The entertainment on this ship has me really intrigued.

 

Reminds me a lot of Odyssey.

It’s always interesting to hear from the cast and crew who bring all the entertainment together on the ship.  
 

Captain’s Corner up next

Does Anthem have Tap Factory and Effectors also?  Have yet to discover that ship.

Probably not worth the commute over the local choices.

It does not. 🙂  Anthem has We Will Rock You, which is an awesome production.  And Spectra's Cabaret, which was a "once and done" for us.  Not bad, just not our taste.

Indeed.  Thanks!  That was why the new shows on Wonder reminded me of Odyssey.  😉  

 

Both Wonder and Odyssey have Effectors, Tap Factory, and apparently a close version of "The Book" (Voices).  🙂

Is there an iCafe on Wonder?  I've been through the deck plan a couple of times and don't fine one.

We don't want to buy a Voom package - we'd like to "unplug" for our vacation - however, we would like to check in online for our flight.

iCafe availability makes no diff in terms of being able to check in for a flight - you'll need some kind of internet/Voom package to do that. There may be a short duration package on the last day or you can probably get about 15 min of internet free while connected to the App/Play store (an option in the app).

I spoke with him once about the live critters in the park too.  Hitch hikers mostly, birds, butterflies, moths and even lizards.  He showed me around the potting "closet".  Nice guy and really interesting.  You have to sometimes look really hard to see all that he is responsible for...like little secrets!

Fun fact - US Department of Agriculture comes aboard on turn around days to inspect Central Park for signs of infestation and bugs. 

 

I wonder if any the hitch hiking birds, butterflies, moths or lizards are identified as to weather they can stay on board or need to be removed if they are determined to be an invasive species?

Captain Rob is always a lot of fun to listen in Captain’s Corner.

Thank you for doing this review, it's great!  I'm doing the transatlantic on 4/20 and this is all fun to see.  Is there a library on the ship stocked with books?  I carry a kindle but traveling friends are asking.  Thank you!

[twangster]

Cheers with an Officer.

I haven’t seen one yet and most libraries on various ships have had the books removed due to protocols at the moment.

Loving all the post and the overload of photos.

No need to apologize.

Thank you for sharing the photos of Puerto Rico,

Very beautiful!

No, it's for D+ who have attained 340 points and above.  Pinnies usually have their own lunch, which is pretty much identical.  Can be held same day, or different day.

Late night Mason Jar.  
 

After 9:30pm there is a late night menu. 
 

 

 

Thanks for the menu shot of their bourbon and whiskey. Finally some decent brands are being offered.

Last week they said they were hoping to get the parade going on the 2nd or 3rd cruise for Wonder.

Was the JR Breakfast still free?

 

There can never be too many @twangster pictures.  Doesn't matter if it's one post or spread out.  More please, always.

Yes.

The Suite Sun Deck was pretty busy on this sea day so here is a quick peek until I can get some better photos.

Mildly interesting…

 

The Solarium roof is comprised of air pillows.   
 

 

Air hoses allow pumps to keep the pillows inflated

 

 

This is lightweight but also air has an insulation aspect that aids with keeping the Solarium temperature regulated.  
 

The same concept can be found on some stadiums.  
 

The Aqua Theater backdrop uses the same air pillows.
