aztekpm Posted September 26, 2016 #276 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Just back & had a Caribbean Colada on the Pride Bermuda cruise and loved both it and the Pride! Patty is right, they are very good. Your review is reminding me of a road trip a few years ago from Cape Cod, all up the Eastern seaboard to Halifax for a cousins wedding. Might need to do it on a ship one day :D Enjoying the review so far and can't wait for more. Edited September 26, 2016 by aztekpm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusin Karen Posted September 26, 2016 #278 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hey, Jamman, just tried looking up your getaway with Ryan on the Sunshine in a few weeks. Figured if I could find a "pack and go" rate we could jump aboard and play some Blackjack with you. ;):p Can't find your cruise anywhere.....must be sold out! :eek::cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatloafsfan Posted September 26, 2016 #282 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Thanks for your reviews of the specialty restaurants. I have finally booked the Sunshine for next May (only 5 nights but at least I get to try that ship) and have already told my parents that we're trying both. Cucina was an easy sell because they both love Italian but JiJi's sounded a little too "authentic" for their tastes. Now that you've posted your review and they can see pictures I'm sure it will put them at ease that the food isn't that different and it tastes very good!

JiJi's was by far the best dinner we had on our cruise, and we were very happy with our other meals. :) Edited September 26, 2016 by Jamman54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mykindaparty Posted September 26, 2016 #289 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hi Jeff, loving the review. Thanks for posting pics of the boys when they were little, I know it's bitter sweet for you and Patti to look back on everything y'all did with Kevin and know that he's not here with you anymore. But you guys sure have a special angel on all yalls cruises and in everyday life. Keep making those memories with Ryan and know that Kevin is smiling down on y'all. Tell Patti she hasn't aged a bit over the years. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 26, 2016 Author #291 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Day 5 – Saint John, NB – (9:00am – 4:00pm) We are up at 7am and on the bow camera we can see that the seas are calm, but it is very foggy outside…… We arrived in Saint John right around 8:30am, and the ship was cleared at 9am.Here is the bow camera view once again of us docked in Saint John…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 26, 2016 Author #292 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) We have no excursions planned for today. We have been here enough times to have done and seen everything that we needed to do and see here. Our plan is to have a nice leisurely breakfast, then leave the ship and head over to Market Square and the City Market. Once again we made our way up to the Lido Deck and found seats at the Havana Bar. Patti was going to have a simple continental breakfast, but I was in the mood to head over to the Blue Iguana Cantina and get a breakfast burrito….. June is happy to see me this morning….. June and I pose for the camera…. June is building my burrito…… Back to the Havana Bar I go with my burrito….. The finished masterpiece!! Man, was it good!!! To be continued…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 26, 2016 Author #293 Share Posted September 26, 2016 So, somewhere around 10am we decided to leave the ship. The gangway today would be on Lobby Deck 3. Patti took these shots in the lobby as we waited to get off. The Sunshine Lobby Bar….. Looking up at the Atrium elevators….. The Deck 3 Lobby Fun Hub….. The Sunset Dining Room….. To be continued…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 27, 2016 Author #295 Share Posted September 27, 2016 For those of you who are planning to walk around the town just be aware that Saint John is a hilly town….

Rare patrice1 Posted September 27, 2016 #296 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I was born in Salem, MA & spent a lot of time in Boston. Really got homesick looking at your review. At Fanueil Hall, we loved Regina's Pizza & I miss it. I also miss No Name Seafood at the Pier and can't wait till we retire & do those things again, on a cruise or land vacation. My last time in Boston, introducing my Florida born husband, we took the on-off trolley & stopped on the Freedom Trail as well as the original Cheers. We also really enjoyed the North End for the Italian experience, as well as the Paul Revere stuff. Thanks for helping me to remember how much I love my city!

Rare Jamman54 Posted September 27, 2016 Author #298 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Just like Hollywood, Saint John has a sign on the side of the hill…..

I went to/graduated from Endicott in Beverly. The entire area is gorgeous. Marblehead, Salem, Rockport....I read The Crucible in high school (required for an English class) and just HAD to read it again when I saw we were on Hale St. (aka Rev. Hale) Used to grab burgers and beers at the Depot where the trains rambled past us and we had baskets of peanuts at our table that we cracked shells and threw on the floor. GOOD TIMES!!! Also hopped on the train there and took a ride into Boston on Saturdays. Such a beautiful city. They made fun of my NJ accent and I made fun of theirs! I have done a Canada cruise, but someday I'm gonna have to do this one and go back to Boston....;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
