My DH was wondering where was your favorite old fashioned, and what is it called?

 

Makers Mark in Suite Lounge was pretty good

[John&LaLa]

At Showgirls. Decent seats 30 minutes prior

FWIW, we have iFLY tomorrow at 3:30😉

[John&LaLa]

Really enjoyed Teppanyaki tonight. Bucky was showing me how to use chopstix.

 

Having a nice view was pretty pointless. Even with a 5:30 reservation 

 

Nice while it lasted 😪

How was the food and service there???

[John&LaLa]

Suite Lounge Tokyo Tea and Papa Jac

 

Not pink at Izumi or theater🤔

Very good, they aim to please

[SE fla]

I never tried that place. They keep telling me it’s the best food on the ship.

Have a wonderful cruise!!

It's always good to speak to the matre d or whatever the dining room "boss" is called for advice on specific food needs.  I did that for low salt in the MDR and was able to order my dinner the night before for each following night.  I was given the menu for the following night and was advised on what can be made low sodium.  When I was in the WJ, I asked about low sodium.  I was asked what foods I like, was told to have a seat and a waiter brought over two heaping plates of low sodium food.  Very much appreciated.

 

I know they can do the same for gluten free.

Thanks for that good information about low sodium diet options.  I recently went on BP medication and this will be my first cruise where I need to worry about the amount of salt in my food. I figured I'd just have to do the best I could - thank you again!

Makers is a very good wheated bourbon. I do wish they had Maker's 46. That is some really good juice.

That is good, we have done two Quantum class ships, and on a 9 day sailing on the Anthem we got 5 flights on the IFLY, and on 2 Ovation sailings of about 32 days, we have gotten two flights on the iFly.  I am glad to here they are actually trying to make customers happy.

It's a fun experience.  We had a good chef and good table mates

Rum, passion fruit syrup, and lime I believe.

 

The pink one was much better

Concierge found an open slot on Aruba day, and when he called they said just show up tomorrow. Technically we're only allowed once, but reduced guests might mean they're more flexible. 

 

Could be the OS, or the pin, who knows

Tokyo Tea, aka Green Tea, is a Long Island Tea with Midori instead of Coke

 

Vodka, Gin, Rum, Tequila, Triple Sec, sour mix, and Midori, I think

Lol, is it really that simple? 😂

 

I'll try it in the morning 

[John&LaLa]

Boleros to end the night. Karaoke was dull, to many wanna be singers. No drunk idiots.

 

I was considering Love Me Do

 

 

 

I think I'm out of drinks🤣🤣

 

Pretty sure I got hit for Laura's Beringer at lunch.

 

Might test the 12 per cabin theory

She was holding something LP on the picture I quoted.  No mask then.

 

 

Yes, this is her wearing the LP mask that was in her hand later.

 

For the acronym challenged LP is Lilly Pulitzer. 😉

I have to ask...

How do you both stay wonderfully skinny with all that great food and thirst-quenching drinks?

At The Book. 

 

My advice, arrive early😉

Rookie question: do you make show and activities reservations prior to boarding or once on board? Through the royal app? I won’t be in a suite so no concierge to help me this sailing. Thanks

Thanks for the clarification.  I could not figure out what that was Laura was holding.

Both lovely and happy as always.  I am looking forward to finding out how you compare Odyssey to Oasis.
