Loving the review so far! You have me pricing the Elation for later this year and we'll be at HMC in early April to try one of those villas out!

Hi Jeff. I'm still here reading. LOL. :rolleyes: Nice shots of HMC. As for the "new balaconies" Mid-ship to me they look ugly, they don't go with the ship.

Hey Barb! Glad that you're hanging in there with us. I agree that the new balconies are strange looking. :cool:

Once back on board we showered and then made our way to the Imagination Dining Room. Adam is playing his acoustic guitar in the Atrium……

 

We have arrived at Your Time Dining. There was no wait at all, and we were seated in Acer’s section. He was absolutely wonderful.

For dessert Patti had the fruit plate and I had the peach pie ala mode. After dinner we went to the Mikado Lounge to watch the comedy and juggling of Zuniga…..

 

After the show, Patti stayed for a session of bingo, and then went to the casino for some slot play. I played blackjack for a while, breaking even again. Back to the cabin where we found tonight’s towel creature…….

 

Coming up next: Trying a new All-Inclusive in Nassau.
