That doesn’t look like a Whole Maine Lobster.

It’s split in half and they placed the meat from the claws under the crab meat with cheese sauce on top.  I like the fact that is not a lot of cheese and you can still taste the lobster!

Benny do you make reservations for you Izumi snack and your later dinner?

YES!  As they ramp up it is very important that you make reservations for specialty dinning.  The days of walking in to specialty dinning is in the rear view mirror now.  If you get a schedule conflict error, just go to specialty dinning venue and have them make it for you.  They can override that.  It will most likely conflict with shows too, so I suggest that if you are on the ship before noon with UDP, ask where they are booking shows, go there get all your shows in, then head over to whichever lunch place is open (usually Jamie’s or Giovanni’s and make your dinning reservations there).  A sign that specialty restaurants will be busy is when you don’t see staff pushing packages or have a table set up with specialty dinning menus to push packages for specialty  dinning.

Yay, another live report to follow.

I do have one question...is there a charge to use the machines  in the gym? Thanks.

The fitness center is free to use.  The spin cycle is for spin class only and there is a fee for the class.  Peloton (where available) is free to use if you have a paid account otherwise there is a charge.

Day 1

 

I was supposed to see Hiro the aqua show tonight but due to wind it has been canceled.  I did not hear an announcement and I only found out because I was looking at the  app and saw Hiro pop up at 5PM on Day 3.  That’s going to interfere with my snack… such tough choices!

Day 1

 

Instead of the aqua show I went to the Royal Theater instead to see David Lucas.

Day 1

 

Meet our Cruise director Dennis!  He is fabulous!  Funny, personable, relatable all the qualities you want in a cruise director!

Day 1 Royal Theater

 

David Lucas Comedy Variety 

 

This guy is great.  He is funny and talented.  Usually juggling is not my thing but he was telling jokes while juggling and he was very funny without being mean.  Great show!

That pizza line has been none stop!  I think it’s because of the number of teens on this cruise… all lined up for pizza!

If you squint just right and look at this picture from a certain angle, I swear it says. "Welcome On Board Benny Of The Seas."

I started reading this thread on my iPad, and there were only7 pages. Caught up on page 10!
 

I’m happy to be sailing along with you again!
