First drink of the day back at The Dock House... Patron Reposado margarita with Cointreau, and his special ingredient that makes it "frothy"...

With the wristband, is it just a scan for your drinks, or do you have to sign each time?

Scan and nothing to sign, but I always leave a cash tip...

@sid_9169....and the OFFICIAL Sid verdict on this is........?

[sid_9169]

I'm probably a little past mine, actually...

Still not as good as mine at home, but I'm sticking with this guy and the other one who works at Extra Virgin Bar in the evening...

[sid_9169]

Another one of those, and he poured the extra in my old glass... That's one of my pet peeves at most bars. They mix and shake the drink in the shaker, then fill your glass. What's leftover in the shaker just gets thrown away... I like that he notices this, and offers the remnants too... He'll be making a lot of tips this week just from me...

Ryan... Don't tell anyone else... Tell him to make the special margarita ordered by "James" with Patron Reposado and Cointreau...

I'm a long time lurker of CC boards, never commented or even felt the need to make an account until about 4 minutes ago, but just wanted to say I always enjoy reading your live reports and am enjoying slacking off at work while I read this one. Have a margarita (or three) for me.

I'll do that! Thanks for reading! Gotta pass the time at work somehow...

 And it's definitely not going to be by doing, you know, actual work.

JinxyB wanted me to pick her up a Virgin Voyages t shirt, so we've been trying to coordinate which one via picture messaging... She finally picked this one... (I say "finally" because I sent her a lot of pictures, not that she's not a great decision maker... Certainly better than me in her major life choices...)

 

 

 

 

[sid_9169]

A few from Squid Ink, the on board tattoo shop... Maybe JinxyB would like one of these dolls?...

Awwww… those are more like stuffed animals vs a creepy doll (but don’t get me one lol 😆)

[southernredhead]

The onboard tattoo shop is a great feature. I like how they have a rotating roster of guest artists, too. I'd totally be down for getting something done there.

The end product should be a reasonably full (half an inch from rim) glass, if the right glassware and ice cubes were chosen. The bartenders should know the volume of the glass, the ice cube(s), and the drink. 
 

Well at least you were given all the product you purchased…

Do you request these without a salt rim?

[sid_9169]

Cruising right along... We're somewhere near the West end of Cuba and about to head South towards Cozumel...

 

 

 

 

[sid_9169]

Straight Patron Reposado with four ice cubes... Saving calories for dinner...

 

 

[sid_9169]

The on board gym, which a lot of people frequent in the earlier part of the day... I remember watching the helicopter evacuation from here on my last cruise. You can check out the pool deck from here too...

 

 

 

[sid_9169]

It's a party on the pool deck now... There's a group of about seven girls who've been out here since this morning, and they're good and drunk now... Partying like it's 1999, even though none of them were probably even born then... (That's them in the second picture, red swimsuits on the right...)
