Ebony Cabaret/Punchliner. Bar is in the way back. 
 

 

 

 

 

ugh. We just wrapped up our Sub-Saharan Africa unit at school. CAN’T ESCAPE IT. 

 

[TxTeach79]

Hard to see, but the 12:15 line at Guy’s is bonkers 

 

[TxTeach79]

Go time 

 

 

 

Blue’s Patron Margarita from Darma. 
 

[TxTeach79]

Side note - I asked for a standard marg on the rocks with Santo Reposado (wanted to try it out) and Darma told me if I did the Patron marg I’d get two shots, Santo I’d get one. I got the Patron. 
 

[TxTeach79]

Hard at work

I like sailing from NOLA, but this facility is a lame experience. It’s packed inside. I can’t get a great picture because my arms are pinned down by people beside me and it would be weird at this proximity. 
 

there’s no Dia/Plat/FTTF seating area. Only suites. Plus, you’re literally seated by agents. Can’t sit where you want. They don’t leave a single seat open either. This doesn’t do it Justice. 
 

 

 

No thanks. I’ll stand! 😉

he’s back. He’s found me. The rivalry continues 

 

[TxTeach79]

12:50pm on embarkation day glass elevators to Lido. A special kind of full. 
 

 

i do miss this on the newer ships

 

[TxTeach79]

We’ve reached the “it’s 1pm and people are antsy about getting to their room”

phase. Tables are full all over Promenade and Lido with card playing and public napping. Found me a cozy cool spot in Bar Blue, because I too am ready to rest a little before Sailaway 

 

[TxTeach79]

Bar Blue is about 10 degrees cooler than the rest of the ship. I’m def gonna hang here til rooms are ready. 

[TxTeach79]

Very Buffett forward playlist on public areas so far. Digging it.

 

also, first two comedians

Kinda chaotic outside. Big line spilling outside of the entrance, but zero in the Dia/Plat line 

 

Is it for FTTF too?

That’s the answer I was expecting!!!

[TxTeach79]

yep!

[TxTeach79]

I can’t get over how tiny the TVs are on some of the older ships. Also, how hard is it to get the menu system on Vista class and newer on these ships? Seems odd to me 

 

[TxTeach79]

Weird cabin, weird chair. No idea why it’s set up in twins. I’ll have them fix that tonight. 
 

 

 

 

 

[TxTeach79]

Hearing every peep in the hall ATM. I’m right by the staircase, rooms just opened, and they’re dropping luggage so I get it. TBD on that. 

[TxTeach79]

Never seen this before. Don’t even call it a fridge. OR ELSE.
