Is there a door that goes from the Haven directly to Vibe (can be opened with your key card only after you add Vibe to it). Thanks! Haven’t seen that door! So, don’t know.

Exactly what you’re supposed to do. I love GSC, I usually just bring my snorkel gear and go for a swim in the bay. There is actually a fair amount of underwater life along the rock walls. I'll be glad to be there again next month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare graphicguy Posted July 10, 2022 Author #186 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Just went through the Garden Cafe….this was the scene…people being taken care of…no lines. Stark contrast to my Ovation of the Seas cruise last Spring where they couldn’t accommodate passengers in the Windjammer (their sign said “sold out”)… 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare graphicguy Posted July 10, 2022 Author #187 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) Ocean Blu Specialty Restaurant….as good as EDEN on Celebrity, just without the theatrics…excellent. Plus, I didn’t have to put long pants on since I dined along the Waterfront, with a slight breeze and perfect early evening weather… Edited July 10, 2022 by graphicguy 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruiseny4life Posted July 11, 2022 #191 Share Posted July 11, 2022 I will never understand why diners enjoy cutting up a wedge - hope it was yummy! The one in Cagney's is good, still odd though! Anyway, if you don't mind, would you be able to find out who the Haven Restaurant Manager is? Please, and thank you kind sir! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah….internet is tough to use. Posting pics means attaching them, taking several sips of hydration fluid and hoping they don’t disappear and I have to start all over. Frustrating, given how much I paid for the premium package. No BTS, etc. Did get the pin and the “special gift”. Will track down Management! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare graphicguy Posted July 11, 2022 Author #197 Share Posted July 11, 2022 So, little bit of a late night at the casino and nightcaps. Not so good at the casino. Nightcaps we’re good, though! Just hanging out in the balcony drinking copious amounts of “Just Water” to stem what might be a slow a.m. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare graphicguy Posted July 11, 2022 Author #199 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Feeling a little more human, but missed breakfast and forgot to put in my room service order last night. Not like I can’t afford to miss a meal. But….COFFEE is imperative. Gathering thoughts, remembering conversations and reminiscing, I think I had large fun last night. 😉😉 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
