Gym is still open, in case you need to burn off some last minute calories.

Seems like only yesterday that I was standing in line waiting to board. Now, this cruise is winding down, and there'll be a whole new set of passengers on board, me among them. I'm looking forward to getting back to Key West after having not been there in about five years. What will happen on the next chapter of the Scarlet Lady? Tune in here to find out...

A few more pictures from my afternoon over here. I didn't take many, I've just been "on vacation" for awhile...

Dang. Bars closing at 9? So much for the party lifestyle ... 

That does feel early. I would hope that things would stay open until midnight or so on the last night 😞

@sid_9169 here's my suggestion- go to Guest Services and make them help you with the app to see your next cruise so you can fill out the Health app... assuming they can do that, I bet your booze purchase would show up for your next cruise!

It only took your first cruise to finally earn the "rare" badge. I'm looking forward to your next half 👍

Just can't believe so much is closed down so early tonight, crazy!

@sid_9169, just wanted to drop in and say.

 

You done a great job on this here live review.  Can't wait for the next leg.

First shot I’ve seen of bare feet on furniture this cruise...

Quarantine is on deck 9, and you're not even allowed to go down the hallway there. These are definitely regular Virgin Voyages to go boxes.

 

 

 

Is that the entire deck or are the aft suites not closed off? The website automatically assigned me an aft suite on deck 9 for next year but now I'm worried my suite won't be available as others also seem to say deck 9 is the quarantine deck on Valiant and the other aft suites are sold out already...

 

Love your live review by the way!

Strange dreams, the shuddering of the ship, and a terrible leg cramp in the middle of the night kept me tossing and turning. I wanted to scream out in pain, but it was the middle of the night. It's safe to say that I was writhing in pain for a good several minutes, and it still hurts this morning... Anyhoo, I've got to get up and get moving... Yes, moving literally today to a brand new cabin! But, first I need a couple of cups of that four dollar Americano...

[sid_9169]

Looks like a spectacular day out today in beautiful Miami...

 

 

 

[sid_9169]

Hopefully this is enough fuel to get me going.

 

 

[sid_9169]

Looks like I've still got a lot of clothes to wear this next sailing.

 

 

[sid_9169]

I'm going to go ahead and pack my dirty clothes and liquor in my hard side suitcase... Don't tell the guys that I work with that I'm using my dirty clothes to pad their loot!

@Sid_9169.....leg cramps could be from lactic acid build up....happens to my other half all the time....dehydration, not drinking enough water!

[sid_9169]

I'm almost finished packing up my dirty clothes and liquor... Next, is breakfast a shower then it'll be moving time...

 

 

[Hogladyrider]

@sid_9169....will have to catch up with this move for your B2B later today.  We have to go back to work today,,,,,sigh....but will have something to look forward to when I am exhausted from working in the garden and bending over!

[sid_9169]

Pretty soon, I'll be abandoning my old "home", and moving on up to the East side...

 

 

[sid_9169]

Same exact spot where I sat for my final breakfast on board last time around.

 

 

[sid_9169]

I guess that the irony is, that whenever I sit down in The Galley to upload some pictures or something else, nine people will come by to try and take my food order. But, when I come in to actually eat, I end up having to try and flag somebody down to get any service... I really wish that they would just let you go to the particular station that you want to order from, and place your order there...
