SenatorsFan Posted December 16, 2018 #52 Share Posted December 16, 2018 What a wonderful scavenger hunt that was. I can't believe all the work that you put into it. Great pictures so far, too. I'm looking forward to the rest of the story. Heather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #53 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) It was finally time to Muster. Our muster station was in Los Lobos. We had two kids across the table who were not paying attention to the muster drill and almost knocked the dinnerware under tablecloth over several times. the parent, who was two feet away, did nothing. After muster we snuck out onto the back deck from Los Lobos. loved the windows looking down on the ducktail. Susan headed up to the stateroom to set up the camera for sail away on our balcony. I had an informal Cruise critic sail away event on the Waterfront, so I headed to Sugarcane. Susan took a short video of the view from our balcony.

shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #54 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Now you may have noticed the ship was facing towards Miami and not out to sea. Well that meant we had to go turn in the turning basin, oh darn. Here is the time-lapse video from our Balcony of the turn in the turning basin. We had to be docked that way due to the Norwegian Jade being parked where it was. I was down on deck 8 taking pictures Trace was up on his Balcony on Deck 11 taking pictures which he shared with me!

shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #61 Share Posted December 16, 2018 One of the Facebook groups from our sailing got together for a group picture. The Coast Guard had closed the channel out due to a boating accident, so after we had turned we sat waiting for the clearance to depart Miami. Here is the sail out from the Port of Miami. Trace was still taking photos from his Balcony, but I headed to our stateroom after the group photo. Sailing by the Symphony of the Seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #65 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Goodbye Miami! See you in a week! Susan and I got ready for Dinner. She did not know where we were going tonight!! A Surprise awaited her! We headed to the atrium to meet up with Trace and Maria and to go to dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #66 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Trace handed Susan this when He and Maria got to the atrium. He added, "Let's make this quick, I am hungry!" We would have both been shot if we had made Susan do another scavenger hunt. Heading to Teppanyaki. Looking up at the Chandelier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #68 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Miso Soup Seaweed Salad At this point I was questioning coming to Teppanyaki, because I was hungry and nothing was tasting good. Trace and Maria assured me I would be full at the end. The show begins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #70 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I got the Steak and Shrimp. Susan got the Shrimp and Scallops, and Udon noodles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowmeboy Posted December 16, 2018 Author #71 Share Posted December 16, 2018 The fruits for Dessert were very good. After Dinner, I stopped and got the Dinner menu for the MDR on the first night. When we got back to the Stateroom, this invitation was waiting for us! Along with this. and this Susan and I walked our invitations/reminders for the Meet & Greet around to the staterooms that requested one. This is what it looked like. Flying a Red Eye took a lot out of Susan and I and we crashed that first night. End of Day 1! ---- I will do some more tomorrow. Goodnight all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJAuckland Posted December 16, 2018 #72 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Yay. I am so glad you have started your review. I have been waiting patiently since your Alaska cruise and was hoping I’d see the start of this one before I fly to Sydney to hop on board the Jewel this week. Susan must have been so excited with the cabin (by the photos I am not so sure about the scavenger hunt...although it was a cool way to see the ship) and I love the way your reviews flow along with all the wonderful photos. Thank you for sharing. Julie, Auckland, New Zealand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
