seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #127 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Lets take a stroll around the ship shall we: The Grand Foyer (where we cut the rug dancing last night, except it is a marble floor not rug...) Is that a tree hanging in the elevator atrium, why yes it is Now that is the definition of a "Red Rose" The grand stairwell, I feel like Jack Dawson walking down them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #128 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Let's head over to guess relation to break some money down for tips, which is just left or right, ( depending on facing ) of the Grand Foyer on Deck 3 Darn, their cash drawer is not open yet.. Lets look around why we wait Maps! Our route in case the captain forgets https://vimeo.com/190428894 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #129 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Some info on the Birth of Reflection, (she was such a cute baby) She was assembled in Germany.. She has a heavyyy bottom She came out looking like a shiny nickel! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #130 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Without jinxing it, so far the internet service on Reflection is 9 outta 10 Oscars. Pics upload in several seconds and videos in about 30-45 seconds..wayyyyy better than other internet service on NCL and dare I say even better than on RCL Allure of the Seas. Not quite as good as RCL Quantum, but way better than I had planned it would be. Hope the quality hold through the week Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #136 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Unsettled weather, what is one to do.... let's go have some breakfast: We are usually not buffet aficionados,but we gave it a try this morning Coffee bar They have various station instead of a long line of options, which seems to work well to disperse crowds somewhat A few of the hardworking staff offered themselves for a pic https://vimeo.com/190435117 Cont next post Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #137 Share Posted November 6, 2016 I opted to try the pre-made eggs benny One test of a buffet is if the food that should be hot is an cold cold. Sadly the hot food was mostly cold and the non-hot items were ok temp wise. 3 outta 5 forks.. layout of buffet added last .5 or it would be 2.5. Tomorrow the dining room.

screamin400 Posted November 6, 2016 #138 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Thank you for the great review. For once a critic that does not think they are a professional basher. I do not come to cruise critic very often anymore as most folks just bash. We will be on that ship in 2018 and sure do appreciate what you are doing. We are in an aft cabin on that one.

themutis Posted November 6, 2016 #139 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Thanks again for posting! Your photos and videos are great! I noticed that the Lawn Club Grill is offering a Gourmet Burger lunch. If you happen to be near there, I'd love to see the menu and know the cost. But only if you happen to be there :) I also noticed that the Sushi On 5 hours are 12:00-2:30 & 6:00-11:00. Hubby and I loved getting sushi from the buffet as a pre-dinner snack and were hoping to do the same at Sushi On 5 - guess we are out of luck there.

Thanks screamin for the kind words! Were kinda laid back so unless something is egregious we generally do not bash. We try to look on the bright side, but offer and honest opinion as much as possible.

seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #144 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Ok Cruise Critics- We had our breakfast now time to get moving! Fall out for the march... The jogging/walking track is on deck 15 and circles above the main pool and wraps around behind the mast bar. I did not calculate the distance of one circuit but maybe about .15 of a mile? Lets goooooo https://vimeo.com/190438646 Lots of walkers and a few joggers https://vimeo.com/190438758 In our best drill Sargent voice to help us keep the pace https://vimeo.com/190438905 Lets keep going, I can see my lounger just waiting for me.. were near the end!

seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #145 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Here's a fitness tip ... keep hydrated :) 3.5 forks outta 5 taste was great, garnish could have been a bit more. Passing along the northern part of Cuba, sea depth is 1,650 feet. You can just see cuba through the clouds. https://vimeo.com/190440337 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you get the hang of tapatalk you will be a pro! Funny aside to the report, I downloaded the Cruise Critic app to try this trip and was switching between tapa and cruise critic app. The are very similar and probably designed with the same base software, however the button layout for certain functions are different in CC app and several times yesterday when quoting a post on CC I hit what I thought was the photo button but it was the report post button. I think I canceled before reporting but if there is one reported I apologize, but I think I caught it. So tapatalk for me the rest of the way :) Anyone want to go shopping for a bit since Mr Sunshine took the day off?

MinnesotaCruiser1974 Posted November 6, 2016 #148 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Thanks for taking us all with you on this cruise! I hope you have a blast! My family is doing a Western Caribbean cruise on the Reflection on March 25, 2017, so I will be following along closely this week.

seadog67 Posted November 6, 2016 Author #150 Share Posted November 6, 2016 (edited) Shopping down by the Avenue across from the Casino on Deck 4 https://vimeo.com/190442825 Seadog gets one mark in the savvy shoppers column, as we try to buy a ship model of each ship we sail, so I spied Reflection At a price of But upon checkout was charged So being the savvy cruiser asked why it was two dollars more, ( yeah darn straight that's 1/8 of a martini cost ), and It sent the sale lady into a hurried search for her manager. They failed to put the right price out on display which is $34.99 so they refunded me and only charged me $32.99. I guess the cost is less on the last day so maybe I am not as savvy as I think buying it on day 2 Cont Edited November 6, 2016 by seadog67 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
