Rare Jamman54 Posted February 13 Author #501 Share Posted February 13 Afterwards, I went to the casino to pick up our free play that we had won, and sat down to play some blackjack. Patti went to check out the Towel Folding demonstration. There were quite a few people there…… Patti got herself a nice seat with a table along the glass up on Deck 7 for the $5,000 Jackpot Bingo….. Unfortunately, she did not win. She made her way back to the cabin where she found today’s towel animal….. Patti hung out on the balcony for a while taking in the afternoon sea views…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 13 Author #502 Share Posted February 13 I played blackjack for a couple of hours losing $100, but it was all the free play money. I was feeling hungry so I went to Sea Dogs and grabbed a couple of Chorizo’s with mustard and peppers, and took them back to the Tides Bar. Suresh kept the Cruisers coming, and at some point Sid joined me. He grabbed something from Big Chicken, and we had a couple more drinks there. We then made our way down to the Watering Hole for some Watermelon Crushes. Sid tried to take the infamous mirror shots, but the mirrors were filthy! These pictures are courtesy of Sid….. After a couple of drinks here, we move inside to the Pig & Anchor Bar. Who do I find hanging out and drinking with Heather, Peter, Amy, and Megan? Patti! You go girl! We had a couple of drinks and then went back to the cabin where I took a nap. When I woke up the sun was just setting…… Tonight we’re having dinner with Pat & Jim at Fahrenheit 555….. Table setting….. Here are Patti and I…… The Chefs are hard at work….. Bread plates…. I don’t remember what the amuse bouche was, but it was pretty good…..

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 13 Author #503 Share Posted February 13 Here are some of the appetizers. The jumbo shrimp cocktail….. Tuna tartare….. Lobster bisque….. Stuffed mushrooms….. Patti had the lobster tail with a baked potato….. I had the spice rubbed ribeye with mashed potatoes and sautéed mushrooms….. For dessert Jim had the chocolate sphere, and the rest of us had the apple torte….. It was a great meal! At this point I had come down with the cruise crud and I wasn’t feeling so well, so Patti and I went back to the cabin. She had some medicine for me which began helping right away. The laundry that Patti sent out this morning has been returned….. Here is today’s Cheers tally: Patti (4), Jeff (15), for a total of (19). That’s (+7) for today, and now we are (+1) for the cruise. Yep, I was able to max out today, even though I wasn’t feeling well towards the end of the day. Hopefully, Patti’s medicine chest will keep me in the game tomorrow! Coming up next: This Tribe cruise is coming to a close, but the shenanigans keep on coming! 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Cruiser27 Posted February 13 #504 Share Posted February 13 Another great read and the food porn. One thing I haven't done was max out on the drink package on Princess (15). Wait, did I just say that. 🤣 🤣 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyJA Posted February 13 #505 Share Posted February 13 I had been hitting my medicine cabinet hard and was able to make it through the day pretty well with a little help from some liquid medicine. Tonight, Pam and I are hitting The Chef Table. 14 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyJA Posted February 13 #508 Share Posted February 13 (edited) I want to say thanks to @sid_9169 for asking about allergies at The Chef Table months in advance. I have a few. There were six items that they had to adjust. I always feel kind of bad that they must go extra for me. But the chefs did a great job of keeping me safe. The mushroom and white chocolate truffle turned into a pumpkin truffle. When they served me an alternative appetizer, that I could have eaten, I whispered this fact to Pam. The chef came and asked me if there was something wrong. There is no way he could have heard me. But he did see me. (sigh, sorry) I explained my weird intolerance, and all was OK. This mini loaf is made on board. I want one or two of those right now! Steak Tartare: not covered in mushrooms. Yellow carrots instead. Chicken instead of shrimp. The last sweet course had four items. Two had been switched out for a couple of wonderfully delish treats. Edited February 13 by AmyJA 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seas today are flat calm….. Here are the final Fun Times of the cruise….. Patti went up to the Marketplace for breakfast, and then went back to the cabin to begin her packing.

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 13 Author #514 Share Posted February 13 I was soon joined by Pat & Jim, Vic, and then Sid showed up with another duck that he had found to give to Patti. Thanks again Sid! At 10am I met Patti at the Grand Spectrum Theater for “The Wave” Morning show hosted by Lee, Louis, and the Bingo Host, whose name I forget….. They are joined on stage by Abraham who is the Watch Guy on board….. The end of the show…… To be continued…… 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyJA Posted February 14 #517 Share Posted February 14 Well after last night’s fancy meal, us steerage ladies are going to visit the main dining room to get breakfast. I liked the bobble tree in the middle of the sparkly stairs. Tomatoa would love it too. Shiny, like a treasure………… We wandered outside to see the rope course. They are cleaning it off after some rain and it will be opening soonish. So, we head down to steerage to put on closed toe shoes where we find Ellie saying goodbye to us. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyJA Posted February 14 #519 Share Posted February 14 The wind is picking up, but it’s my turn to try it out while Pam man’s the pictures. I get five to five people away from being hooked up and they stop the course because of the wind. What to do? What to do? Get a drink or two?

Rare Jamman54 Posted February 14 Author #522 Share Posted February 14 I played blackjack for a couple hours winning a couple hundred dollars in the process. I went to Sea Dogs for a couple of sausages with mustard and peppers, and then made my way to the Tides Bar, where I had a couple of Cruisers with Suresh. I then went back to the cabin to begin my packing. Patti was there hanging out on the balcony. Here is our last towel creation from Saung….. We’ve got our VIFP Party invites but we’re just going to blow it off…. Here are some late afternoon balcony views….. At 5pm we made our way down to the Red Frog Tiki Bar for one last get together with some of the members of the Tribe….. What a fantastic group of people! We hope to sail with each and every one of you again in the near future! Patti and I decided to have dinner at the Marketplace tonight. Here are our plates….. Afterwards, we made our way down to Celebration Central to see The Most Magnificent Circus. We weren’t able to get seats on the floor, so we decided to just call it a cruise and head back to our cabin. The cruise crud was kicking my butt again. We tracked down our Cabin Attendant Saung to thank her for a job well done, and to give her a little token of our appreciation…… We finalized our packing and put our bags out in the hall. This is always a sad picture….. So here’s the final Cheers tally: Patti (3), Jeff (11), so (+2) for today, and (+3) for the cruise, meaning we came out a little ahead of the game. We plan on getting Cheers for our B2B cruises on the Vista in April for further research. Lol. Coming up next: We sadly debark the Carnival Celebration and head to Orlando. 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyJA Posted February 14 #524 Share Posted February 14 Unlike Jeff and Pattie, we do not blow off the VIFP party. We really don’t belong but Megan invited Pam and I to attend. I ain’t blue but I’m pretty close to. IMG_0927.MP4 12 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenatorsFan Posted February 14 #525 Share Posted February 14 (edited) It was great to get together one last time! What a wonderful group of people the Tribe are.
