It may depend on what you’re doing. if you’re going to see the carpenters or something it may be pretty comfortable… but front row for a metal show where you move it you lose it applies….its pretty rough in August. Sammy Hagar and Loverboy. It’ll be worth it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruises42 Posted August 14 #577 Share Posted August 14 Have you seen the Northern Lights? There have been many pictures posted on Sunday and Monday from many states (even South Carolina and Tennessee) and quite a few from various places in Alaska. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is hot here in good old Dallas/Fort Worth. But when I think of how hot & humid it was in Key West last month, the weather here is not so bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well worth it. @Saint Greg Amazing pictures so far. My wife was recently in Norway and I see a lot in common in the photos. Such beauty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #581 Share Posted August 14 I think I left off somewhere around here. I let guest services know last night about the internet problem. I mean I really just needed it for two days and yesterday was one of them which was useless. I told them I’d be fine canceling it, using my ATT until the last sea day, then, using my 150 free mins on the sea day. We’ll see what happens. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #582 Share Posted August 14 This video is worth watching. A lot of information about Alaska. It’s technically the excursion selling presentation but it isn’t too much of that. She did mention both of my bear tours saw bears last week so I’m hopeful. I know I pick the right time of year for it. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare TxTeach79 Posted August 14 #584 Share Posted August 14 Love the Jewel class promenade. The aft wrap around is one of my two favorite spots on the ship, that and Great Outdoors. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #585 Share Posted August 14 I’m tying some of the drinks of the day. The first one is the banana rum one. The second is the cool cucumber one. Later on I’ll try the mai tai. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #587 Share Posted August 14 I got those Heinekens to take to lunch. I thought they were going to be glass bottles because I saw some in the fridge. Turns out those were the nonalcoholic ones. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #589 Share Posted August 14 I’m trying to order some different items. I know I had the cottage pie last year. It was good but I’m trying the risotto today. Also got Cobb salad, hush puppies. For dessert I asked for the server recommendation. It was the mouse 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always wondered about these, especially with the push to sustainability. None of the cocktails jumped out at me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #594 Share Posted August 14 The veterans event is in the spinnaker at 12:30. This is a bigger more private area than last year. Last year it was in the wide open lounge everyone just walks by. Bliss I think. Same CD as last year. She’s okay. None of the crazy outfits, wild party hosting, or comedy that you get from carnival CDs. But maybe it’s just the Alaska itinerary they brought around small bites. It looked like spoons of some crab thing. I passed since I just ate lunch. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #595 Share Posted August 14 The have a glass wall so you can’t walk in front of that spinnaker lounge it’s their nice indoor viewing area on this ship so they keep it where the views can’t be blocked. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #596 Share Posted August 14 I believe this is we that croissant mai tie Back in the spinnaker for the future cruise presentation. This drinking monkey business. It’s pretty good. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 14 Author #597 Share Posted August 14 The guy was telling a bunch of Philippines jokes on that Asian cruise slide and I was the only one laughing so I’m guessing these are mostly new cruisers. Things like NCL has been avoiding going there because then who is going to work on the ship. And there was 100 million people there but now there’s only 50 because the rest are on the ship. 2 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ninjacat123 Posted August 14 #598 Share Posted August 14 (edited) That Screwball PeanutButter Whiskey is pretty good and does taste like PeanutButter!! I'd like to try that and the rum with the Banana frapped up with vanilla ice cream! Edited August 14 by ninjacat123 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
