Open kleenex box is a nice touch

 

Concierge Letter

 

Loyalty Ambassador letter

 

Thanks Ken, will see if it makes it to my folio

 

$64,000 question. Does Laura's card have vouchers on it?

[John&LaLa]

No sunrise on starboard side

 

Balcony stinks. I think my neighbors are pot heads 😐 

[John&LaLa]

Izumi Hibachi. Dude is short. Turns out he's sitting

 

Basic dinner

 

Sushi with dinner

 

Edamame was tasty

 

Salad not so much. Odd dressing

 

No ocean view like Oddysey 

 

Philipino Chef checking our orders

 

Cooking supplies

Perhaps make friends with them? Even a contact high could help you eat more!

Was it really only 80 there as it says on the compass? It was 95 at our house!

Quick go make friends.

THC, the psychoactive compound that produces weed's “high,” has been shown to trigger hunger

Brutal out here near Disney with you and in pretty much all of central FL right now.

GMTA! 🤣

[John&LaLa]

Let's watch the show

 

Never seen a raw egg added late

 

I asked for some scallions added to my bowl

 

Extra became Mickey Mouse

 

World's smallest volcano

 

Seriously

 

Should have asked for more onions up front.

Breakfast starts at 7:30 in Chops. May pass.

 

Likely go to lounge for coffee and apple danish

[John&LaLa]

Let's cook some meat

 

BTW, I ordered Tenderloin and shrimp

 

Hopefully Medium Rare

 

Nope, definitely overcooked. Apparently the difference between Med Rare and Medium is I got mine served first. Medium came off ten seconds later

 

Seafood

 

Shrimp looking good so far

 

Very tasty. Ate em all

 

I heard scallops were not good. Definitely not seared on both sides, but lobster was good

 

Chicken was the go to dish for our Canadian tablemates. It looked good. Often dry

 

Sesame balls for dessert. Very good, ate two

 

$10 upcharge for UDP folks, but it included the premium side, and of course an 18% tip on top. I padded it.

 

[John&LaLa]

Ok, that should be all yesterdays food.

 

Time for coffee.

 

Battery at 73%

I am definitely upgrading equipment for world cruise

Thanks for the recap! Enjoy my friend, the coffee machine!

Oops, forgot something 

 

Up 3.2 lbs

 

Fairly active for me

Arriving Nassau. Land Ho.

 

Did I mention I am directly above the Pilot transfer hatch

 

Really can't see them get on or off due to hump overhang

Dry is about right. Only comes medium well.

Basically a hockey puck from a Bolts win

 

And it must have been cold too… been a while since a Bolts win. 😉

They always start slow. Need to get back to freindly territory 😇

SL coffee machine. Had a double cappuccino with 5 sugars and an extra espresso. Thank goodness they had tall cups

 

DL machine is the upgraded one similar to Oddysey, but not quite as fancy. Made my signature Cuban with 3 sugars ☕

 

Breakfast was one apple danish. So good 👍 

 

Oh, and here's the Oddysey machine for comparison

So, there was discussion earlier in week that the free ride for B2B was over in PC.

 

Decided to park in the garage to verify the rumor. I'm a team player😉

 

Absolutely no signage saying you had to pay extra if you were B2B. Seriously. Just pay $68 and go on your merry way.

 

Now the rumor is that PC scans your plate upon entrance, then you have to post nose in so they can scan your plate to verify how long you have been parked. Then they bill you or ticket you for staying to long.

 

Not true, half the deck seems to be backed in

 

So my truth meter calls BS to this rumor. 

Seriously

 

 

Same with us two weeks ago.   Paid for the one week on Harmony...vehicle still there without wheel chocks when we retrieved it two weeks later.  😉 

 

And I pulled in forward, due to having to drag suitcases out of the hatch.

Was primarily referring to the person who said they are scanning plates and writing tickets.

 

That's BS for sure

 

Sorry your B2B experience was unfortunate. 

Parking garage was half empty at 10:15. Arrive early 😉

 

Probably best to call me out on the other thread, not here. The parking portion of this thread is complete. Let's not disrupt this experience 

 

Oops sorry.  Too late.  😮
