I am loving your review. Will be on the glory this summer but doing eastern. I am concerned about the new menus as well. I have reviewed them and they don't look appealing to me. Oh well....plenty of other options.

 

Can't wait to see the rest. :)

We got our early morning wake up vibration & I was happy to finally see the sun, but I was still tired from last night. I needed some real coffee to get me going, so I made a stop to the Coffee Bar while mom got ready. OMG, wish I would’ve discovered this sooner, definitely hit the spot. I had booked Victor Bodden's Fun in Sun tour & we were to meet at 9am. We ate a quick breakfast on Lido & were off on our way outside the gate & over the hill. We got there about 8:45 & I guess we were the last ones because we left once we got there. We started off the touring the island & I was amazed at some of the villages, we stopped for a photo op at what I think was the highest point & the view was amazing. Next we went to Victor’s Monkey business. I really only had intentions of relaxing in a hammock & watching people zip-line, but when we got there I decided I would walk through the animal area…just to look. Well I guess I got caught up in the moment, because I decided to put on my brave girl panties & actually got in the cage with the monkeys. Loved it!!! Now I absolutely hate & I mean HATE birds, but again vacation mode got to me & was in a bird cage. I was scared to death & happy as a pig in $#@% to get out of there. Then we were on our way to Bananarama Resort at West Bay Beach & had about 2 hours to spend here. The water looked nice, it was a little cold at first but warmed up after a while. They also have free wifi so I spent some time laying out in the sun & catching up on FB. Before heading back to the tour van we stopped for a frozen drink, a bananarama.

 

Thank goodness for the Coffee Bar

 

Once back on board it was a pretty quiet afternoon. We had lunch on Lido & hung around for the Ice carving demo…I was surprised to see something other than the Indian Chief head. Dinner tonight was our second American Feast, I had the beef tenderloin, OK & Chesapeake crab cake, did not like at all. I was very disappointed because I loved the old New England crab cakes & would normally order at least 2. For dessert I had the sticky toffee brioche with 4 toppings; did not live up to my expectations. Tasted like dough with honey & by the time Virgil came around with the toppings I had eaten them. After dinner I tried my luck in the casino & should’ve kept my money in my pocket. I stuck around the casino stage for the Guess that Oldie but Goodie song with my tablemate Mike & could barely keep my eyes open. I guess last night finally caught up with me & tonight would be an early night. I walked pass the night club without even looking through the window & went straight to my room. When I got in mom wasn't there, guess were reversing roles for the night. I don’t remember where she said she was or what time she came in, but she said she wasn’t used to me being in bed so early & when she got in she thought to herself “who is in my room?” LOL

 

HaHa..the 2 ladies over his left shoulder look bored!!

 

Trying to look Elegant for the 2nd time

 

Beef Tenderloin

 

Sticky Toffee Brioche without 4 toppings

 

That sticky brioche doesn't look anything like a imagined. That's why I need pictures, I rarely cook. DH wears that hat!

Love that black dress..you look very elegant.

I hate monkeys, so I probably wouldn't have been so brave. Good for you.
