Better known for being the White House Crasher. Google it (White House Crasher). and now I don’t understand the double quote.

When we got back from breakfast this morning there was a letter in the door “mail slot” offering 10 photos for $50. I think it was a Crown & Anchor offer. Thank you I'll be on the look out for that mid week on our cruise in March. That is a great deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, so I didn’t know him from the first reference, but I totally knew who he was after @Milwaukee Eight said White House crasher. I am glad you told me he was on the show though, @Buccaneergirl I would never have known that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aring75 Posted October 31, 2019 Author #157 Share Posted October 31, 2019 So after a long day in Cozumel, it was formal night tonight. Normally it would be tomorrow, our second sea day. However, tomorrow is Halloween and I think Symphony’s staff decided to move formal night to another night. Vidalia Onion Tart Caesar Salad Broiled Lobster Tail (these were the best we’ve had in the MDR in a long time) And out of the shell Dinner tonight was fantastic. For the past two nights, we’ve been sharing a section with closer-set tables of two (where it’s almost like sitting at a table for four) with a wonderful couple from Port Canaveral, Bob and Joan. I love having a table for two where Mark and I can relax and enjoy each others company, but it’s such a delight when you meet great people who are well-travelled and love to share their interesting stories. We’ve had a blast at dinner time with them! 😊 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare aring75 Posted October 31, 2019 Author #158 Share Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) On the 2nd formal night you find this little card sitting on the dinner table. And they bring this RCCL special 50th Birthday cake to every table at the end of the meal. They bring it no matter which dessert you order. Mark got the pineapple upside down cake and I didn’t order any other dessert. Edited October 31, 2019 by aring75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They brought us this same little cake on the Jewel this summer, when the servers over heard us discussing our anniversary was coming up. Sweet gesture. As with this tonight, they brought it in addition to our already ordered deserts. I don't know about that tux, but if I did a back to back, I'd need elastic waist band pants. Especially with extra desserts 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She ran off with the guitarist from Journey, Neal Schon. Yes, it is extremely embarrassing that I know this about them. Sigh. Regardless, really enjoying your review and am especially looking forward to your Halloween night posts and next week’s festivities. I almost did the anniversary cruise last year, but I was only Emerald; decided to do a Greek Isles cruise instead. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare perfect match Posted October 31, 2019 #163 Share Posted October 31, 2019 15 hours ago, aring75 said: Thank you! It’s an Olympus TG-5 and to be honest I’m still learning how to use it. But I do really like it for underwater shots! I’ve has an Olympus TG2 for a few years now and I love it! After thoroughly testing it’s toughness over the years, I can say it has held up really well, I’m about ready for an upgrade now, so I’ll be looking for a new Olympus over the Black Friday sales for a TG5. 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another subject, I’ve been up since 4:30am, because there is a critter in my attic that’s trying to get out(guess he forgot where he came in). It sounds big, so it’s either a raccoon or possum. 😡 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The onion tart is one of my favorite appetizers, but yes it is similar to a very light quiche. It has a sort of Parmesan cheese sauce that makes it even better. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it’s Tariq, crashing you attic for a few days, prior to boarding the ship. 😂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with extra desserts I had seen them bring the same little cake to other tables earlier this cruise, but didn’t really think anything of it. Thought it was neat that they brought it to everyone. Mark made a similar comment about his tux. We rented this one onboard, so the plan was just to send it to be cleaned and have it back for Cruise 2. He says after all this eating, maybe he should get refitted. 😉 Edited October 31, 2019 by aring75 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did that one in June and, so far, it’s at the top of my list of favorite cruises. 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found out from a neighbor that she was feeding a nursery of babies. So pretty soon we’ll have five of these things running around here. Yay.
