dkjretired Posted August 30, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Had the filet mignon first night, it was excellent, blu cheese souffle also good. Just did the show which was music from the 40s on. Patti is the cruise director, we had her on the Silhouette in Dec., very personable and she sang a couple of songs in the show. Brent Nixon was funny, had to figure out at first if he was nuts or something. You'll understand if you meet him Room is 1529, very quiet and yes, we did not get chocolates. No biggie. Not much else to write but we will have a busy day today. Forgot one thing, Baileys and Jack Daniels are on the Classic Package....

Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted August 30, 2014 #10 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Love Brent Nixon! He's very approachable, and actually came on our whale watch with Captain Larry and coached us on how to get good pictures of the whales. And he gave us a CD for my nephew to use in his classes. Enjoy your cruise! Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
