you have to maneuver a key into a hole to knock off the prize. Looks simple but I would guess the key fits with only a millimeter to spare. We tried about 10 times without success. The next day I noticed that one of the two top prizes was gone. .

Our afternoon was spent lounging on the sport deck with the knowledge that the next day would be cooler, as we approached the northeastern U.S. The weather channel was forecasting a high of 58 degrees for our arrival in New York. A lot cooler than the 80 degrees on the day we left. Fun in the sun . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s okay, we only insist if we are getting professional photos taken. Escargots Baked Eggplant with Mozzarella Cheese . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GranysT Posted November 13, 2012 #638 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Mike, Your pictures are awesome. They always look like picture postcards. Arielle dress for 2nd formal night, looked beautiful.

MikeyA53 Posted November 13, 2012 Author #639 Share Posted November 13, 2012 . Tonight’s show in the Phantom lounge was the much anticipated ‘Ticket to Ride’ a tribute to the ‘Beatles’. Tracy had missed the show on our Carnival Freedom cruise because she was not well. In our opinion it’s the best of all Carnival shows. We arrived at 8:10 for the 8:45 show and spotted some good seats near the front of the lounge. However, practically the whole row was being saved by 3 scarfs, laid out to cover the long bench seat. I simply walked to the middle of the row and tossed the scarf aside and sat down. Shortly afterwards a lady sitting behind us mumbled something and retrieved the scarfs. Sorry no photos of the show because of the copyright laws & safety of the performers. After the show we hurried to the Mad Hatter’s Ball Lounge for the ‘Punchliner Comedy’ Excellent shows with Mike Lucas and Smiley Joe Wiley. Mike Lucas .

At my sons college graduation this year (held outside) we arrived at 0630 to ensure we got good seats. As we went to sit down a woman ran over and told us she had the entire two rows (32 seats!) saved for her family. She had taken an orange napkin and torn 32 pieces off to mark her chairs :eek: We debated whether or not to sit there anyway, but ultimately moved on....sometimes it just isn't worth ruining a special moment with a confrontation.

I was going to give you a high five for this too, Mike! ;) Gail, sure wish a big wind had come along and blown all the napkin pieces to the back rows! :D:D:D:eek: Very nice of you to keep your cool and not let it ruin your day.

Mitchel joined us on the Lido deck for lunch and the chocolate buffet. I decided to have something from Chopsticks while Tracy had something from the Carvery. .
