Live! Grandeur 4.18- 4.25.19 - Same Old Ship, Different Day

[h20skibum]

There is a sign, and a stairway that leads down to the beach. The sign says not to take any sea glass with you



A few samples as displayed by hand model Susan



It is not a very large beach, but it does look like they keep adding glass



It has even been used for this

We walked a little further to see someone fishing



And to check out another beach



Susan said she was too warm in the jeans and jacket. So if it is 70, and less than 24 mph winds, shorts would be fine

If you can make it past that place, there is another to entice you



And this is located on the road you follow out of town.

Ouch.

Random thought. How can you not have fun, when people dance with cakes on their heads?

So back to finish our Bermuda day. One of the last things we did was to kiss under the moon gate arch to assure we have a long and happy life together



I do have a photo of us under the arch, but Susan hates to have her picture taken

I think that after as many happy years we have had together, we can’t help be be destined for many more.

I really tried to scope the balloon drop last night, but the connection was too poor, even standing 20 feet from the Internet cafe.



I did several videos, so maybe I can upload after I get back

I have had very little luck Periscoping from the Centrum on the Radiance Class ships, so I assume Vision Class is the same.  Too far inside the ship.  I've had a little better luck with FB Live, but not much.

I just read this while in the centrum tonight, so I brought up the periscope app and the go live button actually appeared. Maybe I wii try a scope of the band

Hey, it's Grant! And Indra, my waiter from last week's cruise, is behind him. Grant is lots of fun and Indra is a great waiter.

Following. We will be getting on when you get off on Thursday. I have a few questions. Did you hear of anyone attempting to go in the water? Were the mini busses going to Horseshoe Beach? Was theCasino open while docked in Bermuda? Thanks and I look forward to hearing about your day in Charleston!

We talked to a 16 year old boy last night, who went to horseshoe bay. He said it was too cold to go in. They did take a mini bus.

 

When we were at glass beach, I went in up to my knees. Cold, but I got use to it a little. Water temperature and air temperature were both around 70

 

I didn’t go through the casino while there. I will check the cruise compass and let you know if they had hours.

My daily catch up - I am enjoying your blog.  We have been to Bermuda several times and it has to be our favorite port. 

 

we did purchase The Key for our October sailing, with the Surf & Stream as a major perk.  Our cabin is also on deck 3.  I appreciate the tips, but a tad disappointed in your internet connection.

 

The reserved seating for shows was another draw as I am handicapped and a friend who is traveling with us is "older".  Not rushing to get a good seat in the shows is a big perk.  By any chance, could you take a photo of the "reserved seating" area in the Palladium for me?  That is greatly appreciated!  Thanks you in advance.

I will take a picture tonight. There were always seats, even at showtime, but not a lot of upper tier or key holders

@jamscckmc the casino was open after 9 pm on Saturday on the ship while in Bermuda.  It wasn’t open Sunday, till after we left port

The reserved seating is at the very back, under the balcony.

 

Most times, even if you arrive just before the show, there are plenty of better seats.

Beautiful picture.  Thanks for this ongoing review.  I will be boarding on Thursday as you get off.  Hope you had a wonderful vacation.  Katherine

Since periscope did not work for the Easter Bunny balloon drop, I did a short video

 

warning, it is 5 minutes of your life you can’t get back😁

 

 

[h20skibum]

I also did a short periscope of our sailing into Charleston this morning, since we had cell service

Sorry for the wind noise, but my windscreen is laying on my desk at home.
