Thanks for your review loving it. I am currently on Ruby Princess but getting on Star Princess on Monday. Ruby has on demand movies does the Star?

The Star has all new TV's, but not the Royal class "On Demand" system.  There is also an HDMI input you can hook up an external device, such as a DVD player, to watch.  You are also able to change the input on the TV remote from the standard offerings to the HDMI input.....😊😊😊

Getting ready for the Ultimate Balcony Dinner outside.  The wind, for the most part, right now is cooperating.  It sure is going to be hard to give up this cabin on Monday.....

I know - I know - but it's going to a nice couple who will also enjoy it to its max!  😍 So it's almost like being there.

 

Who is our Steward?

Will you be in that suite on the 19th? We’ll be neighbors!

Wow that cabin is awesome; as is your large balcony.   The dining table looks fabulous.  It will be hard to give that suite up; but alas; someone else is already planning on moving in next week. Cheers

A very good morning (0720 local time) from the Star Princess as we are beginning our fourth full sea day out of five sailing to Ensenada.  At the moment the seas are calm and I don't feel much wind out on the balcony.

 

Last night Holli & I enjoyed the Ultimate Balcony Dinner on our balcony.  The entire experience was outstanding.  We both had the "Surf & Turf" combo.  The lobster tail seemed much bigger than I remember from last year when we did the UBD on the Pacific Princess.  Our steaks were cooked to order and were delicious.  One thing I really enjoyed was the service.  Our waiter "Rommel" from the Philippines was a true gem.  "Fred," if you decide to book the UBD, on the next cruise, you won't be disappointed.

 

Today on board we do not have much planned.  I am going to pull out some of my luggage and begin the unpleasant task of packing.  I also plan to hit the gym later today.  This afternoon, I will be headed to my first ever "Slot Pull" that was organized by another roll call member.  A little side note about the SP.  I thought it was yesterday so I was down in the Casino on time and did not see anyone else there.  I kinda got a little peeved when nobody showed up so I gambled a little (The Slots in the Star's casino are very very tight) and subsequently returned to our cabin.  When I returned, I bellyached to Holli about nobody showing up.  She politely reminded me the Slot Pull was tomorrow (today):classic_biggrin:.  For dinner tonight, we will be headed once again to Sabatinis.

 

Today onboard, MUTS will be showing "Cirque Du Soleil: Delirium at 1015, Jurassic World at 1500, an Annie Lennox concert at 1715, and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom at 1830 & 2100.  Comedian Doug Funk will be in the Vista Lounge at 2000 & 2145.  The Production show "Born to Dance" will be in the Princess Theater at the usual 1900 & 2100 times.

 

That's all for now.

 

Hope all are well.....

Ops, thanks for catching that.  This MAC of mine sometimes has a mind of its own.  If I leave the cursor somewhere in my work area it sometimes switches form where I'm typing to where the cursor is.  I was going to type Pacific Princess where I mentioned it but my MBP typed it there.  I saw the error, but forgot to correct it after I proofread my post prior to sending it....

I was thinking the same thing as I was revisiting your photo and drooling ...  we have done it once and had to roll ourselves back inside.

 

FSUgal, yes, that's our home next week, we will be checking the closets for stowaways.  We are lucky enough to be able to splurge once in a great while as well.

Awesome! No worries on us stowing away. We too splurged this time, not quite as much as you guys, as we are in the Owner’s Suite on Baja.

Good evening from the Star Princess.  We are going to be getting ready soon for our formal night dinner in Sabatinis.  This afternoon, we participated in our roll call slot pull.  It was the first one I had ever done and it was a load of fun.  After everyone was finished, we actually made $3.00 over our initial investment.  After the slot pull, Holli and I gambled a little in the casino.  My $40.00 was gone in a second or two,  Holli was the big winner as she came away with about $250.00 to the plus after everything was said and done.  After the gambling was done, Holli went to a hair appointment.  I wanted to get some packing started but didn't have the heart to get my garment bag out.  My packing will therefore start in earnest tomorrow.  

 

That's all for now, I'll check in later when we get back from dinner.

 

Hope all are well.....😊😊😊
