I think I will wait to try it on board as opposed to making it at home with all the liquors involved. Same here.

Trixie21 Posted February 6, 2022 #1052 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Great thread! We are due on Odysseys first European cruise in May so it's of particular interest to me. We are actually quantum class fans and prefer it over Oasis class (although we enjoy both) , so I am curious as to your final thoughts on Odyssey as I see you have sailed predominantly on Oasis class. Safe travels home and thanks for all the effort you have put in ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have been hitting them up more then a few nights when returning to the cabin each night. They were sweet and hot. Should have ordered earlier 🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question: When you were not in the SL, do you think the bartenders actually deducted the number of drinks you consumed from you PINN drinks loaded on your sea pass? Did each sea pass show your 6, or 12 for you and the spouse? Just curious if you were in a theatre and ordered two drinks one for each of you how they deducted them. Thanks for sharing your travels. They were generous for sure. Never found out if they would combine the total though. All I know is I never got charged on final bill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dinosaur way to post pictures is to send them to myself as an email, download, then put in pictures file. I post from there, but need AT&T signal to send to myself. Oh well...someday I will walk into the light of the tech world. 😄 No biggee...frees up more time for other things I guess. Happy you made it back safely, and love the picture of happy Belle!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted February 6, 2022 #1068 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Captain just announced at 3:45 (all aboard was 3:30) that over 10% of the pax still have not done the muster station yet. 😮 Definitely a lot of newbies on the ship versus last week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you book future Celebrity cruise(s) while onboard on embarkation day you get a bottle of wine for every cruise you book. They send the wine to your stateroom with all your future cruise documents.

Will grab a bottle tomorrow 😉 I have been buying lately some of the specialty liqueur's that you need in making specialty cocktails. I have the Midori and peach schnapps but not sour apple. I need to get that Pama. I did get some Blue Curacao and triple sec to make Blue Curacao martini's. They are pretty good. Still can't find white cranberry anywhere to make the blue cosmo. I'll keep searching. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John&LaLa Posted February 6, 2022 Author #1072 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Had breakfast in CK for the ladt time. Finished with my poached eggs and farro. So good I may try for a CK breakfast or two next week on Harmony. 😉 Left CK at 8am and was at the car 15 minutes later. Here is Odyssey all fogged in. Did I mention how close to the ship I parked😉 Drive to Cocoa Beach was uneventful, same as the trip home to Ocala. But I'm beat. Will try and post compasses later tonight 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
