This was a convo from The Tribe thread. Ashley and Franco were @blarko’s neighbors on her last cruise. They decorated their door looking for options but didn’t care enough to turn their pineapple upside down. We decided they were lazy lovers based on their door decor. 😆

I hear Phil Collins now...

"You're a lazy lover...!"

Private cocktail hour for work. Champagne.

Officer introductions.

Whew, all caught up. Loved the Celebration back during the first week of May. Really didn't think I would considering her size but had a great time. Seemed far less crowded that it is. Golden Jubilee, Latitudes and P&A for the music were our faves and we didn't eat once in the MDR with all the other options!

Carnival canopy… small beef Wellington, sushi, shrimp, chicken. Etc. 

[Stallion]

Ha! My middle name is Wellington so I self-annoited myself as "Beef Wellington" as a nickname. 

[TrqoisWtrs]

yay, another Megan review!

 

I see Jason ❤️.  He's usually over at Golden Jubilee.  I don't like sweet drinks, but if you like the Girl Scout's Thin Mints, you gotta try a Grasshopper.  yummy  😊

Sitting here at the “atrium bar” people still boarding. All the questions about the port tax and cheers and people getting cut off because of mustard. 

Had several of those Twilight Zone drinks. Pretty pretty tasty

Here’s my gripe about the bigger ships. There’s so many people, it’s hard to make a bartender connection. That’s why “my guys” stay on smaller ships. Arias would love to be here only because they keep sending him to Australia. Anything but Australia. 😆 He thinks he’s heading out on the Freedom from Barcelona next. 

I made a connection with Maria at the Alchemy Bar.  If she’s still there (she said her contract didn’t end until January), PLEASE tell her Dan (who always drank habanero vodka drinks that she made), said hello.

 

The other 2 Alchemists when I was on the Celebration at the end of June were Boshko and Dexter.

Will do. DH isn’t a big Alchemy fan but I drag him there occasionally.

Thank you.  Here are the 3 I mentioned. Boshko (on the right) was supposed to be there until September.  I don’t know the specific date.  Don’t know about Dexter.

Came up to Golden Jubilee and got a Christine’s Fav. It’s very good, but I need to slow down a bit.  I have things to do lol

Note to self: Get this in January!

Listening to Tom Petty “won’t back down” at Latitude bar. Gotta check the Hub app and see who this is. I like him.

Maria from Mexico right? She was great when she was on Mardi Gras. She also worked at the Red Frog Tiki bar. She made great personalized drinks. That habanero vodka sounds delicious!

Yes, Maria from Mexico (but who now lives in Indianapolis - according to her).  She is outstanding!   I discovered the habanero infused vodka drinks a few years ago on the Freedom.

And I think that is Owen Stephens, also from Mardi Gras! He was great. DH and I went to see him at numerous bars.

Steel drums playing at center stage. I’m just waiting on a 7:15 reservation at Teppanyaki 

[MeganGC1983]

They are playing Margaritaville. Again RIP. Watch your flip flops. 
I’m early.
