TheDougOut Posted February 3, 2016 Author #401 Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) A little trick for the time issue,, go into your Time and Date settings (under general on iPhones or iPads) and turn off 'Set Automatically' until you return to proper cell/wifi signal. Done! Thanks for the tip. Edit: not sure if that caused my iPhone's camera to stall - but I couldn't save photos for a bit.

sjnyc323 Posted February 3, 2016 #409 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Two things I really appreciated about this ship more than any other I had been on. 1) The beds are super comfy... I had some of the best sleeps of my life on that bed 2) The best water pressure in the shower of any ship I've experienced For you that are currently on it.. and any one going on it. The one thing that I discovered about 3 days in... if you push down the button and rev the handle forward (like a motorcycle)... it increases the water pressure like crazy! Not sure if this was common knowledge or not.. but the rest of my family had no idea. Just a little nice feature :D Yes true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emmjae Posted February 3, 2016 #418 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Thanks for the hilarious review. I was laughing so hard at you touching the marine life last night while reading in bed I almost woke up my husband! Have a blast today, and maybe a nap!

bam1957 Posted February 3, 2016 #419 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I'm on the Escape March 5th and I'm even more excited after following along with your review. You seem to be having such a great time and vacating the way I like to. Please continue to post but most importantly enjoy your cruise. When I go at least I won't be so much in the blind because your pictures actually put me right there with you. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob0519 Posted February 3, 2016 #423 Share Posted February 3, 2016 The cupcakes at the Bake Shop and Atrium Cafe are great. We bought a variety of 7 different cupcakes and turned them into a birthday cake when we had dinner at Teppanyaki. Definitely try some of these and the gelato as well.

Better than the Carlos garbage they had on the Getaway? Those were awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
