I can’t believe that with as many times as we have sailed, my wife was never aware of these. I guess the women’s rooms don’t have art. We Californians have a special appreciation for men's restrooms... Nice to see the Oasis class bathrooms still have interesting artwork to keep you occupied instead of staring at a blank wall. They had interesting artwork on the Allure as well Enjoy your cruise. Hopefully, the storm approaching Florida will have no impact on your vacation . 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The largest cruise ship in the world at the time, but no comparison to Utopia. Oh how far have we come from this to Utopia 😱 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we flew back from California a couple months ago, we noticed how often one of the off site shuttles came by as we waited four our hotel shuttle. So we decided to give Fast Park and Relax a try when we traveled to Myrtle Beach. I was surprised how quick and easy this was, and it was half the cost of airport parking. We pre booked our parking reservation. For anyone flying from Pittsburgh, I highly recommend them. The kids were amused that the driver’s name was Ricky. PIT is a disaster zone right now! Park & Fly is a great recommendation or at minimum pre reserve parking. Especially for extended (cheapo) parking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being in Miami waiting for the luggage on the carousel. My first bag showed up early but it seemed like forever before my second bag showed up. I would have been worried that the bag did not make it but my phone showed the bag was in baggage area close to me. Finally it came out on carousel. I will never forget having to show the Air Canada agent my iphone so I could tell THEM exactly where my lost bags were at the Toronto airport. Thx to my air tags. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on deck 15 when they started sail away, then we all moved to our balcony. We were on the port side, so you wouldn’t have seen us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to catch up on your thread later. That artwork is always interesting. My grandson has been going by the motto of “Never pass us an opportunity “ Some more artwork. You just have to find them unoccupied to take the photos, so you don’t have someone wondering why you are filming I. The men’s room. Told my grandson he should do a review on men’s rooms. 🤣🤣 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say it was late enough in the day that I didn’t remember that drink, but then I remembered it was supposed to be a Lime and Coconut. They must have a new recipe, because it isn’t like any I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so disenchanted with flying at the moment that we are driving to FL for family vacation next Friday. Of course i’ll be stopping in nashville and doing some bourbon hunting along the way in KY. 🥃 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my one grandson and his dad did the express slide from deck 16 to deck 6. They said it was fun. Haven’t convinced any of them to do the zip line yet. My granddaughter says she would, but she doesn’t weigh enough. She is definitely the daredevil of the bunch. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted August 3 Author #143 Share Posted August 3 (edited) So how about a copy of the 3 day cruise compass before I continue? cruisecompassU1.pdf I still love that you can save these pdf versions instead of taking a picture with your phone. We did get a paper copy for day two, but the other two cabins didn’t. Must be we crossed that age appropriate threshold.

Rare h20skibum Posted August 3 Author #144 Share Posted August 3 As we were exploring the ship with so, and looking for our third lunch of the day, we ended up in Solarium Bistro. There choices were better than a normal cruise. Must be leftovers from the inaugural. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted August 3 Author #147 Share Posted August 3 I am not sure what the fascination with monkeys is on this ship. Guess more research is needed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted August 3 Author #148 Share Posted August 3 It appears that D+ gives you a couple more amenities Since we turned D+ on the last cruise, we just got our pins on this one. These ones we got on this cruise look so cheap. I was hoping for ones with the two chips. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted August 3 Author #149 Share Posted August 3 Dinner tonight was the MDR. We had our standard of prime rib and cheese cake. The kids were glad we didn’t have to wait on a bill. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted August 3 Author #150 Share Posted August 3 Not exactly a second dinner, but the kids wanted to check out the Windjammer restaurant. What a huge improvement over the other Oasis class ships. A few photos from there. Donuts, anyone? and more donuts Deserts! Everyone’s favorites They even had @A&L_Ont Andrew’s favorites 🤣 1 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
