Thanks - Good luck to your Chiefs tonight!  

KC guy if I remember right?

You got it. I have to drink heavily when I watch them as they never make it easy.

Haha I understand!  Pour a heavy handed old forrester.  You’ll be OK 👌🏻

WiFi: Last but not least - the WiFi was amazing the whole trip.  I had perfect speeds on the balcony.  That NEVER happens.  I uploaded videos here, one of which was over a minute and a half long that only took a minute or so to upload.  I can’t explain what was different in this ship but it was flat out great the whole time.  I never got randomly disconnected from the wi fi for no reason either.  A+ in this area.

 Actually went with a Worthy Park 109 Mai Tai at 54.5% ABV. Helps taking the nerves off.

This cruise fulfills the 10 pts we need to

make D+.     💎➕

 

We hit 140 points on our next cruise so we’ll get out first crystal block. I’m hoping for the old style but expecting the new colorized one. I’ll be happy to get either but I think the old style would match up better in my china cabinet.

 

Thank you very much for a great review. I really enjoyed following along with you, both the story and the pictures.

Explorer was still using the old style.  We just got our block not too long ago from that milestone.  I totally forgot about it on the ship & had to call C&A afterwards.

Casino:  It took all the money.  Extremely smokey to the point it limited my casino time significantly.  I mainly would have played video blackjack/poker machines but there were none of those in the non smoking section.  

 

We saw a woman win over $15,000 on a slot machine.  Just wished it was me since it was the machine next to the one I randomly chose to play earlier that day. 😞

On liberty now and the casino has taken a good bit of our gambling money already too. As for seeing people win at machines you have played, that happens to us every cruise😖🤣😂🤣😂. Well hopefully our luck will turn around and we will bring money back to PA!!🤞🏻

Aw to bad we couldn’t say hi.  We thought about heading to MDR a few times but just never made it or were pre occupied doing other things.  I agree I really enjoyed this cruise and wish it was longer.  Weather in the ports was great.  Little windy that day in Halifax but not terrible.  

We might have seen you in the Diamond lounge! It was not crowded at all

I'll be on Liberty in August.  I've never sailed out of NJ.  Will be cool to see the Statue of Liberty.  I was on Explorer, which I think is similar, and enjoyed it so I'm sure Liberty will be great.

 

Thanks for the review.

Thanks for the review.

Yes it’s similar to Explorer but with a few more bells & whistles.  Layout/Navigating around will feel familiar.  It was for us.

 

Hope you have a great cruise!  Cheers 🍻

It was a brutal game. I was there and had to re-watch parts of it on NFL+ today to get some commentary on what I saw! Hopefully Kelce is back next week and our WR's can catch a ball.

Those dropped passes were hard to watch but not as hard as that entire Steeler game.  Yikes that was ugly. 😔

Good news is it's only one game. Plenty of room for improvement for all the teams.

I know it will be an inconvenience, since you will have to go to a bar, but will you check to see if Schooner Bar has the new drink menu?
