Wifi is definitely slowing down again. Those carpet pics took some time to load.

Thank you. I’m afraid I can’t really say I like them. Some of them look worn and some of them look spilt on, and I’m sure they are neither.

They are kind of boring but no not worn just seems like it due to the beige colors.

So far the rain is staying off away from us, or more likely the captain is keeping us away from it. 

 

Deck 4 is closed and the wind I can hear through the window is quite intense.

 

I'll check out the upper decks when I go up for tea time but I imagine they will be closed off as well.

[jam19872016]

Little late opening probably due to weather. Only half is ready so I'll go back up for some sweets when it opens.

 

 

The sign says tuna but I think that is salmon.

Looks like salmon to me.

[jam19872016]

Desserts are open.

It was definitely salmon.

Heading to the gym now.

 

Deck 10 is open, but not 11 or the pools.

Grabbing the suitcase for my mom and my window got hit by a huge wave. My back was turned so I missed it but there was a loud boom and the room was momentarily blacked out.

 

Scared me half to death as I was not expecting it.

Minor tsunamis on the pools, I imagine.

I definitely need the button as it still is not holding a charge even after wiping down the connections.

 

At least it is still under warranty. 

the oh crap button has been deployed!!!

Conditions deteriorated again while I was in the gym. My time on the treadmill included upper body strength training as I hung onto the machine for dear life.

 

The fog horn is blasting again. 

 

The ship is taking quite a beating and the sounds of creaks and shutters have reached a level as to be a little uneasy.  Sure there is nothing to worry about, but those sounds are still unsettling. 

 

Their are deck hands trying to push the water into the drains but they are losing the battle as the final corners of the deck are now covered in water. I've moved back into the solarium.

 

The covered roof in here is not watertight as rain enters inside here as well. One of the panels appears to be blown off, but it may just have been opened on purpose for some reason.

 

The wifi is hanging in though.

I'm sure things are fine.  I'm more concerned with her falling as her balance is already not good.

Here is the gym carpet, dizzying indeed.

Shop vacs have been deployed to try and ease the deck flooding.

Outside pools were drained. Oddly the indoor pool was not and is currently a wave pool 😆.

I guess you can say your last day onboard is interesting. I'm sorry you haven't enjoyed smooth sailing. Hope your mother is doing ok.

It's okay I'm not an outside person anyway. I took a pill first thing this morning and it just kept me from feeling ill.

Giving the casino a go

we had a bad storm on Mercury yrs ago  going back to port thru straits of fl(?)   

 

The ship listed so bad we both fell.out of bed....but the  captain came  on PA in hallway & said stay in rms and remain calm...right!  Glad not in a bunk bed..Tuck your mom in real good and secure the cabin..

 

Next a.m.,   we learned of many broken dishes in mdr.. staff worked all nite to clean up.  The storm caused  slider doors on main deck to malfunction.. open..major floods  on  main decks.

 

We sloshed thru breakfast and carefully wheeled our carry-ons  off the ship..   Big delay for those joining!  

 

Just another cruise adventure! Stay safe!

Sounds like quite the adventure. It's not that bad thankfully. She always hunters down under the covers as I like to keep it quite cold 😆

Went to dinner a little early since there is no effy drawing and I don't need to fill the bar

 

Got my pager and a prosecco.

 

 

[jam19872016]

We threw them off coming at a different time so got a new table. Longer wait than coming just slightly later too.

 

 

The menu.
