Why?  She’s a professional 

Even professionals possibly stumble after consuming 12 paid for + additional free drinks.

Steak bowl. It’s not Mongolian Wok, but it is pretty good. 

If you go back for lunch on another sea day, try one of the broth bowls, really good.

Pickle ball tournament this evening. Cough @Roscoe13

That's what I'm talkin' bout!!

 

BTW, we had L and T over for grilling last night and I told them that as far as I'm concerned you have ONE job, ONE job!!  They'll be the ones bringing the pickleball net if you get the sports director to see it your way.

 

ONE JOB!!

People are wild. Just making up drinks and asking for them. A lady just ordered a Mangnada. “It’s mango lemonade with gin”. What?!

[MeganGC1983]

Grabbed another Gold Coast from Anna. Have to go count tv screens in Summer Landing.

That would be alcohol abuse and Megan is too smart to waste alcohol

It's a thing.

 

What are the different names for mangonada?

 

 

Mangonada is a frozen mango treat with an infusion of bold flavors – it's sweet, tangy, spicy, & delicious!! It's Mexico's favorite treat and you'll love it too! It goes by many names such as Chamoyada, Mangoneada, Chamango, but they're all the same

The Carnival Pool-just can't do it. Once you've gone Havana can you ever go back?

[MeganGC1983]

There’s the kids scavenger hunt going on. I’ll never understand why kids think bartenders can tell them where random stuff is. Roderic barely speaks English and the kid wants him to tell him where the coin is. I told him instead. 😆 Zombie

I’ll be in Havana for the Tribe cruise in January.

@Roscoe13 in the mornings Pickle Ball open can be accommodated. On sea days, there are tournaments.

I'll be interested in your impression of the new concept with one pool to the side. The Vista Havana is perfect with the large aft pool and two large hot tubs. I had a center Aft Balcony on the Vista a few weeks ago. I spent 3-4 hours a day in the pool

Friday morning I get to tour loft 19 and Havana area as a preview. I’ll make sure to let you know. Pre-tour, I’ll tell you that I prefer the back of the ship option. 
Excel class has a lot of bells and whistles, but I feel like they forgot about Havana and then just added it in at the end.

I’ve been on a duck hunt this whole time. DH found one yesterday. A lady from the roll call gave me the “hairy” one. I need ducks lol

PSA to others, and as always YMMV.  We took a Lyft from FLL to Holiday Inn bayfront in Miami back in 2022.  Upon landing via Alaska Airlines we gathered our bags to step out for our Lyft and we were at terminal One.  Unbeknowst to me, Lyft will only pick you up at terminal Four!!

 

Anyway, point is depending on which gate the airline drops you at you might be in for a hike, whether you want to or not!!

 

Sorry this happened to you after a long flight. Unsure why this happened but I can assure you that under normal circumstances, Lyft, Uber and shuttle bus rides are located in the area between Terminals 1 and 2. I regularly take United Airlines to FLL, arrive at Terminal 1 and take Lyft. Only issue I ever have is having to communicate with my driver in my version of Spanglish.

 

Hope you have a better experience next time.

Had to get a good picture of the red pointe shoes for my oldest.

@MeganGC1983 - if you like espresso martinis, Bar 820 makes a good one! 🍸

I’ve seen a few. Sadly, I don’t do any coffee. Ask those have met me. I don’t need to be on stimulants. 😆
