Hi Jessy,  

Fellow Canadian here.

Was it easy to book shows and get what you wanted once onboard?  My hubby and I will be joining you on Friday!!!  So excited to be finally getting back out there!!!!

We have not had a chance to go to any shows yet but I have not heard of any issues booking.  I just checked the app and Cats is not showing for tomorrow night anymore so I am not sure if maybe it has been cancelled.  I will try to find out.

It was very weird getting off the ship and just crossing the street.  I already have my first load of laundry going 😂

 

I waved to you!  Did you see me?  😉

Cats is still in the app - but it's sold out.  

 

Shar, it's very easy to reserve shows in the app.  Just do it ASAP.  🙂

I mean, based on that Is Cats Still on Oasis thread, it sounds like you can just wait in the lobby, and attendees will be fleeing in droves throughout the performance. 😆 Plenty of seating will be available!

That is what I experienced on my October cruise.

Sailing away as the homestead fades into the distance!!

At the performance which I attended last week, I observed NO departures before the final notes.

The fog horn is going strong!

Holy crap!  Currently sitting in the armchairs by the casino bar. A guest just went into the table pit to the right in the smoking section.  Not sure what he was trying to accomplish but security and the casino crew tried to get him out and he started struggling and throwing punches. They took him to the ground in seconds.  There is now a huge crowd watching.  It’s been several minutes and he is still being held to the ground.  Medical officers are here as well to monitor him.  The crew is handling it very calmly.  I see an RCL ban in someone’s future!!!

[JessyCruises]

They just tried to escort him out of the casino through the door that leads to the main dining room and he started freaking out again and they had to take him down again.  Four crew  ended up grabbing a arm and leg each and carried him out.  😕

This is a pic someone posted on the FB page for this cruise.  This is the craziest thing g I have seen.

We are now settled into the Solarium and checked in for cruise #2. 

 

We were supposed to meet in the Theatre for 8AM but they were late opening it up because they were waiting for a customs officer.  I think we eventually entered the theater at around 8:30. The customs officer checked our passports as we entered.  We then went to a table and provided our old cabin numbers and were given an envelope with our new keys and a number.  This number dictated where you were to sit.  They had us sitting in the theatre with a full empty row separating each group.  Crew then made their way down the line making sure that our vaccines and photos were uploaded.  If not, they registered them for us.  We were out of there by 9:36AM.

 

One thing I noticed on the last B2B we took is right before they start letting new guests on, a crew member comes over the intercom with some motivational messages and a breakdown of the passenger counts.  It was a little hard to hear this time, but I think this is what she said:

 

5817 guests

53 Pinnacles

199 Diamond+

400 Diamonds

 

We met one of the lab techs/nurses that does the testing onboard the other night in the casino.  She said they expect to have 700 kids onboard this week (6/10-6/17).

What a wonderful cruise! Enjoy ur next leg JC! 

 

Could you hear the ships fog horns that started going off every 2 minutes (yes I timed them) when we were leaving Saint John? OMG I didn't get much sleep Wednesday night.  Those horns kept me up all night. I finally went to guest services for ear plugs Thursday morning.

We have done several B2Bs since the restart but this is the first time we have seen the Consecutive Cruise lunch being offered.

 

Here is the letter we received in our cabin.
 

Lunch was offered from 12:00 - 1:30.

 

Menu:

 

We both had the scallops to start.

 

I had the short rib.

 

Paul had the Cajun chicken.

 

It was actually the 1st time I have made it to a B2B lunch and it was a nice change.

That's us!  Our unit is one of the ones with an entrance directly on the street.

 

Are you onboard again this week?  I am sorry I did not get to meet you in person.

[MarlenaBR]

I am enjoying your review.   We love doing b2b2bs.   Being on a ship for a month is so nice.    

There is another thread that is saying WJ does not have an omelet station.  Is this true?    I always love getting my morning omelet.

Correct.  And there was MUCH GROUSING about that.

 I tried to reply to this post earlier but I am still having wifi issues. We are not breakfast people and have not been in the WJ for it.  With that being said, based on a B2Ber that went off on the staff checking us in this morning on the B2B that felt the need to loudly and publicly air his various grievances for all that could hear, including the audacity of RCL not to have a live omelet station, I am guessing there is no station at this time 🙂
