Tour of our Sky Junior Suite

Welcome to our Sky Junior Suite!  We got upgraded from a regular Junior Suite just a couple of weeks ago. This class of suite has "Sky privileges," which include access to the Suites Lounge and Coastal Kitchen for all meals. 

Here's our door with the magnets Charlie designed.  Note the new addition of the map on the right showing all the places we've cruised so far. (It's from the Cruise Globe app.)

Here's a better look at the map:


We were surprised to receive this heavy glass memento last night, signifying 210 cruise points -- which we'll reach and surpass on this trip.  We received another one last fall featuring Liberty of the Seas.

Here's a view of our room. 


I spend most of my time in the room on the blue sectional. Not super-comfy, but I can put my feet up!

We have two bathrooms -- sort of.  One has a tub and a shower and sink, but no toilet. The other one has just a toilet and sink.  The shower is GREAT, with plenty of water pressure. The bathrooms also have premium brands of shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel, as well as body lotion. 

The shower is opposite the tub -- and impossible to photograph!

Here's the half-bath.

There's a lot of storage -- we have empty drawers after unpacking everything. An espresso machine and an electric tea pot are provided.


Charlie's corner

The balcony is large, but it has been too chilly to sit outside much so far. As we travel south, we expect to use it more.  

We're on Deck 13, conveniently positioned directly behind the elevators and near the stairs. We can walk up one flight to Coastal Kitchen (and Windjammer) or down one flight to the Suites Lounge.

Alas, this is only "home" until we get to Hawaii, then we'll move to a regular Junior Suite for the longer cruise to Sydney. That's it for the room tour!

Ice Skating and Sushi

Image
Yesterday afternoon, we went to the ice-skating show, which was Tarot-themed. Costumed skaters portrayed the Lovers, the Empress, the Joker, etc.  We were as impressed with their skills as we were with the skaters’ on the Wonder in March. Lots of fancy spins, lifts, and jumps! Charlie told me that our ship (Voyager, launched in 1999) was the first in Royal Caribbean’s fleet to have an ice performance rink. There are servers who bring you drinks, so Prosecco it was!  We had reservations at Chops Grille for dinner, and we enjoyed our meal as the sun set. We both tried the appetizer crab cake (not as good as Charlie’s), the lobster bisque (okay), then petite filets with baked potatoes and asparagus. Once again, we failed to capture a pic of the excellent chocolate cake with ice cream.  As I mentioned yesterday, ship’s time moved ahead another hour, but so far we’re adjusting all right. We did have some loud noises overnight from the pool deck on the deck above ours. It sound...

Off to a Good Start!

Yesterday we left home for our next adventure, back-to-back cruises out of Los Angeles.  We managed to pack lightly, so for the next two weeks I’m going to look like some slight variation of this: Waiting for the elevator Our driver was waiting when we went downstairs, and due to the 4:30 p.m. traffic, took us a VERY circuitous route to the airport. That took about an hour. We got through Security with zero line — although Charlie did get pulled for a “random” bag check.  We went to the Cadillac Mexican restaurant and enjoyed margaritas and snacks until it was almost time to board.  We were the first two to board — no people needing assistance, no Concierge members — so we got settled into our bulkhead seats and were soon sipping some sparkling wine while boarding continued.  We departed at 8 p.m.  I read most of the 3.5 hour trip, finishing a book shortly before landing.  Unfortunately, our plane landed at the remote terminal, which required a short wait f...

Tuesday, Day 3, Fjords Cruise

Image
Today is another sea day, on our way to Molde, the northern-most port on this cruise.  Here’s where we were about 11:00 this morning: As you might expect, it’s chilly and windy outside, and the morning was very gray.  But we have blue skies this afternoon. Last night we met the Kimbros at Giovanni’s Table for a nice dinner. I chose the garlic shrimp served over mashed potatoes as my entree, and it was delicious. My dessert was the chocolate-hazelnut cake, also yummy. This morning we had breakfast in Chops Grille, then spent time in the suites lounge, mostly to give our room attendant a chance to clean our room.  We met Rachel for the afternoon ice show, and she took some great photos of the amazing skaters. Waiting for the ice show to begin  Tonight’s dinner will be at Chops Grille. Tomorrow morning we dock early at Molde. Rachel and Rob are planning a hike, and we’ll explore the town on our own.  More tomorrow!
