We can't swing it as I am already 2 days short of vacation days for the 12 days I need already for the 18 days off I am taking. LMAO Mr. SRQ is retired, but I've told him I will not be retiring with any expectations of receiving a check for a maxed-out paid time off account balance. I intend to use every single minute of my vacation time--it's the only thing that keeps me sane! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted May 10, 2023 #205 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Wow! I'm thankful but surprised we got an update on Devils game day! (I say, anxiously awaiting faceoff for the Stars trying to avoid going down 3-1 on the road) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvcruzing Posted May 10, 2023 #207 Share Posted May 10, 2023 (edited) Well, I’ll be darned. They actually moved the toilet paper roll where it belongs. Just off the Magic, and I wondered why they would put the toilet paper in the Kleenex position, where you had to be a contortionist to reach it. Glad they fixed that issue. Now, if they would move that towel rack from under the sink to the wall behind the toilet. Anytime I was near the sink, the towels would end up on the floor, which was at least twice daily. I’ll be following along, just trying to catch up. Thanks for doing, this, Jeff. My next cruise is on the Celebration.

Rare Jamman54 Posted May 10, 2023 Author #213 Share Posted May 10, 2023 At 2:30 pm we decide to head back to the ship. There is a line of taxis waiting right by the entrance to take you back.

Rare Jamman54 Posted May 10, 2023 Author #218 Share Posted May 10, 2023 After dinner we made our way to Center Stage to see the Most Magnificent Circus. When we arrived, we were told that due to a technical issue that show would not be performed tonight, but would be rescheduled for later in the cruise. Instead, they will be performing Ringmaster Rhapsody, where the cast will sing songs from The Greatest Showman and Pippen. We had seen this show on the Mardi Gras last year, but we decided to stay anyway….. Afterwards, we stopped at the Alchemy Bar for a couple of drinks before calling it a night. Here is tonight’s towel animal….. Coming up next: A beautiful, but crowded day in Costa Maya! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for taking us back to Paradise Beach! Five stops at Cozumel, five visits to PB for us - the last time we were there we asked sons if they wanted to do something different. They looked at us as if we were crazy - "Go to Cozumel and NOT go to Paradise Beach?" And when we first started, all they had in the way of water toys was the iceberg.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was employed by them but nope he was a Celebration passenger. Patti missed the significant other go up there and take her off the stage. My DH just faced the water and ship the whole time.😂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRLC Posted May 11, 2023 #221 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Enjoying your review! We will be at Paradise Beach in June and also have a daybed reserved. We have been to Paradise Beach once and had the all inclusive ( No daybed). Did you have to reserve the table and chairs separately or does it come with the daybed reservation? TIA 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA Thanks for reading! Our server took the reserved sign off of our daybed and put it on the nearest table. Don't know if that's standard practice or not. 😀 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbri Posted May 11, 2023 #223 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Another great review. Really enjoyed your nostalgic pictures. I did a double-take of your pictures on your way down to FL. We just returned from a land trip to Niagara Falls and stayed over at a Country Inn & Suites in the Finger Lakes Region and had dinner at a Ruby Tuesdays 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, Patti had to take pictures before I or our luggage was allowed inside. This is Cabin # 12354….. Our extended balcony….. To be continued….. We had the bump out balcony directly below you last week (#11358) and it had two loungers, a table and a single chair. We enjoyed lounging out there with the shade for sea day afternoons. Anyone know if you get one configured like this will they honor a request to swap a chair with another lounger? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
