LIVE from Allure of the Seas, sailing April 27th!

[BugsyCruiser]

I do hope you post the menu if you can for Duffy's..., is Duffy's on the water and which side is it on the side of your hotel or the pier side?

 

Duffy's is behind the Embassy Suites, not a part of the Hyatt.

Gotcha :)

 

When we arrive in two weeks I still debating where to go for lunch, I may consider Duffys, or go to the southport raw bar or 15street fisheries which is right in that area...for dinner we are going to Shooters Bar and Grill (for old time sake lol).

Hello Patty, how is it going?

 

Unfortunately Quantum is out of the question for now. My finances are rather tight with me going back to college and cutting down hours at work. For now I am staying around ports near my house, that way I don't have extra travel expenses (hotels/Air/Etc). I was really hoping for Anthem to be delivered to my home town, but as everyone knows RCCL has decided to try out new markets. We will see how everything develops, and maybe in the near future I can make Quantum/Anthem happen.

 

 

Sorry for quick highjack Chris :)

 

I can totally relate Gambee!!! I'm just glad I booked Quantum the first day bookings opened or else I wouldn't be sailing on her at the current prices either!!! Good luck with school!! Maybe someday we'll be on a cruise out of Florida together. I really prefer cruising out of Florida and warm weather but like you said, home port is cheaper because no airfare and/or hotels involved.

My homeport of course is NJ!! LOL But there's so many more choices in Florida.

I'll be headed over to the inlet in a little while with some friends to see the three Royal Caribbean ships sail away today and then dinner at Duffy's. Pictures to come later

 

Thanks for tuning in everyone! :)

 

I've never watched the ships sail away fom the inlet before, but plan on doing it before this next cruise. What time is the best time to get there?

 

Also, if we walk back to 17th street after are taxi's readily available? I'm worried we might be tired after spending the day at the beach, and then watching the ships leave.

 

Looking forward to Duffy's pictures. That is on my list of tentative places to eat!

We plan to have our spot by at least 4:30 EST. Right about here somewhere:

Taptalk is an app you can add to your smartphone and you can take pictures from your phone and put them directly on the thread via that app. I am using that and photobucket for the photos I take with the Nikon

 

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question. That is most helpful. Will give it a go!

 

Bon Voyage and enjoy this fabulous ship!

[BugsyCruiser]

Waiting for the show to begin....

How do you get there, please? Can you park a car nearby?

 

Thanks!

Hearing all the bridges reports from Liberty and Independence on the harbor radio on the webcam. Indie is waiting for a piece of luggage...someone must've arrived rather late....;)

OMG I'm looking for all the same info. We are staying at Embassy Suites.....could someone let me know how long of a walk it would be to watch from the inlet? We are also planning on Duffy's for supper as I heard it is close to our hotel. Any extra info and pics would be greatly appreciated.

 

Great job so far Chris :D

[BecciBoo]

Looking at the Google map for you, there appears to be lots of hotel/office parking on S Ocean Lane, don't see a public lot but maybe Chris can get that info.

The inlet is about a 20 minute walk from the Hyatt. If no one does before me, I'll post the map later

That ought to be about 30 to 35 minutes from Embassy Suites.

 

What about parking Chris....it looks like all office buildings along there.

[Kenosha Cruiser]

Chris, the bread pudding and vanilla ice cream looked pretty tasty. Great pictures, the Hyatt grounds and pool area looked nice. Will have to check this place out for our cruise in November. I need to check in more often, the posts just keep coming. Enjoy the Florida weather.

 

Cheers - Ken & Darlene

Anybody we know....Chris????

 

Which man is he? I've been reading his reviews the last day or two.

[BecciBoo]

I don't know if he's in there, but its a cinch some of those people are probably CCers!

 

Emmy boo hoo, just when I went to do the capture our feed went blank...did you get it...I mean literally when someone with a boa came into view and I pressed my print screen button, but it captured jibberish....:rolleyes:
