My wife and I will be the contrarians, we were hoping for rough seas with all the storms on the west coast. We booked a deluxe balcony in the aft hoping to sit out and see some waves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted February 5 Author #79 Share Posted February 5 Well I’d like to say I was at least even…and I did have a run where I built my player bank up to $3500…but alas now I’m stuck $8000. still more time to go; I’m up to 21,000 points now (which is a record high for me; sadly not a record loss…yet) Back in the room now..ordered a big load of room service (last ate at 7). Going to get my grub on and watch either a movie or YouTube. Probably get up around 11, so I can go to the lunch buffet and see what’s good. Then mill around the ship, maybe watch another movie or just sleeeep 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WiFi was good enough to facetime all the way up at the Hubbard Glacier on the Discovery last April.(right after they turned on starlink) speed test numbers won't blow anyone but I haven't had trouble on the Discovery or emerald since starlink was launched. You may get some buffering every now and then. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes; but not in anything close to HD; “360p” was the best I could get without severe chop.(buffering). An iPad screen is about the biggest you’re going to go without it getting grainy. sad to..because before the pandemic; 100% the WiFi was better…but then again..people were “scared” to be without it. (Just my opinion) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted February 5 Author #85 Share Posted February 5 Gotta get up and get cleaned up. Going to hit the lunch buffet (this time I’ll go to the BACK to see the better options! Haha) Afterwards, I may tender into Cabo to see if I can get some deodorant. the weather outside looks absolutely gorgeous..hope to see whales off my balcony. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KarmaCruisers Posted February 5 Author #88 Share Posted February 5 So; I hopped on a tender around 1:45, and headed over to Cabo in search of Deodorant..now; inside the “port” area, there is actually a “pharmacy” that sells a lot of stuff; but all they had was spray deodorant (which I don’t like). so I asked if he had any other ideas who sold stick..and he said maybe OXXO; which was out behind Senor Frogs..on the way though; I passed a LARGE souvenir shop that said “pharmacy” also..I was in luck! Deodorant acquired! For anyone else that needs a good selection of “sundries” products quick at Cabo..definitely recommend this place. Literally across from Senor Frogs. back in the room now; going to watch Bladerunner. (I must comment on the princess movie selection; I can SAFELY say, it’s back to its pre-pandemic awesomeness! A LOT of cool movies to watch..classics and ones that are brand new too!) 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can take the spicyness of these dishes, then if they serve Beef Rendang, try it. It is fantastic. As good as I've had in Singapore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KarmaCruisers Posted February 6 Author #93 Share Posted February 6 Sat down at catch..funny; the gentleman sitting next to me recognized me from the slots..said “how are you doing? I seen you betting pretty good and had money in the machines”..i said “horrible..down $8000” and he said “ohh wow….silicon valley??” And I said; “good call; but still no one wants to lose $8000.” he thought because the other two gentleman that were playing next to me were winning like crazy, I was too..NOOOOPE. also; next to him is @sonomaphiland his wife (keep running into you! Haha) on another note; I noticed on my comp at the hostess desk it said “NO WINE!”..pretty stingy if you ask me, considering when they wrote it I was down $4000. i ordered the lobster appetizer and the “catch of the day” (dorade) here’s the bread plate with spread.. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love playing BJ on the Discovery..here is a funny clip from "las Vegas Vacation" with Chevy Chase at the Mirage Black Jack Table https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=ea470e4985ed4d8d&rlz=1C1CHZN_enUS964US964&q=las+vegas+vacation+chevy+chase+bj+dealers+scene&spell=1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj32ICG-pWEAxWvLEQIHeS0BH0QBSgAegQIBxAC&biw=1920&bih=953&dpr=1#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:6ccbe9e3,vid:cvH34nJ7EFE,st:0 Edited February 6 by gvre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KarmaCruisers Posted February 6 Author #97 Share Posted February 6 Jeeeeeze! so I went to the casino after catch, at 9:30…annnnd I didn’t leave until 3am! I didn’t even realize I was there that long!!! the good news, I FINALLY got a dang handpay (lol aces for $1207) The couple playing the dragon links were still there..and STILL absolutely crushing it hitting handpays ($1200+ every few minutes) just absolutely insane…I guess both ends of the spectrum..if you’d of told me I’d lose $10,000 playing no bigger than $10 spins, in 2.5 days..I’d of called you a liar..but if you’d of also told me this couple would hit close to $100k worth of jackpots in the same timeframe, I’d of equally not believed you… Anyway..here’s my “jackpot” photo 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW! What’s going on, on this cruise!? EDIT: I myself cracked over 30,xxx last night. Which is CRAZY for me; because I don’t think I’ve ever got over 10,xxx points!
