Curaçao looks like a really cool port. I love all of the colorful buildings. Your pictures are great!
My kids will really enjoy the ice cream machines on the ship. I will too.
Curaçao was really beautiful and I loved it!
Also, ice cream was really good and I'm not really an ice cream person so you will all love it
Wow, very cool that Canada Day was acknowledged on the ship - love your shirts! That poutine however....I have NEVER seen it made with such huge fries
Adult night at the kids clubs, that's hilarious
Curacao looks like a really cool and colourful port!
Yes, I thought so! Even if only in a small way
I don't mind the huge fries or the moon-sized cheese curds but the gravy-concoction-thing was horrendous
Oh, I've seen poutine with large fries, but it wasn't exactly regular poutine! It was part of a group iniation/scavenger hunt, and we had to find a place with poutine at 5:30am, in downtown Montreal, in January on the coldest day of the year! We ended up finding a breakfast place, which had hash browns (the type that are big square fried chunks, not grated), they pulled out frozen cheese curds from the back, and they had gravy already for breakfast! It actually turned out pretty good, with the hot gravy melting the cheese enough!
LOL! Great story! And it sounds a millions times better than what was on the ship
Wow, what a great port!! We can't cruise due to dh's motion sickness (he has tried every remedy known to man and nothing works for him), but thankfully we do lots of all inclusives, so we can still visit the different islands. Looks lovely!
I feel like I get a bit of the cruise 'feel' through your fabulous writing and pics! I haven't done a cruise since I was a teen, but maybe I can go with friends sometime in the future. LOVING your report!!!
Oh no, really? That sucks
I hope you get to go one day again, I can't even describe it, it is just amazing!
I know!
Bad computer!!
Yes, my thoughts exactly
Well, booo for that , sorry you are having issues with it. For some reason I hadn't seen that you were super busy doing updates, I had a ton to catch up on!!
I'm glad you had something to read.
Sucky computer. Hope all is well with the computer soon. Kira's smile reminds me of this. Such a cutie.

Actually, turns out it wasn't even my computer, it was my monitor
Ha! That's awesome, totally her smile
Indeedy!!!
Thanks to your TR I was able to impress my DH when Aruba came up last night...shared a fact or two and he was amazed I was correct (oh, men...).
See, Disboards are educational Hope the computer gremlins are exorcised soon!
Hahaha, I love it!!!
Just back from a wonderful one week beach camping in beautiful Prince Edward Island... thought, oh I gotta go look for new updates from Cass and sure enough, there they were! You are so good at this. I agree with you and others, that poutine looked really sad and for a minute, I thought I wonder how it tasted... then I read your description! lol! Yeah, they totally missed the memo on brown gravy!
PEI, nice! I would love to visit one day, haven't been east of Montreal I don't think
Yeah, it wasn't good. I am pretty much afraid to try poutine unless I am in Canada
Subscribing! I'll have to go back and start but I can't wait. Here's my TR:

Awesome, I will check it out
WOW on those pics of Curacao! Just beautiful!! Did you and Rob bring a lock to add to the heart? Sweet idea.
No, sadly I didn't even know about that heart or else I totally would have
Great updates! I spy some more ports I need to visit!

Definitely!!!
Wow, stunning sunset shots!!!!
I just pointed and clicked
It took me a few days to find the map on TV too. Once I found it I thought...well duh..of course it is there. hahaha.
I am so made I missed the sunset and I am pretty sure I was up top at that time too. I guess I got talking to someone and never turned around to look.
Yes, it was rather buried, wasn't it!!
Awww, that's too bad! That was my favourite one of the entire cruise
That sunset was amazing!

My thoughts exactly
I was a bout 50/50 with the food. Some things were great and some just ok or not great. I do think that with many things they are not consistent. Claire got steaks every night in Oct and they were good. She said they were all just ok or less this time around. Her best one was at brunch the one day. The plus to me is I am not cooking!!!
And of course good dinner company.
Hmmm, well better than me, I'd say I was 20/80
Yeah, some of her steaks looked rather gross
But yes, I was happy not to cook and loved my lunches at Flo's but you'd think the food would be a little bettter, even than your 50/50. They do such a good job with the Magic and even better with the Wonder but I guess with so many people on the bigger ships the quality just suffers
