Thanks ckrobyn, I hope you like seafood. . .

 

Radio's choice would be Royal Crab Cocktail, and Fisherman's Plate (even without the shrimp)

Lobster #1 was ok, not the best and not the worst, BUT the shrimp not on the menu magically appeared on the plate [emoji3]

Unfortunately there is no picture of lobster #2, after one bite it was so salty I sent it back [emoji15][emoji51]

Robyn,

 

I just heard Super Mario is on Freedom this week. Have you run into him?

 

 

 

Yes he is [emoji3]Our MDR table mates spotted him out on the pool deck with his laptop working, and went over to say hello, they said he was very friendly and quite eager to chat with them. I personally have not seen him....

Thanks for sharing your trip with us. Are hot chocolate packets available in Windjammer or main dining room?? I'm not a big fan of coffee but will drink it mixed with hot chocolate. :)

the Freedom have the Coke freestyle machine? And would you happen to know if you have to have a drink package to use it?

 

They have two outside Sorrentos on the Promenade, and one inside Windjammer. There may be other machines. The machine operates off a souvenir cup with a chip imbedded in it, so yes, you need to purchase a drink package.

My 2 cents, as for the food this will be my first cruise that I will not gain any weight, the Quest was great, albeit a little different from past cruises, as for the mattress, they are "firm", so if you have a old/soft mattress at home you will not be happy.

Good morning.... we have reached the last day of the cruise...for me, the week went by at a perfect rate, but when I'm on land reading reviews like you are right now, the time just seems to fly by!

 

Last night's Quest was one of the best I have ever been to, and I go to all of them [emoji3] Casey is hilarious and really knows how to work the audience. For the benefit of those who have never attended, I'm not going to post pictures of the actual event, but I can show you that everyone got involved and it was LOUD and FUN!!

Today the weather is partly sunny, but the air temperature is quite cool, there is zero humidity.... My plan was to sit by the pool, but it's windy and not all that warm, so I'll spend the day wandering around the ship, taking pictures and simply relaxing, because after all, isn't that what a cruise is all about?

 

Today's balcony view....
