That will be us on Friday. 😎 Yes, Sir - we saw all y'all in there. It was exciting, wasn't it? Hopefully it won't be the best show you see all week.🤣 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 24, 2023 Author #277 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Good morning, Sea Day. Kinda rolly last 🌙 with some lightning. Couldn't get pictures of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw some great pictures of Lady Liberty 🗽- much better than we got last week. Here are some night views we got later before the winds started up. And a few from the morning as the fog was rolling in. Thank you for sharing all the info and trip report. Haven't seen anything about the CD. I was looking forward to seeing Marc Q because my friend had him a few yrs back and really liked him but as luck has it, hes on vacation. Had one leaving from San Juan guy was just horrible. Hardly made announcements, not engaging. The best CDs for me was Matt Mitcham on Breeze and Ryan Ross on Magic last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 24, 2023 Author #282 Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) Still foggy; seas a little rolly, but not too bad. Likely preparing me for TA this fall.🫣 We have 3 windows, actually 2 windows and a door, with beds separated. The view out the door is completely blocked for the person in the bed closest to the door. We just pull the curtain open as far as possible then close it inside the closet door.

Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 24, 2023 Author #288 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Steak at Teppanyaki was beautiful. Everyone said the 🍤 🦐 and 🦞 were gorgeous, as well. I'll let you judge. Soup was extra pretty today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 24, 2023 Author #289 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Still very froggy out - maybe even more. Seas seem rougher, but not problematic for us. I have not checked our location or weather forecast, but I have to think our excursion tomorrow cannot operate in this kind of weather. Granted, we can certainly get past this before morning, so I will check the weather. We are not spending time on our awesome balcony or on the Terrazzo 😞 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to Shore Exc first day; they have a book to sign you up. Spots go quickly, so be sure to go right away. They will tell you when it "could" be, but you'll find out your specific time when you get your tickets. It should be some time morning of next to last or last sea day, depending on how many sea days you have at the end. Last week's tour they said they could have filled 3 tours there were so many people that signed up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 24, 2023 Author #294 Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) Tomorrow's FunTimes freshly delivered. And ducks for hiding on way to MDR. Considered going to Lido for dinner since neither of us really wild about MDR menu, but decided it might be crowded. Somehow our dining time got changed during the transition from last week to this week even though both had been confirmed for late (which is 7:45). Got it switched, will have new Server at diff table. But I'm sure it will be fine. We will know shortly.

Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 24, 2023 Author #295 Share Posted September 24, 2023 New table - great location near Service station but out of traffic flow. 2 ducks hidden (pink & red) - not well or creatively, but hidden. And 1 found (green). Mission accomplished. QR_Menu-FEAST-2_VX.pdf 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistycruiser Posted September 24, 2023 #296 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I love the Teppanyaki and I order the same thing you do, Terriyaki chicken and steak. I eat so much fried rice I have a hard time finishing my entree 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 24, 2023 Author #297 Share Posted September 24, 2023 @happycruiser220 my unofficial young cruiser count is now at 20. I did count the one that was crawling under the chairs & table in MDR only once.🫣 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really appreciate they let me order teriyaki chicken instead of the spicy chicken even though it's not on the menu. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Haljo1935 Posted September 25, 2023 Author #300 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) MDR saw a few people practicing dressy dress and a couple masks. This young man turned before I could take a picture so you can't see his bow tie. Dinner was Greek Spinach Pie, 4 season salad w/balsamic vinaigrette & Grand Marnier souffle. Sis had Fettuccine Alfredo, no salad & banana split. The Greek Pie was extremely flaky; GM souffle was VERY good, served warm. Sis said fettuccine was very heavy on the mushrooms. Of course, we got dinner & a show. Dinnerwk2.m4a QR_Menu-FEAST-2_VX.pdf Edited September 25, 2023 by Haljo1935 Uploads 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
