Thanks for the Music Hall pictures! Didn’t know there was an itinerary change, since this is what it was when we booked. This was the first sea day, and that is usually when they have the first formal night. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is plenty of time when I'm not on a cruise to sleep. Although, I am up early at home, too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted October 26, 2021 Author #188 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Just in case anyone forgets where we are. On our way to the running track this morning, and many of the doors had signs that said closed due to inclement weather. So we walked out on pool deck 14 and up the exterior stairs that were not closed. Didn’t want to break any rules. We then saw a sign leading back inside. We must have passed through a rainstorm last night, because part of the track was wet. This guy got to drive the zamboni. I had a hard time keeping up with Susan this morning. She did a 7 second mile. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did you find out about the change in itinerary? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted October 26, 2021 Author #191 Share Posted October 26, 2021 It seems like you can always find an open door to places, even if some doors say closed. We explored Seaplex and Playmakers as a totally empty venue this morning. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did you find out about the change in itinerary? literally last Friday was when it was made official, though some people claimed to have heard about the change earlier in the week from their travel agents. This is for the Dec 4 sailing Edited October 26, 2021 by hotsauce126 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a whim, we walked up to see if we could go up in the North Star, since we were in port. Nope, you have to book a time slot, and all spots were booked already, as well as all the other port days. Now you can do it on a sea day for $29/pp, but what would you see other than the ocean. We are glad we booked Ifly for one of the port days already, because those are all booked now. You want to do it on a sea day, that is $49/pp. The moral is….book as soon as you get onboard. Do you book this on the app also or go somewhere? thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noticed that on my 2 Oasis sailings over the past month. As far as beer goes, 12 oz. cans replaced the 16 oz. bottles. The price remained the same though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseyjjs Posted October 26, 2021 #196 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Question about Playmakers. Did you happen to check out if they showed most (if not all) of the NFL games? And as far as seating, was it crowded?.....assuming nobody was able to sit at the bar. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonj Posted October 26, 2021 #197 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) I do not see the cost for espresso on the Starbucks list posted, would it be possible to check the cost of a single and double espresso? Also anyone know the cost in the dining room for one? Thank you enjoying your report. Also does anyone know the normal cost of sparkling water and water bottles? Trying to figure out if the beverage package would work for us. Edited October 26, 2021 by jonj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure if they play all the games. Actually, I didn’t know they had Playmakers until I heard someone talking about it. Then I had to go in search of it. All the indoor bars have no seating at the bar. You can sit at the ones outdoors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
