Rare pirate4me2 Posted June 10 Author #106 Share Posted June 10 Where did I leave off yesterday? Chris and I basically bar hopped all afternoon…went to the Red Frog Pub and made friends with Diana, then proceeded to Alchemy and met Mirela, Janko, and Isa. I was suprised that Alchemy wasn’t busier, we easily got seats. From there we went to Cucina for dinner, and it was SO GOOD. That bread….yum! The calamari was crispy and the marinara had excellent flavor. Chicken parm was so good, I ate way too much of it! And the cookie dessert…yum! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted June 10 Author #107 Share Posted June 10 Marty and Gary came by while we were at Alchemy, and they are both so nice. I like seeing the CD out and about mingling with guests. After way too many drinks, we called it a day about 10. I’m feeling a little worse for wear today, so don’t expect many pretty drink pictures…I think it’s gonna be a rehydration day for me! We are currently waiting for a table for brunch, I need to get something in my belly. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted June 10 Author #108 Share Posted June 10 For some reason yesterday and today neither mine nor Chris’s Hub app is working to check us in for meals. It’s weird. We came down to the restaurant and they checked us in manually, but I guess we will be going to Guest Services after we eat to see what’s up. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app and it’s still being wonky. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knights on the Beach Posted June 10 #109 Share Posted June 10 Your dinner last night looks delicious!!! Marty is so friendly and interacts so well with everyone. Several times during our B2B, he walked over to us to see how we were doing. And the Captain gave Mark an Italian language lesson one morning at Ocean Plaza Bar. 🤣 11 minutes ago, pirate4me2 said: For some reason yesterday and today neither mine nor Chris’s Hub app is working to check us in for meals.

We sailed with Gary in 2019 so I was excited to see him listed as being onboard this week too, and I think he will be great when he takes the reins over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted June 10 Author #111 Share Posted June 10 Guest Services couldn't figure out the Hub app issue, so they put in a message to their technical team. They tried uninstalling and redownloading again to make sure we have the correct version, and still no luck. I guess we may be manually checking in for any meals in the MDR this week. isn’t it funny how we get use to technology, and then when it doesn’t work and we go back to doing things the “old way” we realize how spoiled we have gotten? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pirate4me2 Posted June 10 Author #112 Share Posted June 10 Brunch was good, although lately I seem to be having cruddy luck with eggs Benedict…they’re always overcooked. Oh well, I’m certainly not going to go hungry. No Diamond luncheon this sailing, we have a cocktail party instead. My head and tummy aren’t quite sure how they feel about that, lol, I think I’ll be drinking Diet Pepsi. I’m disappointed I don’t get to try the yummy luncheon menu I’ve seen on previous reviews, I guess I’ll have to wait until our December sailing to experience it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, without further ado, I introduce to you all Lily (black), Latte (big white stripe down her face), Princess (Hershey brown with a star), and my spicy redhead Flirt. Flirt is the only one who is really mine, the rest are my mom’s, although since Flirt was so sick I’ve kinda taken over Lily for my riding horse. 😍THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!

Now, I know I should be grateful the insurance company is allowing us to take it on the trip, but darn it…why’s it gotta be a Ford? First world problem I know, but we are Dodge people. So I’m saying this prayer before the trip: Dear Lord, please give us safe travels to FL. We’ve had enough bad luck with vehicles, and even tho Geico had the nerve to “grace” us with this lowly Ford, we are grateful. Give this hunk of aluminum the strength and power to transport us safely and efficiently to and from our destination, and then it can die in the Enterprise parking lot upon our return. Amen. Sorry any Ford people out there…I was raised in a die-hard Chevy family, and when I decided to rebel and bought a Ford, it was the only vehicle to leave me stranded…more than once! After that I went to a Chevy, which I loved, but when it was time to replace it I fell in love with Red, my old Dodge. I test drove a Chevy and Red, and, well, you know who won. I loved that truck, and cried when I traded her in for Maze. But anyway…this post has gotten off track. It was just meant to say, the Hubs is packing the truck up, and tomorrow is travel day! Yahoo! Cross your fingers, toes, eyes, and whatever else that the Ford gets us to our destination safely! hopefully this one will redeem FORDs for you!

Rare pirate4me2 Posted June 10 Author #119 Share Posted June 10 This afternoon is consisting of a whole lotta nothing. Just existing. I honestly may still be drunk from last night. 😂 I have zero motivation. Chris and I have been hanging out in the Havana pool since we left the Diamond cocktail reception at noon. That was a nice little gathering, maybe 25-30 people. They had cocktails and little nibbles (sushi, spring rolls, mozzarella bites, mini lobster roll, fruit cups) and the senior officers came by and spoke to everyone. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that sounds like a nice event but why have a cocktail reception at 11:30 am? You'd think they could have at least had it in the afternoon. And there's nothing wrong with doing a whole lot of nothing! We did plenty of that in April. 😂 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
