Royal Caribbean Cruisers -- How Are Things Where You Are? (was "Routine" ​ 😁 ​day in lockdown... how was yours?)


Recommended Posts

I was just viewing my casino certificate and see there is a 7nighter from San Juan for Jan 2025.   No Tortola but really nice itinerary with Barbados, St Maarten, St Croix, St Thomas and Martinique on Rhapsody OTS.     Has anyone sailed on Rhapsody recently?    How was it?

That's a great itinerary, Debbie!

Thank you for your kind condolences.

Sadly he never tried to make peace with our Sarah and ourselves.

That was his loss ,Graham.You are truly one of the nice people on the planet as I am sure Pauline and Sarah are as well.

  • Haven't been on it, but I'm betting it seems outdated by  this time.  Introduced in 1997 and last refurbished in 2022

My granddaughter came home from college yesterday evening with one of her Israeli college friends.This 20 year old woman shared the exact same appreciation of music as I do. She even is a fan of the obscure singers/bands that I love.

We also discussed politics and she shares my point of view 100% regarding Israel.

Also went to Sam's Club and saw this, 10lb box of Bacon. Is this good for my diet?

if refurbished in 2022 that's pretty good.    We like the smaller class ships.    Radiance class has been our favorite for a while now.     Quantum class is probably the biggest that we like.    

 

What I really like is the itinerary - 7 night cruise with 6 port days and 1 sea day.    And we can take a direct flight from PHL to SJU.    I hate connecting flights and the worry of lost luggage for a cruise.

What is El. Volcano Molcajete?

It's very good, they also give salad,  rice and beans and  soft flour tortillas 

 

All the proteins are served in a real "Hot" stone bowl. It's listed in the Fajitas section of the menu.

Sounds and looks awesome.    If watching your diet to lower your A1C, this looks like a decent choice with plenty of proteins to help with the carbs (flour tortillas).    Yummy!!

I can tell you we loved the S Caribbean we just did on Jewel from SJU.  I WISH we had a direct flight!  Ship may not matter so much with that intinerary.

I looked at rhapsody out of tampa last part of 2025. Is there any good way from PC to tampa? I read it will take bright rail 5 years once its approved. It's not that good of ports it's worth the cost of parking, I'd like a shuttle from one coast to another.

Cardinals were hanging out at the feeder in the snow squall.  There’s a female on the opposite side.  The tail feathers show just a bit.

I occasionally see them in the bush in front of my living room window, always a treat. Great photo.

My plans for tomorrow in Lexington aren’t working out, two thing I wanted to do were going to Wild Turkey distillery which is closed on Monday and Mary Todd Lincoln house which is closed for the winter and reopening next week , we already knew that local racetrack which I heard was great will open in a few weeks, so I will hit local pubs before we have our family gathering.

 Which ain’t a bad idea 😁
