Rare jam19872016 Posted December 4, 2023 Author #526 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Another gorgeous day outside. A little too hot for me as we travel south but probably perfect for many. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on the November 4-12 cruise and she was sick then as well. She just stopped in the middle of a song and said she was losing her voice so she was just going to tell jokes instead of singing and playing. Then another night while on stage in the theater before a production show, she was eating a piece of candy while singing and started choking on it and had to leave the stage in the middle of a song. It was very odd. Who eats candy while they are singing in front of a large crowd? I was really not impressed with her at all. The one complaint most people had was that she really didn't know many songs. She would sing maybe half, then trail off and go on to the next one. That's too bad that she can't be depended on to do her job. It's fallen out of fashion in recent years, but I am a firm believer in if you have a job, you need to show up and do it. Sick is sick, but this is clearly a pattern of poor job performance if it is this ongoing. If it is truly an ongoing medical problem, Carnival needs to hire a replacement. That said, she was an amazing performer what little I got to see of her. Maybe she has been taking her days off and learning new material 😆 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I go, I get the lobster benedict for the upcharge. It's been really good, and worth the charge. I tried it once, it was indeed good but I can't justify the cost. The shrimp and grits and crab and avocado sandwich are more reasonable and both very good. I may try one of those again next time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
five. Posted December 4, 2023 #530 Share Posted December 4, 2023 OMG. I was on my own cruise and see this thread now and it's 21 pages long. It'll take a bit for me to catch up. Can you give me a spoiler alert and let me know if the rumor of the Magic's demise was greatly exaggerated or is it to be avoided now? I would hate to read of my beloved ships decline, (it's our favorite ship). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hate to read of my beloved ships decline, (it's our favorite ship). Greatly exaggerated...but I would say there is room for improvement. The food has been absolutely better than recent reports would suggest. With the exception of a sub par Cucina experience the food has been great overall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted December 4, 2023 Author #532 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) Casino annex busier those week. Edited to include correct timer. Mocha chocolate getaway. Went and got my own straw she forgot. Said she'd be right back but after 21+ minutes I didn't feel like waiting longer.

Yum. Cheese grits were off somehow. Not sure what, usually a favorite but they were off their game today. Appreciated the quick service! The 10 top (with 4 people) had not gotten their food yet when I left. Going to grab a coffee and hit the walking track to try and keep up with @princess76021. I actually walk on the treadmill in the afternoon also. I may be 75 but I'm fighting getting old!! Hope you succeed in your endeavors because it's twice as hard when you age!!

Rare jam19872016 Posted December 4, 2023 Author #544 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) That was really cute with Santa coming down the glass elevators. I'll try to get a better angle next week so I can see how coming down. Loaded my vifp freeplay because I saw my favorite machine. It didn't talk to me and tell me it's ready to pay me, but I will be ready when it is 😀 Waiting on dinner at Ocean Plaza.
