It small but it's not too far, was reasonably priced and there looks to be some good eating places close by We are following along on your cruise, since we sail on Symphony in 3 weeks.....although we are doing the Western Caribbean, I am more interested in your enjoyment of the ship. I think your hotel looks marvelous and so quaint. We have no need for a hotel, since we live in S. Florida, but hope it was a nice experience so I can recommend it to people who might need one.

PCWalton1 Posted January 19, 2019 Author #60 Share Posted January 19, 2019 How was the food? Any issues getting a table or waiting in crazy line?We made the mistake of waiting till 12 so we're had to wander awhile looking for a table. No crazy lines. Food is standard Windjammer Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueridgemama Posted January 19, 2019 #61 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Loved your pictures of Espanola Way so I looked it up online. Have booked the El Paseo hotel for one night post cruise and really liked the look of the food at Havana 1957! You haven't even left Miami yet and you have already helped me😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the first questions that popped into my head was "I wonder how many pairs of shoes Marie brought on this trip?" Have a great time!

PCWalton1 Posted January 19, 2019 Author #63 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Made a stop in the Diamond Lounge. Every seat taken and half of them looked like they had been camped out a while. So Schooner bar will be our happy hour home. It's got live music. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCWalton1 Posted January 20, 2019 Author #65 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Finishing off the day. We went to Hooked Seafood tonight for dinner. Really, really good meal. Lots of fresh seafood. Started with a salad, followed by drunken mussels and raw oysters. For dinner Marie had the platter which was lobster, shrimp and salmon. I had surf and turf, medium rare on the steak. Boston creme pie and whoopie pie for dessert..Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted January 20, 2019 Author #66 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The ice show was called 1977, plot was the crown jewels were stolen and they were trying to get them back. The little lights in the first picture were drones that were flying around the rink.Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pratique Posted January 20, 2019 #67 Share Posted January 20, 2019 If you liked 1977 try to catch the iSkate 2.0 show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travelgoddess1 Posted January 20, 2019 #70 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Bill, and for anyone else onboard, the Meet & Mingle is today (Day 2) at 1:30pm at Dazzles. Loved your photos of Hooked. It is on my “to do” list. Tell Marie I also brought 8. What time do you normally go to the Schooner Bar? Happy Birthday!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
