Rare mking8288 Posted April 29, 2018 Author #27 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Found our sparkling wine & 2 bottles of water last night when we came back from dinner. Got a mixup of getting the Gold welcome instead of Platinum card for laundry & dining, resending the strawberries too. Last night MDR menu, same as 2017 ... make a stop in the Garden Cafe.

dexddd Posted April 29, 2018 #29 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Looks like a good M&G turnout. So in 8100 is that a pullman over the main bed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted April 29, 2018 Author #30 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Looks like a good M&G turnout. So in 8100 is that a pullman over the main bed? Yes, a fun one and I won a raffle price again. 8100 Pullman is sideway over the main beds, we have 3 single beds so nobody climbing the step ladder. No USB ports in that room or in our picture view OV either. Chair is now a stool. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted April 30, 2018 Author #44 Share Posted April 30, 2018 We are here, making the U-turn, starting picking up faint cell signal about 45 minutes ago. via dual sim QISKIW-L24 using AT&T or T-Mo on Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted April 30, 2018 #45 Share Posted April 30, 2018 We see you are in PC MKing. Have a great day. Boy, never realized that one menu was a bit racy. Oh, since you'll have nothing better to do, can you ask the people by the pool why they are sitting by the pool but not actually in the pool (CC question of the week).

Rare mking8288 Posted April 30, 2018 Author #46 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Docked next to Disney, ship cleared about 15 minutes ago, the crowds thinning out as some are heading down to the gangway. Reminder that no food or fruits are allowed to be taken on shore. La Cucina is quiet while the buffet is still quite full. via dual sim QISKIW-L24 using AT&T or T-Mo on Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a great day ... can you ask the people by the pool why they are sitting by the pool but not actually in the pool (CC question of the week). Will do later, watching doggie patrol screening incoming goods for the Gem, walking thru the terminal. Heading over to Coca Beach ... Ha ha, I will try to find the answer for CC Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfolk7551 Posted April 30, 2018 #48 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Just off Gem 4/28 and enjoyed the entertainment so much. Can't recall the names of the aerial dance couple that performed. Are they still on board this week? Hope you enjoy your week as much as we did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted April 30, 2018 Author #49 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Here's Coca Beach & Ron Jon. Free WiFi in the stores & clean restrooms inside at the Sheraton ... McDonald WiFi is slow. Outlook for GSC is less than 50:50, not looking hopeful, time for plan B or C. Oh well. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted April 30, 2018 Author #50 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Still provisioning the Gem, lots of onions & flours, etc. Tonight, reservations at Moderno ... should finish before sailing & look out for pier runners late in coming back, Captain promised them a life jacket with name written on it at 8:31 pm. Here is tonight's MDR menu. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
