Rare jam19872016 Posted September 19 Author #301 Share Posted September 19 We've had amazing weather, sans some rocking night one, but I can see a rain storm rapidly approaching the ship. Glad I am not on shore it looks nasty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted September 19 Author #303 Share Posted September 19 @Itchy&Scratchy if I remember correctly you asked about ping pong last time I was on Reflection and I reported I only found the one in the awkward elevator lobby. Not sure if you have sailed yet but it is no longer in that hallway and instead has been moved to a beautiful location outside near the lawn club, port side opposite the Porch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes however the paperwork delivered said to expect long wait times and shore excursions will have priority. I'll post it when I get back to the room. It does look covered at least, those colorful things in the bottom are covering the waiting area and I did not notice a lot of people waiting, although this was almost noon so likely busier earlier in the morning.

Sailing next weekend and can't wait! It’s a free 25 minute add on. I don’t know if I have the numbers right but I think it was a 75 minute massage at the 50 minute price (or something similar to that). Eric did it this and last cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walking wasn't as bad as it looks. The water is so clear you can see a lot of fish and stingrays while walking the pier. It's a lot quicker than waiting for the tram. And you burn off some of those calories. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, there was nothing worth seeing for her unless you went into town, which would require a taxi or shuttle of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted September 19 Author #313 Share Posted September 19 Lunch was excellent! I tend to struggle with the buffet with miles of mystery stews and cheap cuts of meat and starches. I was very happy with the buffet today as well as last night. I may have to reevaluate my opinion of the food here. The venue is still a miss. With most people on the ship for lunch, the space is simply too small. As a solo diner, I couldn't find anywhere to sit inside and had to eat outside and the drink machines were not able to make ice fast enough to keep up with demand. The machines in the back were working, however. Maybe I will try dinner here again tonight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted September 19 Author #314 Share Posted September 19 I think I am going to skip out on the sauna today since I did not use it in a responsible manner yesterday. Gonna put the tv on and spend the remainder of my afternoon relaxing with a movie! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for remembering me! Yes, we have already sailed, and no, at the time of our sailing the ping pong tables were still inside the elevator lobbies. Both of my boys (hubs and son) played it a lot! We used the area in your photo for chilling and reading books, and at that time there were only a couple of chairs and tables there for lounging.

Could not remember when you said you sailed too bad they did not fix it before you went. Oh well, they at least finally had the good sense to move it to a better location as that was an odd choice for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanut head Posted September 19 #317 Share Posted September 19 What a wonderful trip you are taking us on with great views all around🙃 I was wondering, on Coco Cay, when you went for a walk, is it possible to also run/jog? Is the path end-to-end or is it a circle around the area? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is mostly a circle, with some areas that are perhaps only accessible by tram however I would not say they would be good for running. There are people everywhere and I think it would make it difficult to enjoy a run without having to dodge people. I was alerted to a nature trail on a recent thread and even that was such a tiny area I had trouble navigating for a simple walk with traffic going in both directions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jam19872016 Posted September 19 Author #323 Share Posted September 19 Heading out now. Keeping with the lazy theme of the day I don't have any plans. Maybe a drink at the Sky bar. One last try in the casino and dinner at either the buffet or dining room. I still need to pack, that is never fun on this end of the trip. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted September 19 Author #324 Share Posted September 19 Used my better judgment and stayed out of the casino. Went to future cruise desk instead and spent more money there than I have the casino. Sky lounge now with an apple martini. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jam19872016 Posted September 19 Author #325 Share Posted September 19 Rain storm stayed away...still pretty dark in the distance wonder if we will hit a shower. Apple martini in a massive walking glass before happy hour ends. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
