Rare Illbcruzn4life Posted October 17, 2022 #176 Share Posted October 17, 2022 19 hours ago, Ozark_Kid said: AMBER THEATER This is another tip. The Amber Theater can get cold. There are vents under the seats. Last night the cold air blew up the left side of the chair and it was very cold. Tonight I can still feel cold but not as bad as last night. So some chairs can be colder than others. With that said you might want to bring a jacket. OMG you aren't kidding. We went to one show and sat in the lower level. A group of people went to their cabins to get blankets and get items to put over the vents. It was like a meat locker down there. After that my wife would not sit in the lower level. lol 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you get both at the same time? How is the new iPhone working. Edited October 17, 2022 by Ozark_Kid I put camera instead of iPhone. 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not working yet. I talked to the main IT guy. They tried to boot it up the day before we cruised. He said everyone started calling about problems. It could handle the numbers on board. He said Starlink tech is still working on it. The OB3 has been good enough that we were able to stream football on the ESPN app. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed vents under Harmony seats but it wasn't that cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ozark_Kid Posted October 17, 2022 Author #183 Share Posted October 17, 2022 @aubreyc1988 Is this where you saw them working on it? Keith noticed someone working up there earlier. When you zoom in it looks like a Starlink satellite receiver. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJSailors Posted October 17, 2022 #184 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Yes! I recognize the Pusser’s Rum label and can picture the bottle now. That is the recipe we followed. The orange juice made the drink different from the Pina Colada. Reminds me of the good old Summertime parties on our deck ! Thank you !

They all had great voices. I thought their between songs jokes were a little corny (my mother was a big girl and she cried at the end of Free Willy), but the singing more than made up for it. Since they couldn't fly headliners on and off the ship for our TP cruise, they were always hanging out on the ship somewhere. The lead guy in the group was usually easy to spot. I agree with the jokes, 🌽. Also there dance moves need a lot of work but all of their voices were great. I heard they will not stay onboard after this cruise. If they are on a future cruise I would want to watch them again. I was surprised that I knew all but 2 of the songs.

We just got back to the room to get ready for Giovanni’s so I am not sure when I will start posting Labadee pics. We booked most of our dinners at 5pm so we could finish and get to the earlier shows. It was a mistake. Not much time between eating lunch and dinner. But like Sharon says, ON a cruise you don't need to be hungry to eat! I am thankful Jim is doing better.

Oh I never saw anyone working on anything, staff members told me they were doing a test run of starlink on my Oct 1 sailing. Obviously not a great test run 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tribute to Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. BigGirls_201004.mp4 14.34 MB · 0 downloads Oh, I would have loved that! The reason I asked you about Dazzles is I thought I read somewhere it was used to showcase tribute bands much like the Music Hall does on other Oasis class ships. I'm guessing this is in the main theater. Glad you got to enjoy that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you again, John. You got home Thursday evening. We were able to fly non-stop into Philly, which is around 1 and a half hours from home.

I can remember being on a plane flying home and thinking that was the first sensation of hunger I has felt since boarding the ship and making my first visit to the Windjammer eight days previously. It isn't about hunger on a cruise, it is about whether there is room to eat more. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mconthehighseas Posted October 17, 2022 #194 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I hope you don't mind a stowaway on this thread! I'm going with my family on Allure out of Galveston in December (booked last week), and wanted to get tips and info about the ship when I found this. And it looks like I came to the right place!. We were on Harmony in 2018, but haven't cruised since 2019, so I'm relearning some things. Loving all the pics! Mindy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order as many entrees as you want. I did the Lobster Thermidor and the veal together. The lobster is not that big. Phone is great but I haven’t shot hardly anything in the 48mp Raw format. Too much of a pain to down convert and upload to CC. I do think the camera performs really well in low light. So far I’m very impressed. I need to start shooting in 48mp and see what it can do. Looks like you are having a blast. Me too I just don’t have the stamina after the injury. I’m drinking way less. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ozark_Kid Posted October 18, 2022 Author #197 Share Posted October 18, 2022 We ate at Giovanni’s tonight and it was great. Right now the Aqua show is about to start. I may wait for our at sea day to share Labadee, Giovanni’s and the Aqua show. We are having a great time and thankful you are all following along. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ozark_Kid Posted October 18, 2022 Author #198 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Before it starts. People keep asking if the ships are full. I don't know the exact number but this one is and it is a great thing. We have met sooo many new people and enjoyed great conversations. I enjoyed the reduced numbers but this is the way it should be. All we have come across have been so nice. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ozark_Kid Posted October 18, 2022 Author #200 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) I tried a new setting tonight called Hyperlapse. It is like time-lapse but you don't need a tripod to hold it steady. Here is an example from the flowrider tonight.
